The gruml
Mrs. John W. Ross, one of the old
est and most highly respected
wonn-n in Cherokee county, died at
her home on Cherokee creek, about
three miles north of CutTnoy, on Sat
urday the 17th inst., at 'J o’clock in
the evening, in her seventy-ninth
year.
Mrs. Ross was born and raised on
the York side of Broad river, and was
the daughter (>! the lata Jacob B.
Moore, who was widely and well
known in this section in bis day and
is now well remembered by our older
citizens.
She was married in her young wo
manhood to the lato Cupt. John \V.
Ross, so well and favorably known to
us all ami who preoeeded her to the
grave less than two years ago. She
was the mother of eleven children,
all of whom lived to he grown except
one, who died in early childhood.
Her oldest son, Win. Ross, was killed
in the front ranks of the Confederate
army while nobly doing bis duty in
the seven days’ tight around Rieh-
Soci- j moml in lS(i*2 Her life was devoted
to her God, her domestic duties and
the tender care of her devoted child
ren, who she always treated, even in
her last years and their grown up
days, as children needing her con-
slant cure and attention ; ami lu r
fond children all humored her in the
whims of old age and treated her
witli the tenderness of childhood
which *!k* had so faithfully adminis
tered to them in their infancy.
The surviving children of Mrs.
| Ross are Cupt. J. It. Russ. Kx-shorilT
! of Cherokee county, John \\ . Ross,
! .)r , M. L Ross, of Shelby, X. C., L.
i R. Ross, \V. 11. Ross, Mrs. Carrie
| Holcomb, .Mrs. Janie Uullney and
! Mrs. Mary Hamlin, ail of whom are
I wort by t hiidreii of honored parents
ami citizens of whom any county
would he justly proud.
Mrs. Ross was long a consistent
member of the Baptist church and in
ail the viccssittides of life was com
forted by her laith, which was also
her consolation when the end came.
R v. B. P. R ibertson conducted
the funeral services in the Providence
church Sunday, after which the body
was interred by the side of her hus
band in the presence of her many
sorrowing relatives and friends.

••ALL'S WELL THAT ENDS WELL.
The Southern Well Fixture,
lY-iMi.y The Safety Weil Future Co., ol Blacksburg, S. C-
A Sn.it hern lux ent Ion mid manufact ure. Over 10,0 0 lu use mii.v t bey woe placed on the
market, and are giving entire satisfaction. Asa water elevator it has Ihe follow Ing mer
its: 11 is labor saving, and is the simplest si met ure for raising water on t he market. It is
easily adjusted to any well or cistern. Any person can put up one in Thirty 'll mites, us It
has no attachment to any part of the w ell helow the plat form.
It is the most durable Fixture for the purpose in use. it is snb.stan:ially constructed,
and t he buckets never come in contact wPli each oilier it the si.|. s if the well, and the
groove provided in tbe wheel is so arranged us to produce hut Utile friction on the rope
and none on the pulley.
It Works Easy. The buckets balance c ich other, so the only rcsistuue 1 t > overcome is
the weight of Ihe water in one bucket; hence it is ihe only structure that will raise water
11 om I he deep wells w it houl a corresponding increase of I r let ion, and t hui requires no more
power to op. rate in a well of not huu in one of .'.’ll feet deep.
It is Always Kcudy for l «te and Always ut its Ktst. After many yearsof service the.
same number of turns of the crunk brings I he same amount of water as when new .
It Has None of the Objections Common to Pumps. It will never freeze, lias no wooden
tubing to wear out, decay and pollute the water, no iron tubing to rust, never lias to be
primed, packed or thawed out. and you do not hive to pumpout a pill of water to gel a
iresh, cold drink.
It Is Entirely Fra from Danger. Being piovidcd with a self-acting break, governed
hy an cccent rlc, it Is impossible, should 1 he hand accidentally slip from I lie crank, fi r the
bucket to run down. Hence any child can handle il with perfect safety. The Km ire Strue-
t ure Consists of Well Curb. Wheel with Crank, two Buckets and one :-p mt for each Bucket.
Tin se spouls are attached to inside of eiirh or frame, and are operated hy rod pressnro
from t lie outside, hr I ngiiig them up under and raising tin* \ ai \ e in i he h >t t.i.u of i he bucket
and c< uveylng the w ater to a proper receptacle. Hence II will be seen tliat the unpleasant
liaiidling of ropes and buckets will be done away with, and the uncleaiiliuess attending
such operation avoided.
