In Memoriam.

The subject Of this memoir, sis
ter Eugenla Wright (whose maiden
name was SlepheHs) was born in
Ogletborpe County, Georgia, Nov.
9Th. 1889. She moved with her
parents to Macon County, Alabama,
when 6 years old. She was happily
married to Mr.. /. B. Wright July
2Srd. 1861. Several children were
horn to this union, but only one son
and two daughters, with their aged
father survive her to mourn their
loss, which is her gain.
Two months after her marriage
she gave her heart to God and ac-
cepted Christ by faith, and united
with the Methodist church at Creek
Stand, Alabama.
In 1882 she and her husband NOV.
ed to this county where she deposit
ed her church certificate at Rocky
Springs, in which church she lived
faithful. consistent Christian until
her dea'h which occurred October
18th, 1909.
Sister Wright was confined to her
bed lS months, although her suffer-
inc was intense she bore it with that
Christian fortitude that characterizes
the children Of God.
She often expressed her perfect
willingness and readiness to 60 when
the Lord should see fit to call her
home, and when the summons did
come she passed away as calmly as
one falling asleep.
May our kind Heavenly Father
bless and comfort the hearts OF the
bereaved husband and children in
this deep affection.
May the words of David comfort
your hearts;
81 shall 60 to her but she shall not
return to me "

versity, with the degree Of bachelor of
philosophy, Mr.. Newberry took up
work In the offices Of the Detroit, Bay
City and Alpens railroad and subse-
quently became general passenger
agent and then secretary of the COM
pany. After the death Of his father
Mr.. Newberry became president of the
Detroit Steel and Spring company.
1t was a case Of the Office seeking
the man when in 1905 the new secre-
tary was selected assistant secretary
OF the navy. The first intimat1on he
a Of President Roosevelt's intended
appointment was the announcement in
a Detroit paper about the probability
OF his being called to Washington to
take the place once held by Mr.. Roose-
welt himself. Mr.. Newberry's selection
was attributed to his service in the
Spanish war.
Three things the new secretary of
the navy dotes upon-automobiles,
warships and babies. He has the first
and the last. The president has seen
to 1t that his wants in the warship
line will be taken care Of.
Secretary Newberry was born in De-
troit Nov. 5, 1864. He comes Of old
Puritan stock and is a son of John s.
Newberry, who was a congressman
and throughout his life of much prom
inence.
When on Feb. 8, 1883, Mr.. Newber-
ry married Miss Harriet Barnes Of
Brooklyn, a popular debutante, daugh-
ter Of the late Alfred G. Barnes and
granddaughter Of the celebrated old
time publisher, A. S. Barnes, he aug
mented his own fortune, estimated ot
100000 900, by some $4,000, 900, Mrs.
Newberry's share Of her fathers o.

Mr.. and Mrs. Newberry have three
children, a daughter, Miss Carol r.

twin sons. aged sixteen.
