DEATH.
Mrs. Mary Anna Davis, wife of Mr.
A. I. Barron, and a daughter of the
late James E. Davis, of Manning, died
at her home in Manning at 11.45 last
Friday morning after a brief illness.
She was only 22 years old and leaves
two little children.
The Funeral of Mrs. Kennedy.
At half past ten o'clock Oct. 22d, the
funeral services of Mrs Paul J. Kennedy
(nee Pauline Gaillard) were held at
the residence of her father, Capt. P.
P. Gaillard, on ' Warren street. The
sympathy of this entire community
found expression in the large number
in attendance. It was not alone the
universal esteem in which the family
is held, in Sumter which gathered
that concourse. There was something
peculiarly pathetic in all the circum?
stances which made every heart beat
responsive to a common grief. Her
illness was all so brief. For dajs in
agony of suspense the precious life
flickered alternately, now so brighten?
ing as to kindle in the heart a gleam
of hope, then deepening in despair and
when 4 * "oh the pain, the bliss of dy?
ing" was over it was hard to realize
Pauline was dead. In all her suffering
the self-sacrifice of Him who at the
cross gave his life for others was con?
stantly suggested. " She was so young,
in all only 26 summers, life had ap?
parently wrapped in it so much of joy.
She was the pet of a singularly
affectionate circle and the idol of her
youthful husband. In disposition she
was lovely and attractive. Her rigid
regard for truth and sincerity left an
impress on her character which gave
to her a personality which could only
be admired.
On yonder Piedmont hillside there
was a home which the loving hand of
her devoted partner had arranged with
the teaderest thought, for her to live
in, but alas, when the nest is all fin?
ished the lovely mate is taken. That
Divine Hand which removed her had
also fashioned for her a home in glory
and with a love deeper than aught on
earth bade her enter in.
The impressive services of the Epis?
copal Church she loved so well were
read by the Rector, Rev. H. H. Cov?
ington. She was laid to rest at the
cemetery. Over that newly made grave
a fragrant bloom and leaf from almost
every garden in Sumter shed their in?
cense. G.

A large oak tree, which the street

A GOOD HONEST CIRCUS.
The great John Robinson's Shows
will visit Sumter on Friday, November
8th, giving two performances and a
great and unrivalled street parade.
For more tban seventy years the John
Robinson Shows have held the first
place in the esteem of the circus-going
people of the South and throughout
that long period of time the Show has
maintained a reputation of being up
to-date and strictly high class in all
its departments.
The orignal John Robinson, grand?
father of the present proprietor of the
shows, is said to have been born in
Charleston, and it is a matter of his?
tory that he oragnized his first wagon
show in thal; city in 1824 and from
that small beginning the great Show
of today has grown. Forty cars are
required to transport the show and
three advertising cars go ahead to let
the people know that it is coming.
Scores of world famous riders, both
male and female, the highest salaried
aerialists, gymnasts and acrobats, the
funniest clowns, the largest and finest
collection of wild beasts, the finest
herd of performing elephants and hun?
dreds of other features help to make
the Show what it is.
Ail the scer:ery, costumes and effects
of this grand and imposing spectacle
are new this season. John Robinson
not only offers to his patrons the best
series of circus performances, the
finest and most elaborately equipped
hippodrome, lae largest and most com?
prehensive menagerie, but has added
this year to his already superlative
series of exhibitions the grand Bibli?
cal spectacle of Solomon, his temple,
and the Queen of Sheba, and the
finest, scenic, processional, terpsicho?
rean and lyric spectacle that has ever
invited public patronage.
