UNCLE JOHN PEYTON, (col.,)
passed away at the home of his son
in Miami on Oct. 1st, 1909. Uncle
John had no disease but gave away
under the pressure OF old age hav-
ing attained the advanced age OF
81 years. He was probably the
oldest colored man in the vicinity.
Every one was familiar with his
lottery form and "head bending
low" for he managed to get
about on our streets 20 attend to
little errands about his home, until
few days before he died, when he
took to his bed from shortness of
breath and weakness, when his
folks insisted on him to take some
stimulant he would refuse by tell
ing them that no medicine would
do him any good that old age was
his affliction and medicine would
not help him. For years he has
heen waiting and watching and
saying "I'm coming" and at last
his earthly journeyings were over
He leaves two grown children, Jno
Jr. OF Miami and daughter in
Kansas. His remains were laid to
rest in the colored cemetery at this
place. How rapidly The few who
are left of the old slaves are pass
ing away and in few years the
children will not have the privi-
lege of seeing one as they will soon
be Thing of the past and will be
read OF and not seen. A. P. b

Three Forms OF Eye Trouble

any of which may have existed from birth.
Nature does not always make perfect ewes.
We have near-sightedness, far-sightedness
and astigmatsm, which is a form of irregular
sight. All of these defects require attention,
the sooner the better. If child has any
of these ocular defects and is expected to
do close work of any kind he must have his
eyes fully examined and wear such glasses
as will correct the refracton of his eyes.
AS well expect child born with one leg
shorter than the other to walk without
limpng as to ask one born with imperfect
vision to do accurate eye work without
suffering the consequences.
am equipped with every modern ap-
pliance to use in helping correct any ocular
defect Come in any time and let me ex-
anime your eyes, it will cost you nothing
and my prices on optical goods are extreme
ly cheap. Do not entrust the keeping of
sight to strangers people unknown to
you but one who has made this science

The following poem was written for
the occasion BY Miss Blanch Tilden.
It was in the month Of April,
just fifty years ago,
A youth and maid were welded
For fortune or for woe.
The maiden's name was Helen,
Sylvester was the man,
She OF the house Of Warren,
He from the Cameron elan.
Yet twas no Scottish chieftain,
But Yankee born and bred,
Who pledged his faith 70 Helen
The day the two were wed.
The days for them were happy
Till wars shrin cry was heard
and forth ne vent 10 duty
With no complaining word.
Three Years and more Of service
TIE gave bis country's need,
Returning not to kindred
Till freedom reigned indeed.
Two daughters came to bless them.
Their home and love to share,
And now when age is coming on
They freely give their care.
Ny friend, this story We are telling
You know BY heart full we'll.
The measure Of its griefs and Joys
There's none but you can tell.
4 special boon To you il given,
'Tis few indeed can say
We've walked together fifty years
Along hfe's devious way.
Now at this golden milestone
We grasp your hands to-day,
And ask for you your portion
OF blessings while you stay.
And as your sun advances
Toward the western border line,
May its setting rays reflected
Give you Joy and hope divine.
