Tho bereaved husbuud und mo? thorless children httvo tho sympathy of mauy loving hearts. CLAKA was tho daughter of that worthy citizen of Marlboro, Mr. J. II David. She possessed a frail body, was strong in soul. Her loving dis position and gentle manners wou for her a host of friend?. She was much loved because sho waa so lovable Some one has given us a high ideal of a porfeet woman. Hore is his dosoiip liou : "An uuspittcd character, a cheerful disposition, a gonerous, un tiring heart, and a brave will." Iii. ideal was very nearly if not altoget . or carried out in tho life of Clara Davi i Miller. There was a happy comhin : lion of purity and gentlcncBH which made ter au object of admiration. It was tho privilege of the writer ot these lines to seo this frail, gent?o wo man face death. The "king of terror" had no terror for her. She declared that she was not excited and her voice and manner testified to ber composure, With a mothor's love sho ohing to her children, but with a christian's faith ?he trusted lier Saviour. ' Thanks be to God, which giveth us tho victory through our Lord Jesus Christ." May 28, 1900. R. F. JAMES GORDON BENNETT MCCALL Was boru August, 10th 1854, al Clio, S. C. Ho was tho third sou ol John jj, McCall and Nancy Sinclair McCall. Tho deceased was brought up in the upper portion of Marion county and has a largo cirelo of kins folk and acquaintances in Marion and Marlboro counties and also in tho State of North Carolina. Ho was liv ing at tho time of his death on his plantation near Hamer, in this county He had never married and was en gaged exclusively in the business ol agriculture. His large plantation wu? tho scene of ono of the most thriving agricultural industries in our county ; bowns surrounded by loyal tenants aud croppers, all of whom were devo ted to him and his aiTairs ; and he enjoyed tho afleotionate regard of all his ucighhois and acquaintances in that section of our county. It was n touching sight to seo these tenants and neighbors following tho last remains to their burial placo, tho Sinclair oom eteiy near Gallavon, whero his ances tors ou thc Sinclair side aro buried j Tho funeral services were conducted by Kev. J. G. Richards of the Presby terian church at tho home of his aunt, Mies Mary Sinclair, near said ceme? tory, on Sunday afternoon the 6;h amid a large concourse of sor ?owing friends and relatives. In the ruin that succeeded the war, his parents were not able to giyo him a collegiate education, aud his eduea?J lion and his opportunities iii this re.] gard were, therefore, limited. He, J however, attended the neighborhood school house mid aldo wont for two terms to tho military school couduted at that time by Col. Asbury Coward, at Yorkville, S. C. Ho made good uso of tho opportunities which ho had and developed a largo fund of iotelli gonce, which stood him in good stead in the business afluir? of life. Ile was devoted to his business and by dint ol onergj' and skill was rapidly accumu lating miflieiont property to have af forded him all the comforts of life. lu his intercourse with others, he was always very considerate of their foeU iugs and always sought their happiness in preference to his own. This prin ciple seemed to guido in the lino ol benevolent acts. He was always ready to succor tho needy und give comfort to those who were in distress. His hospitality was unbounded as all can testify who over paid him a visit to his bachelor home. Wo suppose that no man in our county was more loved and respected by his friouds and by those who came within the purview et his hospitality and benevolence. Ho was thoroughly honest in all his deal ings and had the confidence of all bu siness men with whom ho carno in contact His death crented a void which can never ho filled. Doscendod from ono of our oldest and most res pectable Scotch families, ho seemed lo inherit their traits of honesty aud be nevolence. His untimely death is mourned not alone by thc members of his family; his many friends share in their grief. -Contributor in Marion Star 2Std. Mr. McCall had many friends in Marlboro.
