LOST MOUNTAIN.

A very sad death occurred
here last Tuesday, May End,
1911, that of Mr.. Ed. w. Kemp,
one of our best young men. He
had passed through a serious
spell Of sickness in January and
February, but was recovering
and able to get out and ride
about. He suddenly took a turn
for the worse and died last Tues
day morning. He was a mem
Der Of the Presbyterian Church
and belonged to the Odd Fellows
and Masons. Lost Mountain has
lost one Of her best citizens. He
was a successful farmer and
took a great interest in building
up his community. He loved his
Church and was always willing
to help the unfortunate and ac-
commodate his neighbors. His
pleasant disposition won him
many friends. A large crowd at
tended the funeral and many of
his friends over the county were
present. He leaves six brothers,
E. A, J. N, J. j. and DR.. w. M.
Kemp, of this county; r. E.

Mrs. Katie Rice, of this
county and Mrs. Joe Scott, of
Chickamauga, and two sisters,
who lived with him, Misses Nan
ME and Jessie Kemp. Rev. E. ID.
Patton conducted the funeral.
The pail bearers were his neph-
ews. The sympathy of the COM
munity goes out to the family
and especially the two sisters,
who were so faithful in his sick
ness. He was buried Wednesday
at Midway.
Died, on the 3rd inst, Ira, the
little son of Mr.. and Mrs. Tai
mage Wardlaw, about seven
months old. His mission was
short in this world but long
enough to make this home hap
Ply and bright by his presence,
now saddened by the death of
this little son. He has missed
the suffering and affections of
this world aEd gone home to
heaven. We extend our syrnpa-
thy to the family in this sad
hour. Rev. E. d. Patton con-
Quoted the funeral.

How oAbide With Me- Was writt.n.

How "AbIde With Me" Was Written.
At the age Of ffty-four Lyle found
himself doomed to die Of consumption,
and in sorrow at having to leave his
task unfinished he prayed that at the
least it might be granted to him to
write something which would live to
the glory Of God when he was dead
Then on the last evening he ever
spent at Brixham, after preaching his
farewell sermon, he took pen and as
the sun was setting over the ships
that lay in the harbor "Abide With
Me" was written. Next morning he
started for the Riviera and there died
a month later.--London Telegraph.
