Letter from Rev. A. P. BOude.

Lexington, Va, Jan. IS, 1906.
Messrs. MARBLE Il Kerr,
Dealers in Marble and Granite,
Staunton, Va.
GentIemen-It affords me much
pleasure to certify that the monument
which you erected for me in the ceme-
terry at this place is highly satisfactory
to me in design, in work III anship, and
indeed in every respect. Every one
who has seen it and spoken of it, is
highly pleased with it, and who know
anything of the cost of such things
speak of it as marvel of CHI eapness.
This is something we do for our
dead once for all, and no transaction
l have had for many a year has given
me more perfect satisfaction than this.
With much respect, yours,
A. p. BOUDE,
Formerly pastor of Marquis Me-
mortal and East End churches.

darkies create their full shere of fun.
This entertainment is for the benefit
of the Guards and our readers should
give them all the assistance in their
power. 1t continues tonight and to-
morrow night. There Is no admission
free to the hall, and you only pay for
seeing the shows and for refreshments.
