every year we hear some tired girl C,r

hall to pay this mark of respect to
the following brothers, viz; Messrs

impressive ritual of the order wer fol
lowed by an exquisite solo by Mrs. H.
NJ Hampton, whose voice is so sweet
and her song was lovely.
The secretary then called the roll
of the departed brothers, their inabil-
ity ever again to answer on earth to
their name causing so much sadness.
Another musical number by the
orchestra was followed by prayer
by Rev Campbell Gray.
AThe address Of the afternoon was
made by Rev. D. Chapman, the
new minister of the Baptist church,
who spoke most pleasingly. He
spoke of fraternalism and of what the
order of Elks stands for and his ref
erence to the life here and the bless
ed life hereafter was very beautiful.
This was Mr.. Chapman's first public
address in Ocala and he was listened
to with pleasure and interest.
After Mr.. Chapman's talk Miss Ce-
cile Downs sang when Have Cross
ed the Bar as sweetly and appealing
| " as it has ever been rendered here.
After her song and the doxology and
benediction the orchestra played a
beautiful selection while the aud

MR. RICHARD S. HALL MAKES A
BIG PURCHASE

Mr.. Richard S. Hall returned from
Richmond, Va, Sunday afternoon,
whittier he had been to consummate
a big purchase of turpentine lands,
which he has had under contempla-
ton for some months.
The lands are located in Manatee
county and embrace tract of eig1-
ty-two thousand acres.
Mr. Hall says that he estimates
that the purchase will round out
three hundred and twenty crops, and
that it will require twelve years to
work it up.
So during the next twelve years he
can turn his attention into other chan
nels, and pursue other projects, and
as he is progressive and resourcefuI
we can expect big things from him in
the shape of local Improvements.
