ha ahla to educate his sister, no sac- rif,ce heinz too great for him to make in her behalf; he was the sunshine of the home.
 He came to Arkansas twenty years ago. and engaged in the lumber bus!- ness, and for the past twelve years was identified with John F. Ruther- ford of the Bluff City Lumber Co. He climbed by his own efforts to the top of the business world, and was what one would call selfmade man.

 In the death of Dayii Henry Dnn- can, to the loved one and others left behind, the sense of personal loss is so great that we can only g i've eS- pression ill our grief. He was a true. kind-hearted friend, the tender raid- ance which shOne from his beautiful idea of friendship gave comfort and cheer to all who came under it's in huence To his friends he was faith full and true. To the poor and needy he ever stretched forth helpful hand. As a member of the Bluff City Lumber Company, he was always present and manifested the greatest interest in all it's undertakings, faith full in the discharge of his duties, always doing the best for the good of the Company. This institution mourns the loss of a true and tried friend.
 The business interests and the com munity at large have suffered an ir- reparable loss.
 Thrust in moment from the full tide of this worlds interests, from it's joys, it's hopes, it's aspirations, in to the visible presence of death.
 What sundering of strong, warm manhood's friendship; what bitter rending of sweet household ties. whose lips can tell? He was a de- voted husband, whose life lay in hers who was his wife; his children, to whom he was most exceptional father, each day received their fath- CTS love and care, and in his heart the eager rejoicing proved to meet all demands.
 He believed in the religion of love and a gospel of good works. He svmpathiZed with human frailties, and human sufferings, he never bore malice. He felt that the man who scatters flowers in the pathway of his fellow creatures, lets into the dark places of life, the sunshine Of human sympathy and human help fitness. He believed We rise by raising others.
 To the bereaved ones we can truly say that loving husband and father has passed to immortality We re- Vt rently bow our heads in sympathy with those whose heart ties have been enapped by the stroke that was lad en with the~ acutest greif.\ Deep as is our bereavement, theirs is yet more poignant. They. miss, as no other mortals can, the kind and gentle voice of our friend: yet, across the abyss of grief, we gently clasp the hands of those stricken ones; we whisper in their ears those soothing words of comfort; He is immortal and let us see him not shrouded in night of gloom and sorrow. but smil- i! ing upon us from the sweet halo that marks Gods farewell to the day where the gorgeous sunsets paint the sky and sea with incomparable glory Smiling with all the we'll remembered
 grace of his true manhood and love and devotion, and saying; The sun set speaks but feebly of the slories of another day. All is we'll Witf new faith and chastened hearts, lei , us echo, All is we'll!
 FRIENDS.
