thew have been able to continue
through aid of mercenaries notwlth-
standing that their following is less

women's wearing apparel, was stolen
from the Cotton avenue store of w.

by him.
The burglar is believed to have
reached the roof of the Joyner store
by going out Of window of the Jack
son House, a second floor hotel, ad-
joining on the north. The proprietor
Of the hotel reported having heard a
noise as if some one were going out
of window about 8 o'clock Friday
night.
This is the third time this year the
Joyner store has been robbed, the
method used in the two preceding in
stances being the breaking of the
show window glass and pulling the
articles out with a stick. Mems ap-
parel principally was taken previous

HUNDREDS PAY
DIR. BURROWS
LAST HOMAGE

Hundreds of mourning admirers
and friends paid their last homage
to DIR. Lansing Burrows at his fun
eral which was held Friday evening at
6 o'clock at the First Baptist church,
of which he formerly was pastor, and
in which his body lay for nearly eight
hours following his death until it
was started late Friday night for its
final resting place at Nashville, Tenn.
All afternoon before the funeral ser
vices, and until the body left after
the services, friends called at the
church for final look at the face of
the man who for so many years had
one of the foremost figures in the
Southern Baptist church.
The main auditorium and the an
mex were completely rilled at the fun
eral services, which were unusually
impressive. The services were opened
by the church choir, which sang two
selections, and Mrs. H. 0. Jones play
ed that greatest of all dirges, Chopin IS
funeral march, on the pipe organ.
DR.. Lamar Sims, pastor of the AL
bany, who accompanied the daughter
of DR.. Burrows and her husband from
that city, spoke briefly on the subject,
at Shall Be Light" submitting the
thought that in the midst of the
gloom of death there is comfort to
the sorrowing friends and relatives in
the realization that one who had liv-
ed the life of usefulness that had
been exemplifed by DR.. Burrows was
really entering the light at death.
DIR. Carl w. Minor, pastor of the
First Baptist church, spoke on the
text, II. Samuel, 3-38: "Know We not
that a great man and a prince is
fallen this day in Israeli" In his re
marks he touched upon the greatness
of DR.. Burrows as citizen, an edu-
Gator, statistician of the church, as
secretary of the Baptist convention,
and as a preacher. He declared him
to have the greatest statistician the
church had ever had, an Office which
he held for a great many years up to
the time of his death.
Rev. Guyton Fisher, of the Metho-
dist church, and Rev. Geo. F. Brown
of the Central Baptist church, both
led in prayers.
During the funeral the air was
laden with perfume from a gorgeous
array of flowers, the tribute of sor-
rowing friends, which not only cover
ed the coffin, but large part Of the
space about the pulpit.
At 1924 Friday night the body was
started over the Central of Georgia
for Nashville, accompanied by S. R.
Heys and Fred Smith, escort repre-
senting the church, and the relatives,
Mr.. and Mrs, G. G. Mayes, Of Albany,
and Miss Mary Rochester, sister-in-
