Nothing has such concentrated, pene

July 2, 192:!.-"
Dear Free I’ress:
We have recently often been sadden
ed by the departure from mortal life of
our freinds this, it seems to us, has
been more frequent of late, than ever
before. On Monday last, Juno 25th,
19211, another old and very dear friend,
and universally beloved citizen of Car-
roll county was added to the departed
ones, in the person of Butler Martin.
Ho lind for quite a long time been in
declining health, but liis death is a
grievous shock to thousands of friends,
who have loved and respected him dur
ing his long and useful life. AVc all
mouru; for a mighty good one, from
those we loved, lias been tnken away.
He was a brother in church and in other
great institutions to tho writer, whom
we ever reckoned as one of our most
appreciated friends, lmt we hope he lias
gone to his happiness and peace for-
Aml another much esteemed friend,
Will Hay, lias also, we hear, gone, as
we all soon must, to the eternal side
of the River of Time. We ever liked
him, for lie had many good and noble
(|iialitics and was of a good family,
whom we have long known and loved.
Pence to Butler ami pence to Will,
Each of whom now, his grave does fill;
We, too, shall soon lie low as they,
Be waiting for tho judgment flay!
Re ready, oh, be ready, friend,
For soon this life, with us must, end;
Be ready for eternity,
And pray for self and .T. W. B.
Air. and Airs. Tom AVehli had an
other fine bov born to thorn at 0 a. m.,
Line 26th, 1923. This makes them
five bovs and one girl living.
J. W. B.
The subject of this sketch, Mr. I). H.
Ilorton, was for years our much appre
ciated and highly esteemed neighbor.
Our friend departed this life on the
I2th day of May, at his home near
Americus, Ga., at the ago of 67 years,
lie came very near living the three
score and tbn years allotted to man, and
during this long period of years, Air.
Horton, or “Uncle Dave,” as we often
called him, was blessed with good health
until the last four or five years of liis
stay on earth, but no human tongue
can tell the suffering that this friend I
endured the last flays of his earthly life. I
But we believe Uncle Dave is now at |
rest, free from all pain or sorrow and ]
care.
Uncue Dave leaves an aged father |
who has lived here almost a century,
a wife nnd fifteen children, besides a
host of grandchildren nnd seven great
grandchildren, and friends by tlie hun
dreds.
He was the father of seventeen chil
dren—nine boys and eight girls, and
they are nil living except two boys.
He was laid to rest at Salem church,
his funeral servico being conducted by
Rev. H. J. Holiday, assisted by Rev. T.
A. Bonner and Rev. C. At. Sprewell.
A friend,

did well. Ajso a great part toward
her grandchildren and great, grhqdchil-
dreii. We all loved her, but I think I
loved her best. How my .mind goes
back to my childhood days when I
would toll hor of my little joys, she
would say: “ You come just to tell mo
about it?” She was never Into nt
anything and always filled her place
in the Church. She lived a devoted
Christian lifo for nearly eighty-five
years. Her vacant place can never bo
filled, and oh how hard to give her
up. But our loss is her gaiir.
We want to take this method of
thanking the good neighbors who so
kindly administered to lier every need.
Her funeral services were conducted
by Rv. B. F. Earnest at Alt. Zion church
whore she lived, and there wo left hor
resting beneath tho beautiful and fra
grant flowers to awake in the flower

How To Get Relief When Head
