bell, Of Walhalla, and Miss Cora
Campbell, also Of Walhalla. Mrs.
Campbell was truly good woman.
She was member Of the Methodist
Center NJ. e. church more than 40
years ago. The funeral service was
conducted Mt the Campbell home at
1880 a. m. on Feb. 21st, Rev. l.. NJ.
LYDIA, Of the Baptist church, con-
ducting the service in the presence
Of large number Of friends who
had gathered to pay the last sad trib-
ute to the deceased. The interlnent
followed, being made in the Neville
cemetery, west Of town There are
many who will join with us in ex-
tending to the bereaved ones sympa-
thy in their hour of sorrow. The
remains OF Mrs. Campbell were laid
to rest by the side OF her husband,
who preceded her to the grave about
fourteen years.
There are many here and else
where who will learn with deep re-
grct Of the death of Israel Good, the
sad event having taken place at his
home near Walhalla on last Sunday,
Feb. 18th, at 6 o'clock a. M. He
had been in exceedingly feeble
health for long while, and was
confined to his room the greater part
Of the time for the past two years.
Mr.. Good was born in Ohio about so
years ago. On Sept. 30th, 1866, he
was married to Miss Magdalena
|lBerkholder, of Ohio. To this union
five children were born, all of whom
are living. They are J. H. Good, Of
Cordele, Ga; Mrs. j. H. Lawrence,
Of Middleton, Ga; Mrs. j. L. Single
fnp nf E1nr{da, of Uol
halla, and Mrs. Effie Ernest, Of Glen
Vile, N. c. Mr.. Good moved to this
section from the North in the year
1896, locating on the fine farm on
which he died, just mile from Wal
halla. Mr.. Good was an up-to-date
farmer, orchard man and stock
raiser. He took great pride in his
work ard did it we'll. He was one
Of our very best citizens, always
standing for the right and out and
out against the wrong. He was
! great lover Of home and home ties.
He spent the greater part Of his time
. in his home with his loved ones.
He provided we'll for his wife and
children. thereby making them hap
py and content. His home was not
only happy place for his loved ones
and himself, but for all who entered
the home, where the stranger as
we'll as the intimate friend was
made at home and welcome. Mr..
Good was a deacon in the Rocky
Knoll Baptist church and had held
| this position Of honor for a number
of years. He filled the office we'll
and honorably. He was true friend
and helper to his pastor and was
willing to spend nd be spent for the
cause of Christ. In the pa ssing of
this good man Oconee county has
lost one of her best citizens, the set
tlemcnt in which he lived fine and
ever helpful neighbor, and Rocky
Knoll church a true member. But
let us remember that God doeth all
things we'll. Our Lord giveth His
blessed sleep, and again let lis listen
/ to Jesus as He cells, "Come unto. Me
all ye that labor and are heavy la
den. and I will give you rest" The
funeral was conducted on the 10th
Of February at 1890 a. m. by Rev.
l.. NJ. LYDIA. pastor Of the deceased,
after which the body was laid to
rest in West View cemetery, Wal
halla. We join with others in ex-
tending to the bereaved ones SYM
pathy in their sorrow.
