In Memorium.

Little Jessie, the 4-year-old daughter of Elijah and Mary Nichols, died September $, 1907. Another family is broken, an other saint is added to the angelic host of heaven. She was 8 bright child and loved by all who knew her. She suffered very much before death relieved her All that loving hands could dc was done to save her, but God ir His wisdom saw fit to take hel home to Himself, where there vii be no more pain nor suffering We offer to the bereaved parent: our heartfelt sympathy and pray CTS.
 This lovely bud, so young and fair,
 Called hence by early doom; Just come to show how sweet flower In Paradise would bloom. Ere sin could harm or sorrow fade, Death came with friendly care, The opening bud to Heaven conveyed And bade it blossom there.

 T. Lloyd Nixon, the subject of this sketch was born iu Marion county Alabama January 30. 1881. In early youth he with his parents moved to Chickasaw county Mississippi. He was there married August 6, 1851. In l86O he moved to Polk county. He remained there till July 7, 1907, when his immortal soul was borne away on the wings of death.
 During the war he fought near iy four years under Captain Buck hanan 24th Mississippi regiment He was many times wounded, being in many hard battles. He professed religion in 1857 and we are told lived Cody life the rest of his days. The writer has known "Uncle Lloyd" for twelve years and had learned to love hiu almost as a father. He left a clear testimony as to his future destiny. We have heard hin say so many times that he wa: ready to go at any time the Lore called for him, and while thi: humble writer is paying the last tribute of respect to this grand old man his soul is at peace 1T the haven of rest. Surly grea man in Israel has fallen.
