He gives a remarkable account, illustrating the personal peculiarities “of people. Aliout twenty-seven years ago Garrett Williams, a respected citizen of that sec tion, and u soldier in the Confederate army, returned from the war, and con ceived the idea <*f being buried in a way that was decidedly at variance with the established custom. Jn a lovely spot on 1-liill, amid an oak thicket, away from the traveled road, he selected a spot and had four lightwood posts atttu the ground and extending about seven feet from the surface. On this he had constructed a substantial house of tongue i) grooved lumber, about fire feet wide, eight feet long and four feet high, with a door at one end. There ho desired his remain* placed at hi* death and hb wish is complied with. Mr. Allison, ^with a friend, drove out to the spot on Monday, opened the door and viewed the remain*, simply the skeleton with the decayed clothing, the top of the coffin having Iwcn removed at previous date. On the inside of the door was written in pencil, "Trust * mediator lietween the Sunday school and the church.
