John S. Cobb.

At the home of his brother, J.
H. Cobb, on Wednesday after
noon, John S. Cobb died after an
illness of several weeks duration.
His condition has been consider
ed very serious by the physicians,
but he rallied and hope was en-
tertained that he might recover.
On Wednesday morning he grew
rapidly worse and death followed
at noon.
John S. Cobb was born and
reared at Verona. He was a man
of superior mental attainments
and impressed his personality
upon everybody with whom
he was associated. In early life
he entered the mercantile bust
ness and for a number of years
was a travelling salesman He
was a successful business man
and was one Of the leading mer-
chants of the place at the time
of his death.
Mr. Cobb was an ardent Ma
son and passed through all the
chairs of the local lodge and was
honored by being promoted to
the exalted position of Grand
Master of Masons of the state.
His service as such brought him
distinction in the order, and his
administration reflected credit on
the fraternity and it's benevo-
lent work. He was a life long
member Of the Baptist church
and a Jealous worker in the Sun
day school and took an active
part in every work ofhis hurch.
He was a loyal friend, a good
citizen and in his passing away
the community loses one of its
best citizens.
The funeral services were con-
Quoted from the BAPTIST church
at Verona by Rev. Jeff Rogers,
after which the Masonic fratern-
Try took charge and laid the body
in its final resting place with
honors.

Herman Miller Pardoned.

Among the last pardons issued
by Gov. Noel was that to Her.
man Miller, a young man sent
up from this county for entering
the depot at Guntown some time
last spring.
There were extenuating cir
cumslances connected with the
case, and the petition to the gov
ernor was signed by the county
officials. the county attorney and
the district attorney.
Miller seems to have gotten
into the trouble without any in
tent to infract the law, but was
the victim of unfortunate cir
cumstances. He was a stranger
without money or friends. and
entered a plea of guilty. He
spent nearly a year doing service
for the state. and those who
signed his petition and pressed
it felt that he had been suffi-
GENTLY punished. He is a Ger
man by birth.

troubles. For several days prev

friends he peacefully fell into
that sleep that knows no awak-
ing.
Mr.. S:sk was 65 years of age
and had been a resident of Tu-
pelo for the past five years. He
had previously lived near Net
tleton for many years and was
well known over the county. No
man came nearer holding the
perfect confidence of his friends
than did Mr.. Sisk. His word was
his bond and in every sense he
measured up to the standard of
manhood laid down in both civil
and religious ethics and in COM
pleteness and with consistency
he observed the principles the
bible teaches in his daily life.
He served as a Confederate
soldier and bore an honorable
name fol- his undertaking loyalty
to the cause he espoused. He
was a devout member of the
Methodist church.
He leaves a wife and four

circle of friends to mourn his
death. The interment took place
