Arthur Dreher Buried.

More than one thousand people at
tended the burial Of the late Arthur
N. Dreher at St. MichaePs Lutheran
church, near his home, on last Sunday
afternoon As his beloved pastor, the
Rev. w. P. Cline, spoke feelingly of
his departed friend, there were but
few dry eyes in the vast assemblage. =.
The pal]bearers were composed OF
fox-hunters, all of whom we're selected
by the deceased several weeks before
his death. They were: D. F. Efrd,
Sam Lowman, s. E. Hendrix, Heber
&. Dreher, F. L. Corley and James
Wise.
A striking feature was the very
large attendance Of colored people,
many of whom had been in the en-
ploy Of MIR. Dreher for many years.
The floral offerings were the most
elaborate ever seen in this section, the
grave being completely covered with
handsome designs.
Arthur Dreher will be missed in the
family circle; he will be missed IN the
church, and he will be missed in the
community, where he has been pow
er for many years.

Creditors Meet Tomorrow

The creditors of the Lexington Saw
ings Bank, which went into the hands
of q receiver several weeks ago, and
Of w. P. Roof, bankrupt, will hold
meeting in the court house tomorrow,
and it is expected that the town will
be crowded with visitors.
It has been rumored for some time
that a compromise would be offered
at this meeting. Developments OF. the
last few days, however, have changed
the situation. and from the best infor-
nation The Dispatch has been able to
gather, it appears now that, no COM
promise will be offered. .
In case no compromise is offered,
the creditors will likely elect one or
more trustees, who will proceed to
wind.up the affairs as rapidly as the
circumstances viii permit.
What per cent the creditors will re-
alize on the assets Of Mr.. Root cannot
at this time be intelligently estimated.

Stucky had committed suicide except
that the knife with which he cut his
throat could not be located anywhere
in his room. The knife. double
bladed bone-handle instrument, was
found in pocket of coat belonging
to Mr.. DuBose in his room on Lady

For all practical purposes the ISL

such plans. There is the question of
uniform tariffs. of communication, and

would have to be consulted and would
