herewith give brief review Of the
enlinentIy strong and useful life OF the
deceased. ~
He was horn In Fairmont August "a.
1e40. and departed life February %,
1910. Into his life Of almost seventy
years he built the granite Of brave
deeds. and fearless advocacy Of tho
truth. He was Us gentle as the lamb
In his enjoyment of right, and as fear
less as the lion is his opposition to the
wrong. In this regard he inherited the
traits Of his father, Rev. Marshall T..
ard his mother, Catherine Ebert FIen,-

Col. Fleming was married on Feb.
ruary %, 1883. te Mary ELIZABETH
Dicky, then acting principal of the
Fairmont State Normal school, and to
them one daughter was given, Miss
Catherine D:cky Fleming.
To mother and daughter. rs well as
to the Importantly connection In our
city, the sympathy of the community
is EXTENDED. The price of every city
is her sons who have attained proni-
inerce, and Fairmont has just reason
to De proud of Colonel Flen,Irg. be.
