at the age of 68 years, Z months and
3 days. When she was ten years of
age she moved with her parents to
Freeport, is, where she grew to
young woInaphood. She was united
IN the bonds Of holy matrimony with

The deceased united with the Con-
gregational church at Lanark, Ills,

engaged in all lines OF church work,
being particularly interested in and
identified with the Sunday school
department as teacher. In later
life, in consequence of her many at

to her heart.
During practically half her life
Mrs. Smith was afflicted, and was
thus denied many Of the privileges
enjoyed by those in the full use
Of their powers; but her faith in the
goodness Of God never failed, and
by reason Of a cheerful and hope

look on the sunny side Of life. put

less reason to complain.
She travelled on & path that shone
more and more as she approached
the perfect day. Many we're her af-

her out Of them all. She rests from
her labors, and her works do fol-

HOUSTON DOVE
GETS. FIVE i YEARS {
Found Guilty Friday Afternoon,
Sentenced This Morning

Houston Dove Saturday was sem
fenced to five years in the penitentiary
In Oxford superior court for the MUIR
der of Joe Roycroft. after having been
found guilty of manslaughter by the
Jury late Friday afternoon. n
The case was appealed to the SUI
preme court. The bond was fixed at
$4,000. which Dove will probably be
able to raise.
The jury returned a verdict of
manslaughter yesterday afternoon
about $3.50. after having been out
about one hour Sentence was sus-
pended until this morning, when
Judge Daniels announced that he had
decided on five years as the proper
punishment in consideration OF the
testimony that had been given.
II will be remembered that the
murder occurred near near-beer
joint in Granville county. Dove and
the dead man first Quarreled over
some imaginary difference in the
saloon. They afterwards made friends
and took a drink together to seal the
compact. As Dove started To- walk
out OF the saloon Roycroft hit him a
tremendous blow over the head with
beer bottle. The two went out to-
gether, and short time afterwards
cries Of murder were heard a short
distance from the saloon. The voice
was apparently that Of Roycroft, and
some of the Witnesses also testified
that they heard Dove make some
threatening remark at about the same
time. Roycroft was soon afterwards
found dead in the field some distance
away.
Signs Of a fierce struggle were
found beside the road and shoe prints
tended to show that 1t was Dove and
Roycroft that had engaged In the
struggle. William Lewis was the only
person that was anywhere near the
scene Of the encounter when II took
place, and he has not been located
since the time OF the murder. Dove
proved. good character by a number
Of witnesses and this tended to allevi-
ate the punishment somewhat.
