Death Of MIR. E. R. Haskins.

Mr.. E. R. Haskins died at the home
of his mother in BOydton, Va, at 10
O'Clock yesterday Wednesday, morn
ing. Four weeks ago he went home
sick and it was thought at the time
that his condition was serious. He
had not been in good health for sew
eral months and in January his ply
sician advised him to quit work.
But he would not give up until tired
nature rebelled and through sheerex
haustion he was compelled to do SO.
Mr.. Haskins was teller of the First
National Bank of Henderson, a posi-
ton which lie had held since the
bank was established nearly three
years ago. He was capable official
and was thoroughly devoted to his
duties. Mr.. Haskins had labored
under disadvantages for the last six
months of which few even among his
most intimate friends knew. He sui
fered much but bore his infirmaties
with heroic fortitude never complain
ing or neglecting his work.
Deceased was 20 years old. He was
member of the Methodist Episcopal
church and lived as he professed the
spotless life of a Christian gentle
man. He leaves mother, four
brothers and two sisters beside a
large circle of more distant relatives
and friends to mourn his death which.
indeed, seems all too untimely. But
God does not err and it is for us to
bow in humble submission to His
ways mysterious as they may seem.
The funeral will be held at O'Clock
this afternoon, and interment will be
made at Boydton. Rev. R. c. Craven,
pastor of the Henderson Methodist
church conducting the service. Messrs
Roger Burroughs and Andrew }
Davis will represent the Henderson
lodge Knights of Pythias OF which
Mr.. Haskins was an active and hon
Ored member.
