Sudden Death of MIR. Julian
Strother.

Saturday morning on u streets
Mr.. Julian Strother was greeted by
his many friends, apparently in his
usual health and good spirit. Sunday
night the Death Angel visited the
happy home, and took from the fam
lily the beloved father and husband.
About four o'clock Monday morning
he passed away almost before a ply
stefan could be secured.
Mr.. Strother was born and reared
near his present home, and was an
honored citizen for all these years,
beloved of his neighbors and family
for his kindness of heart and his loyal
vet unobtrusive friendship.
Mr.. Strother was married many
years ago to Miss Ellen Walker, a
daughter of Rev. Edward Walker
who was a rector of the Episcopal
church here for a number of years
and who was honore1 and beloved.
There are three sons and daughters
of this marriage, Mrs. w. L. Duno-
want, Jr., and Miss Charlotte Strother
and Lieut.. Julian Strother. The latter
had visited home a few weeks ago
and had returned to his military du-
ties in Iowa. He was too far away to
reach Edgefield before the sad rites
were performed, but came as soon as
he could reach here:
The funeral was conducted at the
home by Rev. R. G. Shannonhouse,
and the remains were brought to
Edgefeld for interment in the village
cemetery. The body was carried to
the Episcopal church, of which Mr..
Strother was a member, for a few
hours to await burial, Many friends
and relatives went to the home and
to the grave to pay their last tribute
to his memory and to carry sympa-
thy to the bereaved family. Beautl-
full flowers covered the last resting
place of our lamented friend.

Sad Death of Mr.. H. L. Bunch.

When the news was passed from
friend to friend throughout u coun-
ty that Herbert Bunch was very i'll
many expressions of concern and anX
iety were heard, but "hope which
springs external in the human breast
mingled with our fears, and our ap-
prehensions were partially allayed.
This. however, was only temporary,
and without foundation, for on Tues
day afternoon the message came to
Edgefeld that this splendid citizen
and valued friend had passed away
at his home about seven miles from
Augusta.
The funeral took place at his home,
and was conducted by Rev. P. B. Lam
ham. Many sorrowing and sympa-
thetic friends gathered to do his
memory honor, and to show their
love and loyalty to the dear mother,
Mrs. Sallie Bunch and the sister, Miss
Lila and cousin, Mrs. Baynon who
constituted the Immediate home cir
Gle.
Before the death of Mr.. Bunch, his
brother from Charleston, Mr.. Walter
Bunch, came and Remained by his
bedside till the end. His brother, MIR.
H. G. Bunch, who resides near the
old home, wa constantly at his bed
side. OF the large family of nine
children, there remain but three now
to comfort the declining years OF
their mother who is now in her 6Oth
year.
The remains were laid to rest in
the family cemetery near the home,
beside those of his father and broth
ers and sisters. His immortal soul has
gone to a better country where one
by one his family and his friends
. will go to meet him.
Mr.. Bunch had been a consistent
and devoted member OF Hardys
church for many years and was a
faithful, loyal and useful citizen and
was taking an active part in all the
calls of his country which the present
time demands of all the true and
the brave.

CHAPTER XIII.

They reached the Khyber famished

King had given a certain password and
had whispered to the officer command

rOpean clothes yet, and none Of his fol-
lowing suspected him Of being an Eng
lishman.
"a Rangar on a black mare has gone
down the pass ahead Of you In a hur-
ry," they told him at Ali Masjid. "He
had two men with him and food
enough. Only stopped long enough to
make his business known"
"What did he say his business Isl"
asked King.
"He gave sign and said word
that satisfied us on that point!"
"Oh!" said King. Can you signal

Ismail looked nasty at that but did
not answer, although he seemed to
have a hot word ready. And thence
forward he hung his head more, and at

manner was unconvincing none the
less, and King found it food for
thought.
