COWARD TURNS HERO
IN TIME OF TRIAL
(By Associated Press.)

LONDON, June 25.-The story of
a convicted coward who turned hero
during the Tghting around Ypres is
:old by Irolessor ]. H. Morgan, Who
Scent five months at British Head
quarters, and whose Investigations
were summed up in the Bryce report
on German atrocities. He has just
returned to London. He says:
"There was a sergeant who had
lost his nerve and had been sentenc-
ed by courtmartial to five years PEN
al servitude for cowardice. Before
the sentence could be carried out the
Prussian Guard made their famous
attempt to break through our lines
and the sergeant, in the fighting which
ensued, fought with such bravery that
but for nominally being under arrest
at the time, he would have been given
the Victoria Cross. AS it was, his
sentence was quashed, and the incl
dent was responsible for the passage
of new act of parliament by which
a sentence on a soldier may be sus-
pended and the man given an oppor-
tunity of redeeming his character.

fundamental reasons behind it, If, as
is the supposition, there is a lack of

and there is no immediate prospect of
Temedying that lack, sugar will con-

the debating influence. Continuous
Tumors emanating from Washington

DEATH Of Mr.. re. GRACE.

The sad news was received on Thurs
day morning of the death of Mr.. T. f.
Grace, for many years a resident OF the
first ward OF this parish.
Mr.. Grace has been in bad health for
many months and had gone to Grand
Rapids, Michigan to spend the summer,
hoping to regain his health, but died
suddenly on Thursday morning at six
o'clock. Mr.. Grace was born in Rising
Sun, Indiana, 81 years ago, but moved
from that state to Hampton, Mississippi,
where he resided until he moved to Ten
sas parish in 1904, where he lived I'M
til the day of his death. Mr.. Grace was
one of the prominent planters of the
parish and one of our most valued citi-
zens. Few men who have moved into the
parish after having reached the age OF
manhood had won such placein the es-
TEEN and affections of our people as Mr..
Grace. Jolly, good natured, with always
a pleasant smile and kind word to all
always looking on the bright side OF life,
never respondent, even when in the worst
of health, his friends always felt better
and happier when he was around, and nc
gathering in this section of the parish
was complete without him. In his death
the parish has lost valued citizen and
his family devoted husband and father.
He leaves surviving him his wife and his
son, Mr.. f. c. Grace, to whom our peo-
pie and the Gazette offer deepest SYM
pathy.
Quite large delegation OF his friends
from the upper portion of the parish met
his remains at Hampton, Mississippi, the
place of interment, where they went to
pay last sad tribute TO his memory.

JOHN +. HARPER.

A pail of gloom spread over our
little community on Wednesday
morning at the sad news that death
had snapped the life cord of John
F. Harper, who died at his home
on the China Grove plantation at
) o'clock that morning. John had
been i'll for some time but was up
and in town on Monday, but on re-
turning home be developed swamp
fever and death resulted in spite OF
the best of treatment and medical
aid. Bright, young and intelligent,
only IS years of age, he could well
have been spared to be comfort
and Joy to his parents and to his
many friends who mourn his death.
As school boy, he had by his
kind and gentle manner, his happy
and sunny disposition and his bright
and pleasant smile, won the affec-
ton, friendship and esteem of both
the faculty and student body, and
it is safe to say that no other stu
dent held such strong place in
their affections. Around town, he
was known and loved by all, every
one being specially fond of Big
John Harper" as he was affection
ately called.
The people of this community
bow their heads in sorrow and their
hearts beat in unison with the ach-
| ing hearts of his bereaved father,
mother, sister, and brothers, to
whom the people OF the community
and the Gazette extend their very
deepest and warmest sympathy.
His remains were tenderly born
to the grave by the loving hands of
his school mates, while mound OF
flowers, tribute of affection from
his girl companions. marks his last
resting place. The funeral was pos
sibly the largest that we have ever
seen in this parish, including about
one hundred friends in the process
sion and representing nearly every
section of the parish, testifying elo-
quently to the love and esteem with
which the young man was held by
our entire people, and many were
| the words of comfort and consolation
extended the grief-stricken family.
The funeral services were conducted
by Rev. Mr.. Fox, pastor OF the M
f. Church, who about a year ago
| received John into full membership,
and that he had been a consistent
member of the church and regular
attendant at Sunday School was
mentioned in the very pretty eulogy
of the deceased paid by the reverend
gentleman.
The Superintendent of the Sunday
School has requested the Gazette tc
express to the bereaved family the
deepest sympathy of the entire
school in their grief, trusting that the
knowledge that their sorrow is shared
by his friends and companions, who
loved him for his own manly worth
and open-hearted nature, may be
to them some comfort and in some
measure mitigate their grief.
