Union.

On Flower Mission day June 8,
all good White Ribboners know
we honor as Miss Jennie Cassa-
dy'S birthday who, from the sick
bed, where she had lain for 80
years was the first to lead the w.
c. t. U. in this tender ministry,
Flower Mission. !" This depart
ment aims to graft our gospel up
on beautiful form of philanthro-
ply. Frances Willard was very
fond of saying that the w. c. It.
U. aided woman to discover her
self. 1t is easy to feel the truth
of this in looking back on our
work after the lapse of years; it
is not only what women have ac-
.complished along the lines of our
direct work, but the process of
development in that activity that
has fitted them to enter many of
the open doors which. stand ever
widening avenues to their highest
usefulness. While giving thanks
to Him who resurrects the flowers
every spring, and while using
them as loving tokens, to honor
those to whom tbs their due, let
us not forget the first flower mis-
sion of our local w. c. II. u, our
sainted Miss A. E. Ford, who has
in being called up higher left our
hearts SO sad we cannot see for
tears even yet to write the gospel
of her works-her flower work,
her kindly help to all within her
radius. But if we never write it

sus who sustained her through all
trials, and she had her share; He
knows and will see that her works
will follow her. How many in
this town will join me in the as
sertion, but for her we could
not say am Through the help of
Jesus who stood by her) what |
am, WHO will join in memorial
mission service of planting, nour-
;shing and cherishing one box or
pot or plat of flowers each year in
her memory, to distribute as she
did. Think it over, if she ever
rendered you favor this is your
opportunity to pass it on, and let
us all pray that the mantle she
needs no longer, may descend to
us the mantle that shows us how,
when and where the Master wills
that we work.

A Road of Tragedies.


The road from Iuka to East
port has been the scene of many
tragedies, one of which we will re-
late as we have heard it told by
old citizens.
On the 18th of December, 1858,
some negroes belonging to James
Castleberry, who lived 3 miles
northeast of Iuka, were cutting
wood near the house when they
discovered the body of a dead
white man. The body had evil
IDENTIFY been hidden under a log
and had been dragged out by the
hogs. The negroes were greatly
alarmed and excited by the grue-
some discovery and rushed with
the news to the white folks. A
crowd soon gathered and examin-
ed the body. Death had been
produced by a stroke of heavy
piece of timber on the back of the
head, and was recognized by some
of those present as that of an old
1rishman who had been seen in
Eastport some two weeks before.
The Irishman was drinking, as is
customary with many of his race,
and displayed considerable roll
of money. A man named Alex
kibby, who lived near PASSPORT,
was seen with the Irisman all day
and left with him in the evening,
going in the direction of Iuka.
Nothing was seen of the Irishman
after that until his body was found.
Suspicion was of course directed
to Kibby and he was arrested. He
was wearing a pair of boots SINH
lar to those worn by the dead man.
A close examination of these boots
and comparing them with one of
the legs of the corpse disclosed
the fact that there was soiled
place on the inside of the leg of
one of the boots that exactly fitted
an old sore on the leg of the dead
man. Thisixed. the guilt of Klb-
by beyond doubt, He was bound
over to the grand fry and sent
to, Jacinto Jail in default Of bond
The next grand jury indicted. him
but the trial was putoff until the
war began. Then President Dav-
is issued a proclamation pardoning
all prisoners who would enlist in
the Confederate army. Kibby en-
listed and was released from Jail
but he staid in the Confederate ar
any only until chance came to
desert to the enemy, which he did
and remained north until after the
war. He came back then and
met tragic death in Corinth
about 6 years ago. He drove to
town in wagon, his team became
frightened, ran away and, killed
killed him.
There is nothing remaining of
the old Castleberry homestead ex-
cept few scattering fruit trees
/ and a little yard shrubbery, to-
agether with the old chimney rocks,
to mark the place where the house
stood. Alarge family was reared
to manhood and womanhood here
Of which survive only two-Miss
Nina Castleberry, of this place,
and c. c. Castleberry, of New
Albany, Miss.

The untimely death of John A. john
son, Governor of Minnesota, will be
greatly deplored. 1t removes a strik-
ing figure from the field of national
politics and deprives his party and
his State of a man with a large cap
acity for inspiring respect and making
friends. Beginning life with neither
pecuniary nor educational advantages,
Governor Johnson has climbed high
on the ladder of fame and had come
even nearer to being the Presidential
candidate of his party than is gen.
orally realized. In Governor John
sons death his party has lost a dis
tinguished member and his State a
beloved son. and the entire country
will extend its sincere sympathy to
both.
