not honor his own word has nothing
else worth honoring.

Last Sunday was a good day in our
home. First, it was a beautiful day
and u cousins, Mr.. and Mrs. A. L.
Hughes, came over from Saltillo to
spend the day with us. The dinner
was adequate and after it came Mr.. C.
A. Sykes, who sang a number Of beau
tiful sacred mad other songs in his
best voice-and that would have been
a treat within itself. At 2:30 we
boarded Col. T. B. Autry's big Jordan
for the port from which Col. Autry
and Mrs. Augusta Bird were to en-
bark at 3 o'clock on the Sea of Matri-
mony-which is noted elsewhere in
ttlo lSSuc.

was taken suddenly i'll on Friday eve
ming, Nov. 3, with commissions Of the
brain and continued to grow worse
until relieved by death in spite of ev-
cry effort that medical skill could
suggest. The remains were carried to
the home of Mrs. T. S. Bass, on the
East side of Lexington, she being the
grandmother of Little Ruhtie, and the
funeral with interment in Lexington
Cemetery occurred on Wednesday af-
ternoon. Mr.. Small and family re-
