Death of an Edgefield Young
Man In North Carolina.
Mr. Hausford Albert Mime died
in Weldon, N. C.. on Saturday
morning and bis body was laid to
rest in bur village cemetery on
Monday morning beside the grave
of his lamented father, M. H.
Mims. The funeral was held in
the Edgefield Baptist church, of
which church be was a membpr.
In the summer of 1895 Mr.
Mims went to Weldon to manage
a large oil mill for Senator Came
ron, directing the affairs of the
mill very satisfactorily until it
was destroyed by fire several year*
afterwards. In the meantime, he
became so attached to Weldon
and the people of the place that
he decided to cast his lot perma
nently among them. After the
burning of Seuator Cameron's
mill M*. Mims devoted a portion
of his time each year to the con
struction of oil mills and to in
stalling oil mill machinery in
that section of North Carolina.
Between the oil mill seasons he
gave direction to his farming in
terests m the subuibs of Weldon.
Owing to the great distance to
Edgefield-Weldon being near the
Virginia liue-Mr. Mims' visits
to his old borne were not very fre
quent. His last visit wa^ in Feb
ruary 1904. Being then Strong
and robust, a splendid specimen
of manhood physically, bis loved
ones suspected nothing of bis re
cent failing health. In his letters
he never referred to h?3 physical
condition, fearing that it would
cause anxiety on the part ol those
at home.
Distressing tidirgs reached
Edgefield on Thursday afternoon
last by tolegram from Mr. Mims'.
physician to the effect . that he
was critically ill with pneumonia.
His youngest brother, Mr. Joe Eve
Mime, left for WeHon on tbp first
train, reaching his bedside about
4 o'olock Saturday morning. Al
though desperately ill, Mr. Mims
recognized his brother who bad
come to minister to him, and
seemed greatly reli ved by bis
presence. Between the paroxyras
of pain he conversed calmly for
8evpral hours, being fully con
scious that be was nearing the
end. His mind was clear aud be
was perfectly rational to the fin?t
momeut. Mr Mims' last word was
an affectionate "Good-bye" to his
brother in whose arms be breath
ed his last at 10:35 o'clock Satur
day horning, heart failure being
the immediate cause of death.
Because; x>f his long absence
from home and very short illness,
Mr. Mims' death was a great blow
to bis relatives and friends. He
issur'*: *d by a devoted mother,
Mrs. * '."ate Mims, e. sister, Mrs.
J. F '?en, and three brothers,
Mr. ?. J. Mims, Mr. J. L. Mims
and Mr; J. E. MimB. **
Letters from sympathizing
friends in Weldon state that Mr.
Mims was universally popular,
everybody being bis friend, and
that be will be greatly missed.in
his adopted North Carolina home.

the beloved wile of Mr. Jerome P.

was done to arrest the ravages cf
the' dread disease but all lo no

We keep the stables well disinfected and clean,
so that when a horse or mule goes out of our stable
they are not at all infected and are ready for use
and our loss from sickness is not so great as we give
them prompt attention when sick.
DSfOur customers get the benefit of all of these
advantages.
