AmOnS the MANY sad and I'M
expected deaths OF this county
was that of Mr. Benjamn Thomas
who was suddenly Snatched away
from thi, life on "Wednesday
morning. May 4th. He was Str:ck-
EN- with appendicitis about one
week before his death. and was
taken Immediately TO Dixie Hos
pital. IN Hampton. where he was
operated upon and was getting on
quite successfully. In fact, he
was so much improved that his
wife had been allowed the prive-
lige of sitting by hrm that day.
but. alas. when she entered the
room that morning. he who was
near and dear to her, was no
more. He had gone to dwell
with Jesus. The cause Of his
death was possibly due to some
heart trouble, which followed the
operation from which. he had been
suffering.
He was the son Of the lateJohn
and Mary +. Thomas. both of
whom were well known and loved
throughout their entire commune
~. The greater part of his early
life was spent i'll Mathews. but for
several years past he has been
employed in the u. s. Govern
ment Service. and was principle
keeper Of Thimble Shoal Light at
the time OF his death.
He was converted in early life
and connected himself with St.
Paul's Church. where continued
an earnest. consistent member as
long as he lived. He had also
been a member of St Puul'sSun-
day school since boyhood. No
one knew Ben but to love him.
He always had winning and a
loving VOID for every one, max
lng him Il general favorite with
every one with whom he came in
contact. 1t does seem, indeed.
hard to part with such lovahle
character. He was tender. de-
voted husband. a toving. a Fiction
ate brother and a kind loving
father. For such a noble. prom
istng Young life as his to cease
existing, means a great loss to
any community or county, and it
does make our hearts ache with
sorrow when we realize sAat we
can never look in his dear face
again. nor hear his footsteps COM
ing and going as we used TO. but
we look toward 10 a glad reunion
on that bright and golden shore,
whore there will be no 1noFe sep
aratTOm.
His funeral was conducted at
his home on Friday the 9th. bv
Nv. ]. Arthur Vim. his pastor,
assisted by Rev Geo. +. Thomas
both of whom spoke in comforting
terms Of tle Diseased. His re-
mains were laid to rest in the old
/ family cemetery. there to quietly
await the glad resurrection morn.
when with father, mother. sister,
brother. wife, child and other
loved ones. he will meet to part
no more.
He is survived by two sisters,
one brother. a sweet little daugh-
ter OF five, and heart broken
wife. besides host of relatives
and friends. all of whom mourn
his loss deeply. To those nearest
and dearest TO him, we render our
heartfelt sympathy and point
them to one who was a Man Of
sorrows and acquainted with grief.
Knowing that we Wli!' meet our
loved one gone. sOne sweet day.
if we are faithful to the end.
We shall meet him some glad morning,
Resting By the river fair.
He is waiting for our coming,

Deafness Cannot be Cured

bv local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one Way to cure deafness,
and this is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an Infia med con-
dltion of the mucous lining OF the Eusta
chan Tube. When the tube is lnfamed
you have rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely closed,
Deafness is the result, and unless the
inflammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to It's norma condition
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which
is nothing bat an infiamed condition OF
the mucuous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
