DIES AT KEIFFER.

Mr.. Lacy >Hayslett, son of Mr.. and
Mrs. John F. Hayslett near Keiffer
this county, departed this life May
20, 1920 after lingering illness Of
tuberculosis. The funeral service
was conducted by Rev. 6. w. Adams
at Sun Rise Chapel near Clintonville
After the funeral service, which
was attended by a large congrega-
ton, the body was laid to rest in
the church cemetery to await the
Resurrection morning.
Lacy was about 80 years old and
was born and reared near Keiffer,
and some years back-the writer
does not know the date-he was
united in marriage to Miss Roxie
Godbey. He lived for awhile after
his marriage at Detroit, Michigan,
but when his health failed he NOV
ed with his wife and baby boy
back TO West Virginia.
He leaves beside his wife and
little boy, a father, mother, four
brOthcrs-Wesley, Clyde, Loniel
and Lemon, all of this county, and
four sisters-MM. Cora Fisher,
Mrs. Elog Robinson, of this county
and Mrs. I've Jeffries, of Piper City,
ILL.,, and Mrs. Florrie Scruggs, of
Rainelle, and a host of friends and
relatives are left behind to await
the summons of the Great l Am.
Lacy was kind and affectionate
husband, and a good neighbor, al
ways ready 10 lend helping hand
to the poor and needy. He had
spent the latter part of his life in
travel seeking relief but found
none. He seemed to be resigned
when the end drew near, and was
patient in waiting the coming of
the Master. He told his friends that
his life had been short, but God
had called him. he was ready to 20
and was not afraid TO die. He liv-
ed in humble submission the last
few weeks of his life until the
death angel said, the time has come
depart and be at rest, and now may
we all so live that when the call
comes we can say as Lacy said, "if
ii be Gods will am ready to co."
May God bless and comfort the
bereaved ones. Let us be comfort
ed in believing that our loss is his
eternal gain.
A Friend.
