Mappin, after a short but violent and painful illness. His sudden and unex pected death was quite a shock to his many friends. For a number of years he w r as a faithful and efficient super visor on the Central railroad. Much exposure and hardship in the dis charge of his duty had the effect no doubt of impairing his constitution, and a year or two since he resigned his position and w r ent into business in this city. He was a faithful confeder ate soldier throughout the late civil war, having served in the ranks of the Baldwin Blues. He was a man of excellent traits of character and had numerous friends. His age was about forty-eight years, and he leaves a wid ow and three children to mourn their irreparable loss. He w r as a member of the Methodist church and also a mason. The Rev. Mr. Hammond conducted the funeral services and the masonic fraternity buried him in our cemetery with the imposing rites of their order. A good and useful man has gone to his rest and leaves a good record and an ex cellent example to those who knew him and appreciated his worth. P. J. Cline & Co. are offering special inducements this week in white goods for commencement dresses. TO COUNTRY MERCHANTS.
