Gathered to His Fathers.

Died in hospital in Columbia last
night about ten O'Clock, Mr.. W. Thomas
Sprott, OF Jordan, aged 81 years. He
was a man OF generous impulses and
never forgot the hospitable ways OF the
pioneer. The stranger, though beg
gar, never failed to find food and shelter
if he sought it at his hands, and be was
at home at the bedside of the sick, and
delighted in all kinds of neighborly
Offices He had borne adyersity bravely
and enjoyed prosperity quietly. He bad
fled the various relations OF life, as
ION, husband, father, brother, friend,
and flied them well-who can do more?
1T all times, under all circumstances
be walked in the well beaten path OF
Righteousness and when fully conscious
that he was nearing the last of earth,
he was fully impressed with the idea
that at the end of time eternity began.
and that bright faith which sustained
during those trying hours OF suffering
would only grow brighter and brighter
as he journeyed toward the Infinite,
and the final gloom of death be dispelI-
ed by radiance of Gods love. Could all
live the Just and upright life Mr.
Sprott lived, and die in his trusting
faith, death could no longer be called
the King OF Terrors," for he inspired
90 terror there. The dying man and
surviving family looked forward with
the same eye of faith to the brighter
future where this temporary separation
would end in an eternal reunion.
The body was brought to Manning
on the ten o'clock train this morning
and taken to Jordan, where the funeral
services will be held tomorrow at IL
O'Clock
Mr.. Sprott leaves wife, several
children, two brothers, and host OF
friends to mourn his demise. as he was
loved by all who knew him. We extend
our heartfelt sympathy TO the bereav'
ed family, as none but those who have
sat in the shadow of great bereave-
nent can Justly weigh such q sorrow as
