A Tribute 10 a Departed Friend.

The news editor Of this paper was
grieved when the Intelligence Of the
death of Dr.. ]. B. Buchanan, Camp
bellsville, reached Columbia. The
end came last Saturday week after a
lingering illness lasting for several
years, the last six or seven months
being confined to his bed. HIS father
died when the subject of this notice
was an infant, and some years after
his demise the widow was again mar
ried, to DR.. W. t. Chandler and in
the latter's home DR.. Buchanan was
reared. Soon after reaching his ma
jority the deceased became graduate
physician, and not long after opening
his office he became very prominent
in the profession. He was well-knOwn
to leading physicians over the State,
his opinions in regard:to treating OBJ
stinate cases being regard ed, as valu-
able. He was well educated and a
gentleman of much reading, and
very entertaining conyersationalist-
a companiOnable man, one whose
thoughts enlightened his associates.
The writer and the deceased we're
near the same age and they became
acquainted and associates when they
were boys. We fshed, hunted, jump
ed and played marbles iand ball to-
gether, and all his Gratis manifested
that he was manlyiman. He was a
devoted Mason and had reached. a
high rank, and .on Sunday following
his demise the local lodge and Marion
Commandry followed his remains to
Brookside cemeteryGwhere they were
lowered to mother earth, the latter
organization using its beautiful and
solemn ceremony.

George T. Hereford and Miss Mabel
r. Ewing were married at Lexington,
Dec. 26, 1917. Miss Ewing now Mrs.
HEREFORD is teacher of Modern Ian
guageS in the Columbia High School.
Miss Ewing came here fro m her home
at Stanton, KY, several years ago, and
by her charms as a young woman and
her high mplishnents and educa-
tional attachments won not only the
hearts of our people and school
Board, but the devotion and hand of
one of our best and most substantial
young men. We heartily congratulate
the "lucky boy" Mrs. George t.
Hereford will finish out her work
here as High School teacher during
the present term of school. Their
future home has not been decided
upon yet by the happy couple, but all
who know them are hoping that Co.
Iumbia will be their permanent resi-
dence The marriage of George and
Miss Ewing, altho they have tried
persistently to keep it secret since
the happy event, as now announced, is
no surprise to those who have sus
pected it all along We have had a
sneakiDg suspicion all the time that
