A Man Among Men.

The death of John w. Huntsman,
at his home at Scottsville last week,
after sixteen years of helpless, bed
ridden illness, removed from this
section Of the State a character at
once strong and remarkable.
A giant in physical manhood, he
was tenderness itself in his dealings
with the weak; rough in speech and
ready always for trouble, he was as
quick to forgive, and no man ever APP
piled in vain to him for help or assist
ance. He was a product Of a gener-
alton that is fast passing, and his like
will in all human probability never
again mark the earth.
In all the essential elements of hon
esty, manhood, character, bravery
and gentleness, John Huntsman was
a man among men and the soil of his
county was never opened to receive
more manly clay.
In peace may the God of our faith
ers rest his soul.-Franklin Favorite.

berculous men in the first 10000, 900

wider support by prominent PHYS
clans and public-spirited laymen for
