MARRIED, in Leakesville, Mi IS,
on Sunday Sept. 27, 1908, at the
home of the brides parents. Mr..
John Tolbert to Miss Lizzie
Churchwell. The ceremony was
performed at 3 o clock P. M. by
Rev. w. A. Hayes Tolbert came
here from Lucedale about two years
ago, but halls originally from the
colt belt of Alabama. He has
just entered into his twenties and
follows the carpenter trade, at
which he is considered a go cd
man for his experience. Miss
Churchwell is the third oldest
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. G. w.
Churchwell, more familiarlv speak
ing with reference to the first ma
med, Tobe. They run boarding
house near the depot, having mo-
we'd into town several years ago to
educate their children.

The jolly, merry making Willis
Mcleod makes the student body
more joyful with his presence. Glad
to have you, Willis.
Fletcher Courtney and sister
from Alabama, have enlisted as

bamians be added to our list of
students.
Mr.. John McInnis from Vernal
enrolled as a Leakesville High
School pupil.
Alonzo Denmark and Wyatt
Churchwell visited the school one
day this week, lending much en-
enlargement to both teachers and
pupils, being old pupils of said
school in days gone by.
Miss Agnes Denmark, former
pupil, was heartily welcomed into
our student body. Hope her sister,
Beatrice will soon enlist with us.

him along the journey OF life, shar-
ing alike, its pleasures and sor-
rows to its close. From this mar
riage issued II children, 3 sons and
9 daughters, 3 sons and 7 daughters,
of whom are living and minister
ed so tenderly to their father du-
ring his last hours in this world.
There are % grandchildren. He
lived christian life and left an
example of noble citiZenshi 0.
His church relationship covered
about 60 years, and the greater
part of this time was spent in the
Eldership of the Presby te r a n
Church. He was an hon Ired mem
Der of the bench of Elders in
the LeakesviIle church at the time
of his death. He was highly es-
teemed in the Councils of The
church. His place in the Sanctu-
ary was never vacant, during all
the years we knew him, when he
was able to go there. His, was
among the first Presbyterian homes
we entered after coming to this
field Of labor. We never entered
home where we were made to
feel more welcome than in his.
This was true till the day of his
death.
AS he went down the hill facing
the setting sun, his hopes grew 50
bright that he had to tell his fam
lily and friends. What gospel
message it was! What an inspira-
tion it wasl What an encourage
ment to the christian toiling on in
these low grounds of sorrow What
testimony to the reality of the
christian religion. A man dying
as the world cannot die; claiming
that hope that is an anchor to the
soul, both sure and steadfast-in
Christ. Like Jacob Of old, he call
ed up his children, and grand chill
dren and blessing them, he told
them how to live, entreating them
to meet him on the other shore,
he bade them farewell and showed
them how to die in the sunshine
of Gods love.
My flesh shall rest III nope.
Let the most blessed be my guide.
lit be his mo st blessed will.
Unto his gate. into his fold
Uptu His holy hill
And let Him never suffer me
To swerve. or turn aside
, From Hisfree grace aud holy ways.
what CT shall me 5atdc.
And let Him gather them OF mir.

She leaves a heart broken hus-

aged mother, three brothers, and
host of friends and relatives to
mourn her l0ss. Al that kind
friends and loyed cues could do to
save her life and relieve her Of
suffering was done, but death had
calimed her as his victim and she
calmly resigned her soul to Him
who is the resurrection and the
life. May God cheer up and sooth
the hearts of the grief stricken fam
lilies and help them to so live that
upon the day of the Judgment they
shall be permitted to spend eternity
with Belle" around God 5 Throne
where we shall never say goodbye
She is gone but uot forgotten.
Never will her mcmory fade;
Sweetest thoughts shall ever lingcr
Round the grave where she is laid
II was hard to part with her
oh so sad to see her die;
But then we will try to meet her
Some sweet day by and by.

ers of the Herald who are interested
in learning how to sing correctly.
venture to say that there is not
another subscriber to the Herald
who enjoys its news more than our
esteemed friend Kim Daughdrill !;
for all times when the chance to
be at home you can see him with
the Herald and in that position Pc

her eyes we're swollen when she

OBITUARIES.
MRS. BELLE WEST.

Again the beautiful Autumn
months have returned but no with
out SORROW, sickness and death.
Seldom if ever chronicle a death
that is surrounded with more sad
ness than that of Mrs. Belle West,
who died on Tuesday morning Sept.
21 1908. She was born Sept. 1873,
and was a daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. John Avera, and was married
to Mr.. Lee West in Aug. 1907
A short life together here on earth,
but it was one Of uninterrupted
peace and happiness. T'is hare
to give up one so young in life
and one that possessed such &
kind and pleasant disposition, but
we thank God our grief is not az
those without hope, and midst the
sadness and tears we fully realize
our loss is Heavens gain.
When quite young in life she
united with the Methodist Protes
tant Church, of which she was 9
consistent member until death. Sht
was woman of the purest instin
cts, and was in all things devo
ted helpmate. No service, no sac
rifice was too great for her to rem
der to her family. A beautiful
life has ended here, but the mem
ory Of that life will ever remain
with us as an inspiration to highel
and nobler deeds. No better evi
dence of her worth and high es
TEEN could be had than the large
concourse of relatives and friends
that followed her remains to the

Mr.. Mcleod was born Oct. %
1927, about 5 miles Southeast OF
Leakesville, Greene County, Miss
He was living in the town OF
Leakesville, where he moved a few

His father, Peter Mcleod, came

of the State. These people figured
in the oganization of this County
in 1911, and in the administrra-

since. They were here during the
war of 1872, and the organization
of the State in 1857. They with
others. took part in planting the
