SPLENDID CHRISTIAN
CHARACTER PASSES AWAY


Mrs. Elizabeth Ann Aston died
at the home Of her brother, Hon. r.
j. Watkins, at Ravenscroft Thursday
morning Of last week, after an III
ness Of many months, due to chronic
bronchitis, and the funeral services
were conducted at the Ravenscroft
Chapel Friday morning at IL o'clock
by the Rev Charles I. Wright, rector
of Grace Episcopal church, Memphis,
after which the remains were ten
Derby laid to rest in Ravenscroft
cemetery by the side of her hus-
band, who preceded her to the grave
20 years ago.
Mrs. Aston was born December
8, 1874. in Memphis. Her parents
were DR.. Edwin F. Watkins and
Mildred johnson Watkins. and hence
was n years of age at the time Of
her death.
At the tender age Of one year she
was baptized in Calvary church in
Memphis by its first rector, Rev.
Philip Aston, whose nephew she
afterward married. She was de-
vout and consistent member of the
Episcopal church.
During the terrible epidemic of
yellow fever in Memphis in 1873
Mrs. Aston, with a sister, volun-
teered as nurse and did a great
work in that capacity. In the year
1876 the deceased was married to
Mr.. Samuel A. Aston, who was a
member of the old Aston family,
quite prominent in the history of that
community, at Ravenscroft Chapel
by Rev. Charles Collins, Of revered
memory. There were no children
born to this union.
Mrs. Aston is survived by one
brother, Hon. 7. j. Watkins, Of this
county, and one sister, Mrs. /. s.
Hayward, of Charleston, S. c., and
a number of other relatives througEA
out the Southern States.
Mrs. Aston was Christian lady
of highest culture and refinement,
always modest and retiring in her
disposition. During the war between
the states she made her home in
Virginia, and in the dark days of
the reconstruction period did much
bv her loyalty to the cause. Her
life was a benediction to all who
were fortunate enough to come in
contact with her, and her home
radiated with true Southern hospi-
tally. She will be greatly missed
BY her family and all who loved her,
but she has entered into her heaven
ly home, where rest awaits her
after labors well done.

While many farmers Of Upton
county are beginning to realize the
situation in which they are placed
by conditions over which they had
no control, but which they can REM
edy to great extent if they will
only heed the advice given out by ex-
perts and reduce their cotton acre
age and put greater efforts to di-
versification IN the future, there are
some who do not look upon the mat
ter as seriously as they should The
Wall Street Journal, published in
New York City, views the question
in this way, when it says that while
the Southern states viii greatly re-
duce the cotton acreage, they win
plant much more food and feed crops.
This will beoa distinct gain to the
South, and possibly to the world in
general. A short cotton crop is not
to be desired, but the South would do
better If IT devoted far more acre
age to grain, grass and livestock.
BY a more diversified farming sys-
TEN it might supply the world with
cotton on smaller acreage, and in
cidentally contribute considerably to
the worlds food supply instead Of
being an importer Of so much Of
what it eats. Good may come from
the present adversely Of the South.
