and at his death he was one of the .510008, V ICG KiGS cli
mort substantial men in his neigh- 1 ^ j . /(S.
borhood. Success in life, however,
did not affect Mr. Clary. He lias
always remained a <|uiet and unas
suming citizen and died in the es
teem and respect of all who knew
him.
The funeral services were con- j
ducted by Rev. 13. P. Robertson, of |
this city. Senator Jefferies paid a |
loving tribute to Ills dead friend, j
The concourse that accompained the
remains to the burial ground was
perhaps the largest that has attended
a funeral in the country in some
years. Among those who attended
from this city were Mayor A. N.
Wood, Representative W. G. Austell,
R. M. Wilkins andJ. G. Spencer.
Speaking of t he deceased to a Leduuk
n presentative on Monday Mayor
Wood said:
*‘I have dealt with Mr. Clary in
cessantly for twenty years, and have
always found him to be a perfect
gentleman. He was high-toned in
every respect. He was always lib
eral In his dealings. He was an in
dividual man, thinking and acting
as his best judgment dictated.
His life was a model one. A large
part of his success, however, was
due to his estimable wife, who shared
in his labors, his sorrows and his
joys.”
The sympathy of the entire com- i
muuity goes out to these stricken
families in their sad bereavement.
May they learn to say s ith all their
hearts. “Thy will be done.”

Barn Burned by Lightening.
W. ,s. Lipscomb, who lives about
twelve miles South of the city, in
Um Gouchtr neighborhood, hud the
misfortune to ioose his barn by lire
caused from lightning last Sunday
! evening. He also lost one mule and
| a lot of feed stuff. He succeeded,
j however, in saving seven head of
j mules and one horse. This is a se-
[ vere loss to Mr. Lipscomb as the
building Is quite pew, having been
I erected but about two years ago and
was regarded as one of the best barns
in that section. Sam's many
friends in Gaffney and all over Chero
kee county will sympathize with
him in his loss.
