The Davenport mill at the Davis
place started up again yesterday. There
is quite demand for lumber here for
fencing and otherwise improving, and
there should be some permanence at
tached to the business here. The matter
OF the price of logs seems to control the
running of the mill. This should be ad-
justed and the lumber demand supplied
at home.

reavement in the death of Mr.. ]. r.

Whereas it has pleased Almighty
God, in His infinite wisdom. to re-
move from our community and from
this world Bro. ]. r. Morgan, the
dear and devoted husband Of our
beloved sister, Mrs. J r. Morgan,
who is a faithful and consecrated
member of this society, be it re-
solved:
First. That this society has
heard with sorrowing hearts of the
sad death Of Bro. Morgan and that
we tenderly and lovingly sympa-
thize with Sister Morgan and her
family in this hour Of heartaches
and shadows.
Secondly. That in the death Of
this philosophical citizen and de-
vout Christian the Christian Church,
together with all the religious forc-
es of the city, has sustained Sc
we're and irreparable loss, and that
this loss will indeed be felt by the
entire community.
Thirdly. That while we deplore
this misfortune and realize the sor-
row with which the death OF our
brother has filed the hearts of his
devoted family and loving friends,
we rejoice in the Gospels precious
promise of a blessed and eternal re-
union beyond the vale Of tears"
