Lucius E. Beall, for many years con tinuously tax receiver of Floyd county, died at his house near Pinson’s Store last Sunday after a lingering illness of several months.

He was a gallant soldier of the 8th Georgia Regiment in the late war, doing a Boldier’s full duty until disabled by a severe wound which so shattered his thigh bone that he never fully recov-1 ered from it, the wound never healing | entirely, and his leg was so affected as I to keep him a cripple.
