Deatb of Miss Carrie Wilson. .
ia
Wednesday, May 27. 1P08, the 3
death angel entered the home i a
of Mr W K Wilson and bore b
away the spirit of his beloved f
sister, Miss Carrie Wilson, aged
54 years, who died after a ling- h
ering illness of many months, a
During all her long sickness l n
she was upheld and strengthen- h
ed by her faith and trust in God g
and even when enduring the j
most intense suffering- she still j \
maintained that b e a u t i f u 1 j h
Christian spirit which was p
:haracteristic of her. a
She was a noble example of t?
Christian fortitude and endur- si
ince. Having been converted j k
it the age of 20 years she join- j k
?d the church and was baptized ol
jy Kev J M Weaver. She re- tc
mained a consistent member of ir.
the Cades Baptist church until c<
ler death. h
She was regarded as a sta}' a
ind support of her church: the tl
poor and suffering knew her as ti
their ministering angel and the si
sick and afflicted blessed her as ir
- -* r j
their nurse ana comiorier. s<
Where were sorrow and
distress, there her kind soul de- d
lighted to be; doing- all these tl
deeds of love and kindness in | a
the name of her Lord and Mas-: S
ter; who has said: "Inasmuch i C
as ye do it unto one of these ye s
have done it unto me." E
Surely Aunt Carrie kept the ii
faith and has now entered upon i v
her great reward. ! r
Among those who mourn her :
death are two brothers, Rev W h
O and Mr W K Wilson, and two J
sisters, Mrs W A J Moore and r
Mrs 1' J McKenzie.
Dear Aunt Carrie, in the jj
hearts of those who knew and j?
loved you best, you will always r
be remembered by the life you
have ii ved and the works you ^

have done. jA

leath of Mr. Thomas? Items of Interest
on Various Subjects
Home, June 8.?In mentioning
the vacation and visit to Glenn
Springs of Mr W .J M Thomas in i
ny last letter it is sad to further
date thcLt he was called to his
inal reward only a few hours
ifter his arrival at the springs, j
Mr Thomas was a man of ster- i
ing worth and in his death our
ntire community will suffer the
oss of everything that it takes
o constitute a true and Chrisian
citizen. He was a K of Pj
.nd was laid to rest atUnir i^
Jethodist church by that order;
nd his funeral was witnessed;
iy a host of relatives and
riends on the 6th inst.
Owing" to having sickness in
is family your scribe was un- p
ble to attend the commence- o
lent at Union school, but have b
eard it spoken of as being a 1 a
rand affair and well attended. C
Several persons drove under:k
lr B B Chandler's buggy shed
ist Saturda)' afternoon to seek 01
rotection from a heavy rain n
nd after the rain, as they at- "
?mpted to retreat from the
lielter, a horse commenced 83
i
icking but soon found his u;
icking part hung in the springs j
f a buggy. Mr Chandler went .
) Ins assistance, and on releas- 11
ig the horse the kicking was
Dntinued. Before he could make ^
is escape Mr Chandler received
. - , , , , . , . Cl
ieariui oiow, oeing sirucK in
le chest. It was thought at ^
rst to be dangerous, and he is
till suffering, but seems to te
nproving and will probably
x>n recover.
A few minutes after this accient
occurred Mr J Eaddy was
irown from a buggy and hurt
lso. It seems that Mr J J
now Had driven up to see Mr
handler and left his horse S
tanding unhitched, and Mrp
laddy unthoughtedly climbed v
ito the buggy to read his paper,
'hen the horse took fright and
an off. 1T

The talk of the inspector impressed

by tlie natives "pororoca." Duringt

as this tide begins to come in a . A
rumbling roar can be heard far
