A
Death of Mr. Jerry Wilson.
Just one week ago to night the sombre
winged augc-1 passed over the little
town of Hampton, and laid his cold
touch upon the Manly form of our es
teemed friend, so familiarly known as
Jerry Wilson. Mr. Wilson was ex
tensively knowu throughout a large
portion of Georgia as a trained efiicieut
workman who had been in the em
ploy of the Central R R. company for
many years. Much of his time he was
away from his home and family owing
to the nature of the service he was
rendering. Those who knew him best
were constrained to observe and ad
mire his many traits of character that
were worthy of imitation, he being un
swervingly faithful to every obligation
that he assumed.
Mr. Wilson was a native of our
south land, born and raised in Georgia
and Georgia was the home he loved
He was just in the full bloom of his
manhood when the stern looking mes
seuger called at his late home to arreet
him and carry him to the charnel house
a prisoner. In his early manhood he
was married to Miss Susie Turner, and
was true and faithful to the sacred ob
ligation he took at the marriage altar.
It is not material to our purpose to
occupy the entire space of an extended
obituary. The demise of our loved
ones is no unusual occurence—one by
one we are all gathering at the river.
Death and the grave is the common
heritage of us all. After passing be
yond the boundaries of this moital life,
all our judgement concerning the final
destiny of our friends is then at an end.
They then pass under the supreme
jurisdiction of the infinite Jehovah
who.-e mercy endureth forever. Al]
things work together after the render
ings of his immutable counsel. He
who can bow the heavens and change
the line of march with moving planets
can bold aloft the immutability of his
holiness and be the justifier of all
who put their trust in him. A failure
j on the part of others, in neglecting
their duly, furnishes do excuse for us
to make a similar failure.
Our belowd friend has built his last
; bridge over which pounderous trains
are moving But the cross of Christ
spans a stream of blood over which a
bridge is built, whose pillars rest upon
the strong hold of the everlasting cove
nant. Say ye to the bereft wisdom
“your separation is not forever. The
dark curtained train is continually run
ning, and soon it will “show up” ai
our station and take us aboard, l’ro
cure your tickets aud have your hag
gage all checked, for that won’t
tarry.
Jerry Wilson was born in Thomas
county on the 9th day of May, 1851
and‘died at Hampton in Henry Co.,
Ga., on the 23d of Sept, 1895 —was
hurried at Berear in the midst of a
vast concourse of relatives and numer
ous triends. Let hint sweetly sleep till
the trumpet sounding is heard at Be
rear. W. T. G.
When a person begins to grow thin
there is something wrong. The waste
is greater than the supply and it is
only a question of time when the end
must come.
In uiue cases out of ten the trouble
is with the digestive organs. If you
can restore them to a healthy condition
you will stop the waste, put on new
flesh and cause them to feel better in
every way. The food they eat will be
digested aud appropriated to the needs
of the system, and a normal appetite
will appear.
Consumption frequently follows a
wasting of bodily tissue because near
ly all consumptives have indigestion
The Shaker Digestive Cordial will re
store the stomach to a healthy condi
tion in a vast majority of cases. Get
one of their books from your druggist

remedy.

It is a noticeable fact that the Con
stitution is charging the weekly papers
that club with it twenty five cent* more
per copy this fall than it did last. The
reason given is “returning prosperity,
brighter business outlook and increasing
prices.” And all this under Clete
land and the gold standard. This is
an apt illustration of the Consti’s con
sisteucy in all its talk about deprecia

Miss Lucie McDonald, at her pretty

meet l.er once again at this gladsome
season of the year, for five years lias
she been absent at the Prebyterian
Female Seminary at Greenville, S. C.
On approaching the house bright
lights shone thro’ the windows and
doorways. Houghs of crimson and
gold autumn leaves wreathed pictures
and mantels ; golden rod and field
daisies brightened walk and alcove.
The refreshments were served by two
rosy cheeked, bright hearted lassies,
Misses Lois and Mattie McDonald,
who were attired in dainty caps and
frilled aprons. “Topic cards,” games
and cliarad s were indulged, con
tributing a fund of merriment. Miss
Lucie McDonald received her guests in
a dainty gown of creamy meterial
adorned with laces and silken ribbons.
She is a petite maiden, with a spark
ling grace and sunny presence. Miss
Elou McDonald assisted in receiving
and was handsome it; a black costume
and golden rod. The guests wandered
homeward in the silvery moonlight,
which cast radiance soft and mist,-like.

‘ Ob, yes,” said the eDgineer, “I had
a chance to become a hero by sticking
to iny post when the collision came,
but when I reflected that my name
would be spelled 500 different ways in
the newspapers, I changed my mind
and jumped.”

editorially of a popular patent medicine:
“We know from experience that Cham

Business I’rospects South.
'I lio Manufacturers’ Record recently
stated that the high price of cotton this
year would offset the decrease in acre
age. F’ollowiug out the same thought
the New York Journal of Commerce
claims that this year's crop has been
produced at a cost of more than $40.-
000,000 less than last year’s, while it
is probable that higher prices will
cause the total value of the crop to be
larger than even that of last year’s
10, hale yield. According to
the Journal of Commerce’s calculations
the crop this year ought to be worth
to the south iu net result at least $50,-
000,000 more than last year’s was.
“The Common I’eople,”
As Abraham Lincoln called them, do
not eare to argue about their ailments.
What they want is a medicine that will
cure them. The simple, honest state
ment, “1 know that Hood’s Sarsaparil
la cured me,” is the best argument in
favor of this medicine, and this is what
many thousands voluntarily say.
