Harney firown Ba*terlinf Barney Easterling: is dead —and the old town of Barnwell is wrapped in gloom, while those who knew and loved him best bow with grief- stricken hearts beneath the shadow of an awful desolation caused by the sudden and tragic ending of this noble and useful life. On May 12th, about nine o’clock P. M., while re turning from hi* .plantation some disUnce from town, the car which he wa* driving was overturned in i wash-out in the road, and Mr. Ea*' terling was thrown into the water and pinned down underneath the car where death resulted from drown ing.

' In all of the relations of life- son, brother, husband, father and friend—Barney was all that heart could desire or love anticipate. In hi s immediate domestic circle, there existed a beautiful tie- of devotion not always seen in this day and time, and now, that this circle has been broken, the shadows have grown heavy and long, grief reigns a sombre-hued guesj in the once happy hearts, and life's song is hushed and dumb.
