Mr.. ]. H. Carter answered his last
earthly call on Tuesday of this week.
He died of locked bowels just after
having undergone an operation at

Belle Wright in Grenada, and carried
Wednesday to Spring Hill church bury
ing ground where, after services con-
Quoted by Rev. r. A. Tucker of the
Methodist church, they were laid to
rest to await the final resurrection.
Mr.. Carter was little past 83 years

had been a member of the Methodist
church and died fixed in the faith that
means eternal life. At the time of his
death he was serving as Treasurer of

Wonderful Health Giving Properties
of BeW SprinQS Water.

So much inclined are most people to
look for the good things in life away
from home that oftentimes it happens
that what is sought elsewhere is right
at ones own door. In hardly any
particular is this true to greater ex-
tent than in seeking health resorts and
the quests for waters that mean restor-
alton to health all of which calls to
mind Bew Springs water which can be
had in abundance right in GreL ada coun-
ty. The value Of this water for dysintery,
indigestion and bowel disorders of all
kinds, has long been known and only
the lack of capital by its owners has
prevented its being made we'll known.
Messrs. j. F. and w. D. Singleton of
Dubard are putting the properties of
this water now before the public in a
very general way and would be pleased
to answer any correspondence about it
or to make shipment of water to any
part of the country. Write them.

BarneS.GOdbOId.

On Sunday. July 16, the marriage of
MIR. W. J. Barnes of Grenada to Miss
Mae Godbold was solemnized at the
home of the brides parents, Casey

Only immediate members of the

Preceding the entrance of the bridal

young matron and cousin of the bride,
sang very impressively, 80 Promise

charms of the bride were brought out
by her handsome tailored suit, green
and blue blocked taffeta with pongee
trimmings. She wore white hat with
gloves and boots to match and carried
Killarney roses.
Mr.. Barnes is a son of Mr.. and Mrs.
w. B. Barnes in Grenada and is a
Young gentleman of kind and oblig-
ing disposition and of those manly ele-
ments of character that count in busi-
ness and in all the true relations OF

have given their best thought to theil
children and Mr.. Barnes conduct gives
unmistakable evidence of his splendid
parental care. Mr.. Barnes holds re-
sponsible place with the American Elk
press Company.
Mrs. Barnes is a sweet, attractive
Young woman and it is needless to sa!
that She will be equal to the sacred ant
important duties she has assumed.

w. E. SMITH FOR CITY TREAS.

In the proper column will be seen
the name of W. f. Smith who sub
mits his candidacy to the voters Of
Grenada for the office of Treasurer
made vacant by the death Of j. H.
Carter. The Sentinel could hardly
say anything good of Mr.. Smith that
has not already been thought of or
said by almost every citizen of Gre
NADIA. He has been so long identi-
fled with the life of the town that
it would be difficult to enumerate
the many things with which his
name is connected that it will be an
enduring monument to Grenada
and a consolation to his posterity
for several generations. His well
known honesty, his absolute candor
and his fidelity to truth and right
are sure guarantees that any funds
committed to him as treasurer
should be honestly accounted for
and it is certain that those who
favor him with the ballots will
never have cause to regret It. This
paper feels sure tina the voters will
give "Uncle Billie's" candidacy due
consideration.
