Ed. F. ]. Barger. of this county, re-
ceived telephone message last Mon
day afternoon stating that MIR. Ben. P
Rowe, one of the best citizens of Rus
sell county, had died in the forenoon,
and it was the desire of the family for
him to be at the residence Tuesday af-
ternoon at 2 o'clock and officiate at the
funeral.
Everybody in Russell county knew
"Uncle" Ben, as he was familiary called,
and his passing is a serious blow to
the Rowena locality where he lived and
and died. He was an ardent member
of the Christian Church, and his life
from youth up was that of godly man.
He was about Is years old. He was a
brother-in-law of Ed. 2. T. Williams and
a father-in-law of Mr.. w. T.McFarland,
who lives near town.
Honest in all his transactions, hospit-
able at his home, his death is universal
ly regretted. The sympathy of every
person who knew "Uncle'' Ben goes to
the surviving relatives.

A LETTER Of COINCIDENCE.

Mrs. Georgia Shelton has received
many letters of coincidence. giving her
much comfort. The one below is from
a highly respected colored man. and on
account of his standing with the white
people and the influence he has over his
race, we have asked for-lt in order to
give it to the public:
Mrs. Georgia Shelton,
''Kind Superintendent
'This is to express my sympathy for
you in your hour of grief. l know
what it is to lose son, ''baby boy"
John was a lovely boy; noble, intelli-
gent, beautiful fellow, but God had a
need for him. John is filling a
mission in that land of bliss that no
other could fill. He is now where no
more sorrow, sickness, pain nor death
can disturb his peaceful rest. Would
you, # it were possible, have him to
return to this sindistressed world?
Would you rob him of the great and
glorious inheritance which he now en-
joys? Remember the Lord giveth and
the Lord taketh, Blessed be the name
of the Lord. Now, kind friend, lean on
His Mighty arm and he will help you to
bear your burden. P. H. Jackman

brother and other relatives. Again,
the action of the Faculty, classmates,
and Society of Maryville College was
beautiful. Resolutions touching the
character, the esteem in which the de-
ceased was held, and flowers in great
abundance from the same sources, were
evidences that the deceased was loved
in that noted institution, and that his
passing had brought deep sorrow.
God works mysteriously-no one can
understand his mandates, yet we are
told by the clergy that He does every
thing in His own good time. and what
ever He does is for the best. We see
an old man upon a bed of affiiction
where he has lain for years, unable to
help himself, ready to meet his Savior,
even daily praying for the hour of dis
solution. but he is permitted to suffer
and live. We see young man, full of
ambition, with comfortable surround
ings, the pride of his mother, the life
of the home, a bright future in front OF
him, cut down, and yet we are taught
to believe that the sickle was ripe, and
we must bow our heads in humble SUBJ
mission to Gods ways, for they are
right. All Christians believe this, but
these dispensations of Providence are
hard to understand.
