At an early hour yesterday morning anot .er naraa was stricken from the ever lessening roll of our settlers, that of Mr. Calvin Andrews, one of our old est educators, and a good and highly respect! citizen. Aged 83 years. Mr. Andrews died at the home of his son, Mr. A. L. Andrews, in Bethel church- neighborhood. He had been in feeble health fir many years, but Kept up until about a week ago be took his bed and gradually weakened until the end. The funeral and burial will take place1 tomorrow (Fri day) at 11 o'clock at Bethel church, of which he was consis tent member. Rev. McDuffie will conduct the services. His son. Rev. Ira E.' D. Andrews, who is in Louisville, Ky.. is ex pected to arrive in time for the burial. He was a man of excellent habits, fine moral character, and sturdy constitution, and he con tinued to be active in hi3 school work till long past the age at which men ordinarily crop out d( the ranks of the workers. He was a practical matter-of-fact man, but had his own peculiar way of extracting merriment from life, as it went along, and he was not disposed to worry about matters that could be bet tered in other ways. This cheer ful spirit remained with him to the last, and he retained his clearness pf intellect up to his closing days. He was the found er of Andrews' Academy, where he spent his whole life in train ing the minds of the yodng. His worth to the community cannot be estimated. His best monu mcnt will be the good report that he has left behind him in the community in which he has lived for more than 70 years. Peace to the ashes of this soldier, teach er and Christian gentleman. pioneer society into form and consistency, and aid in raising a high standard of citizenship in our community. How much this community owes him and such as he, it is impossible to estimate, though it would be a grateful tfiik . to trace his influence through' some of the more direct channels, to hold him up in these degenerate days, in his various characters ofhusband and father, neighbor and friend, to speak of the sons and daughters ha. ha? reared to' perpetuate his name and em ilatejhis virtues. But it comes not within the scope of this brief article to do so. Suf fice it to say, he lived nobly and died peacefully at the advance age of 82 years. The stern Reaper found him, "a3 a shock of corn, full ripe for the har vest." Not for him be our tears! rath er let us crown his grave with garlands; few of us will live as long or as well, and fewer yet will the Angel of Death greet with such a loving touch. Mr. McP.auley would have been married on the 23th. inst. to his second wife bad he lived. He. was returning from a visit to his intended when he was thrown from his buggy and received in juries which brought on his ill ness. The young lady who was to have been his bride, lives in Chatham county. She has the sympathy of friends in Ithe sad hour of her afflictions. , .
