We we have not got the Death ol Mrs. Daisy E. Parker. We regret to record tho doath, on Thursday "last, November loth, 1000, at Atlanta, Ga., of Daisy E. Parker, a be loved daughter of Mr. aud Mvs. W. W. Burley, so well known and ref pocted in this neighborhood. She was born July 14th, 1880, and was married to Mr. Parker on Auguut 28th, 1001. Her body was embalmed and brought to Walhalla, where tho funeral took place on Friday at the Baptist cemetery. The funeral procession arrived at the Walhalla Bap tist church about half-past three o'clock and was met by Pastor G. H. Judd and the Rev. E. S. Jones, of the Methodist claire h. The service was impressive. Prayer was offered by the Rev. E. S. Jones. The hymns, "Safe in tho Arms of Jesus" and "Nearer My God to Thee," we 3 sung, being favorite one? of the de oeased. After the Scripture reading Pastor G. H. Judd spoko to the sorrow ing mourners. He said that no human sympathy oould go deep enough to give real comfort; only the Lord Jesus oould bind up broken hearts and send the Com forter. One said to him o" ber dying bed : "God knows the rigr me to take His ohildren home." The cord of love whioh bound thurn to the departed was not severed, but now pulled heavenward instead of earthward. The word ceme tery meaus sleeping place. There would be an awakening iu the morning. The Germans formerly oalled it God's acre. The precious seeds wero sown oue by one and God's harvest time was coming and there would bu a glorious reunion, when all of Christ's people would awake in His likeness, and as we have borne the imago of tho earthy Adam, wo should also boar the imago of the heavenly. Ho know that the departed sister had gone to bo with Jesus; washed in the blood of the Lamb, and faith could say of her : Just gone within the voil, where I shall follow ; Not far before me, hardly out of sight; I down beneath thee in this cloudy hoi low, And thou abovo mo on yon suuuy height; There to begin a now and happier story; Thy little tale of earth now told am done; . Those outer shadows for that inner glory Exchanged forever, Oh ! thrice blessed ono ! Some earnest words to those unpre ftared to die followed. He quoted tues that ho had copied from D. L. Moody's pocket Bible: My pulse is the clock of my life, It shows how my moments are flying, It marks the departure of time, And tells me how fast I am dying! Somo day it would be said "He has gone"-but where ? Throe deaths were montionod : 1. Spiritual doath-the separation of tho soul from God; and some present might have dead souls in living bodies: the Lord Jesua was preseut and could raise to spiritual lifo. 2. Tho doath wo mourn to-day, the separation of tho soul from the body. 8. Eternal death, the separation of both body and soul from Goa forever. Death came either with a spade or a sythc. Ho rejoiced to know that to thc dei tai t ed sister death came with a spado to transplant hor from oarth to a oetter world. To some death came with a syt he. to cut down. The Rov. E. S. Jones gavo a vory help ful, praotioal mossago for daily living. He said friends should remember us whou we ar? gone by our kind words and actions. Some people wo are glad to forget, but others leave a fragrant memory and wo can never forget them. A fow years' ago the loving words and actions of ono dear to him woro so impressed ns still to bo frosh in his memory. Ho re membered the deceased by her bright smile and words and sunny disposition, all hough only onoe in her company. Kind acts aud bright words and faco will loavo a happy roraombranco as woll as a blessing at tho time. At tho grave anothor favorito hymn of tho deceased was sung, "We Shall Moot on That Beautiful Shore Bye and Bye." Tho sorrowing father said aloud to all: "God grant that it may bo so." Tho bereaved family is known and be lo vod by a largo circle of friends, and also rospooted overywhnrn. and we ex press our sincoro sympathy with thom. Pall Bearers: Messrs. W. B. Dil worth, Jr., A.

[Anderson Mail, November 17th.] The oil mill at Townville was de stroyed by fire at 3.30 o'clock this morn ing. Tho origin of the fire is not known. The Haines were li rut. discovered in the prcas room of tho oil mill, and soon spread to the other rooms. Practically the entile nil mill plant was humed. The giunery escaped. A small wooden building, containing S. R. Johnson's wood shop, was also ouvued. The Town ville Oil Mill was owned by a stock com pany, of which L. N. G?**r is president, lt was established about I'troe years ago and has been very successful. It was unique in the history of cotton seed oil mills, in that it was located ten milos from a railroad. The plant was insured for $10,500 in J. ll. von Hasseln & Son's agency, of this city, and this probably covers the loss. Pine Grove Items.
