Too many guilty themselves. 14. Why some pastors ure no more used of God? He will not use unclean vessel. 15. Why have many no respect for saving power of the blood?

On last Thursday evening our community was very much shock- } ed to hear of Mitchell Hudson’s death. He had not been well for sometime and his death was not unexpected, yet when the end came the shock was almost un endurable. Mitchell was twenty- three years old and had been a consistent member of the Baptist Church for a number of years. Ever ready to do his duty and lend a helping hand to those in distress, he had won for himself many friends who regret to give ’ him up. He leaves a father, moth- I er, brothers and sisters whose heads are bowed down in grief today; but their irreparable loss is his eternal gain. The funeral services were conducted at Long Cane Baptist Church by Dr. A. B. Vaughn last Friday afternoon and hish-iHv was laid to rest in the “city.of the dead” at Long Cane. TOBACCO.

DAHL’S CUT FLOWERS DON’T FORGET GRAPE JUICE we cannot add to his happiness nor to his virtues while living, yet we desire to submit the fol lowing facts, for the benefit of all those who are left behind, that by bis life and departure, there might be made some lasting impressions for good upon the liviug, knowing that he died as he lived trusting in God. Broth er Wright was twice married, The Lord blessed lnm with six sons and two daughters by his first wife, and two 6ons by his second marriage. All survive him but one sou. He joined the Baptist church at County Line, Troup county in 1870, in which he made a useful and consistent member and dea con, loyal to liis church, true to his friends; a citizen whocheer- fully bore his part in civil affairs, sacrificing his personal interest for public good. HiB death was not a surprise to us for he had been a patient suff erer for quite a while, which he bore without murmur or com plaint, submitting himselt to the will of God who doeth all things well. By his gentle, uncomplain ing disposition, he won many friends who regretted to give him up yet feeling that our loss is his eternal gain. Brother Wright was laid to rest at the family burying ground near his home, his pastor, Rev. T. T. Davis, conducting the ser vices. He was buried with ma sonic honors, in which fraternity lie was a member, being master of Troup Factory lodge lor a num ber of years. His sons acted as pall bearers at h>s burial. Brother Wright enlisted in the 32nd Georgia regiment in 1862 and remuined in the army until the surrender. He made a true and brave soldier; he was wound ed once at Fort Sumter, showing loyalty to his country; always found on the side of right. His days being spent in usefulness here, when the summons came he was found waiting like Paul, hav ing finished his work which God had given him to do. Thus he fell asleep to awake in the like ness of our blessed Christ. Therefore, be it resolved : That in the death of brother Wright the church has lost one of its strong stays and faithful mem bers; the community, a worthy and appreciated neighbor; the cause of the Master, a faithful doer and Christian; his children, a dear and valuable friend and counselor; his wife a kind and de voted husband. Resolved 2nd—That we the members of this church enter into a covenant together that we, by the help of Almighty God, be obedient to the request so often Mr. E. J. O’Neal, of Chipley, attended services at Lebanon church last Sunday. Miss Mary Tomme, who has been spending some time at Mrs. Myrtle Smith, of O’Neals Mill, has returned home.
