Mr. Editor:?Will you kindly allow
tne space in your paper, a paper

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.
