Capt. J. A. Thompson Dead.

!. On Wednesday, the 18th inst, at
noon, Capt. J. A.. Thompson died at
his home in this place after an illness
Of only few days duration.
Capt. Thompson had been in failing
health for the past twelve months, and
at intervals was confined to his room
and bed from the disease that resulted
in death. At his bedside when the end
came were several of his children and
intimate friends. Henry Thompson,
who resides at Paducah, KY did not
arrive until after ibis fathers death.
The end came peacefully.
Capt. Jerry Thompson, as he was
familiarly known, began life quite young
as a school teacher His education was
of that character which fitted him for
this work especially and he sustained
himself in the school room. At the be-
ginning of the Civil war he enlisted as
a private, and during the four years
made a record for gallantry second to
none. His Service for several years
wasawith Gen N. B. Forrest and he
saw much of the hard fighting dsns BY
Forests command. At the close of
the war Capt. Thompson settled in Gun-
town and engaged in the mercantile
business; while residing there he was
elected sheriff of the county and remov-
ed to Tupelo. He was elected to serve
two more terms after this. In the
discharge of his duties he displayed a
splendid executive ability and won for
himself the name OF being one of the
best officers in the state. While sheriff
he devised, and had made, the present
tax receipt, which is now almost uni
versaIly in use AS a citizen, Capt.
Thompson stood for the best interest of
the country at all times and lent his in
| fiuence to the promotion of those things
that look to the public good. In frat
ernal work he was an ardent Mason
and had taken all the degrees from en-
tered apprentice to Knight Templar'
He loved the order and devoted much
of his time to its study and exempli-
fcation. For many years he served
Tupelo Lodge as Worshipful Master and
under his labors lively interest was
always taken by the Order.
The funeral services were conducted
from the NJ -thodist church by Rev. N.
G. Augustus, assisted by DR.. Black.
Mr.. Augustus paid high tribute to
the memory of the deceased whom he
had known intimately as a mason,
citizen and friend. At the grave the
services were concluded by the Mason
ic fraternity. Capt. R. S. Thomas con-
Quoted the services and paid deserved
tribute to the departed brother.
Many lodges were represented tom
all over the county by representativ as.

glad by the coming to us from Tennes-
see our beloved pastor, R A Kimbrough,
and his estimable family. Soon after
they came Mrs Kimbrough was elected
president of our Ladies' Aid Society.
With a beautiful Christian spirit, zeal
Gus when about the Masters business,
she has led this band of women into
greater things in every department of
our church work. Since being called to
another field of labor and the ties brok-
en-, still the bond of love is strengthen
ed by the power of that spirit which
unites Christians together. We will
miss the family in all our services, and
especially our beloved president in the
meetings of the society. We wish to
express our deep regret in giving her
up, and bespeak for her in hernew home
the same love and confidence that she
had among us.
We, your committee, beg to submit
the following resolutions:

nize the guiding hand of our Heavenly
Father, we deplore the giving up of our
beloved president.
Resolved 2nl-That we commend her
most heartily to the good people of
Blue Mountain, and congratulate that
