Martha Jelcoat. On the 28th day of March last, Marf tha Jefcoat, wife of Elijah Jefcoat, came to the end of her long pilgrimage and fell asleep, and now rests from the cares of her long, useful life. She was born October 12th, 1829, and the days of her sojourn overran man's alb lotted three score and ten by twelve | years, Ave months and sixteen days. | She was a daughter of 4'old Squire Povia Williamson,"who was for many years the respected magistrate of his ? 1 * J - ?V^rr'nltr on. ooriiwu tuiu a uiguij vw f teemed for his sterling worth and L manliness. Martha Jefcoat was from a family of a long succession of Baptist ancestry 'on her mother and father's side, and F in early life, before marriage, she joined the Baptist church and her entire life of christian usefulness was one of unbroken loyalty to her chrisI tian faith and her life was that of a I consistent, gentle christian woman L and a true expression of her faith in her Savior, and a befitting example Jf for the imitation of her children. Daring her married life she became the affectionate, considerate mother of nine children, three of whom and her husband preceded her to the spirit land by many years. She was the grand-mother of sixtyp one grand-children and the venerated great grand mother of sixty-two great; grand children. She was a true, devoted wife, a kind, faithful mother, a lirm consistent friend. Honored by her husband, reverred and cherished by her children, respected by litr friends and beloved of God. Although old, she never became ? heipless and preserved her consciuscess to the end of her life, but old age and the ills of mortality and sickness drained a once hearty body and constitution to the inevitable wreckage of the body and the imprisoned spirit took its flight to the mansions for which her life's piety and faith had prepared her. Her body was buried in the grave * yard of Salem Baptist church of which , she was for over a half century a con| sistent member.

After the jury had brought in theverdict of not guilty in the Dentithorne case the commonwealth asked for the acquittal of the other five defendants. The acquitted men were charged with lynching, among them being Chief of Police U&ted.

Indeed, many of them are fakes of the highest order. Revenue for no real benefit has been the policy of the promotors of these "cure alls." There has been introduced in Danville recently a medicine that, if the testimony of some our best citizens can be accredited, has real merit. It is known as the Milam cure. The effect of this medicine upon some of those who have been induced to try it has been marvelous as a restorer of health. The company who manufactures this remedy that has such a tremendous sale is composed of gentlemen of the highest social and moral standing in Danville.
