In MemOriam.

Archelaus Kirkland, fifth son of
Joseph Eggleston Jones of honor
able ancestry, was born at ssWhite
Hail." Pattona district, Claiborne
county, Miss, June 3rd. 1899, and
his earthly career was brought to
a close at Natchez, Feb, and, 1917.
The interval between these dates
is the measure Of a long life, as
men count time, but all too short
it seems to US who remain. Let
us pause, while his name is stiIl a
household word, and consider this
life which he lived out among Us
50 simply and SO heroicalIy.
Capt Jones' early education was
cond0aed at the neighborhoOd
schools, where by diligent applica-
ton he became a good English
scholar. At the age Of seventeen
be matriculated at the University
Of Mississippi whence be was grad

every relation, if necessity were
laid upon him he could prove that
the wounds Of a friend are faithful
strong yet never stern; brave yet
never recklessly venturesome; un-
suspecting and confding but not
over.credulous; modest and unas-
suming but fearless. shrinking
from no responsibility and daunted
by no opposition if duty called,
and when occasion demanded, a
cool and resolute leader of mem
ali this be was, but he was more.
His crowning characteristics were
a generous sympathy sympathy
which made every man his brother,
every woman his sister, every or
phan his child-and an unselhsh-
ness of spirit and an innate noble
ness which led him to literal ODE
dience of the divine injunctions:
GAS ye would that men should do to
you, do Ye also to them likewise.
Give to every one that asketh OF
thee. Do good and lend, hoping
for nothing again." But it was
rather a joyous following out of
his natural instincts than a dutiful
obedience, a higher kind of good:
ness. And we know of surety
that the promise, ''Your reward
shall be great" is now being full
filled.
Captain Jones' religion was an
every day religion of deeds rather
than words, at home as well as
abroad. When about twenty nine
years of age, in old Epiphany
church, he received the rite of con-
frmation at the hands of the ven
cradle Bishop Green. In 1879 he
removed to Port Gibson, and here,
during DR.. Noel Logan's rector
ship, be was made vestryman of
St. James church, whose senior
warden he was at the time of his
death. For the past sixteen years

Another band has already penned
a fitting tribute to Captain Jones
gallant career as a soldier in the
Army of Northern Virginia, to his
efficiency during the reconstruction
era, his wise and economical ad-
ministration as president of the
Board of supervisors, bis long and
faithful incumbency of the Chan
Gerry Clerks Office, the public splr-
it which made him foremost in
promoting every good work, or in
dissuading from unwise or unfair
measures. Be it mine, therefore,
to speak of those rare traits OF
character that more particularly
endeared him to US, and for which
we seek, and seek in vain, in most
of his fellows.
Some one has truly said that we
love those, and only those, whom
we love to serve. Judged by this
crucial test, Captain Jones loved
all men; none had better right
than he to claim ssIch dein" as his
coat of arms. Not only is it a fact
that an appeal for ald-from any
source whatever-never fell un-
needed on his ears, but, in addi-
ton to this, he sought out the
needy, the sick and the unfortu-
nate. Truly his life was
like the springs
That bubbling burst to follow dusty ways.
That run with offered cup to quench his
thirst
Where the tired traveller strays;
They never ask the meadows if they want
What is their JOY to give,
Unasked their life to other lives they grant,
So self-bestowed they live.
In our fallen human nature, our
very virtues are beset with snares
and must be held in check, as 1t
were; but with't this man it seemed
not so. Gentle as woman, his
gentleness never lapsed into weak
ness; courteous under all circum-
stances, his courtesy never sank
into sYcophancy; eminently soci-'
able and hospitable, he stopped to
court the favor of none; tender in

of eighteen boys under sixteen years
of age. who have of late been coming

their parents have been notified and
the dealers have also been warned
