Mr.. Ludolph Nealley passed away Sept 18th
at his home in Monroe, aged "a years and s
months. He was the son Of the late John B.
Nealley and Mrs. Bertha Nealley. Four years
ago he had q serious trouble with his head,
which was the beginning Of his sickness.
Three years ago he went to Palatka, Florida.
and spent the winter, and it was then thought
he was much benefited by the change; but the
disease was tubercular, and he remained about
the same until last winter. when the doctor
thought Hebron Sanitorium would be bene-
fetal. But there was no help and he returned
home the first of the summer and was with
his mother until the end. Constant loving
care and the watching through the long vigils
of the night was of no avail. He grew weaker
and his sufferings were great at times. Dur
ing his sickness he was kindly remembered
with many dainties to tempt his appetite and
the mother and sister wish to express their
appreciation and extend thanks to all their
friends for these evidences of love and friend
ship. The deceased was of a quiet, unassum-
ing nature and made friends wherever he Went
For two summers he was chauffeur for Z. Il.
Mckinney, but his i'll health finally compelled
| him to give up his position. During all MS
sickness he was brave and patient and tried
to be cheerful for the sake of those who SO
tenderly cared for him. He was faithful in what
ever he undertook and to be trusted at all
times and it is sad that he should have been
stricken with that dread disease that has
caused the untimey passing of life that
might have been so useful. He made loyal
and true friends at Hebron among the
nurses, physicians and inmates, who sent low
ing messages of sympathy to the family, tell
ing them of his life there. He had the re-
spect of all his home friends and neighbors,
who extend the deepest sympathy to the
mother and only sister. The funeral service
was under the auspices of the Macabees, OF

tended in body. He was also member OF
