OBITUARY of George Rusaell Sander* George Russell Sanders was bhe oldest son of H. T. and Miss Myrtle Sanders, being at bhe time of his death about 22 years old}. He was horn Feb. lfifch, 1903, and died on tha 20th day of January, 1925. George Russell joined the Metho dist Church at Danielsville at an ear ly a#e and was always one of it 9 ■•ost faithful and loyal members. From his earliest childhood he was a member of the Sunday School, and continued so until a short time be fore bis death. He loved the church acud the Sunday School and his whole life was both an example and an in spiration to all. He was cut down m early manhood because of a dead ly heart leison, having battled with this condition flor more than seven years. But even in file faoe of such a deadly attack of the above named •audition he did nut on a good fight, and was always cheerful aud patieut, and was always looking on the bright side, and wishing f*r the ht. Living, he taught us the love ,*f Go*l and right and honesty and jus tice, and he had that kindliness, af fection and devotion fo-i his home— that is. his father and mother and brother, which made all love him so much. All these things made the sweetness of his life. Within our memory there was never a young man reared in and around this towu and county who had more friends. If he had an enemy it is not known. Many centuries ago a wise man said, “By two wings r man is lifted up from things earthly, namely, hy simplicity and puritv.” We eannot doubt that the splendid young man tfiat George Russell was has gone to share the reward that remains for the pure in heart, who, ia all truth aud fidelity was such a man. Well might be said of him, that: “This life was gentle and the elements So mixed in him that nature might stand up, And say to all the world, ‘This was a man.’ ” Tie ha-; left us a shining example of his life well spent, while yet so short, yet with many, many kind words and deeds which shall always live. “In peace it was his let to die, In peace, O may his ashes lie; And sweetest peace, while ages roll, Attend his noble, manly soul.” —His Sunday School Class MISSIONARY SOCIETY OF UNION CHURCH The Woman’s Missionary Society held their usual monthly meeting, Miss Clara Candler as president. After scripture reading, opening prayer was by Mrs. J. R. O'Kelley. The Personal Service Chairman, Mrs J. V.
