Reuben A. Dement, Dead.

The subject OF this sketch, who wa!
r SO we'll known to the citizens of thi,
: county, vas called to his final reward
] at his home In Meridian on Friday
morning, August 10. after a protrac.
ted illness of Bright's disease.
; The deceased was about seventy
!, years old. He was born near Flor
ence, Ala, and came to this state
about the time of reaching his major
ity. He was n OF the county's old
est citizens and was a man OF MANY
commendable traits of character. He
bore no malice and had no enemies.
He is survived by five children, to
whom he was very devoted and but
for them he said he would have no re.
grets at meeting the grim rearer.
We clip the following from a beau
tiful tribute paid to the deceased by
the Meridian Star:
MI. Dement, enlisted as a private
soon after the opening of hoStilities
between the States in the 18th Mis-. |
SlSSlppi regiment. and as a true SOL |
dler, no member Of that faithful band
OF warriors could boast OF a more
faithful record. Both before and af-
ter the war there was manifested in
The life OF Reuben A. Dement, that
same loyalty to country, devotion to
duty and love OF friends that will pre-
dominate in the character of the SOL
dier life. Though until
few months ago he had never united
with the church, still, his daily NOR.
life was that OF a true christian.
The duty, however, which he appre-
;iated that he owed to his family, his
and his God, that OF a
public profession Of faith, he perform
ID a short time ago, connecting him..
elf with the Cumberland Presbyte-
ian church Of this city, and crowning
he beautiful life which he had lived
n a manner becoming to the genuine
iharacter of the man."
His remains were brought here and
Inferred in the old Jennings buryingl
round beside his wife who preceded
i'm to the grave about four years ago..

We read of a fellow who poses as
one who is wise above that which is
written, who recently answered the
following advertisement in an eastern
25-cent paper: I'VE will send IL cents
for 1902 pennies" He scraped around
until he got fifty Of the 1902 mintage
and forwarded them in a registered
letter. He received immediate re-
ply saying that when he sent 1852
more pennies, sufficient to make up
number -1902- he gave himself a
kick, borrowed enough to subscribe for
his home paper and proposes in the
future to keep posted on these little
graft games.
