n?mh of Wm. II. Brook*.
William H. Brooks died at home In this
village, on Tuesday morning, May 12, 11*91, at
7:20.
Ho was born on October TO, 1822, and lived .
in this county all his life, having moved to ,
town In 1882. '
Ou the 2-ith of November, lfi">2, he married
Miss X. W. Gillespie.and to them were born ,
two children, one of whom, Mrs. George S. <
Wilson, survives him. .
Mrs. Brooks died on the the 2.">th of Febru- ,
ary, 1806, and on the 30th of December, 18-58, (
be married Miss Annie B. Carrington. B.v ,
this marriage six children were born, four id ,
whom survive, namely: Mrs. P. A. Cheat- ,
ham, Mrs. R. C. WIIsod, Mrs. J. C. Furguson, .
and Miss Maggie \V. Brooks.
Mr. Brooks was a farmer all his life, and
when voung, he was a hard'vorker, economi- !
cal and thrifty. By his skiII and energy he j
was always well off in this world's goods, .
and he leaves a considerable estate. For
about twenty years he had pretty much retired
from active work, and lived at ease.
He was one of the founders of the Warrenton
Presbyterian church, under the ministration
of Rev. H. c. Fennel.
Mr. Brooks, in his dealing with his fellowman,
was always honorable. Asa neighbor
he was kind and obliging. As a friend he
was sincere and fallbiul. He goes to ibe
grave having the respect of all, leaving no
enemies behind.
For some ten or twelve years his health has
not been good, and lor two months he had
been confined to his house. Although he was
qnlte feeble, his death was unexpected. Ten
minutes before his death he was thought to
be In no immediate danger.
The funeral will be in the Presbyterian
church, this village, this morning at 9 o'clock.
He will be buried at Sharon, tne family bu
rylng ground.

Last week Captain and Mrs. L. W. White <

children area father's pride and a mother's j
joy. The people honor the household that lias I
been so signally blessed. There is no vacant
chair around that fireside. I

In a letter to Sir Horace Mann,
Horace Walpole wrote:?"Young

" no doubt suggested by the common
ch sajing, that the last resource of peoay
pie who have became disappointed
with the world is to turn saint. A
jST great preacher has answered the sneer
m- in these words : "Let the world cur]

lBe the causes of the prodigal's return. If
he affections crushed in early life have
driven one man to God; if wrecked
and ruined hopes have made another
man religious; if want of succeis in a
profession has broken the spirit; if the
human life lived out too passionately
has left a snrfeit and a carviog behind
which end in seriousness ; if one is
brought by the sadness of a widowed
life, and another by the forced desolation
of involuntary single life; if, when
the mighty famine comes into the

pleasure untried, then, and not until
then, the remorseful resolve is made?

18Young
People'* Tongue**
Many of our troubles are the resul
b of our own actions. The larger hil
ad of these troubles comes from the im
proper use of our tongues. The roya
poet was aware of this in his day
' "Come, ye children, hearken unto me
I will teach you the fear of the Lord
Wbat man is he that desireth life
and loveth many days, that he may
see good ? Keep thy tongue from
mm. evil, and thy lips from speakingguile."
Even the meekest man, Moses, spake
unadvisedly with his lips, and in conid
sequence was debarred from entering
upon the promised land.
?e There is a common fault which is a
he fruitful source of evil. It is n >t regarded
so base as lying or slander, but
it is nevertheless a great evil. I mean
the taking up of evil reports against
to our neighbors. These reports may
in have some foundation in fact, or they
may be sheer fabrications; but we canil
not handle them without injury to
nn rool uoq vvltVinnf of of n S n or mi r nlinr.
acters aud reputations. "Keep thy
te* tongue from evil" is the only safe
o? rule for ourguidacce. We wish not that
a others may speak evil of us; we must
not speak evil of them. The tongue
?e is an unruly member, and needs careful
watching. Happy is the man or
er woman that keepeth the tongue from
ye evil and the lips from speaking guile.
There is no better evidence of magnanen
mity and self-controle; and "greater
he is he that ruleth his spirit than he
ir. that taketh a city."
