Entered in rr-si, Saturday momirg at 2 o'clock, B. II ji derron Dunsion, in the 68 h year of hs g.-. A popular and honored citizen of K.leigh tie had gath ered about him a wide orcle of the most prominent ci iz ns of his native city, to whom his many chivalrous qualities of head aud heart ha I tenderly endean d him. Courtly in mann-r, podshed in style, g-nerous ant maidy in impulse, honest in all hisdeali. g-t wih his feilow man, he hd not an ei emy anywhere. Though affliction tad laid its heav , re lenlly hand upon him, ad it was known that his etay on earth could i-ot be pr.) longed beyond a lew nh ort months, still the sad end cst a gloom wherever he was known and tie ws known to us all tnd men aud women tnr .ugh uc the city mingled t ir t-orrow w ith tlie tor row of his bffectionaie relatives as they heard the unhidden story of his demise. Durir g the man loi gyeaisthe writer bad enj yed his acquaintance he was a constant attendant up n the religious pervices of So. Pair's A. M. E. church. Though not a communicant of that churcn he took a deep in'eresc in its progress, contm uiing libertilly on all oc casions to its en.erprpses and to the sup port of the Go-p 1. Before his death he professed savn g faith in the Lord Josus and died triumphantly. For many yars Mr. Dunston was As sistant Chief of Police ot the city of Ral eigh, and I have often heard it remarked that it was almost an honor t j be arrested b him, s gentlemanly was his way of dealing with tho-e over wh im the strong arm of the law compelled him to exercise authority. lie was a noble type of toe old school gmtleman arid it is aad to know that type is in its decadence.

Con lid ence and security are the rewards of vigilance and industry. Two merni era of the Louisburg bar Messrs. Pioket and Crudup gave fine ad ires es, full of wholesome advice. The president, Rev.

Ab u 11 o'clock all left for their homes, l-rr,nwing the best wishes for tne fu ure htppinss and prosperity of the newly manied c uple. The entire affair was well arranged and cicely cairied out. For the Gazette. There hive been fewer prettier home weddings in our town, where msrri'ge is so frequent, than the one which took pla- e Tnurrda evening. 23 1 ins;., at the lesidence of Mr. and M-s. G. C.Shaw, the c ntracti'ig pnrties being M ss Karie N. Hughes, of Mry Potter Memorial School here, and Rev. II. L. McCroiy, an arsistant professor at Biddle University. The ceiemony was private, only a dozen near friends, including the board ir.g pupils, were present. But this ex-clusivenes- stemed to have added to rather than taken away from the effect of the tccasion, for as the handsomely gowned bride, who had become sud denly ill the night previous, was slowly led from her sick apartment into the parlor to t".e march on the piano, assisted on either side by Mrs. G. C. Shaw and the groom, there was afforded a picture which was at once sweetly serene and very be mtiful. Rev. G. C. Shaw then, nfter the form f the Presbyterian Church, solemnly joined together the lives of the two persons. A number of elegai t and serviceable presents were given ; among them was a fine rocking chair by the Biddle Uni versity class of '98. The b.ide and groom were to have left on their honemjon the game evening for a two week's visit in S mth Carolina, the native home of the latter, but because of her illness the trip was postponed until Situr iay. W. E. FRANKLIN. December 29, 1897. Mr. Jerry Pole, of Clayton, killed a ten months old pig which weighed 325 pounds. It is said to have baen the largest pig ever killed in that town. Editor Gazette: Dear Jtr Permit me to say a word through the c uns of your paper con cerning thr mv -,. of our people and somethi . se New Era Insti tute held n s; ek in the Spring Garden Church. otwithstanding the apparent lull in business circles and the quietness in trade, our people are pros pering, and there is now brighter out look for our people than for many years. All are hopeful. Now, in regard to the Institute, I de sire to say that it was my pleasure to at tend the meeting continuously almost from the begirnmg. Rev. C. C. Sumer yille, D strict Mi-sionary, called the meet ing to order at 10 o'clock Tuesday morn ing and requested Rev. Moore to conduct de votional exercise. The meeting opened lively and the large number of ministers present participated in hearty expres sions of thankfulness and praise. The lectures on Biblical Theology and Church History, delivered by Rev. Sumerville, were as good as I have ever heard from any source. Rev. J. N. B oth, pastor of the white church, lectured on Christian Benificence, the Chuch and Distinctive Baptist Principle, and to eay that he covered the subject, instructing and ben efiting all his auditors, is t J put it mildlv. He certa'n y handles his subjects with great ease and precision. Perhaps one of the grandest lectures and certainly the most unique, was de livered by Rev. J. A. Faulk, of Hertford, on the Gospel Ministry. He covered every phase of the subject, and in such a way that the hearers will never forget what was said. The General Missionary, Rev. J. A. Whitted, seemed at hi3 best while he lectured on Missions. The meeting was the best ever held in Washington, and it is admitted without contradiction that all the people have been greatly benefi t ?d. The ministry Beems to take on new life. Too much praise cannot be given Mr. W. A. Bri i- Ers, Revs. Blount, Pender and C. C. awsou for the part they contributed to make the meetiug a success. The Woman's Home Mission Society was ably represented by M.ss Lizzie Lee, who read one of the finest papers on Woman's Work that I have ever listened to. The ladies of Spring Garden and St. John Baptist churches, together with other ladies, took a hand in the financial interest and assisted in bringing up a financial report hard to surpass any where. The District Missionary, Rev. C. C. Sumt-rville, is one of the most assiduous workers I have ever met, and his supe rior is hard to find anywhere. Long live the New Era Institute and the plan of co-operation for North Caro lina. NEWBERN NEWS. Mrs. Mary Peuder, the mother of Rev. W. H. Pender, died December 31. 1897, at her home in Newbern, N.
