A Prominent Citizen Dead.
. ^.^,-1^ ikouse, a very prom
inent and influential citizeu, who
lived about five miles south of
Dallas, is dead.
Mr. House has been a long and
patient sufferer of a dreaded pul

his malady would prove fatal, lie
has borne his lingering illness
with the fortitude of a Christian
soldier, and passed away peace
fully last. Tuesday morning, with
out a murmur.
In the death of Mr. House, the
county has lost one of her most
substantial and enterprising citi
zens. By his honorable aud 11 p-
right dealings with his fellow man
he won for himself scores of
friends throughout Paulding and
adjoining counties.
He was a citizen of Dallas at one
time, and our people learned to
love him for his many beautiful
traits ot character. He was about
fifty-five years of age, most of
which liy spent in this county, re
moving herefrom Cobh county,
where he was horn and spent, his
boyhood days. He joined the
Methodist church in early life and
lived a devout Christian life, be
ing a consistent member of Mt}
Tabor at. the time of his death.
The funeral .services were con
ducted by Rev. J. S. Raw Id,, of
this city, and the remains were
interred at Mt. Tabor cemetery
at 1 o’clock, Wednesday after
noon.
Besides his bereaved wife, he
leaves several children, among
whom are Mr. Pierce House, Mrs.
Watha Vaughn, and Miss Willa
House.

rows with those of the grief-
stricken family. 1
