CAzETTE'S TRIBUTE
TO DIR. A. f. MOORE

The following editorial tribute to
DR.. Avery E. Moore is paid by the
Arkansas Gazette this morning:
"Dr. Avery E. Moore, who died at
Conway Monday night, was commend
ed to all who knew him by his sin
cerity and his straightforward char
acter. He was, besides, man who
possessed ability to discharge with
satisfaction all the duties that fell
to his hands. His character and his
qualifications were recognized by his
fellow-citizens when they elected him
state auditor for two terms.
Always the good citizen, always
ready to do his share of the work of
the world, and always doing it well,
Avery E. Moore was a man whose
loss to our state must be a source of
deep regret
The funeral of DR.. Moore was held
at Mount Pleasant cemetery, near
Enders, yesterday afternoon. Serv-
ices were conducted by his pastor,
Rev. George w. Williams and were
attended by large number of rela-
tives and friends. Among those who
went from Conway were Mr.. and Mrs.
w. B. Clayton, John c. Hamilton and
A. NJ. Ledbetter.

Dawson, pastor of the Christian

due to stroke Of paralysis caused
by his excitement upon learning OF
the marriage Mr.. King is uncon-

The marriage came as q great sur
prise to the girls family. When Mr..
King heard of it, he set out in pur-
suit of the couple. At II o'clock he
learned they had gone to the home OF
the boys father, John NJ. Stone, who
lives about three miles north of Con-
way. Arriving at the Stone home,
he endeavored to persuade the girl,

returned to Mr.. Kings home.
Shortly after arriving at his home.
Mr.. King became i'll. Being subject
to paralysis, he feared he might SUI

for Mr.. Stone, who came at once to
the home of his bride, where recon
ciliation was effected and the youth
full pair received parental blessings
Mr.. King soon thereafter relapsed in
to state of coma.
1t is said that Mr.. Kings objection
to the marriage was the youth of the

license was procured at Clarksville
Only three witnessed the ceremony
The King girl left home last night ir
