THE FUNERAL OF 1t.
ROBERT ANDERSON

People from the adjoining coun-
ties as well as this crowded the
spacious Methodist church yester-
day afternoon to pay honor to the
memory of the brave young man,
the first to fall from Wilson county,
IN defense of his country.
The services at the church and
at the cemetery were very impress
sive. The casket draped with the
American flag was borne by COM
rades of the deceased soldier, while
the War Mothers and the members
of the Robert Anderson post fol-
lowed the remains to the church
and to their last resting place in
Maplewood cemetery, where a squad
under the command of Captain
Bats of the Wilson military com
pany fired a salute of three rounds.
The grave was covered with hand
some floral designs, mute testimon-
ials of friendship and esteem.
Rev. Mr.. Love, pastor of the
Methodist church, was especially ell
oquent and touched the hearts OF
those who heard him as he re-
counted the brave deeds of the
young man both in his private life
and his conduct on the field of bat
tie. He said that Robert Anderson
when wounded twice did not think
Of himself but enquired as to wheth-
er his men were safe. The many
good qualities of our hero, his friend
ships, his universal popularity, his
record at college came in for praise
But best of all said the minister
his devotion to his church and his
belief in a better life beyond is a
consolation to us all. and sets an
example toe spire every one. He
loved his NJ 3saAr. and he was called
home to evt De with the Lord.
Mr.. Love eessA from the words OF
the Saviour, Let not your hearts be
troubled. Ys believe in God, be
lieve also in ne," and from Reve
lations concerning the eternal city
