county KY. in 1926, he moved from
Madison to Lincoln county and from
there to Garrard county in 1852, and
has been prominently identified with
the interests and welfare of the county
since coming into the community. On
November LIST 1855 he was married to
Miss Mary Jane Miller, and to that
union was born three sons and two
daughters, Messrs Samuel and Robert
Willer Wherritt, long since dead, Mr..
MILAN c. Wherritt, prominently con-
nected with the L & N railroad in New
Orleans La. and Mrs. w. A. Boyle and
Mrs. w. A. Berkele of New Orleans
La.
A conscientious christian gentleman,
Mr.. Wherritt united himself with the
Presbyterian church when Is years of
age, assisted in the establishment of
the church of that denomination in Ian
caster, and has always been actively
engaged in all that tended to the furth-
erance of the interests of his church
and the cause of his Master. He was
County Clerk of Garrard county for
sixteen years, has served as a member
of the City Council, of the local School
Board, as City Clerk, and has ever
been active in the furtherance of coun-
ty and municipal affairs and the cause
of education, but beyond that he never
sought political honors, caring nothing
for the honors incident to a political
career save what benefit he might bring
to his town and county. For many
years in conjunction with Mr.. B. F.
Hudson, he had been engaged in the in
surance business with offices at the
Citizens Bank. Mr.. Wherritt was the
nestor of the local Masonic lodge, hav-
ing been a member of that organization
for more than fifty years, and the love
and esteem in which he was held by
that body was evinced by the largest
turning out of the lodge ever seen at a
funeral in Lancaster.
A kindly, benevolent gentleman, with
a bright smile and the good old fashion
ed custom of a hearty hand shake &C.
complained by pleasant smile for all
whom hemet, it will be hard to become
reconciled to his loss and to realize that
his old haunts will know him know
more, his death marks the passing OF
the old school gentlemen whose ranks
are so rapidly thinning, and whose ex.
| ample the youth of the present genera.
ton would do well to emulate.
Besides the wife and children men
toned, Mr.. Wherrit is survived by one
brother Mr.. Thomas Wherritt of this
city, and to the entire bereaved family
the kindly love and heartfelt sympathy
of the entire community is extended in
their irreparable loss.
At three o'clock Saturday afternoon
all who could manage to 4 find room
gathered at the Presbyterian church to
hear the funeral services, which were
conducted by Rev. C. C. Brown, and to
pay their last sad respect to our be-
loved dead; after the services, proceed.
ed by the Masonic fraternity the re-
mains were conveyed to the Lancaster
cemetery where the beautiful and inn
pressive fraternal ceremony was gone
through with, after which all that was
mortal of William H. Wherritt was con-
signed to its last resting place. The
grave was one mass of handsome fioral
designs contributed by the host of low
ing friends of the deceased.

Garrard For Wilson.

Democrats of this county attended
the Convention last Saturday from all
parts of the county. The followers of
both Wilson and Clark were enthusiast
tic in working for their candidate. Be
fore two o'clock about seven hundred
voters were ready to participate in the
convention. Many of the same fellows
that wore either Taft or Roosevelt bad
ges in the late Republican convention
were on the ground with Wilson badges
1t was quite evident that the support
ers of Wilson had freely distributed
doodle, and few of the Clark men
were inclined to complain about the
number of Republicans voting in the
Wilson crowd, but the cooler ones urg-
ed harmony on account of the fact that
this would be the last Convention, since
we had mandatory primary law in
effect.
Mr.. James |. Hamilton as Chairman
of the County Committee called the
convention to order in the Circuit Court
room at two o'clock. Mr.. r. H. Tom
linson was elected temporary chairman
and Mr.. w. B. Mason, secretary. The
Clark followers, seeing that they were
outnumbered about fifty by the Wilson
men, decided it was best for the party,
and in order to maintain good feeling
and hormony made no further contest.
The following delegates and alternates
were named and instructed to vote for
Woodrow Wilson in the Louisville con-
