WORDS OF COINCIDENCE.
Some Editorial Expressions on the
Death OF Malcolm Carnes.


of the Mansion in the Skies, Saturday
morning. His was temperament of
sunshine for everyone with habits of
idealistic perfection; and whose faults,
If faults he had, were of so trivial a
nature as to be wholly unnoticeable
His life was one of noble endeavor
for his brother man, and the sad cy-
press which entered his soul and made
him not want TO live is unknowable.
But he is dead-the home is made
desolate and his place is vacated for
aye and aye, as none other may I'LL it
as did he. And let us cherish the hope
that from celestial realms his vision
will broaden our views and that his
works here will not have been in vain
His manhood was a manly exemplifi-
cation of the teachings of Him who
came up out of Gallilee, and towering
shaft of snowy marble may not add
to the monument he had chisled for
himself, with mathematical precision,
in the hearts of men who live on earth
today. Peace to his memory, with the
fond indulgent wish that the Mercy
Throne may in kindly graciousness as
suage the deep grief of the loved ones
left to mourn their irreparable loss
Hearne Democrat

Malcolm Carnes of the Bryan Eagle
is dead. For years he was our bosom
friend our partner in business, our
chum. He was true as steel, sympa-
thetlc, honest to fault; and above
all a moral upright gentleman under
all circumstances. We knew him DIT
ing the fight made for success by the
old Eagle firm, then composed of Con
nelly. Palmer & Carnes, as perhaps
no other man knew him; and as we
recall the fight against heavy odds
and the sacrifices made personally b.
the members of that firm to make
good. it is ours to recall that his tugs
were never slackened nor his energy
ever diminished II is with a sad
Heart that we chronicle his death; but
while it is ours to live, his memory
will be cherished; and as the tears c
sorrow wash away the grief of those
who loved him and the broken ties are
t. ken up and mended, it will be deem
ed a privilege and a pleasure to have
known and labored with him.-Hunts-
