Mr. Editor:?Will you kindly allow tne space in your paper, a paper \ji muriK, turn iew wen meanr. utterances. Since I camo to your beautiful little city, to ut least take up my temporary abode, I have been very pleasantly impressed with tho expression of sympathy for each other in times of sorrow and bereavement. Your funerals are, in a genernl way, largely attended. Many come to weep with those who weep, and sorrow with those who sorrow, and nil too, at least, lay a modest flower on the grave of their departed fellow citizen. This is only as it should be, but it is beautiful to behold. To a crushed and heart broken companion what a sparkling treasure in memory's casket, a sweet, precious reminiscence that the good people of my community, irrespective of creed or social relations come out with willing hands, Willi lflffintf lllinrta lo'l? mAiolnnaJ eyes, tenderly laid away my precious dead in their last resting place. It is then all wo can do, Uut what a sourco of comfort. Union has just lost two of her most honored and active physicians, Drs. M. T. Smith and Y. L. Poole. The practice of each was large. They belonged to our town and their death casts a gloom over 8ur city. The people love their faithful, loyal physician, often far more deeply than the cold, stilT, formal preacher. No wonder the people have almost vied with each other in their words and tokens of sympathy to these bereaved companions and orphaned children. Many a heart-felt petition will go up for comforting, sustaining grace to be given to these sorrowing homes. I sincerely trust that it will not bo out of place or good taste for mo tc give expression to a personal allusion. Divine Providence seemed to have cast my lot among the good people o! Union county. I now have all the ministerial work within the count} that I can do?some might say more than a man of my age ought to at tempt, coupled with a growing inter est in the welfare of your county. 1 feel also an increasing allection foi your people. My sincere desiro is tc merit good will and influence by ar humble, modest life', ono above re proach. I sincerely desire to address mysolf to the legitimate discharge ol tne nunes 01 my sacrect profession, with lovo to all ancl malice toward none, J. D, Mahox. Jouesvillc Jottings.
