James Caleb Cook, was born in Newberry manhood he gave himself to the Lord by confirmation. and lived - Consistent Christian throughout his long life: an example to all. When the tocsin of xar sounded and South Carolina called her sons to take up arms ir her deiense he pr PimpC responded. Il e was a mem b-:r of Ct. HI.. Third Regiment. S. C. V. (Capt. 1). A. Dickert's company.) fc went through this terrible strig ,ie unhurt and returned to his native cot,rnty to rebuild his home. He was married in 1865 to Miss Elizabe:h Sheeley, who together with seven children, survives him. When Mt. Pilgrim churc'h: was or ganized he was a charter member and was elected elder, which office he held unti! 'his death. Our departed brother was fOr 12 or more years superintedent of Mt. Pilgrim Sunday School, giving his best efforts to the training of the youth, for in them he recognized the future workers of the church and the state. We., the committee of Mt. Pilgrim Evangelical Lutheran church, would place on record the -high esteem in which he was held by his brethren in the work of the church, and his zeal in the cause of the Master. T'hat this tribute be spread on the minutes of the church council of Mt. Pilgrim church, ca copy sent to the family, The Newberry Herald and News and the Observer for publica tion. THE PACIHC MUTUAL Life Insurance Cnmpany of California Organized 1868 on "Old Line" Plan. Read what one who is recognized au thority on the subject, has to say: "Of late the magazines and daily papers have had much to say by way of critit cism of certain Life Insurance Compa nies, and especially with regard to the Legal Organization of such Companies, and of the manner of their control. These CRITICISMS do not apply to The Pacific Mutual, but DEMON STRATE the Truth of the Assertion that 'for POLICY-HOLDERS The Pacific Mutual has the BEST Legal organization." It is not controlled by ONE or Two men, having no pecuniary interest or responsibility save as policy holders, or recipients of salary; But it is controled by a BOARD of fifteen Directors, not mere dummies, but Stock holders in their own right, holding a large amount of the Company's stock, and Policyholners as well. The Direc tors of the Company are men of high Financial and Commercial standing, and are by LAW'made RESPONSIBLE for the acts of the Officers of the CORPO RATION. "The Company has a capital stock of $500,000 Fully paid up in GOLD coin, but while this Capital. and the Stock holders' responsibility afford to Policy, holders the GREATEST possible Secur ity, it Costs participating Policyholders NOTHING, but every dollar paid into the Company by them and the ACCU MULATION thereon, is applied to their BENEFIT. There is no Other LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY trans. acting business in America whose Pol icyholders, by Legal enactment, are so Safe-guarded as are the Policyholders of The Pacific Mutual."
