One of Camden'* Oldest Citizen* I'uxa cd A v.. ay MoiHay. ? On Monday afternoon, April Und, Mrs. Kebeiknh Wo. Uman Del^oachu "id! to sleep' after mi \lln??ss of more than ?f\ month, trow which she never recovered. In the puling of thin lovely Chrtati&n character, Camden loses one of her most lovvd and valued women, one who IMd a warm place in every heart that knew her, a ltd her death brought genuine sorrow to all who were privileged to call hei frknd. Hut we feel that she has join ed that great cloud of witnesses to whom we look for inspiration ar\d guidance and that *he has left an ex ample worthy of invitation. Her love ly character, sweetness of deposition, loyalty., and devotion to friends and family are traits to be admired and desired. She was a life long and faithful member of the Methodist church and her death leaves a void in the church circles that to the last claimed her interest and best ef forts. "1 serve''' was her motto and .the service was glorified b.V' her own utter unconsciousness of it. Her religion was of a nature a rock on which to lean when trials came. She was Miss liebeckah Workman, born and reared in Camden. In early life she was married to the late Wil liam Elliott DeLoache. Their 'mar ried life was spent in or near Cam den 'and a large- family of sons and daughters reared, In her life she showed them ever the way of right ju)d truth and justice, in her death she has left them a priceless heritage ( , V of blessed memories and holy bene diction of peace and faith and love that passeth understanding. Mrs. l)eI*oache is survived by n lar^e family of children and grand children. The children surviving are: W. E. DeLoache, of Columbia; Mrs. Hettie Delay, of Birmingham, Ala.: K. Blair Dt*Loach<\ J. H. DeLoache. W. K. DeLoache, Benjamin P. De Loache, Mrs. Willis Shehorn, Mrs. W. Robin Zemp, Mrs. John T. Nettles, all of Camden, and three devoted grand children, whom she reared from in fancy, Mrs. A. K. Blakeney, Charles, Elliott DbLoache, of Camden, and ?lames DeLoache or^Savannah. The ftfheru! services were solem nized at the Methodist church, Tues day afternoon, her pastor, Rev. W. H. Hodges officiating. The active nail bearers were her five sons and ner grandson. She was laid to rest in the old Quaker cemetery under a mound of flowers. Even in "The Valley of the Shadow" hope sees a star and faith hears the flutter of an angel's wing. "We see but dimly through the mists and vapors; Amid these earthly damps, What seem to us but sad funeral tapers, May be Heaven's distant lamps." WaH Well Known Here. At his home in I'ittsfield, Massachu setts, on March 24th, Mr. Edward Hull died after a critical illness of several weeks. Mr. Hull has many friends in Camden who will regret to hear c^f his death. For many winter.? he came here with his wife and family and learned to love the place, so much so that he compiled a pamphlet on points' of interest in the town. Recent ly he had expressed himself as "wish ing that he could go back to Camden for the rest of his life." Those who knew Mr. Hull admired him for his cheerfulness of disposition, his un usual powers of mind and friendliness of spirit. Although a great sufferer for many years, he made a brave fight for life and seldom complained of his trials. The sympathy of all his friends will go out to his wife and family in this hour of bereavement. Thanks The Firemen.
