In memory’ of our beloved brother, B. A. Carter, who departed this life July 2, 1908 at the Fiagier Hospital in St. Augustine, Fla., He was ill two weeks of typhoid fever. We were summoned to his bedside but were not allowed to see him till he had breathed his la?t. It was so sad to see him cold in death, and not one member of his family to say good-bye. “ All that medical science coujd do for him was done but to no avail. The Lord knew best and saw fit to remove him from our midst. He loved him bett'.-r than we did and took him up higher. His home is made desolate. A place is now vacant that can never be filled. Barn was a dutiful son, lov ing brother, kind husband and an aflectionate father, atten tive to all cares and interests of his home and and family. Many people have enjoyed the bounty of his hospitality. None knew him but to love him. None named him but to praise He moved his family to Florida fourteen years ago, but he never forgot his old home. His love for his pa rents was so great he was ever ready to render any pos sible kindness to them or to anyone that needed his assist ance. The home circle is now darkened by death, but God in his wisdom knew best and saw fit to remove him and we must bow to the chastening rod. It will be a blessed recollection that he grew up to love and be loved by those who will ever cherish his. sweet and pure memory. He leaves fether, mother, wife, four children, five sis ters, and four brothers, and a host of friends to mourn their loss. Farewell, dear Barn, we will hear your voice on this earth no more, nor feel the w'arm pressure of your hand. By God’s grace we can meet you on the other shore, where parting is no more, and no farewell tear ever shed. His Sister. Men’s Suits Boy’s Suits $4 to $18. , - $1.50to$6 Children &nd Ladies Cloaks.
