tUDDEN DEATH OF
JOEL E 8RUNS0N.
ORMER CITIZEN OF WILLIAMS*
BURG COUNTY DIES SUDDENLY
NEAR SUMTER.
Sumter, February 8:?The people
f Sumter were shocked and saddend
this morning to hear of the findij2T
of the dead body of Mr Joel E
trunson alongside the railroad track,
ear New Sumter, a station on the
Ltlantic Coast Line railroad, about
ve miles from Sumter, where he
ad dropped when returning from
is farm to that place to take the
rain home.
Mr Brunson was a well-known and
ighly esteemed citizen of this city
nd was well-known throughout the
tate because of his fight against
he liquor traffic. He ran for Govrnor
of the State- twice, the second
ime in 1906 on the prohibition tick-*
t. He was also publishei and edior
of the Broad Axe, the official oran
of the Prohibition party in South
larolina, for a number of years, in
ffiich he continued his fight for
rohibition.
Mr Brunson left home with his
rife this morning on an early train,
le got off at New Sumter to go to
is farm, several miles farther on,
riiile his wife went on to Mayesville
o spend the day with her daughter.
Vben returning from his farm,where
Dme work was going on, he dropped
ead by the railroad track, a quarer
of a mile from New Sumter. It
ras stated by a member of the famy
today that members of the fami7
had tried to dissuade him from
his trip, but he said he was comelled
to go, as he had not been out
o see about the work in several days.
Hs hndv was found hv an old npcro_
!en Franklin, who summoned some
rhite neighbors. The Atlantic Coast
,ine train to Sumter came along
hortly after this and was flagged
nd the body put on it to be brought
ere.
There were only two witnesses at
tie inquest, Dr Mood, who examined
le body and pronounced death to
e due to natural causes, probably
rom apoplexy, and Ben Franklin,
rho had discovered the body. The
jry returned a verdict in accordance
rith the testimony of Dr Mood.
The deceased started out in life aa
printer in the old "Watchfnan and
outhron" printing office. This was
uring the war, in which he was too
oung to serve actively in the field,
lthough he was a member of the
eserves and ready to serve at home
t any time. Later he entered into
lie lumber business, in which he wa^
iterested up to the time of his death;
le was also interested for the past
ew years in farming, although he
old his farm between here and
layesville some time ago.
me iunerai services win De neia
ere tomorrow afternoon, and will
e conducted by Dr C C Brown, of
he First Baptist church, of which
he deceased was for many years an
arnest member.

Old Age.
Old age as it comes in the orderly
>rocess of nature is a beautiful and
najestic thing. It stands for expeience,
knowledge, wisdom, counsel,
rhat is old age as it should be, but
ild age as it often is,means poor di
jestion, torpid bowels, a sluggish liv;r
and a general feeling of ill health,
lespondency and misery. This in
ilmost every instance is wholly unlecessary.
One of Chamberlain's
rablets taken immediately after supjer
will improve the digestion, tone

vay to one of hope good cheer. For
