AN IMPORTANT CASE.

The thing least desired by a good business man is a suit in Court There is a remedy for every defect in your title to your land, if taken in time. That is if you have any title, and if you have no title you do not want to be giving a warranty deed, do you? To do so would be to invite d lawsuit. Before closing your trade demand an abstract of title.

Mrs. Anna Alley Davis, daughter of Henry and Martha Alley, was born at Moscow, Tenn July l6, 1888, and dit at Forrest City, Ark, March Is, 1910, having lived a little more than the three score and ten years.
 On August l7. 1859, she was happily married to T. A. R. Davis, a man oi honest report and genuine worth. Together they shared their joys and sorrows till May 2l, 1905, when Bro. Davis was summoned to come up higher
 To them were born seven children three sons and four daughters. Five of the children are living Hattie, Henry, Tommie, Charlie and Win field Three sisters and two brothers survive-Mrs. Sallie Smith and ]. H. Alley, of Forrest City; Mrs. Frank Ballard and Tom Alley, of Rossville, Tenn; Tom Alley, Rossville, Tenn J, H. Alley, Forrest City.
 Sister Davis was educated at the Marshall County Institute, Miss She was highly educated, cultured, christian woman. She was converted and joined the Methodist church in early life. For many years she was a teacher and many boy and girl felt the uplift of her gentle influence. As companion her husband ever found her true and faithful As mother she was perfectly devoted to her chil- dren and was willing to sacrifice and suffer for them if need be. Happy is any boy or girl who can look mp into the face of such a character and call her mother. Her influence in the community was altogether permitted. l Her pastor always found in her true friend. She bore her atlictions with christian fortitude. Her life was full of goodness, gentleneSS and love. Her death was peaceful and victorious She leaves many friends on this side who miss her gentle smiles and tender touch but more stand on yon der shore to welcome her home.
 The funeral services were conducted at the Methodist church by the writer She was laid to rest by the side of hel husband in the cemetery at Forrest City.
