$. years. one of the oldest and most dis tinguished citizens of Montgomery and this county, passed peacefully away at his home. 11s Moulton Street. early yesterday morning. from . sudden att tack of heart trouble, with which he has been troubled for the past four years.
 As was his custom. Mir. Mathews took g long drive Monday afternoon. and upon retiring Monday evening re- marked of how well he felt. At 4 o'clock yesterday morning, however, he complained of his heart paining him and called one of the members of his family to give him stimulant. At physician was called in. but MT. Mathews continued to sleep and as he slept. his soul crossed the boundary which separates mortality from the .in- finite immensity of the great beyond.
 Mir. Mathews. the son of George and Lucy Mathews, was born on August IF. 1884, on his fathers plantation at Pike Road. in this county His grand father. William Mathews. was not able Southern gentleman. while his eat-grandfather, George Mathews, was twice Governor of Georgia, a United States Senator from that State, and distinguished officer in the Rev olutionary war.
 As young man, Mir Mathews att tended the preparatory school of Henry Tutwiled. at Greene Springs, which was a very notable school ip those days. both before and after the war. He completed his education at the University of Virginia. at Char lottesville. where he ranked high in his class.
 In the early fifties he was united in marriage to Miss Mary Eliza James. daughter of Colonel Lorenzo James and grand daughter of General John Scott, one of the founders of Montgomery, but Mrs, Mathews passed to her re- ward some ten years ago, During the war, Mir. Mathews did not actually serve in the army. for he believed that he could aid his country better in an- other way than by fighting at the front.
 Mr Mathews was one of the largest land owners in the State, and at the time of his death he owned four difter- ent plantations. comprising about [. 900 acres. He was never interested in commercial pursuits. but devoted his time to experimenting his plantations. the study of agriculture, and private investments. in which way he amassed a large fortune.
 Although deeply interested in poll tics, he would never consent to have his name offered as candidate for any office. But he was. however. ap- pointed member. of the Board of Revenue of,this county during Govern or Jelks's administration. where he served one term, and he was also di- rector of the MerchaRts and Planters Bank during its existence.
 Mr. Mathews was loyal and faith fnl member of St. Johns Episcopal Church, and he had a large circle of admiring friends both in the city and county. He was man who disiiked personal notorietys> being quiet and conservative. and strong in his feei- ings and friendships.
