In Memory Of Mrs. Elizabeth Wicker.

D.
The messenger of death has again
visited the home of Mr.. Monroe Wick
er, and taken the dear old mother,
Mrs. Elizabeth Wicker. 1t was great
shock to the community. She leaves
two children and three daughters and
host of grandchildren to mourn her
departure. It has been the writer's
pleasure to converse with her on re-
ligious topics, and I have every assur-
ance that she died trusting in her
Divine Saviour. She had many friends
that will miss the cheerful face, her
seat at her church as now unoccupied,
and the vacant chair now at home is
set aside. "Mother is no more"
Friends do not weep, she is sweetly
resting in the arms of Jesus. She has
been a member Of the church, and liv-
ing Christian for IS years, surely she
is at peace. She had no fear OF the
sting of death, and now she is reaping
her just reward, with Jesus and his
heavenly host, and will be waiting for
her loved ones to come.
How peaceful the slumber. How
happy the waking, for death was only
a dream. 3.

The news of the death OF Mr.. J. D.
Campbell, official stenographer OF the
Seventh circuit, was received in New
berry on last Monday with deep regret
Mr.. Campbell during his service in this
position had made many warm friends
in Newberry. Personally we liked and
esteemed him, and always looked for
ward with pleasure to his coming
among US.
His presence will be missed at the
Newberry courts, and the place which
he had won in the esteem of his friends
in Newberry will be hard to fill.
The article published in our last
issue was mistaken in saying that Mr..
Campbell was the first stenographer OF
this circuit. He succeeded Mr.. W. A.
Laws, now president of the Spartan
burg National Bank, who was the first
stenographer, and filed the position
most acceptably.
