SPLENDID CITIZEN GONE,

Will Davis, a leading farmer and prom
inent citizen OF this district, passed away
Wednesday at 8 a. m. at his home near
Weems, from an abcess of the lungs, re-
sulting from an attack OF the grip, after
an illness Of about a month. He was 40
years old, and leaves a wife daughter of
[. T. James, OF Irvington), one little boy,
three brothers and two sisters and a
host OF friends to mourn his untimely
taking of. His remains were inferred
yesterday afternoon at the Baptist
cemetery in Irvington in the presence OF
a great company of sorrowing friends.
The deceased was one of the sterling
citizens OF our county. In his modest
and retiring nature his life was an ex-
emplary one, and few deaths in late
years have so affected our community.
He was Industrious and thrifty, and was
an illustration of the truism that farm
ing attended by these characteristics is
not failure. His death prompts us to
say that the sickle of Time has been cut
ting quite broad swathe. in our section
OF late, taking from it men whose useful
lives will be missed, yet passing over
some, as is usually the case, that might
be easier spared
