red at his home. Woodland, near

Va, on the ED of August, 1911. the
community in which he lived has
sustained the loss of u good citizen,
true friend, a kind neighbor
Conspicuous among his character
istics was his truthfulness. l be-
leve 1t was absolute. His courage
was undaunted and his high sense
OF honor and justice never swerved
an iota In all his business transact
lions. Yet he was tender hearted
and sympathetic and a benefactor OF
the poorer classes around him, both
white and colored.
Mr. Bouldin possessed In a mark ed
degree the attributes of the old-time
Virginian. He loved his State, her
history and traditions, the family
tree Of the Bouldins. his land, his
old home--all these he loved with
tho conservatism of the old school.
My friend has gone forth from the
circle of this life into the splendors
of an eternal morning, and the au-
thor of this tribute counts his ac-
quaintance with this man among the
choicest of his experiences. No truer,
Drawer heart ever lived.
He has left behind him the best
