J. FROST WALKER
GOES TO REWARD

J. Frost Walker, for % years
clerk Of court of Richland county and
one Of the best known and most be-
loved man in the county, died at his
home, 1913 Senate street, yesterday
morning at 10:30 o'clock after long
illness. Mr.. Walker had been in a
critical condition for the past several
days and while his death was not en-
tirely unexpected, it nevertheless came
&C rreat shock to the members of his
family anu friends.
The death Of Mr.. Walker will bring
sorrow to large circle, not only in
Richland county n where he was for
more than 80 yeaSs in public life, but
also throughout the state. Mr.. Wal
ker would have been 50 years of age
had he lived until November 81. He
was born in 1851.
All the members of the family were
here when the beloved man died, with
the exception of his son, George E.
Walker, of Charlottesville, Va. Young
Mr. Walker attended the Democratic
national convention in San Francisco
and in returning to his Virginia home
he went by way Of Washington and
Oregon. He was reached in Portland
Ore, Saturday and is on his way here
now.
In the death Of Mr.. Walker the
state of South Carolina and Richland
county lost one of their best citizens,
a man of high character and sturdy
devotion to the interests of the COM
monwealth. His death came after
months of suffering and vain attempts
to restore health.-The State.
Mr.. Walker was the father of J
Frost Walker, Jr., of our city and his
many friends extend their sympathy
to him in this sad hour.
