Chapman Huger Dies at Charleston i i ? -'"i A message to relatives in Camden announced the death at Riverside Infirmary, Charleston* on Saturday of John Chapman Huger, of that city. Mr. Huger was a brother of Mrs. W. D. Barrett, of Camden, and Mr. and Mrs. Barrett und Mr. and Mrs. Ohap Barrett went to Charleston to attend the funeral which was held at Magnolia cemetery Monday afternoon. Mr. Huger was born in Baltimore January, 1878, out spent most of hi^ boyhood in Charleston and Sumter, Where he was a well-known cotton buyer. He also bought cotton in Camden for a number of years and is well-known to maiiy of our citizens. He was the son of the' late John Chapman and Rachael Wardenburg Huger, and is survived by his widow and an adopted daughter and son?Pauline Huger and Franeis> Bultman. He also leaves one sister, Mrs.. W. D. Barrett and a nephew, Chapman Huger Barrett. The Sumter Daily Item, of Monday, contained the following relative to1 Mr. Huger's death: "Chap Huger, for thirty years a resident of Sumter and throughout that time except for the last year of his life, one of the leading cotton buyers on the local market, had a wide acquaintance throutfiout this section of the state and many warm friends, who are saddened by h(s death. A man of decided character, outspokeh and aggressive in the eg* pression of his views on all subjects in which he was interested, hf wgs ilia iiVa4 (a aa a ' intAA^ save wsv vj yv %,? ?% v iv mv we fellow, popular witff everybody]" what is better, he did have the ri* spect and confidence of business associates, and th$ sincere'and lasting friendship of thbse who knew him well. He was generous and charitable, but made no ostentatious display of his generosity, his .reward being found not in pribMe applause, but in the satisfaction derived from doing a good deed and helping those who needed help. He was in many respects the most strikingly individualistic man who has lived in Sumter in recent years, he was different from the average run, he thought his own thoughts, followed his own course, and despite handicaps that would^hnve^defeated a less energetic and determined character he made a success in business and of life. A long and painful Illness was endurad with the fortitude that was characteristic and he passed away in peace. A number of his friends went to Charleston today to attooA the funeral and pay a last tribute of respect to his memory. ,, Church Notices - Services at Antiooh Baptist church ur? paiHMjr, tfuiw rvn,-irwr ve. aatMugr school at 10 o'clock^ Mr. lather Pate, superintendent.
