The Lamented Stone.

tomorrow is the nineteenth an
niversary of the lamented John
Marshall Stone.
This brave, strong, manly man
was laid away in casket covered
with Confederate grey at his home
10 Iuka, where his noble widow still
lives, and every year loyal and low
ing friends send Mrs Stone flowers
to be placed on the grave OF her
devoted husband.
Col. Stone was apyramidal fig
ure in both peace and war. He was
twice elected Governor of Missis-
sippi. He first became Chiel Ex-
ecutive after the eradication of car
pet bag rule, by virtue of his Presi-
dency of the Senate, and then served
an elective term of four years.
His second election was for term
of four years, which was heightened
two years by the Constitutional Con.
vention, as were the terms of all
other States officers, terminating in
1890. Governor Stone served in all
twelve years, a longer period than
any other Governor in the history of
the State. After his retirement
Governor Stone became President of
the Merchants Bank and Trust Com
pany of this city, and was President
of the Agricultural and Mechanical
College at the time of his death.
The first Stone administration

honest, so constructive and so eco

that on the 26th day of March, 1900,
Gov. John M. Stone departed this
life at Holly Springs, Miss.
For more than quarter of
century prior to his death the inhu-
ence OF the great mind and superb
character of John Marshall Stone
was prominent and positive factor
in all of the varied important pub
lie affairs of the State. In every
walk of his eventful life, whether as
a soldier, legislator, private citizen,
Governor or college president, he
was the exponent of the highest type
of intrepid public and private man.
hood. Perhaps no man ever lived
in Mississippi who possessed more
the esteem and conf
dence of his countrymen, and,
though firm, aggressive and posi-
tive, in conviction and demeanor,
there were none who dared impugn
his motives or question his honor.
BY his stainless character, his zeal
as all advocate and champion of the
rights of the people, and his dis
public services in peace
and war, he was one of the most
and conspicuous men of
his state and section. daily Clar-
