Death of William Burbage

Many of the readers of the MEsSEN-
GER will learn for the first time when
they peruse the following, of the death
of Mr.. William Burbage. 'rost excel
lent young man, a son of Mrs. Nancy
Burbage. of Stockton.
The death in Hampton on last Sunday
of Mr.. William Burbage. formerly of
Stockton. Md, but who spent several
wears here as salesman. in the store of
Mr.. l. + Mumford, and who for the
past nine or ten years has been an hon.
ored employee of the Newport News
Shipbuilding & Dry Dock Co., islearned
of with profound sorrow among those
who knew him in Cape Charles. Mr..
Burbage was one of the most upright and
popular young men who ever lived here,
and it was always pleasuse TO see him
whenever afterward he visited US. He
was born in Stockton about 33 years ago.
After his clerkship in the employ of Mr..
Mumford. he accepted position in New
port News which with the exception of
a few months only he held up to the
time of his death. While living in New.
port News Mr.. Burbage married Miss
Willie Booker, an attractive young lady
of Hampton; she is the only survivor of
his immediate family. He leaves, how.
ever, four brothers. Messrs. Henry,
Clarence, John and Pau. .and four sisters,
Mesdames f. I. Taylor. of Stockton;
Q. L. Tull. of Philadelphia; W. E Not
tingham. of Cape Charles. and Miss
Eva, of Stockton The entire family
may be said to be an exceedingly popu.
lar one, and wherever one of its men,
bers is known the intelligence of Mr..
Burbage's death will reach a chord of
sadness. MIR. Burbage was taken about
a year ago with "a throat trouble, which
rendered it necessary that he give up
his employment. he went to New Mexico
in hope of recovery but while there ex-
perienced no improvements. so started
home last week and arrived on Saturday
just day before his death. The Times
extends TO his SUI viving loved ones its
deepest sympathies. A most estimable
gentleman has passed away, man such
as we cannot afford to spare from any
community.-Cd Charles Times.

LETTUCE PREVENTS SMALLPOX.

| Don't forget that lettuce is
preventive of smallpox.
So far as it is possible for
human being to be protected from
catching smallpox, lettuce is ,
protection.
No need for vaccination whatever
Any person who eats small
quantity OF lettuce twice day
morning and evening, is as vel
protected against smallpox as it is
for any one to be.
To be sure, one onghtto be clean,
ought to live in ventilated rooms,
and avoid dirt Of all sorts. Also
avoid contacts with people who
have smallpox Foolish exposure
to the contagion of smallpox is not
to be thought of. But there is no
heed Tor vaccination.
Go calmly on about your busi-
uess. Provide a small quantity of
lettuce morning and evening, and
you can feel sure that Won have
prot, rl'd Yourself and yonr family
in the best possible way against
smallpox.
Lettuce is one of the oldest vege-
table remedies known TO the medi-
cal profession. Long before it was
used as food was used as medicine.
Many times it has been claimed
that it has magical or miraculous
powers to prevent contagious dis
ease. We believe this is carrying
altogether too far. But
lettuce does furnish to the system
exactly what is needed to protect
it against The poison Of smallpox.
We defy any one to produce a
case of smallpox that has been
contracted by any person who
made daily use Of lettuce as food. |
# there is any such case on record,
We would be glad to hear of it
