ZN MEMORIAM. Capt. Jantes T. Covington. . Capt. Covington was the oldest BOO of the late Trstram Covington, and fi rat saw the light of day at the old Homestead not far distant from which now stands the most imposing country residence in eastern Carolina, now owned and ocoupied by bis brother, tho enterprising and irrepressible H. Kemper Covington. In the fall ot 1865 bo married Miss Lydia John Medlin, daughter nf the late Capt Joaepb Medlin, of Clio seo? lion. After suffering some time, in de clining health, whioh he bore with christian fortitude and sublime resig nation, he died on the 15th day of February 1905, at his home distant only six miles from the old homestead A home that was to him, not a glitter ing day dream, but the bright, blessed adorable reality that Bits highest on ?lie sunny horizon that girdeth life ; where for a period of 39 years be en joyed that greatest spur to effort in the Oat le of life, the confiding love ot a true hearted woman. A home-from my heart I pity him whose sou! does not leap at tho utterance of that name. It is not the bouse, though that may have it8charm8, nor the fields, nor the trees, nor yet the fireside with its sweet blaze play, nor those cherished com panions, your books, but it is the pres ence. The altar of your cooli.lenee is there, the end of your mundane faith is there, and crowning it all, is the ec stacy of the conviction that there you are beloved ; that there you are under stood ; that there your errors will meei with gentlest forgiveness ; that there your troubles will be smiled away; that there yon may confide your trials fear less of unsympathizing ears and that there you may bo joyfully yoursell. In the sunlight of such a home, the Cap tain's last moments were solaced by toe tender assiduities of bis cougenial help mate, of his devoted son aud of old and long familiar friends. He leaves his widow and one son surviving him. How comforting tho thought, i hat to the Captain tho edge of the grave WOB but a foot scraper, at the wicket of elysium. It was only those who knew Captain Covington intimately that had a true appreciation of his real worth. The first time the writer met him, most favorable impression was formed of him. and on further acquaintance this good opiniou developed into senti ments of unalloyed admiration. I can never forget his unaffected manner, his candid greeting, bis cheerful dis position, hiB generous hospitality, his transparency of feelings, his urbane demeanor and pronounced freedom from dissimulation and hypocrisy. Addison, in the Spectator, says : There are many more shining qualities in thc mind of man. but none so useful as discretion. Without it learning is pedantry, and wit impertinence, vir tue itself looks like weakness ; the best parts only qualify a mau to be more sprightly in errors and action to his own prejudice. The captain's life throughout, exhibited evidences of. the presence of this indispensable] substratum and hence be had no ap nrphpnRinn of <>"!. from the -" ii man HIT.Ut live wich ht* en voy in ? -. li a measure, fts mi?ht j ca ve inna j '?> become lita friend, and iv?ih ' lii.3 frieud iii ?ne? a manu; r, thal il lie j his power to hurt bim. Ha was an, nf-1 fable gentlpman with nov\>afc^ aitrac ' Tiv'S'flUsKies^Nlriaitfir^rVe bim hosts u 0 friendB and caused him to be loved tr his family with a devotion approxima ting idolatry. His heart was a foun tain of perennial goodness, ruuninj over with genuine benevolence. H had that all absorbing humanity which sympathizes with the whol family of man ; the humanity thu characterized by a Latin poet-Hom? sum, nibil a me alienum puto. Th? - indispensable basis of all high charac ter-unspotted integrity, unimpeacli ed honor and integrity was his to ai e eminent degree. He lived long enougl 1 lie did enough, and did it it so well, s . successfully, so honorably as to con f neel himself for all time with the re y cords of his country. AH a citizen bc was patriotic ant f self sacrificing. He loved South Car ulina per se and propter se, he lovet ? her for herself and for himself, and when in the darkest hours of her his " tory she called on her sous to buckli on their armor and come to her rescui ho went, not "like the quarry slave a 3 night scourged to his dungeou," bu with alacrity and sustained by unfal ' tering trust and patriotism. His poj: ularity and sterling trails of charade " caused him to be chosen as the captait of a fine company raised in Hebron a position be filled with proud accept unco until that loved banner, the she kinah of our political faith, was harlot , forever in defeat, but not ic dishonor a As a ?oldier, be wus prompt, fearles and obedient-there was nothing weal ' or vaccilating about thc niau. It i ' worthy of remark, that, of such mate 1 rial on both sides of tho conflict, an k the men at the front today couspicu r ously composed, in tho ministry, tin judiciary and the legislative halls o i ibo country, of which last body tb? - subject of this sketch was a promioen i member, looking with an uuslumber ing eye niter tho interest of his con stituents. j Captain Covington was a membei . of one of tho oldest and most promi neut families in Marlboro county-i ' family that has ever been couspicuou: for administrativo and executive abil - ity. Their ranks embrace somo o j most eloquent divinee, largest capital i?ts, scientific planters and intelligeu $ merchants. j His life in ita different phase? was i symposium ol' beautiful accomplishment In bidding udicu to my friend and broth 1 er Confederate veteran, I do so with tin . blessed assuranco that he has gone ) Out ot tho ehadowB cf sadness lulo thu sunsbino of glndno s Into tho light of tho blest, Out of a land very dreary Out of tho world rory woo:/ Into tho rapturo of roHt. Out of today'll n:n and sorrow Into a blissful tomorrow Into a doy without gloom, Out of a land lilied with nighing Land of tho doad and dying Into a land land without tomb, lt. C. MclNTYIUt, Beauty Spot Plantation, Fob. 28, 1905. DEATHS' DOINGS. Thatr "Death loves a Haming mark" has been sadly proven in the recent louses iu ocvcrul hornes in our town. The last circle broken was on Saturday March 4th 1905, when tho angel reaper entered tho happy home of Mr. John F. Ever ett, and took therefrom the gentle spirit of his daughter Miss RACHEL, who had beeu\*tricken only a week previous. It w?\s a sad death-the loss of a young H?C just budding into womanhoo , with all the glow ing possibilif ? jf a\useful life a member of thc church\and a work er in the Sunday school. Is it a broken shaft, a work u\p. uished a life short of success? Na^v, God makes no mistakes. Her wor\k was done, she has fulfilled her rnivssion and the crown already pressed u\?on lier brow is ad bright as though t\ba great work she wanted to do waK doue. The last dread conflict's o'er, And BOO is rusting eafoly Whero pain nfIlicta no more. Wo would not call her back, 'Twere cruel thus to wish That nbc should leave the land of roab For Bach a world aa this ! Tho funeral services were con ducted at Oak Ridge cemetery Sun day morning by her pastor Rev T E. Morris and thc remains laid to j rest beneath a mound of Howers. MARLBORO KNIGHTS AT MARION.
