This was in his twenty- sixth year. In Ian. 1877, he was appointed d eputy sheriff of this county. There never was a botler officer in that position, In Jan. 1879 lie was eleoted eonuty treas urer. lie was a faithful keeper ol tho public funds. He felt that public office was a trust; and lie kept the trust reposed iu him invio late. I almost kDOw, that lie never used himself nor permitted any other man to use ouo cent of tho county's money while he was county treasurer. He was a taithfnl steward lie was re-elected to the same office in 1881; and at tho expiration of his seoond term vol untarily retired. During his treasnrership ho studied law in my office, lie made rapid progress, stood a spendid examination, and was admitted to the bar at the Sept, term, 1879, of Washing ton Superior Court. For a short tiuio ho practiced by himself. On Out. 5, 1881, wo formed a partnership to praolice law, which continued till I wont on the bench, Jan 1, 1887. Our partnership re lation was always agreeable. In fact, there waa uot ono unkiDd word, nor one unpleas ant incident during tho six years wo were associated together. This state of things was largely duo to his kind consideration Ho was elected Mayor nf Sandorsvillo iu 1881, and served ono term. In Nov. 188-1 he was eleoted Solicitor Gen oral of the Middle Judicial Circuit Agaio in Nov. 1888 ho was re-elected for a second term of four years front Jnu 1, 1889 Ho tundo au exaellont Solicitor.General Tho above are some of the facts of liis short, but useful life. They carry their own sig nificance upon their faces. Ho was a man ot strong intellect. His conceptions wore clear, his judgment was sound, and his knowledge of human nature profound. His conscience was clear. Ilis uhartctnr was without blemish ; nnd he left hehiud him an hunorublo name. During his term of office ns Solicitor Gen eral ho developed, mentally, very rapidly, it was a marvel to ull. IIo was growing in tellectnally whon ho loll on blessed sleep. Of his success at the bar, and of tho high ostoem iu whioh ho was held in lognl circles, his brethren of the bar will speak in fit me moriul and resolutions at tho approaching torm of our Superior Court. Of hfs worth ns a ohurchmnu his Christian fellows and associates will tell. I happen to know how supremely happy he was in his domestic relations; and how blessed ho felt he waH in his noble wife, and liis promising boy. No words can adequate ly express their sorrow, nor measure their grief. Iu the full prirno of manhood nnd in the midst of great usefulness, he was called to moot the greet Judge, lie declarod himself ready to go. This gives great consolation to those who loved him, aud who aro loft to mourn his curly taking off. James K. Hines. til Sunday uiglit did he lake his bed on tic- oonnt of illness. On Saturday lie was at bis office attending to bis correspondence and othov business, and il was not until Wednes day that grave fears were cuterlained by bn friends that liis illness would prove fatal During Wednesday, Col Rogers was con scious of liis critical coa lition, and remark ed lo some davoted friends, who were ten- jderly watching moilti-1 liis bed, "I liavo had a summons, and I want to arrange my busi ness whilo I c u," and added, "I am resigned and ready to go." Iu compliance with his wishes, liis long cherished Irhud, Judge 1. K Hines, wrote his will, nnd tlm sufferer disburdened ol this care calmly and patiently awaited tho end thnt was so hurriedly approaching. Tho calmness with which he met the end the firmness of liis faith and reliance upon the Prince- and Savior of Israel, as ho passed through the deep waters, will ever oomfort the sorrowing widow, and he gratefully priz ed by his mourning relitivrs aud friends. Around bis dying conch ft noble wife, whose (lovolion knew no weariness, with other loved rtlativrs aud true and anxious friends eagerly watched and waited, rubbing the cold hands, bat’.ilng the parched lips, and guutly ministering iu every possible way that tboy thought might add to his comfort. As tho Mid announcement of liis death wav ma le on the streets on Friday morning, the shadow of a deep sorrow s.cured to fall od every face. All felt tlmt ono of Sanders- ville's ablest aud beat citizens, one of her truest and noblest men, -"an honest man, Iho noblest work o! God,"-had passed from among us. Funeral services were held at 3 p. in. on Friday at the Christian church, conducted by tho l’astor, Rev. F. L Adams. The ohuroti w is crowded with citizens from town and country, many coming Lorn Tennillo to pay a last loving tributo to ono they loved so well. The beautiful and plaintive wordH, “Ncarti My God to Thee," wero sung by tho choir, and a fervent pray- or offered by tho Pastor, followed by the vcolly mournful song Who would livoalway, away from his God.” Tho text was then rest! Irom tho 5th verse of tho r.tb chapter of 21 Corinthians. Iu earnest „ud appropriate words, the life of Col. Rogers was portrayed and hold up as a model worthy ot emulation and of iinitn- tatinu, bis Christian life especially crowning it all and giving it its beauty and symme try. Then after words of solaco aud comfort to the weeping wile aud relatives, tho clos ing services woro rendered, and tho long procession repaired to tho cemetery, aud that uiai.ly lorm by loving hands was laid in its last resting plaoo.
