Death of Mrs. Bratten.
Mrs. Deborah E. Bratten died at
her home iiuthis town Wednesday
morning, Sept., 5, 1001, at i o'
clock, aged 07 years.
Mr. Bratten had been in ill health
for some years, but was generally
able to be up and around the house.
She was taken worse on Monday, but
even her most intimate friends had
no idea death was so near, and were
shocked on Wednesday morning to
learn that she was dead.
She was loved by all who knew
her, and it is hard for us to give her
up, especially this writer, who loved
her as a mother. To say that this
christian woman had the love and
esteem of more than any other one
person in the com ni unit, is simple
truth.
She was a consistent member of
the M. E. Church of this town, and
had been since early childhood.
She leaves one brother, Mr. Jos.
A. Latham, of Onancock, Va. ; one
daughter, Mrs. W. V. Scarborough,
of Edenton, and three sons, all liv
ing in Plymouth, besides a host of
relatives and friends to jnourn her
death.
'1 he remains were laid to rest in
the M. E. Uh inch yard yesterday
afternoon, bv her pastor, L'ev. Mr.
lbilfalo.
Prevented A Tragedy.
Timely information given Mrs. George
Long, of New Straitsville, Ohio, prevented
a dreadiul tragedy and suved two lives. A
frightful cough had long kept her awake
every night. She had tried many remedies
and doctors but steadily grew worse until
urged to try Dr. King's New Discovery.
One bottle wholly cured her, and she writes
this marvelous medicine also cured Mr.
Long of a severe attack of Pneumonia.
Such cures are positive proof of tho match
less merit of this grand remedy for curing
all throat, chest and lung troubles. Only
50c and $1.00. Every bottle guaranteed.

The debt of nature is one debt that a man
is dunned to death for before he settles.

Dr. C. J. Moffett Dear Sir : I can ' as
sure you that your TEETHINA (Teething
Powders) is indispensable to ns, and in no
single instance has it ever proved a failure.
