Death of Rev. Philip b. Price
In Richmond

IN hicnmOuO
Rev. Philip Barbour Price, one
of the oldest and for many years
among the ablest ministers of the
Southern Presbyterian Church,
died unexpectedly just before mid
night last Wednesday night, March
s, 1905, at his residence, No. BIT
East Leigh street, Richmond, in
the SD year of his age. A large
proportion of that long and useful
life was spent in that city, as a
boy first, then in his maturer years
for nearly quarter Of a century
as pastor of q church there, and
for the last four years as a resi-
dent, not actively in charge of a
pastorate, but ministering unto
congregations of his church when
ever his strength permitted. The
end came peacefully, after an i'll
ness of about ten days, death be-
ing due more to the infrmities OF
advanced age and life of great
activity than to any disease. Few,
however. knew that death was so
near him.
Philip Barbour Price, son OF
John Marhall and Elizabeth Mosby
Price, was born in Hanover county,
Va, on August o, 1922. His
childhood was spent in his psren-
tai home in Hanover until his
twelfth year, when he removed to
Richmond and soon afterward went
to work on the Chesapeake d Ohio
(then the Virginia CentraD rail-
road, and remained there until his
determination to enter the minis
try, whereupon he began to equip
himself for his high calling. Like
most of the ministers of his church,
Mr.. Price was thoroughly educat-
ed, and when he reached mature
manhood was a man of wide erudi-
ton and ripe culture He entered
the ministry nearly sixty years ago.
His first passionate was the Third
Presbyterian church, corner
Twenty-sixth and Broad streets,
Richmond, which he served ac-
ceptably for period of twenty
years or moro, relinquishing it to
accept the passionate il the High
Bridge church, in Rockbridge
county, which he served for a
period of eighteen years. About
1888 he accepted call to the pas
crate of the Presbyteri ian church at
Buchanan, Rotetonrt county, Va,
and served that congregation for
twelve years finally retiring be-
cause his advancing age and en-
feebled physical condition render
ed HIM unfit for the active pastoral
work.
Mr.. Price was four times mar
ried, his last wife surviving him,
and he is survived also by six
children, two of them Of this last
union. His first marriage was to
Miss Peasants OF Richmond, who
died many years ago, Hs after
wards married Miss Charlotte
Armstrong of Richmond. His
third wife was Miss Rebecca Hous-
ton of Rockbridge. His suryiv-
ing wife was Mas Mattie Bads OF
Richmond. His living children
are: Rev. p. Frank Price, a mis-
slonary of the Southern Presby-
tcrian Church, of Kashing, China;
Mrs. L. M. Terrell of Montvale,
Va; Miss Lottie Price of Pitts
burg, Pa. Mr.. Emmett Price OF
Washington, D, c.; Miss Mary
Price and Mr.. Marshall Price OF
Richmond. Mr.. Price is the las Lac.
Of his fathers family. there being
no surviving brothers or sisters.

Shea, president of tho International
Transfers union. was upheld Iyester7;
day by Judge Kohlsaat, of the fcd-
eral court, in his refusal to answer
questions before Master in Chanccry
Sherman, which might tend to incrimi-
nate him. ~.
" Shea is under Indictment in. the
criminal court and Judge Kohlsaat de.
clared that answers to come of the
questions put to him might prejudice
the hearing of his case. ~:
In the same opinion in which he ex-
cused Shea, the court ruled that Ber-
nard Mulligan, president OF the Ex-
press Drivers union, and John Dona-
hue, member of the same union, had
refused to answer questions which
could not in, any way connect. them
with any criminal proceedings, and
they were therefore in contempt of
court.
He sentenced both men to Jail, but
allowed them to remain in nominal
custody of United States Marshal Ames
for five days, that their attorneys may
perfect u review on habeas corpus pro-
ceedings before another federal Judge.

Less Aid.

Owing to the fact that the last legis-
lature largely increased the number of
rural schools to secure state aid with.
out increasing the appropriation, the
rural schools will this year receive con-
siderably less than the 1925 each,
(which is the regular amount granted.
The legislature provided that ccr-
tain class of rural schools which do not
employ a first grade teacher shall have
$50 aid each. This money must come
out of the $1oo, 900 appropriated as aid
for first grade schools, and will accord
ingly, cut down the allowance for
each.
