of the writer at IL o'clock, where he
seemed to enjoy the evening with the
company present and aided In entertain
Ing, as usual. In the morning he was
dead.
His remains were carried to Farnhsm
Baptist church for interment Sunday
afternoon. A larger funeral is seldom
witnessed. Tears were everywhere end
unrestrained, aud almost broken hearts
wept themselves sick, so hard was 1t to
give him up. His pastor. Rev. Richard
Edwards, conducted the service, assisted
by Rev. II. o. Payne, of the Methodist
church at Wheaton.
Mr.. Bryant was ouly 25 years old and
man OF fac appearance; was studlous
and had great ambitions. His friends
predicted for him brilliant record. He
was Christisn of the higher type,
impressing and influencing others for
good. He contemplated entering the
ministry. He was universally aud de-
servediy popular and had won the
hearts of a host of friends because of
his courteous manner, strict integrity
and the conscientious discharge OF the
duties Entrusted to him. Everywhere Is
heard: "His place cannot be filed"
The writer was privileged to know
him In business, In church work and In
the social circle, and q nobler, purer
character Is not often met with. Great
sympathy is felt for has parents, Mr.. and
Mrs. James Bryant, OF Richmond county,
and three sisters, who are stricken with
grief in their sudden affection. Sorrow
also reigns In the home at Lltwalton,
where he was received and loved as one
of the family. and from which place he
