deprived of the services of the church
from sickness for a year and a half,

his home; was always glad when a
friend would come in and engage in a
season of prayer; his pastor's visits
were always marked by his request at
the earliest possible moment for a
season of prayer together; this characterized
his habits to the end. His
life among his fellowmen was characterized
by kindness, this was especially
so toward the poor, both white
and colored, when it was known in the
community that the end was near;
these people, unforgetful of his kindness
and conscious of their loss of a
true friend, gathered about his home
in expression of affection and grief;
when the end came they were among
the sorrowing ones till the last flower
was placed on the new-made mound.
He is survived by a devoted wife, four
sisters and one brother and a host of
friends who mourn their loss.

CHARLES C. WALTON.
The subject of this sketch, Charles
Courtlandt Walton, ws born at the old
family home, "Mornlnpslde," In Cumberland
county. Va., March 2. 1848. He
was the oldest son of Dr. Richard Peyton
Walton, a ruling elder In the Presterlan
Church and throughout the Civil
War a surpeon In the Confederate
army. Mr. Walton died at his home
In Norfolk, Va., December-IB, 1911. He
was married In 1879 to Miss Mary
k N OF THE SOUTH
Kearney Phillips, of Dyersburg, Tenn.,
and of this union the following children,
with their mother, Burvlve:
Charles Courtlandt, Jr., Kearney Phillips,
Amedia Linton (Mrs. Robert
Marion Bell), William Peyton, Florence
Phillips, Caroline Field, Henry Woodson,
and John Morton; also six grandchildren,
his aged mother, two sisters
and two brothers.
Mr. Walton had long been a loyal
member of the Presbyterian Church,
well grounded in its great principles
and devotedly attached to Its history
and traditions. The Scriptures were
to him the Word of God indeed, the
final authority on all questions of faith
and practice. Their mysteries were the
secret things which belong unto the
Ix)rd our God and the clear, sublime
truths of the Word were the heritage
nf mircclvoo onH
Mr. Walton was endowed with refined
social qualities, a warm heart,
a gentle manner, a responsive nature,
strong family attachments, and high
ideals of all the relations of life. He
was fond of wholesome reading, was
well grounded in the best literature,
especially in the writings of the old
standard authors. He loved music and
was gifted with a fine voice which he
used with good efTect in public worship
and in the social circle.
He belonged to the old school of
gentlemen rather than the new and
cherished the memory and traditions of
Southern life of that earlier day when
social, domestic and civil conditions
seemed almost ideal.
In recent months Mr. Walton,
though engaged regularlv in husiness
vocations seemed to those near him to
be rapidly maturing in Christian character
and when the end came suddenly,
it seemed plain to them that he
had been under special gracious Influences
preparatory to an abundant
entrance into the everlasting kingdom
of his Lord.
