Death Of Miss DolIle Price.

The Bliss neighborhood were griev-
ed and shocked last Wednesday even
ing at $50 O'Clock when the news
spread over the community that Miss
Dollie Price, beloved daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. Rufus G. Price, had
answered the death summons and
that her spirit had gone to meet her
God, her affection being pneumonia.
She would have been twenty-three
years old had she lived until the 26th
day of this coming April. She was a
lovely girl, popular with all the young
people, and her going not only brought
great sorrow to her parents, brothers
and sisters, but to the entire neigh
borhood
She confessed her Savior some years
ago and united with the Christian
Church, and was a devoted follower
of her Master.
The funeral services were conducted
by Ed. z T. Williams, in the pres
ence of a large concourse of relatives
and friends. The minister, who knew
the deceased well, paid high tribute
to her life and character.
The interment was in the Johnston
burying ground, not far from her late
home.
There were many beautiful floral
offerings.

Will Remove to Mississippi.

The people throughout Adair coun-
ty will be sorry to learn that Mr.. G.
s. Harris and family will remove,
about the first of April, to West
Point, Mississippi, where Mr.. Harris
recently purchased large boundary of
land. In this removal Adair county
will lose in Mr.. Harris its most active
and enterprising citizen. He came
here, as citizen. more than thirty
years ago, and in every move, looking
to the betterment of the county,
he has been in the lead, and through
his efforts the people know what has
been accomplished for Adair coun-
ty He has been an ardent advocate
of good roads, building of bridges, and
for all other internal improvements,
and as a result some of the highways
of the county are five hundred per
cent. better than they were before he
came He is also given credit for being
the leader In the move to build iron
bridges across our streams, and as re-
suit, eight now span our water courses.
In securing the establishing of the
Lindsey Wilson Training School at
this place, he was one of the large
donators, and then worked untiring-
ly for the amount of money required
of the county for the location of the
school. When he takes his departure
it will be long time before the people
of Adair county will see his like.
He was also the editor and hacker Of
this paper for twenty years, surrend
ering the Office to Mr.. Hamlett, tt
whom he sold. eighteen months ago.
MIR. Harris is very much in love
with the citizenship of Adair, anC
when the time comes for him to say
good bye the words will be hard to ut
ter and the shaking of hands will bt
serious, bringing many tender emo
| tions.
He feels that it IS to the interest O.
his family consisting of his wife, anC
six sons and four daughters that HI
make this move. He doeynot expec
to be benefited socially in the re
moval, but the outlook for adding t.
his store of means and acquiring
homes for his children, led him tt
, the decision. He and all his famil,
will at all times have warm places il
their hearts for the people of Colum
; bla and Adair county, and they hop,
to occasionally visit the dear peopl,
to whom they are very much attached
Should any Adair countians concIud,
to go South, and come Mr.. Harris
way, the latch string will be upon tn,
