A Tribute to Albert Neville.

Born near Gainesville, Ala, in Sept
ember, 1882, living out childhood's days,
indicating preocus talents, coupled
with bright, sunny nature, although
burdencd with physical weakness which
continued to engage him in a struggle
until the unequal contest closed with
his surrender on Friday. November, ~.
This is the short lifeline of Albert
Neville.
There is no system of philosophy
VIII ther it be of theology, psychology,
logic, or any method of research that
will give satisfactory conclusions in
the effort to know just why this cru.
stroke, or that heartrending event is
permitted. If it were not for the con-
sciusness that wisdom. deep compassion
and illimitable love abounds, dismay
and anxiety would hold US in constant
state of terror.
Albert, by reason of his disabilities,
was the object of his brother Masscy's
tender regard, his sisters warmest af-
fection. his fathers deep concern and
his mothers ardent devotion. The life
of these two, mother son md seem d to
have become so blended that the thought
or wish of the one was the anxious
hope of the other. Realizing the sons
unequal chance in the attainment of
life's happiness and joys. the mothers
watchful eye, ready hand and burning
heart were active in the provision OF
that which might contribute some small
comfort and pleasure to the object Of
her affection; the son conscious of this
daily care and mighty vigil was as q
ship having lost it's mornings, listless
and unsteady when from the shadow Of
such love,
Though burdened with functional dis
order of the heart when slight exer-
else brought the daily combat for each
breath he enjoyed, Albert showed the
stoicism that had become his second
nature, by greetings of smiles and good
cheer to his friends. Always polite. he
evidenced the refining touches OF well
ordered home.
His remains were taken to Giles. five
miles east of Scooba, where there is a
family burying ground, and where many
old friends and relatives now live.
May we, his Survivors, learn some
thing from his short stay with US by
remembering the traits of his life and
by offering of consolation and sympathy
to his family, thereby, in a measure,
compensate for any little neglect or
failure to cheer him up, by word or
otherwise in life's toiling scheme.
A Friend.
