Bristol township good woman
neighbor-a true friend, whose
passing will be mourned by not only
the family, but by a host of neigh
bOrs and friends. Our sympathy
goes to the family.
One good thing about the pri-
mary with the Democrats, ii we
don't get our choice, a good man
will win-who will be our choice in
November.
| BY the death of John H. Grand
staff, we have lost a friend with
whom it was always pleasure to
| converse. Honest and fair in all
his dealings, he won many friends,
who like your scribe will miss him.
In our items last week we wanted
to tell you that Mr.. and Mrs. Geo.
| Robinson, parents Of Mrs. C. d.
Nichols, were seriously i'll, which re-
minds us occasionally some cores
| pondence tells of someone from
somewhere visiting relatives. We
know the plaintiff or defendant, but
would always like to know how
they are connected When you get
old it takes more explicitly.
/
along with relief work, and direct
the more the question is asked why
| is SO and son on and so and so off? :?
We are informed that one of the
chief vendors of relief in Morgan
county has four jobs, and is draw
| ing in all over hundred dollars
per month. Good for him,-but we
feel to be able to appreciate need,
and know how to dispense reliet,
one should have felt the pangs Of
lhunger-the wintry winds blowing
through thin clothing, and SO on
and be man enough to say "to hell
with politics, the hungry must be
fed, the naked clothed"
We note by Fridays Times Re-
coder that our friend John Peyton
Of Blue Rock, suffered a stroke of
paralysis Thursday. May medical
skill, aided by all the elements
join TO speed his recovery
Tribute To Little Child
"And little child shall lead
them When those we have known
through a lifetime sicken and lay
suffering we and you are always
asking each day about their condi-
tion-but during all the years We
have penciled, we can remember of
no instance where we,-and We
mean by we all who know the Mil
Ter family, of a case that has called
out the sympathy and the prayers
|of folks who think God will listen, as
has the illness of little Marie. Day
after Gay through the past month
she has been sick; three weeks she
was cared for in Bethesda hospital.
In spite of medical care, loving at
tention of parents and nurses, yea,
the mother gave of her blood, but
all in vain. Friday morning about
six o'clock word came marie is
worse--it is only a matter of time. >
Later another message told that
little Marie had gone to join the
angelic band. Marie, little daugh-
ter of Oran and Inez Miller. was
born March 10. 1886, and died Fri
day, July %, 1898. aged two years,
four months and 10 days She is
survived by father and mother,
three brothers and one sister
Wayne, Esther Jean, Edsel and
Donald; grandparents, Mr. and Mrs.
C. s. Lawrence, and Mr.. and Mrs.
r. F. Miller. Funeral services were
held Sunday at Mt. Carmel, with
Rev Mr., Mowery officiating, in the
presence of large assembly OF
friends Interment was in the
lchurchyard cemetery
In looking over our record we
find little Marie Miller has been the
Cnly person whose home was in
Bristol township, dying in the years
1884, up to the present time, who
was under 80 years of age.
Some folks seem to think that
| all Christianity means is that they
and their family get a front seat in
heaven.
In last weeks Democrat. death
toll we read of the death of George
Startling, which gave us a shock that
|gives-but when we found the
sketch we were glad to find it
wasn't our George, who through q
few years was our neighbor-and
| through the years since has been a
true friend When Tanner gets the
roosters and sweet potatoes in shape
so they will make happy union
we will go over and see about them
