G. lie was deputy sheriff of that county twelve years and then sheriff for four years. lie was a member of the Gordon Light Infantry, a member of the band, a prominent Mason while in Winnsboro. lie was in the hotel business in Hlackstock for two years. He then came to Lancaster about live years ago | and has been one of our well j known citizens ever since. lie was married November 12, 1888' to Miss Maggie Muckorell, daughter of Mr. ?!. C. Mackorell, of Blaokstock. lie leaves a wife and four children, three girls and one boy. In his official life he was remarkable for the kindness and courtesy with which he treated all classes of people, both white and black, and was said to be one of the best officers in the State. For some time he had been in very poor health. No remedy used was of much value to him. He died on last Sunday morning, May 7, 1890, about eleven o'clock. The funeral services were held yesterday in the Presbyterian church and conducted by Rev. Chalmers Fraser. He was then buried in the new cemetery by the Masons in accordance with their rites and ceremonies. He was a pood husband, father, i neighbor, friend ; and was so ! grateful and thankful for any kindness done him that by his , own humbleness he could humble others and remind one of the saying of the Great Augustine: "I humble myself to the humble." "He that humbleth himself shall be exalted" is the teaching of the , Master. May we not fondly hope that ere this he has been exalted by the Master in that city where there is no sorrow, nor pain, nor death, but where all is light, and joy, and happiness t He loved to read the Hook "'hich tells of the many mansions 1 and now faith is turned into right , and hope is swallowed in glad iruuion. we snail not soon forget him.
