ILLINOIS OLDEST
GRADUATE DEAD

Word has been received in the city
Of the death of Judge T. j. c. Fagg,
the oldest graduate OF Illinois College,
being a member of the class of 1912.
He passed away last week at the home
of his daughter, Mrs. c. W. Bright,
400 West Gate Ave. Park View, St.
Louis, Mo. He was over 90 years of
age. He was born in Eastern Vir-
gnia and the family came West in 49,
SO. In 1907, Judge and Mrs. Fagg
celebrated their 60th wedding ami
versary.
BY the death Of Judge Fagg, Rev
George W. Harlan of the class of
1876 of Pennington, Mo-, becomes
the oldest living graduate. Timothy
Ward Of the class of 1S45 would be
in line for the honor, but for several
years the college has cndeavored to
locate him and it is believed that he
has passed on TO his reward.
The Hon. T. J. c. Fagg was one of
those men who honor anything they
are connected with. From Missouri
Mr.. Fagg came to Illinois college in
the early days when it was n matter
of pluck and determination to be
known as n student of an institution
opposed to slavery. He maintained
consistent position in this regard
becoming a Union officer, being q
colonel of Missouri volunteers. He
was certainly pronounced supporter
of the Union, when to be such, in his
state, tried mems souls.
Mr.. Fagg was Republican and
when his party came to power he was
elevated to the Supreme bench of his
state.
Judge Fagg took great interest il
Illinois college and frequently came
over to its festivals of thought or Of
social gatherings.
While Judge Fagg passed away
at the home of his daughter in st
Louis, his home in active life was ir

JAMES RANKIN DAVIS
PASSES AWAY

Last Monday morning, November
9th, James Rankin Davis, an aged,
revcred and esteemed citizen of our
city, passed from earth into the great
beyond, after n lingering illness of
several months, originating chiefly
from extreme age and scnility.
Mr.. Davis, who was father Of our
townsman and amiable merchant, Mr..
Lon V. Davis, of the Pennington Mer-
camille Co., lived to see nearly four
score and ten years, being Ss years,
10 months and q days of age.
Mr.. Davis was consistant and ex-
emplary Christian, whose worthy and
remarkably steadfast example Of con-
sistency and steadiness of purpose
IN the course of life is worthy of
emulation.
He departs this life; he leaves this
mundane sphere to enjoy eternal life
in "a world not built by hands" and
leaves behind a host Of friends and
relatives to mourn their loss.
The Times extends word Of COM
fort in that death is not death, but
only transition, a casting off of this
mortal coil to take on Immortality,
and in conjunction with the commun-
ity in general, extends sympathy and
coincidence in comfort Of the relatives
and friends in their hour Of grief.

MRS MARIA LOUISE sCHAEFER
Though in the midst Of life we be,
Snares of death surround us"

Though in the midst Of life we be,
Snares of death surround us"
The solemn truth expressed III these
two lines was verified by the early,
unexpected death Of Mrs Maria l..
Schaefcr. She who on Monday OF the
past week was comparatively hale
ard hearty, attending to various do
mestic duties, was suddenly stricken
down by death before the week had
ended. Her abrupt departure from
life caused profound sorrow, pain and
grief to her immediate friends, to her
many relatives, to nCr sisters and
brothers-in-law from afar, and cs-
pecially to her young husband, Mr.
VIM. Schaefer, .Ir. She was married
to him on the 18th of December, 1912
Hardly two years was she thus per
mitted to stand at his side as his help
mate, sharing with him the joys and
sorrows Of this present world. An
infant daughter, born in the throes Of
death, will never know its mother.
Her sudden demise prompted such
large numbers as have seldomly here
tofore crowded into the Lutheran
Church to gather together and thus
show their sympathy with the bercav-
cd family in their sore distress. Rev.
F. w. Weidmann, the pastor, spoke
comforting words from the bouk OF th>
prophet Hosea. His theme was:
Come, let us return to the Lord, for
He hath torn, and He will heal us;
He hath smitten, and He will bind us
up
Mrs. NJ. l.. Schaefer was the third
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Peter Nell
of near Pennington. Her mother
preceded her in death about ffteeen
years ago. She was born on the 18th
Of August, 1894, and by the rite Of
baptism became affiliated with the
Lutheran church. of which she was a
beloved member. As already stated,
on December 18th, 1912, she became
rhe wife of Mr.. William Schaefer, Jr.
Last Friday morning, somewhat after
eight o'clock, she fell quickly asleep,
having lain in state Of unconscious.
ness for almost four days. Her death
was caused by puerperal commissions,
Her death is mourned by her young
husband; by her father, Mr.. Peter
Nell, and her step-mother; by four
brothers, Henry, John, William and
Daniel, all Of this town; by two mar
ried sisters, Mrs. Frank thinner Of
Pennington, and Mrs. Annie Gerseh
of Detroit, Mich; by three step-bro-
Tiers and one step-sister, and by a
large number Of friends and acqnaint-
ances.
