County Bar Resolutions.

The committee appointed by the
Obion County Bar at it's regular
meeting a few days ago to draft
suitable resolutions upon the death
of their fellow lawyer, Hon. w. P.
Caldwell, reported Monday last and
the report, which was adopted
unanimously and which has been
placed upon the minutes OF the cir
cult court, is as follows.
WILLIAM PARKER CALDWELL.
Col. w. P. Caldwell was born
November the 8, 1882, and died at
his residence IN Gardner June Z,
1903, being 70 years, 6 months and
% days of age.
He was born and reared in Weak
ley county, Tenn, where he was
married and where he resided dur
ing his whole lite. He finished his
literary education at Princeton
College, Princeton, Ky. graduated
from the law department at Cum
berland University at Lebanon,
Tenn, and began the practice of
his chosen profession early in life
at Dresden, Tenn, and during his
whole professional life was an hon
ored member of the bars of Weakley
and Obion counties.
Early in life he was honored by
those who knew him best as a rep
resentative in the lower house of the
State Legislature and later in life
by seat in the State Senate and
the halls of the United States Con-
gress, and frequently selected by
his brother members of the bar as a
special Judge, in all of which posi-
lions his conduct and department
was such as to reflect honor and
credit upon himself as we'll as upon
those who honored him.
AS judge of law, he had but few
equals in the bar where he practic-
ed and no superiors, and as a law
yer, he was honest in all of his deal
1ngs with his clients and his fellow
members of the bar. For many
years he had an office in Obion
county and was infinitely associat-
ed in the practice of his profession
with the lawyers of Obion county,
which relation was mutually very
pleasant. His whole life has truly
exemplified all the virtues requisite
to the make up of an honorable,
courteous and upright gentleman.
Whether at the bar battling for
the interests of his clients, upon
the bench holding the scales of JUS
tice, in the General Assembly OF the
State or in the halls OF Congress,
legislating for his constituents, in
his law Office or the private circle of
his own happy family. Col. Cald-
well was the same courteous, kind
hearted and congenial spirit which
characterized his whole life. AS a
statesman, lawer and as a private
citizen, the State of Tennessee, the
bar and the community has sus-
tanned an irreparable loss.

Mrs. Sarah Kennedy.

The death of this well-known
lady occurred at her home near Jor-
dan in Fulton County last Thurs
day, the 25th ult. Mrs. Kennedy
suffered from a wounded arm, re-
sulting in blood poison and death.
AS Miss Francis Perry, she was
born in Shelby County, Ky, March
81, 1912, and on January II, 1860,
was married to VIM. B. Kennedy.
Five children were born to them,
two of whom are dead. OF the 1iv.
ing there are two daughters and
one son. One of these is Mrs. VIM
Nash. The family held a promi-
nent place in the affairs of the
neighborhood and the affections of
the people. Mrs. Kennedy's home
was always pleasant and hospit-
able abiding place and many happy
memories cling around the
hearthstone. She was full of de-
votion to her christianity and those
with whom she dwelt. She was a
member OF the Baptist church, true
to every duty and loyal to every
trust. This good woman leaves a
noble heritage.
The remains were laid to rest at
Liberty churchyard, services con.

DEATH RECORD.
]. D. KERSEY.

The death of this well-known

Young Man Promoted.

1t is always, by far, much more
pleasant task for a newspaper man
to have an opportunity to say pleas
ant thing about a person than to
chronicle some OF his misdeeds or
shortcomings. More pleasant to
make mention of a success than to
speak of a failure. More pleasant to
say kind word than to indulge in a
"roast." Such pleasure presents
itself today to the Journal Miner, to
chronicle the success of a bright,
energetic young man, who while not
native of Prescott, came here iuNhis
early childhood, has grown through
his period of boyhood into young
manhood in this city, and among our
people, and is well known to all. His
name is G. w. Herndon, son of Mr.
and Mrs. j. c. Herndon, most worthy
and estimable people, and the par
ticular happy event, of which it is
the Journal-Miner's pleasure to
speak, is his becoming a member of
the law firm of Herndon Il Norris,
one of the leading firms of attorneys
in Arizona, and to be a member of
which is an honor of which any
young man may we'll take a PARDON
able pride. May the young man ever
prove worthy of the honor, and as
time progresses may he add addi-
tional honor to the firm.

The Autos Are Here.

The latter part of last April the
Samuel Hill Hardware company took
the agency for the famous Oldsmobile
automobiles, and an order for a car
load of the machines was at once
placed with the company at Detroit,
Michigan. On account of the ire
mendous demand for the machines in
the east the company has been unable
to fill the entire order but shipped
two machines which were already
sold, the purchasers being o. \. Hesla
and Frank Foster, and these machines
arrived in Prescott Tuesday night, but
they were not unloaded until today
on account of the rain. They will be
put in shape for service at once and
will be in active use in a couple of
days, the demonstration, Mr.. Burnett,
having arrived from the Tucson
agency today to give the boys a start
and teach them to operate the ma
chimes.
The Oldsmobile is undoubtedly the
best machine on the market as the
great demand for them has shown.
The factory is now finishing a ma
chine every fifteen minutes or between
thirty and forty per day, and yet are
months behind with their orders. The
machines just received here contain
the very latest improvements and are
the acme of simplicity and durability
and fitted specially for a mountainous
section. They are what is known as
the five horse power runabouts.

Our Summer Rain Storm.

Yesterdays rain storm seemed tC
have been general. Advices received
by the railroad company we're to The
effect that the rain had extended all
along the line from Ash Fork to Phe-
nix. Rain commenced falling in Phe-
nix early in the morning and contin,
ued for several hours the precipita-
ton being unsuually large.
4 popularity of the rain was the
fact that it was unaccompanied by
thunder and lightning something that
the "oldest inha bitant' never remem-
bers seeing in this section during the
summer rainy season.
During the afternoon of Wednesday
in Prescott the rain fell for about two
hours during which great volumes OF
water ran in the streets, and there
was neither thunder, lightning or
wind accompanying it. The same
conditions are reported from other
points.
At IL O'Clock this morning a tele-
gram was received from Ash Fork
stating that a storm bordering on a
cloud burst had struck that section
and that sidewalks were floating on
the streets. At the time the telegram
was sent, it was still raining.
A heavy storm was also reported
from Kirkland and Skull valleys
about noon.
Considerable damage to hay and
ripened grain we're reported from Phe-
nix.
