Of the occasion. Mr.. Blackburne has
done more towards making a sue

interchangeable labors has at last plac-

Card of Thanks.

Editor Commercial, Union City,
Tenn: If you will kindly grant US
space in your valued columns we
wish to EXPRESS the gratitude of our
hearts to the many friends who gave
us their presence and cynpathy on
the occasion of the burial of our sis
ter, Mrs. A. J. Murphy, in East View
Oh the 9Th inst. To each we feel
dep cense of gratitude. Nothing so
touches ones heart as to feel and
know, in such q sorrow there are
those who will lay aside the demands
and duties in the home, and men of
business affairs laying aside all secu-
lar interests to render such service.
We saw faceC there that are always
present on such occasions. Promi-
nent among them-Sam d. Woosley.
Sans business Is never so urgent or
so important that he will not lay
it aside to render service and sym
pathy around the last resting place
OF our dead. Indeed, this is COM
mendable and worthy the emulation
of Us all. To d. P. Caldwell and his
good wife are we devrutly thankful.
For years only street separated the
two homes and across this street they
would come at any time or any hour
on their mission of mercy and SYM
pathy, ministering to her in her
sorrow and Affections. No brother
or sister could have been kinder or
more thoughtful or concerned more
for her welfare. So often she has
spoken of their kindness to her. Mr..
and Mrs. Hous Briggs were ever
mindful of her in her affection and
never tired or grew impatient in
rendering any aid that would light
en- her burdens, and also Mr.. John
T. Walker, who was and had been
her adviser since the death of her
husband some years ago. In him she
had the utmost confidence and that
confidence was never shaken or be-
trayed. This good man oftentimes
has left his office and gone to her
home to render aid in giving her
counsel, and during all these years,
his services were gratuitously given.
Pure religion and undefiled before
God and the Father is this, to visit
the fatherless and the widows in
their affection" These acts of kind
ness and service of which we have
spoken are evidences and fruits of
the religion of Him whose mission
in the world was to do good to all.
