Mr.. II. II. Hayley came in from
his home in Coke county yester-
day to look after preparations
for the forthcoming reunion. He
reports heavy rains in that coun-
try, and states that ne never saw
anything like it before. Two
tanks on his place, four years
old, failed to withstand the tor
rents of water, his we'll curb was
washed off and the water came
near reaching his door, which is
some two feet above ground. He
says it was the first time he ever
really began to get scared of high
water. Mr.. Hayley is very much
encouraged over the crop out
look, and says Coke is going to
make more cotton than at any
time in its history. Indications
are that the yield will equal that
of 1900 and the acreage is much
greater. The milo maize and sor-
ghum, that was planted in the
corn fields, is growing fine and
promises to furnish great deal

G. L., son of Silas lizard, July
2Sth, 1902.
Six feet under ground, in Fair
mount cemetery, lies a little cas-
ket containing the tiny form of
the infant son of Silas lizard.
BY his side sleeps the mother, for
the gates of life are the gates of
death. Twelve days agone she
held the babe only to say fare
we'll. Now, both are behind that
black curtain that hides the
arcana of the future, and whose
thickness no mortal eyes ma y
penetrate gone from the my site
past into the mystic future, and
in deaths presence hushed must
be the grief.
Weep not for death,
IT'S but fever stilled
A pain Suppressed-a fear at rest
A solemn hope fulfilled.
The moonshine on the slumbering
deep
So scarcely calmer, wherefore weep,
Weep not for death!
The fount OF tears Is sealed.
Who knows how bright the inward
light
To those closed eyes revealed?
Who knows what holy light may fill
The heart that seems so cold and still?
In deaths presence hushed
must be the grief. The mother
was loved. How happy, then, to
have loved her so long. And the
child had never even touched the
rust of this corruptible life.
Child and mother, types of pure
love and perfect unselfishness
clasped hand in hand, as it were,
passed from mysterious darkness
to mysterious darkness. Not
only do they pass, but in the
memories of those nearest and
dearest, they pass free from
stain, with faults aforementioned.
They pass, leaving pure, true,
never ending influences. The
last memory Is that of the moth
er bending over the pure face OF
the child, and the memory of the
child entered her heart as she
whispered FAREWELL" and van.

through the impenetrable curtain
and the child followed the beck

Fair vision! A mother and {

and perfect truthfulness, beauti

freedom. AS the one is evel

As the one is devoted to it's charge
