MR. T. E. SALTERS DEAD.
End Came Suddenly Monday at
His Home at Salters Denot.
"Judge" Thomas Edward Salters,
so entitled from the office of magistrate
whose duties he had notably
discharged, has passed into the
great beyond. His taking away
was unexpected and sudden, yet
the manner of his death was as gentie
and quiet as the falling asleep of
an infant. Monday evening, October
24, in his usual health apparently,
he retired at bed-time; Mrs
Salters had been reading at the
fireside. Although there was a fire
-.n the hearth, he said something
about being chilly?thought of only
afterwards as indicative of what
unconciously to others and to himself
was then taking place. He turned
over, saying he would"go to sleep."
A little later his wife heard from
aim some unusual sound, as if trying
to speak. She called and then
iaid her hand on his shoulder to
arouse him from what might be a
troubled dream. Unable to arouse
him she called "Tom" from his
room, but the Judge was not to be
aroused. Neighbors were hastily
summoned?Messrs Chandler, Cook,
Thomson, McClary, Odom and Hutton
were soon there?but found that
he was indeed passed beyond recall.
The funeral took place at 2 p m
Wednesday. He was buried beside
the church he loved and served.
Judge Salters was a man of ster;ing
character, having "a local habitation,and
a name." Through life
he occupied the ancestral home. He
tvas a member of the Union (Presbyterian)
church, for many years a
ieacon, of late years a ruling elder.
He often attended the church courts
is representative of the congrega 1AM

t'rom no duty because it was due before
the public. "The heart of his
A'ife did safely trust in him." His
fellow man knew "his word to be as
food as his bond." He had poss?s;ion
of himself and was not easily
swept off his feet. Therefore, in
iny kind of conflict with men, and
under provocation, he was not excessive
in what he said or did, but
reasonable, moderate, forbearing
ind conciliatory. At the same time,
le was not of a timid spirit. His
.vas a strong soul, and stood immovable
for right, truth and goodless,
as he conceived them to be.
He was proud to own himself the
object of good-will and confidence
)n the part of the colored people.
His nei ghbor dwelt securely by him

courtesy.
He leaves his wife and three children,
viz: Messrs John M and
rhomas E and Miss Lillian V Salters,
the 1 atter being a student at
Winthrop College. He was about
54 years old and had always lived
at the old home. ,
All have suffered privation in his
passing and feel a sympathy with
tiis family in their irreparable loss.

SEEKING HER HUSBAND.
Were Married Three Weeks Ago
and Bridegroom Disappeared.
Says the Manning Times:
There arrived at the home of Mr
B W Moore at Moore's cross roads in
Williamsburg county last Wednesday
a lady from Charleston who claims to
be the wife of Cleve Moore, a son of
B W Moore. The lady says they were
married in Charleston three weeks
ago and her husband has disappeared.
He was a student at the medical
college in Charleston and when within
a few months of graduation left
and entered the navy. He sailed all
over the world and, tiring of the
navy,appealed to his familv.andthev
s.'cured his release from the service.
He went to Charleston and married
the young lauy.whu is said to belong
to a good fsmilv, and then he mysteriously
disappeared. Search has
been made by her for him but to no
avail,30 she went to the home of her
husband's parents, where she is now
horing for the return of him, who is
thought to be in Atlanta pursuing
his medical studies,and when he gets
through will come home to join his
wife. The parents knew nothing of
their son's marriage until the young
lacy came to their home. They gave
her an affectionate welcome and they
are proud of their daughter-in-law.
