The Gave" was artistically dec
grated in colors appropriate for the

all who had assembled, were terse
with excitement, awaiting the prin-
cipal feature of the night.
The court, in limousines, drove

thirty, bearing in one of them, the
highly esteemed king, Mr.. John

He loved both of these orders. He
attended their meetings regularly
and he lived up to their doctrines
and teaching.
During the days of reconstruction,
Joe Hughes belonged to what was
known in those days as the White
Cameiias. They, too, were like our
present day Ku-Klux-Klan, being a
hooded order, organized for a certainl
purpose for which the member know
best.
Ku-Klux.Klan Hold Services.
The Klu-Klux-Klan held services
Saturday at midnight over the body
of JOS. Hughes. There were five in
number. They marched to the house
of death in the form Of cross, and
after entering the room, knelt in
prayer. At the foot of the coffin
they placed their emblem, a fiery
cross made of red roses. After the
ceremony they departed as quietly
as they came, having rendered, a last
service to their fellow man.
There were several instances in
Mr.. Hughes death that we're of more
than passing interest. On the same
day that he was buried, Mrs. Schroe-
der was also buried, for whom Mr..
Hugres had acted as groomsman
when Mrs. Schroeder was married.
During the time of the funeral, Mr..
Hughes daughter, Mrs. Carter gave
birth to a son.
The services were conducted by
Rev. s. L. Vail at the residence and
at Mt. Olivet Episcopal Church, and
by Rev. A. R. Edbrooke at the grave
in the Masonic Cemtery. Services
were also conducted by Crescent
Lodge No. 3, X. OF P. and by the
SITS. John Lodge, No. 1873 F. & A.
He also belonged to several other
minor organizations.
Mr.. Hughes was born in Liverpool,
England, in 1S45, and came to this
country in 1850. In 1866 he married
Miss Melaine Lorio. He was natural
lied in 1867. He received his edu
cation in the public schools In New
Orleans. Early in life he went with
the firm of Sanders and Cook, Con-
sulting Engineers, remaining there
until they dissolved at the outbreak
of the Civil War. He began his
long railroad career first on the Ope.
lousas r. r. and in 1871 he was
made station agent at Donaldsonville
La, for the N. o. Mobile and Chat
tanooga, R. n. which osition he
held until the liquidation OF that
road. In June 1875 he entered the
railway mail service and continued
in that service until he was retired
In 1920.
He is survived by two sons, Robt
G. and Jos. T., and four daughters
Dora NJ, Corinne c., Mrs. Spoonel
and Mrs. Chas. Carter. There wers
also several grandchildren and great
grandchildren.

Hughes was Grand Keeper of Records
and Seals OF the knights of Pythia'

To THE PUBLIC

| We hope the people will excuse
us for what can not be avoided,
we expect to publish tho Sneed-
vile News as an independent
Newspaper, treating all parties
alike, and giving both the
Democrat and Republic parties
far play, therefore we will
reserve the right to support any
candidate of our choice regardless
of politics. but you need not be
surprised ifin Stat and National
matters if We sometimes incline
to be a leetle Democratic, the old
Jefferson kind, not the mud sling
ing kind sometimes INDUCED in
but the kind that was advocated
by the founders Of the party, the
kind that stands for equal rights
to all and special privileges for
none. we are not controlled by
any faction or party, but we
stand on our rights that was
boughts:for us in 1776 and paid
for in blood. and this right has
always been very dear to the
to the people of the United States,
and we have no faith in any man
be he Democrat or Republican
who does not hold this right
higher than any political party or
any politician,
But both Editors OF The News
being Democrats we are not ex-
pected to fight own party in State
or National matters, in the
County we are neutral. and will
help a Republican candidate
provided he is our choice for the
office and a good man.
We love all the people of old
Hancock County, we were born
and raised here and love the
green hills and beautiful fields of
the county. and be assured we do
not intend to make any man or
woman our enemy on account of
politics! We ask your aid regard
less of political matters.
