A TRIBUTE OF RESPECT.

James Baily Rosette, son of MIR. anC
Mrs. Thomas Benton Rossette, was
born in Peoria, ILL.,, September 23d,
1881, and died neal Cliftonville, Miss.
July 10th, 1918. At an early period in
his life his parents moved to Pawpaw,
ILL.,, where they lived until he reached
the years of manhood. He then &c.
cured employment, with a packing com
pany and spent about five years at PEG.
ria and Bloomington. ILL.,, in the SER
vices of this corporation.
He was united in marriage at Paw
paw, on November 23rd, 1904, to Miss
Ida MISE Englehart. To this union was
born five children-four daughters, Dor
othy Adele, Mildred Irene, Olive Will
ma, Evelyn Anita, and one son, James
ROLAND. He Joined the Northern M. E.
church at an early age.
About five years ago Mr., Rosette,
learning something of the genial cline
and fertile soil of "Dixie Land" decid-
en- to cast his lot in the "Sunny Solth''
and with his family, movedto this, Nox-
ubee county, Miss.
Mr.. Rossette, by his indomitable
spirit and untiring energy, was rapidly
making a success as a farmer and stock
grower. He was public-ipirited, loyal
to his country, and was regarded in his
neighborhood as an honorable. honest
man. To have attained such a place in
the hearts Of those who knew him, is
something worthy of emulation-a rare
jewel, to be striven for by all of US.
Why the Divine Master should strike
down a strong, sturdy m%an-just begin
ming his life work-take him from the
wife of his youth, from his precious
children, and away from the associa-
tons of mis- friends, neighbors, lis one OF
the histories that man is unable to un-
derstand.
But we believe there is a better land,
and in that better land a beautiful city
whose builder and maker is God. That
after awhile, when the fierce storms of
this life has ceased to rage, about US,
if we have been faithful, the Master
has promised that We shall inherit q
mansion in that beautiful city.
To his loved n e the deepest sympa-
thy of the community is extended.
A FRIEND.
