He received only a common'school education, for in his sixteenth year of acre he volun teered to serve his country tnrough three years of dreadful strife, and this he did courageously and valiantly in the fore front of battle, carrying with him through life scars from the wounds received on the battle field.

Little C. "W. Long, son of Mr. and Mrs. C. W. Long, died last Sunday morning at their homo in Atlanta. It was sick only a few hours with something like congestion of the brain. It was sixteen months old, and had never been sick until the end came. It was just a little rosebud and the Lord taken it just as soon as it was a flow er. It is hard, oh, so hard, as it was our precious little grand child, and it don't seem as we can recognize its sad death. The father and mother have my deepest sympathy in their sad and lonely home. It was brought here and taken to Long Cano for its last resting place. It is gone but never will be forgotten, as we will cer tainly remember to decorate its little grave with llowers. Grandmother.
