Mrs. Jessie Davidson
Passes To Beyond.
Thursday morning, September
13, just as the soft beams of the
waning moon spread over the home
from behind the Ilorserange moun¬
tain, the invisible part of the visi¬
ble body of Mrs. ]essie Davidson,
wife of the late Peter Davidson, be¬
came a living soul in tlie unseen
worlds above, leaving the material
body cold in the embrace of death,
at the hour of 4 130.
Her health had not been good for
many years, but during the past
few months prior to her passing
away she had been more or less un¬
able to be out. Site bore her sick¬
ness with patience, and with a full
consciousness that the end was
near many weeks before the final
separation of the material and the
spiritual bodies.
In her youth she became a mem¬
ber of the Presbyterian church and
lived a life Consistent’ with her re¬
ligious belief until death.
During her illness everything
possible for her comfort was done
by those most near and dear to her,
for whom she had done so much.
Her remains were laid to rest in
Mt. Pleasant cemetery Friday at
j 1 o’clock in presence ot a large
concourse of friends, Rev. II. M.
Edwards, conducting the funeral
services.

Drafted Men Given Pleasant Evening
Before Entraining For Camp.
V ednesday morning seven other
young men left White county for
training at Camp Gordon to pre
pare themselves to give personal
aid in bringing the world to '“de¬
mocracy, freeing all peoples and
bringing all nations to that great
level so long desired and promul¬
gated by the Lord and Master
Jesus Christ Ilitnself.
Could man be engaged in a nobler
and more glorious task? Should
these young men be engaged in the
firing lines in the battles yet to lie
fought in Europe against the
strong and almost invincible
powers fixed and firmly founded
against all good, they will return
for we hope they will all return —
each one glorified for having taken
part in that work of bringing to
future generations everlasting
"peace and good will toward all
mankind.’’ These men who go
lighting in foreign lands are truly
missionaries gone forth to light
and to win the world to Christ,
lor! however much of hell there
m iy be in actual warfare there will
arise from the debris flowers ol
righteousness surpassing anything
ever beheld by eyes of the present
generation. For in the words of
old i’nthemius of the fifteenth cen
tuary, ‘'Europe will be shaken, it
will he the scene of frightful
battles; Germany will lose its
[rower and will submit to a pro¬
digious n basement.”
