DEAD N CEMETERY.
DRIVER or PALLBEARERS CAR.
RIAGE DIES SUDDENLY.

Deborah Jewel. well-known col
ored man of the city, died suddenly
at the colored cemetery Wednesday
afternoon about O'Clock. Jewel had
driven carriage to the cemetery
bearing the pallbearers to the funeral
of James Cameron. He was sitting
on the carriage while-the funeral
services were being held. and just as
the minister finished the prayer he
fell from the wagon. When his
friends reached him life was found to
be entirely extinct.
The cause of the sudden death is
supposed to have been heart failure.
Jewel had been in failing health for q
number of years and suffered from
Bright's disease. He drove carriages
for several concerns about town for
many years. but had done no steady
work for some time.
The sudden death has been the &C.
casion for much comment amongst the
colored population OF the city. The
horrible wreck at Hamlet has stirred
the colored population as they have
never been stirred before. and this last
peculiar occurrence has added 10 their
keen sense Of uncanny gloom.
