mere Sunday at the funeral of Will
ssam C. Atkinson, in the African Meth
sodist church, when a large section of
the spacious interior set aside for the
purpose was filled to overfowing with
white men and women of the most
prominent families of the city, met to
pay tribute of respect to a worthy
member of the colored race. The flor
al offerings, covering the casket and
banked around the pulpit, were largely
tributes from the white friends of the
deceased.
Born in 1856 in Georgetown county,
William Atkinson grew up on rice
plantation, there learning from the

ners, which, coupled with native judg-
ment, honesty and devotion to duty, in
whatever sphere it came to him, had
brought him not only business success
and the respect and high esteem OF
all who knew him, both white and
black. The negroes from all the coun-
ty literally swarmed in to attend the
funeral.
A fitting and impressive service was
carried out by the various pastors OF
the city and the selected choir. The
Rev. Perrin, pastor of the deceased,
delivered a panegyric.
"Bill" Atkinson died last Thursday

for some months. For the past twen-
ty years he has conducted very sue
cessful green grocery here and gen

nearly everybody to greater or less
extent and his standard of doing bus
mess was such that everyone had i'm
