Fukman. Secretarr. • In levins memory of Httln Lelaurl, the only.aon of Mr. and Mre. A. M. Given*, departed thia life Nov. 4th 1805. For 4 yean, one mouth and 28 days God lent hint to gladden the hearts of those who loved hn»4nd made home brighter and happier, but now he has gone to make heaven nearer and dearer and draw Ma, and Pa, and the loved ones up there, but the Angel oi death came - and claimed our nettle buy, oar pet Hint our joy. He was a bright, beautiful and loving child, bis mother’s com fort, his father’s joy. His image will never be erased from eur memory. It Is hard to part with such a dear little creature, but we must submit to the will of God, bopiug to meet him in a better world God grant neve* to part v througtt the ages of eteruity. In his 'early life he has left us In sot row, to mourn hisearlyde.itb. Little Leland will be missed, yea misaetT at homo and by many loving friends. The ovely voice that once cheered our heats is still, yes etill to never be beard again, but we have one consolation that he is resting in the midst of those gone before where there is no more sickness, no more pMin, no more death. Ob how lorg the time seem* te us who are left hut let us re member *that we can go ro him if he can not come to us. Yes dear little Ice land has gbne to a wondeful place where there shall be no more weeping for God shall wipe away ail tears. He cajhe for just a little while, just Idu^ ’“enough to wake u« feel boW empty life has beea without him and then—lie slept. Oh Father, M ether let ua try to' keep our hearts and lives pure and fe- rasmbtr that eur baby boy. a. unsoiled as any dove, is waiting to welcome us over there, waiting te take us hy tbe hand and laad us to him who said suf fer little childrea to come uuto me for of such M the kingdom of heaven. Twas not in anger nor la wrath— Tbe reaper came that day; But an Angel visited the green earth— Aad carried our darling away. A precious voice from us Is gone, A voice we loved is still, A place is vacant ia our home, Which never can be filled. But once again we hope to meet thee, ‘ When the day of life Is fled; Then in heaven with joy to greet thee, Where no farewell tear la shed.

Wesley Lawton's support for the As»o< iationsi year which began the 1st of November. In view of the fact that some of the church on did net contribute at all to this object last year, so that when we went to tbe Association there was more thau a hundred'dollars lacking of what we had premised, We have decided to increaee the amounts asked of each v eh arch. We ask you, te raise for this object one-fourth of the total atpount asked of you hy the Association. This la the firat ameuut fixed by the Asso ciation te bo given te foreign mission*, end, of course, count# on your assess ment*. If more ChAh the anwnmt asked for Brt». Lawton is thus raised, owing to the help of the churches which did net help last year, all abovp this amount will,go to the general work of foreign missions. Since the Associational year begins In November and uot iu January, wo wish to have the collection* for Bro. Lawton taken earlier than they were last year, so ask the churches to make their 1st collection In January, and the 2nd not in April, but in March; then the other* in June and September, so as to hare the matter out of the way in October, when the churches are labor ing to ralta funds for other objects. We hope each paster will bring this matter before his churches light away, and get them te agree to take the 1st. collection certainly in January, and the 2nd in March. 1 -t We ask thaiall collections for this ob- . loot be sent to Rev. Whi. Hayneswprth, Denmark, 8. C., who will send receipts fer them. Checks on any bank will be f ood, and cost neither party anything, n brotherly love your committee. L. A. Thomson, T. F.

Mr. 0. H. Best, of Great Cypress township, lost his dwelling together with all its contents by fire on Friday.
