The year of 1910 has passed out,
one more year having been added
to the soth century. The history Of
1910 has been recorded upon the
chronicles OF time. Its events and
destinies have been told, It's joys
and comforts have been realized;
its adverEities, misfortunes and bit
teTness of life have been felt. Year
after year how swiftly they seem 10
pass. By the continued ticking o!
our clocks we hear the pulse of time
beating life and It's events away.
In looking back over 1910 We see
It's gains aud achievements, It's
wrecks and ruins. But our object
in this article, is 10 take note OF the
deaths that have occurred in our liz
tie town during 1910. While we
have been engaged in the busy,
bustling scenes of life ve have been
unconscious Of how many OF our
friends aud neighbors have passed
from the active scenes of life and
are missing from our midst. We
understand from our Undertakers
that during the year 1910, twenty
five white people and thirteen color
ed people have died within the cor
poraie limits of Greenville, making
a total Of thirty eight persons who
hailed the dawn OF the year 1910,
but we're missing at the dawn Of fioiI.
Some died in the spring of life, some
in its summer bloom, others during
its au,umnal decline.
We shall only take note OF a
family that has nearly become ex-
tinct in Greenville. that of J.. V.
Ragon, who was born at Bowling
Green, Warren county, in ISz4,
and came 10 Greenville with his
family in 1868, forty-two years ago, |
and cast his destiny with the people |
Of Greenville. lie secured a good |
and comfortable home in which ne
spent the remainder of his days. !
His family consisted of wife, four
daughters. and one son. He was a
saddler by trade, TO which business
be devoted all his energies, his time
and talent; he was industrious and !
did all that he could for the welfare
aud comfort Of his family; be was
quiet. discreet Christian and a re-
spectacle citizen; he was devoted
of the Baptist church and
for a number OF years vas town
trustee Of Greenyille; and all along

THE YEAR 1910

BY RONDO

family for twenty years, he loved
his family and home, ne did all he
could to make it happy and com
Portable. He and his family seemed
to enjoy life; they we're generous
end kind. We knew them when they
we're al within the bloom and vigoI
of health, but as years came and
went, and after the lapse Of twenty
Ave years, death entered the home
stead and one by one OF the family
began to wi;her, to pine and die; a
mother, three daughters, one son
and grandson, all went down in
death, leaving the aged father and
bis Oldest daughter. the only repre-
sentative of the Ragon family. The
old man, now past his four score
years, the vitality Of bis life fast re-
cedinR, weakened by the tolls of
time and the weight Of years, pill
lowed his weary head upon the
bosom of the affections, love and
care of his only living offspring.
whose kindness and care was de-
voted to the giving him all the at
tention within her power for his
comfort and ease. Gradually he
pined away, and after be had reach
ed his four score years aud ak,
breathed out his long and eventful
life in November, 1910, leaving a
lonely daughter to NOUN her loss.
As We stood and saw the pallbearers
carrying him from his home, along
the way he had come and gone
thousands of times in life, to meet
and greet those that he loved, tears
of sympathy fell from our eyes when
We saw the only remaining daughter,
with broken and bleeding heart
following the lileless body Of her
father and the bes, friend she ever
had; she followed him to his destiny
in time, 10 where he was gathered to
his family that had proceeded him;
she stood and saw him covered up
from the sight of the living and then
returned to her desolate aud forsaken
home. All of its charms had flown
"A home no longer sweet and dear,
but sad. She determined to leave
it and let it pass into the hands Of
other names and she would seek
protection aud comfort with relatives
elsewhere. SO in Greenville the
Ragon home will cease TO be, and
the -Rasnn- aane become s=.iast
There are. now fragments of four
families in GIeenvillc that were here
when the Ragon family came, and
perhaps they too shall soon become
extinct.

Upon a complaint Of Booker I.

educator, man was locked up by
the police in New York Sunday night
charged with assault upon DR.. Wash
ington. The latter received so Sc
we're a blow on his head from a club
that he was at the Flower hospital
for over an hour late at night fav-
ing the wound dressed.
The trouble occurred in front OF a
Sixty-third street house, at which
Washington called about 10 o'clock
at night to see a friend, but no one
answered his repeated calls on the
doorbell. Thinking the man he
wished to see might appear any mo
ment, Washington walked up and
down in the vicinity for more than
half an hour, when his walk was in
terrupted by a man having the ap-
pearance Of a janitor, who emerged
with a big club in his hand, accord
ing to the complainant, and struck
Washington.
Washington said he returned the
blow with his fist and held the man
until the police arrived. The jani-
tor acted, according to Washington
"as though he thought ! was bur.
lar" The alleged assailant, who is
a large German, gave his name as
Albert Ulrich.
Washington appeared against the
man in the police station next day
and the man was put under bono
| for trial.
