W.. G.. WILLIAMSON

Dear Mrs. Watson: :,
. I was shocked on receiving YOUR
card this morning, telling me Of
brother Watson's death. When 7
was there Saturday. I had no idea
that he was SO near the end. In
the midst of life we are in death
But we sorrow not as those who
have no hope. Brother Watson was
one Of the most cheerful Christians
as we'll as one of the most obIieing
men 1 ever knew. I am sure that
he will be greatly missed both in his
home and the community. He has
certainly left us worthy example.
I should so much like to attend
the funeral, but one of my little
boys is quite sick and needs my at
tention.
You have my earnest prayer and
sympathy. May God sustain and
keep you.
" Your sincere friend,

On Wednesday evening President

Dryo statesmen were entertained by
Register and Mrs. Vernon with a
magnificent reception and musicale
at their mansion, 420 T street north
west Prof. John T. Layton sang
several solos and the Jeter Brothers
exhibited their musical ability on
violin, piano and cello. Those pres
ent were Or. Scarborough, Prof. Earl

car Preston, all Of whom, with the
exception Of the visitors, were mem
bers OF the Wilberforcian Society of

and the hospitality dispensed by the
genial Register and his accom- pIished
W1fe was lin keeping with the true
Kansas observation-disclosures and blend
ed most happily with the whole-sou1
ed spirit In which the Wilberforcians
accepted tt-as generous tribute
or interest and affection from an
adopted son, brother and friend.
The most notable Of the many So
cial functions arranged in honor OF
Attorney Albert s. White, OF Louis
Vile, KY, during his recent sojourn
in this city was the elaborate ten
course dinner rendered by Attorney
Thomas l.. Jones, Of the District
bar, at his beautiful home, corner
OF Vermont avenue and II street
northwest. Mr.. White is a graduate
OF the law department of Howard
University, class of 90, and his great
and good friend. Mr.. Jones conceived

up in arms against the proposition to

been signed by nearly every property
