launching out in business for himself
and within short time became pro-
prietor of the leading barbering es-
tablishment of the city, having white
and colored patrons. AS the years
rolled by, he developed financially,
and in proportion to his success he
helped his fellow-men to an almost
unlimited extent. He was ready
helper in the time of trouble and was
popularly known as the colored
bondsman. After a brief illness of
four weeks undergoing an operation
for chronic stomach troubles at the
Mercy Hospital he succumbed Friday,
December 9th, at 8 o'clock. He leaves
wife, Laura Fountain, and son Will
liam, nigh school pupil, to mourn his
irreparable loss. Funeral ceremonies
