While the last rays of the sun
were casting their shadows over tho
hills on last Friday, tho dark.winged
angel of death cast q deeper shadow
OF gloom ond sorrow over tho home
and hearts of our Brother Mcdaniel
and his children by claiming for the
Reaper their beloved wife aud moth
er, Mrs. J. II. G. Mcdaniel. Her
life's labor WAS done and her Father
was ready to welcome hor to the
mansion prepared for her above. He
had called aud sho must answer. He
knows best and whilo the hearts of
her loved ones arc torn and bleeding
because of the sundetins of these
earthly ties, and they feel that this
chastoniug is hard to boar, we point
thom to the promises of him who
never fails. He is merciful and will
not always chide Like as father
pitieth his children, so the Lord pit.
ieth them that fear him, for he
knoweth our frame; he remembered,
that we are dust" He has promised
to go with us through the deep va.
ters; to bless our troubles; to uphold
us by His righteous, omnipotent
hand. EARLY in life she "remember-
ed her Creator' and took her place
among the children of God. Her
daily walk was thut of conservation
kind, loving, charitable her soul as
pure as the fair lily which some
thoughtful friend had placed on her
breast before we laid her in her
tomb. We feol that she is snfe il
the heavenly home amid tho ranso M
OF Of her God garneriDg in the
shcayes, the fruit of her labor, with
crown of Righteousness on her brow.
1t is needless for mo to dwell for a
moment on the many noble christian
virtues Of this woman, but as hor
friend aud pastor, I feel it my duty to
write n few words expressing my
high esteem and respect for SO lovely
II character as hers
She was no stranger to the people
of this community, but was widely
known in this rs well as in her nj
tive county, that of Grecnvilc. !
She WAS Miss Sallie L1gon. /the
daughter of Col. j. r. Ligon/ She
was married to J. IL. G.. hIDaniel
December 10th, 1869, AND /was the
mother Of thirteen children, all Of
whom survive her, and who are an
honor and blessing to such a mother.
Her spirit will walk beside he1
loved oues though unseen and when
Jesus bids them enter through the
pearly portals she will be tho first to
meet them.
She rests beneath her native EARTH
With grateful hearts we'll sing her worth:
Her gentle ways shall ever dwell
In hearts that knew and loved her well.
And oft we'll lift the fearful eye
Oh hear her calling from the sky.
Oh! how could We her absence bear,
But that we hope to meet her there?

DR.. K. r. Dean is a Kentuckian,
and he hasn't been here long enough
to be recognized as an ola settler,
but it must be admitted that he
has done exceedingly well by the
city of his adoption in erecting
what South Bend needed for so
long time-a modern and model
office building of large proportions,
five stories high, skillfully designed,
neatly and substantially construct
ed, and an ornament to the city.

equal enterprise and progressive
ness over in Kentucky, they should
be given to understand that the

Water Works.

The Central Record, of Lancas-

water works plant. The supply OF
water will be an S-acre lake with
about 23 feet of water, fed by
drainage of surrounding land. The
outlook may be roseate Noso. but let
them wait awhile and see what
kind of stuff is given them. We
hope the city authorities will be
wise enough to require filtered
water, unless they wish the people
to have water that swells, that
changes color, and imparts a Shiny
coating.

of laughter, song and brightness.
