ceived in Walhalla last Monday. Mr..

yer several weeks ago, and after a
fourteen-day illness died at his home

was a young man of much promise,
and though not well known in Wal

who had made his acquaintance dur
ing several short visits. About two
years ago he married Miss Jessie
Farmer, OF Walhalla, who, with one
child, survives him. Mr.. and Mrs.
r. A. Waite left Walhalla last We'd
nesday to be at the beuside of Mr..
Cooke in his illness. Mrs Cooke has
the sympathy OF many friends in
Walhalia, her old home, in her be-
reavement.
1t will be gratifying to the
friends Of James NJ. Moss to learn
that he has been made District Su-
perintendent for The Mutual Life IN
suranCe Company OF New York. The
business Of the counties of Oconee
Pickens and Greenville will be under
his direct supervision. For the past
year Mr.. Moss has been soliciting
business for this company, and his
record has been one of the best in
the entire State, and his promotion is
a worthy recognition Of his energy
and capacity for getting results. The
Mutual Life is the oldest company
in America and the strongest in the
world, and has more than sixteen
thousand policy holders in this State
The contracts OF this company arc
very attractive, as the many policy
holders in OcOnee county will attest
Mr. Moss will still have Headquarters
in Walhalla.
