mer months, in addition to riding the
horses of William c.. Whitney abroad

Croker, the master of Vantage. Mr..
Croker has secured second call on the

fairly good luck, as in the eX-Tammany-
ties stable are some very good thorough
breds Mr.. Croker will have about eight
horses in active training. Two of these
are in charge of John Higgins at New
market. The others will be trained at
Mr.. CrokerS' own place. He purchased
this season two of the most highly tried
two-year olds In England and great hopes
are entertained of their success next year
in the several classical events for which
they are eligible. The Croker stable has
had heretofore considerable i'll luck, prob
ably due in some measure to poor meth
DDS of training With Higgins handling
two of the best of the string, the others Rs
pilot them, there is every prospect of a
good season in 1903.

REsoLuT1oNs OF RESPECT.

RESOLUTIONS OF RESPECT.
Whereas death has again cast its
shadow and icy fingers upon one Of
our highly beloved and most worthy
members of the Obion County Court,
]. A. Suddarth, who was summoned
to quit the walks of men and 60 in
to the eternal beyond on March "a,
1902. Esquire Suddarth enjoyed
the confidence and respect of all his
friends and acquaintance. He was
a quiet and very unassuming gentle
man, out firm and conscientious in
all of his convictions of right and
justice. He was kind, courteous
and respectful IN his daily walk and
conversation in lite. He was a
good neighbor, a respected citizen
and an honorable and upright JUS
tice OF the Peace. While he may
have had some human frailties and
weakness in his nature, yet we real
ize that such is human and that we
are all liable to error in our lives
here, and that the world has been
blessed and benefited in some way
by the lite of this good and useful
citizen. Some kind word, precept,
or example of this noble character
may long remain fresh in the mind
of others to lead them onward and
upward to a higher, better and
purer life. He was loyal and faith
full in the discharge of his official
duties. Recognizing the fact that
he has outstripped lis and gone INTO
the great and beautiful beyond only
little Ill advance of us we should
try the more earnestly to so conduct
ourselves in this life, as that wien
we are called hence we can 60 pre-
pared in peace to meet our dear
friend and beloved member in the
city of our God.
Be itresolved, That in his depart
ure from this world we recognize
the hand of God in the work, and
he is too wise to err and too good
to do wrong, and we humbly bow
our wills to his sovereign mandate.
Resolved, That we tender our
deepest sympathy and heartfelt con-
dolence to all of his relatives and
friends who mourn his death. Our
loss may be only his gain, and hence
we should strive the greater to meet
him in Joy and peace on the heaven
ly shore.
Resolved, That a copy of this re-
port be spread upon the minutes of
the court, and that a copy of the
same be furnished the family of the
deceased.
Most respectfully submitted by
your committee.
