The Ladies’ Aid Society of the
Presbyterian church has, in the
death of Miss Lizzie Prince, sus
tained a loss which it feels most
deeply, and we can truly sav that
a Christian worker has left us
one who for a number of years
has ever been willing to aid with
her presence when not providen
tially hindered, and with cheer
ful contributions of her means at
every call.
We cherish the memory of an
example worthy of imitat ion net.
before ns during tin- many years
,111 which she made one onr of
number. In recognition of the fact
that, it was from our Heavenly
Father that the call came to our
beloved sister to enter forever the
mansions prepared by our Elder
Brother, we would resolve:
First: That wo bow in humble
trust and submission to the will
of Him who doeth all tilings well.
Second; That we convey to her
family this expression of our sym
pathy and sense of our mutual
loss, commending them to the
care of Him who alone can effec
tually comfort sorrowing hearts.
Third: That n page in the re
cords ol our society be inscribed

Death of Mrs. Homes.
(Special to The Reporter )
Many of the citizens of Troup
have been saddened by the news
of the death of Mrs. Louisa Love
lace IJutnes, wife of Henry S.
In Memoriam.
A sad death in this part of town
was that of Mr. John Hart Fri
day of last week at the home of
his son, Mr. Daniel Hart. Mr.
Hart was a good old gentleman
anti his years were something over
threescore years and ten. It is
with reason that if we liveovtr
that we have trouble ami sorrow.
He was a member of the Primi
tive Baptist church.
The writer held a conversation
with this old soul a few days be
fore bo passed nwny. He said bis
time was short; that he did not
dread death; that he would soon
be nt rest where all tears would be
wiped away, and that the change
from this world to a brighter one
was a pleasure to think of.
Remember, denr ones, he has
fought n good fight, finished Ins
course nnd received that bright
and never fading crown laid up
for him before the foundation of
the world. So let not our hearts
be troubled in our Father’s house
are many mansions, if it were not
so He would have told us. Just
think! He went to prepare a place
for us and sui^l he would come
again to receive us. This should
be a glorious thought, we shall
see our loved ones gone on before
and know each other better. I
believe I will reach that, golden
shore some sweet day nml know
tlie faces of my precious loved
ones. My precious and sweet
mother passed away only a year
ago, and I sometimes feel her
t spirit hovering over mo nnd
whispering to her sail-hearted dar
lings lu-re to prepare to meet her
up yonder in that bright city
with streets of gold. And by the
he’p of my blessed Savior I will
meet Iter when my name is cnl'ed.
Dear ones, do not weep and grieve
for your loved ones who are sleep
ing their long and sweet lasting
sleep. Mv words to you art* to he
if good cheer nud Jive faithful
llamas. Her death occurred litstii fDo eml, anil then receive a
bright and shining crown that
J inlet 1) not away.
Why should we wrop when our
loved ones rest in the bosom of
Friday •veiling, I’Vh, 2 1, ’05, nt
s o’clock at their pleasant home
near West Point. She and her
venerable husband now in his
02nd year, had both been quite ill
tor some days prior to her depart
ure. "Uncle Henry” was slowly
improving nt the time but tile
loss of Ins heioveii companion
who for more than IT years had
shared with a true wife’s interest
all his joys and sorrows, came as
a great shock to him.
Mrs. Utftmes \\ftssod her Slst
birthday oil the 1st It of last Sep
tember and, ns her father moved
into Troup county and settled at
the Love’.nco home near West
Point when she was only 0 years
of age, practically all of her life
was spent in this county. Early
in life uniting with the Metho
dist church she steadfastly re
mained a consistent and exem
plary member to the day of what
we call “death”—toiler, only a
transfering of her membership to
the Church Triumphant.
She was n worthy member of nn
honored family, the last of a fam
ily of 10 children who grew to
manhood and womanhood,loving,
serving and blessing home and
native land. We can blit think
that with her coming into the
spirit land there was joy abound
ing as the reunited family joined
in songs of praise and triumph.
Hers was one of those modest, re-
lined, sweet-spirited natures that
readily attracts, wins enduring
esteem nnd love, makes home hap
py and blesses the community.
In addition to her husband,
she leaves an only daughter, Mrs.
Rosa Stott, whom she loved most
tenderly and who mourns her loss
with unspeakable grief: and also
several step-children: Mrs. Addie
Christmas, Mrs. Mary Kirkpat
rick, Mr. H. C. Hames and Mr.
W. N. Hames.
Her remains were laid to rest
Sunday morning at, ten o’clock at
the Lovelace cemetery, funeral
services being conducted by her
pastor, Rev. S. Wiggins, and
listened to with sorrow and sym
pathy by a large number of
friends and neighbors who will
ever fondly cherish the memory
of the deceased.
Attacked By n Mob
and beaten, iu a labor riot, until
covered with sores, a Chicago
street car conductor applied Buek-
len’s Arnica Salve, nud was soon

Deafness Cannot Ho Cured

Ctlre Deafness, nml tliatis by con

caused by nn inflamed condi

Eustachian Tube. When this tube
gets inflamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed Deaf
ness is the result,and unless the in
flammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroy

are caused by catarrh, which is
nothing but an inflamed condi
