of a host of friends who have heard

Mrs. Weed, who is suffering from an
attack of blood poison, with no hope

her bedside on Monday of last week

Mr.. Weed has been at the home of
her parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Henry
Markley, in Philadelphia, for two
months or more, to whom son was
born two weeks ago bringing JOY to
many hearts, yet how soon sorrow
comes in. Many prayers ascend that
God will wondrously restore her to
health, family and friends. Let us
trust this scripture saying, All
things are possible with Cod"
Mrs. J. j. Moore attended the fu-
neral of Mr.. John Dubois at Swedes-
boro on Thursday of last week. The

livered a forceful, eloquent sermon;
his tributes to the memory of the
deceased were beautiful. Mrs. G w.
Hannold, Mrs. George Ashton, Mr..
Vandersloot and Mr. Biddle Moffett
sang Jesus Lover of My Soul" and
Rock of Ages" most effectively.
Truly a good man has fallen, yet his
influence will go on until times cy-
cles cease to roll The many acts of
kindness shown and courtesies ex-
tended to those who toll for their daily
bread will never be forgotten by them.
May this blessed mantle of charity
fall upon his sons is the prayer of the
toiler

iously i'll, and who is now quite feeble,

Even down to old age all my chill
dren shall prove My sovereign, eter-
nal, Interchangeable love, and when

like lambs in my bosom shall they
still be borne" May this be her exl
perienee.
