HI* Ssd Death?Anil the Beautiful MtHi Tribute Which n Friend I?ay* to 4 111* Memory. ' William IT. Simmons died at the home of (.u Mr. J. T. Simmons in Greenwood last Tues- orn , day. Sept. I2ih. _ Dentil Is always sad. It orings gioomy aim .,, t serious thoughts to all *nd fills the brightest Hmo day with clonds and dArkuess. The rosy tint* duct ed morn Is colored with sombre hue? and hr- , ,j. snrnes an aspect of sadness at Its touch. The . separation of fond lies, the obliteration ot , de.ar wishes, sorrow i.nd suffering take pbtce. Sne Bright hopes are frustrated, brilliant pros- ' ui ptets niHde dim and long cherished dreams ful,[ are futile, intentions are forever crushed nod S(1C . loving remembrances alone arc left to cheer _ the once happy hearts. Sadness is the com- fema mon debt ot all made compulsory by the s^e frailty of our na> ure and humanity. But lew deaths are sadder than that ot Will H. Sim- ^ motiB. In the midst of youth scarcely reach- hers trig manhood, d?*alh claimed and returned ^jr him lo his mother earth. were Little did w<* think a month ago that the ter ? hearty and hai>ds<>me lorm of Will Simmons \\t, would >>e tiaiiVtormed to clay, ti>at bischeerHit look arid over smiling lace would be for- ?,,?( ever hid from our view. But he Is gone, yes ^ . tone far away from loving eyes, admlrim: visit and affectionate sthzcs ana is now, ?c uum, w?., with those whom his cheerful and loving ills- b?r positlon were inore aptly fit and with whom 'r' liU smile is more congenial. There lie can al- t,efoi ways tear that music whtob he mom fond'y loved. Clustered bells chiming their sacred anthems will ring In order and concord, the tlD.,? birds of the air will whistle their tunes, the music of thespheies will breali forth in tones >t, too refilled lor human ears and will delight u angel bands, then heavenly strains sounding W()i, sweetness and harmony will proceed from joy I lie harpsichords of Uod's chosen mi net rem ( and all will be ecstacy and music. Heaven is a place of music: his was a soul of music. need" Beautifully concordlng with tills refined *. , and noble taste was his loving disposition ' Always the sarue, whether highly elated or xr., bowed with grief, on the streets, at work, In Th| the drawing room, or at home, be displayed .ast that noble trait of character, an affectionate ,:"d care for the feelings of others. Few who met ' him never knew him: few who knew him , ^ 3 never loved him. It Is a virtue to sympa- of f'h thize to teel deeply lor all, but It is the dlvlu , est Insttncti'f n.an to possess a brotherly love anda tender attachment for every acquaintance. With such instincts the head and OT1... heart of this y?.nng man was filled. He wa? one of those chaiacters lu whose presence ?-n(j| tbere emanates pleasure and gladness and the gaiety arising from his talk was always .. . welcome and Inspiring. Nover d?*Ji cted, nev- hiK D er sorrowful, aUays the same kindlieurted Droy and generous imy. Surely such a lile is worth u,w living aud such a fiiend one of heaven's richest blessings. His lainillar face will be mls?- npi(r?

During the morning the f?lU sun tried to sbtne out and rid Itsell of obsta- jn clef, but ever and anon misty clouds covered roH(|, Its ebinli'g orbs, as if throwing a garh ol wj, mourning across Its red plow.

One by one. the students 5! esolutely dipped their fingers into the oncoction, and with many a wry 8 ice sucked the abomination from 11 heir fitigers.
