Her Elegant Home. Death

Sent Orphanase.

The death of Mr.. G. A. Long,
while not entirely unexpected, was
nevertheless a shock to his host
of friends here. He had been in
declining health for the past several
months, but recently he had improv-
ed to such an extent as to be out
and mingle with his friends, but
the end came quietly and peaceful
y in the early morning of Monday.
Mr.. Long was originally from New
berry, but Trenton has long since
claimed him by adoption. He has
always been useful and substan-
tial citizen, contentious, courte-
Gus gentleman and his place in the
community will be hard to fill. But
in the home circle, around his own
ireside where his ever faithful and
now desolate and broken-heated
wife is left the grief is most keenly
felt. To her and his devoted chill
dren, Mrs. Walter Smith and Mr..
Fred Long, Jr., his sisters and his
brother we offer our deepest SYM
pathy. Mr.. Lcng was member of
the Lutheran church at Newberry,
but was an attendant of Harmony

he was buried, large concourse of
friends and relatives being present
to pay their last tribute of respect.

glass and silver, with a tall crystal
vase of long stemmed pink roses,
