J. M. Burleson

Died, at the home of his son,
Scott Burleson, near Verona Sat-
urday morning. j. M. Burleson
in his elghty-sixth year.
Mr.. Burleson's death was due
to the infirmities of age. Until
a few years ago he was an active
vigorous man, but for the past
two years he has been confined
to his room. During this time
he was mlnistered to by his son
and his wife in whose home he
lived, and also by other men,
bers Of the family who lived near.
Deceased belonged to that
sturdy stock who. in the pioneer
DAYS of this country, made
homes where forests were found.
He was always a man of great
energy and closely looked after
his business matters. He was
a neighbor that always-respond-
ed to the calls of those in dis
tress. He took an active part
in the affairs of the county and
in his community and was always
found on the right side of every
proposition. For many years he
was member of the Christian
church and his life was daily
exemplification of the teachings
of his Master. He leaves sever
al sons, Bill. Tom. Jeff and
Scott Burleson, and one daughter
Mrs. H. McBrayer, and num-
ber of grandchildren to mourn
his loss.
The funeral took place Sunday
morning at Old Union where
Rev. Williams Of Amory paid a
fitting tribute to the memory of
the deceased. Many friends
gathered to pay their last tribute
of respect.

O. w. Swarner Kills Self

0. w. Swarner took his own
life Friday night last in a room
of the Chisca Hotel, Memphis.
by sending a bullet from a pistol
through his temple. He left
the following pathetic note to his
wife:
Dear Wife: Iknow personally
that am not right mentally and
l cannot think of going to an
asylum. | trust that you will
forgive me. Kiss the babies
boodbye for me, and boodbye for
the last time. With love, your
husband, Orville." !"
Mr., Swarner and his family
moved to Tupeio about three
years ago and bought a home on
Main street. He was the repre-
sentative of the Cudahy Packing
Company in this territory and
was an Industrious salesman. He
kept right up with his business
and was popular with the trade.
A short time before Christmas
the family went to Rankin coun-
ty where Mrs. Swarner's family
reside. They have two bright
little children, a boy and a girl.
Mrs. Swarner spent several days
in Tupelo few weeks ago. Mr..
Swarner made a deed to his wife
to the property here and also to
two lots IN St. Louis about ten
days before his death.
The entire community deeply
ssympathize with the bereaved
wife and the little children over
whose life a dark shadow has
been cast in the loss of a husband
and father.

FOR IDEALS OF MANKIND

WASHINGTON, April 30.-General Joffre, one of the members of the French commission, now in the Unit ed States, issued statement today that France cherishes the hopes that the American flag will soon be fly ing on her battle lines.
 General Joffres statement is in part as follows: Led by it's illus trious President, the United States has entered into this war by the side of France in defence of the ideals of mankind. France, which has long recognized the valor of American soldiers. cherishes the con, fident hope that the flag of the Unit ed States will soon be unfurled on our fighting line. This is what Ger many dreads. France and America will see with pride and joy the day when their sons are once more fight ing shoulder to shoulder, in defence of liberty. Victories which they will certainly win, will hasten the end of the war and will tighten the links of affection and esteem with which have ever united France and the United States"
