Richard Chalmers Leavell. To say ) any friend "Hle is dead" alwav brings sorrow to;the hearts o.Z our citizens. but when a strong. young, : brave life like Richard Chalmers Lea vell leaves this world and passes into the Great Beyond the community double mournz. It was indeed a shock to the entire town yesterday to learn that Chal mers Leavell died at ten o'clock the night befor. Sunday night. at the home of his parents. Mr. and Mrs. R. Y. Leavell, in Boundary street, after a illness of one week of pneumo-.ia. Rith*d Chaimiers Leavell was born on October 3rd, 1877, and had spent almost his entire life in New <berry. The funeral services will take place at Rosemont cemetery this af ternoon, Tuesday, at 4.30 o'clock. He was the second of the three liv ing children of Mr. and Mrs. Leavell, and was a young man of fine charac ter, high ideals, and noble purpose in life. Consistent in all his relations in life he was loved and honored by those who knew him best. The gener - al cousensus of opinion even by those who did not know him intimately is that he was a most worthy and ex eellent young man, and one that the ommunity could least afford to lose, epresenting as he did in every phase of his young- life the highest type of a Southern gentleman and an Ameri can citizen. will be missed on the streets, among bis comrades, at his post of business, and in his church work e3 pecially,will there be a great vacaney, but most of all in the charmed home eirele where loving hearts held him as so very dear will he be missed. We extend to these sad hearts our deep est, and sincer6st sympathy. Mr. Leavell was a consistent mem ber of the Knights of Pythias, and the Red Men, and. a devoted member of the Baptist chureh. He was a part ner of the firm of R. Y. Leavell anC Son. We feel under the shadow of this sad and sudden death like exclaiming with James Whitcomb Riley when he wrote: I cannot say, and I will not say That he is dead. Re is just away! With a cheery smile and a wave of the hand He has wandered into an unknown land. And left us dreaming how very fair It needs must be, since hre lingers .there. And you-do you, who the wildest yearn For the old time step and the glad re Think of him faring on, as dear In the love There as the lkve of Here. Think of him still as the same, I say, He is not dead-he is just away. While sad are the present hours to the loved ones now left behind, sweet must be' the -thought that they have the blessed assurance they will meet their lost and loved one in a fair land beyond the sky-when a few more short years have slipped away. Want Dr. Wolling to Stay Here. At a meeting of the official board of Central Methodist, church, Newberry, on Sunday. March 14, 1909, the fol lowing resolution, was adopted "It having come to the knowledge of the board, composed of the stew ards and trustees, that there is a pro bability that their pastor, Dr. J. W. Wlling, may be transferred to an oher field, Resolved, That this board, while ex pressing its entire loyalty to the au thorities of the church, desires to say that the removal of the pastor at this time would be a souree of deep regret to the board and, in its opinion, a mis fortune to the congregation. The board, therefore, hopes that Dr. Woll ing may be permit-ted to continue his work and pastorate here, a.t least un til the close of the present confer ence year." EVERY-DAY PSYCHOLOGY.
