By this union thoro wero Ovo children, four sons and ono daughter, all of whom arc living, except ono son Mr Daniel Bar rentino of Chesterfield, S- C. Mr. John Barrcntino of Hobron. and Mr. James Barrcntino of Wilmington. N. C., aro good citizens and successful business men and show that they wero early in life trained in habits of.sobriely, industry and economy. About a^ year before Mr. Barrcntino's death, while on a visit to this community, he with his son ono day visited thc He bron cemetery. Noticing tho neat man ncr in whioh it was kept, he remarked that this was the only place he had ever seen whero ho wanted to bc buried, tie thon mado a request that when he died his body should be brought herc for in terment. This request was sacredly re garded. _ Mr. Barrcntino was a member of ihc M. Ii. Church, South.

By this union there wero If. children, six sons and six daughters, nine of whom arc still liv iog, f> som and four daughters. The loss of hi* wife was a great bereavement to Mr. Hubbard, as all who knew him intimately caD testify. He often spoke of his lonely condition, and, at lime his loss seemed greitcr than bc could bear. Ho was a devoted husband and au affectionate father. Ile possessed a bright mind, and had he turned his Attention towards literature he would in all probability have nude a success in that line. His occasional con tributions to tho county papers on differ ent subjects, showed what he might have dono if he had turned bis talent in that direction. Ho joined ibo Methodist church while a young man, and remained in its communion until thc close of hi. life. He contracted typhoid fever at thc close of summer or in tho early autumu, and not being of a very strong constitu tion, was with all that loving hands and medical skill could do, unable lo resist such a dreadful disoaso, He is missed in Hebron church and community where he has lived tho grouter part ol' his life.
