The funeral services were held at the liaptist | cliureh on Thursday at 1:1 in. The | pastor, l?ev. T. J. Kooke, preached "|u strong and tender sermon to a I very large assemblage of the relatives and friend? who had come together to play the last tribute. . The body was in charge of the Lake p! City lodge Knights of J'vi bias, this I lodge acting for the Florence lodge, of which the deceased was a member. Over the grave in the church. yard the Pythian ceremony was I j held, conducted by Chaplain L. L. Caldwell, and the body was laid j in its narrow house. Thus passed | away one of our best, most useful, i; most promising, and most highly '' respected citizens. This is not I; written in a spirit of fulsome praise, j but with the sincere conviction " I that not one word is said that is not ' j justified by the life and character ot 1 the man. He was one of us; he had ' made his home with us; we knew I him. He was a good man,?a thorough christian.His honor wasof 1 l the kind that could not heimpeach' J ed.
