ROBERT GRAVESCOFfEY
A Prominent Young Man Of CoIum.
bia, After a Long Illness,
Meets Death.
EVERYBODY WHO KNEW HIM MOURNS.

Last Saturday forenoon at 10 o'clock,
after an illness of several years, Robt.
Graves Coffey, one of Columbia's most
prominent and highly respected young
men, the fourth son of Joseph and Jen-
ME Coffey, calmly closed his eyes in
death.
1t was known throughout this county
that the deceased could not recover, as
he was victim of pulmonary trouble;
and while the family and his friends had
nerved themselves for the breaking of
life's cord, the hearts of the people Of
this community bled when the intelli-
gence of his demise was announced.
"Bob" Coffey was a true Kentucky
gentleman. He stood for the right, and
the littleness in any man met his disap-
probation. When in health he met you
with smile and invariably his
words of greeting were those of cheer.
No young man has died in this commu-
nifty for years that brought more uni
versal sorrow, genuine sympathy being
expressed in every household for the
bereaved parents and the four surviv-
ing brothers and other relatives.
The deceased was born in Columbia
August 27, 1872, hence he would have
been 36 years old had he lived until his
next birthday. At the age of 16 he
made profession of his faith in Christ,
united with the Presbyterian Church,
and was faithful to the end.
For many years he was a book-keep-
.er in the Bank of Columbia, and was
very efficient in his work, and univer-
sally liked by the directory and the pa
irons of the institution.
Several years ago he concluded that
he could better his condition by living
elsewhere, and he went to Dallas, Tex
as, where he accepted position in a
large jewelry establishment, and where
his manly conduct and genial disposi-
tion soon made him a host of warm,
personal Irlen0S.
Ten months ago he became too weak
to work and returned home, and after
spending few weeks with his parents
he went to the mountains of Tennessee,
hoping that higher altitude would be
beneficial to his wasting constitution.
He returned home seven weeks ago,
resigned to die surrounded by his loved
ones.
The funeral services were held at the
Presbyterian Church Sunday afternoon,
conducted by Rev. A. R. Kasey, assist
ed by Ed. z. T. Williams. During Bro.
Kasey's discourse there was scarcely a
dry eye in the church, which was mad
equate to hold many who arrived to
gain admission.
The services concluded, all that was
mortal of this beloved young man was
laid to rest in the city cemetery, his
grave being covered with beautiful
flowers.
In testimony of the high esteem in
which he was held in Texas, we publish
below letter from his employer. re.
ceived by the deceased the first OF
April.

The patrons of the Lindsey Wilson

On Tuesday, the 5th, Mrs. B. T.
Vaughan, widow, died at her home
near Bryan, Russell county, death

John and B. H. Vaughan who heard of
her sickness did their best to reach the
old home in time to see their mother

death angel had been there.
The Board of Trustee are making a
special effort to improve and beautify
the city cemetery. 1t is the intention
to press the work until the cemetery
is put in first class condition. Recog-
nizing the fact that the ladies can be of
great assistance to them, and in order
that systmatic organization of the
ladies, who are interested may be made,
the board of trustees have authorized
us to make the following announcement

ested in improving and beautifying the

are interested are invited to be present.
Mr.. D. L. Monaghan, of Trenton,
Texas, former citizen of Adair coun-
ty, writes us that every thing looks
gloomy in the county in which he re-
sides Farmers are all behind with
their work on account of too much rain.
Corn is up and has been plowed over.
About one-half Gotten crop planted.
''The new corners from Adiar county
struck Texas in dull time. 1t was
dry when they come. If they are will
ing to stick to Texas when it is dry and
they say they are, am sure it will
stick to them when it is muddy" Mr..
Monaghan says he wants to hear from
Sparksville and Weed often through
the News.

DALLAS, TEX, April 1st, 1908.
Dear Coffey:
Marvin has just come in from Mr..
Wheat's and tells me you are very, very
sick. This is very sad to me as l had
heard that you were much better and
expected to return to Texas this Spring.
Coffey, l am sure you are ready to go
to meet the Savior, if you must, and
that you will have a much better time
there with Him.
l am one of many here who love you,
Coffey, and will be very sad if you can
not come back to be with us again, but
l will see you again in the heavenly
home, if not here. If you 60 before I
do, when you see Rosecrans, tell him
how much his mother and / and the
children still miss him and think of him
many times every day with love. Tell
him that we will see him before long,
and my father and mother and two
children tell them we love them too.
Good bye, dear old Coffey, may the
spirit of Christ comfort and strengthen
you and those of your loved ones, for
He is able to keep that which we have
committed with Him until that day.
Your True Friend,
ARTHUR A. EvERTS.

whatever OF real support the Hearst
propaganda had IN the early stages
OF the campaign is fast falling

comes around the Independence
