Last tfaturJay when stockholders
ifr -llie Citizens Buildin<>; and Loan
Association and others who had baai-
ness with Mayor Xathau Littlejohn
went to his ptftce of bajsiuens the fol
lowing notiae upon the door greeted'
them: ‘‘Nathan Littlejohn will not
be in town today on acoouut of the
illness of his father.”
No Nathan waM no * in town. He
was n! Thiekety, the home of Ms
aged and respected father, doing what
he could in his feeble way to make
the last hours of his venerable pa
rent as pleasant as possible. Fur'
some time Mr. Samuel Littlejohn has
been quite sick and very often during
his illness has his son been absent
from the city watching and admin
istering to his father. The com
munity was not shocked when it
learned of Mr. Littlejohn’s death. It
was prepared for ifr and had been.ex
pecting it for some days. On Mom-.
day night Ma soul took Its flight to
that bourn from which no traveller
ere returns. The end was calm and
peaceful as if one falling into sleep.
Gathered around the couch of the
‘dying man were his household.
Mr. Littlejohn was in his nieety*
first year, being ninety years old Jaw
May. Ho was born within two miles
of the place where he died. He had
lived in the community all his lif*.
A quiet unassuming business farmer
he was. He never aspired to any
thing else. Indeed he thought, and
truly so, that his calling was the
noblest of all oacupstions. Ones he
was elected fro the legislature. Hie
record there was not what might be
termed of the meteoric kind. It was
plain, simple, honest. What better
record could mortal man make. He
was always liked and respected by
those who liked and respected men
of character.
Mr. Littlejohn was married twice.
To him ten cbildrea were ho»a
among whom is the present mayor
of Gaffney. By industry and perso-
reranee he accumulated considerable
property and was regarded as a man
of means.
The funeral took place Tuesday af
ternoon at the old homestead.
Many there were who paid tribute to
the departed. The remains were in
terred in the old family burying
ground and all returned to thulr
hemes with sorraw, yefc with a new
lessen learned from an ol**, old slAag
of frhe life of a good citizen.
