For eight or ten years before his
death Mr. Dent had made his home in

rived here about live weeks ago. He
was as delighted an a child tobPamong
"hotnefolks” again, as he expressed it,
and many hearts have been touched
witli sadness by his sudden taking off.

ward and honest in all tilings, and
these sterling traits were fully ap
preciated by those who knew him.
Mr. Dent was about (IS years of age,
and unmarried. Ilis brothers are
Messrs. Wade and J. E. Dent, of this
city, and H. W. Dent, of Atlanta.
