the church of which he was promi-
nent and deyout member. Mr.. Earle
had been in Ill health for some years,
a2a the Tapiu decline witnessed by
his physicians and loved ones here
for the past weeks was the natural
premonttion which warned them that
the end was near. He was an In
tense, but brave, sufferer, and every
thing that the skill OF local physi-
clans and specialists could do was
done, but nothing could stay the In
roads of the dread disease, and SO
consciously and braYely he awaited
the end. His immediate family was
about his bedside continuously, doing
all that tender solicitude suggested,
and the home is indeed desolated.
The names of those left to mourn the
irreparable loss are his wife, Mrs.
Nettie Earle, his sons, ELIAS and Will
ton, his daughter, Mary, and sister,
Miss Fannie Earle, who made her
home with the family. The funeral
services We're held at the Baptist

rowing friends congregated to pay

home, a long procession following the
remains to the distant churchyard.
