A TRIItl iK In the morning of Friday, June; the third very early, the death; angel visited the home of Mr. P.! H. Allen, and called him from j Labor to his Keward. The writer of this knew him [ welt. Mr. Allen was a trustful! | man. In his own ability he knew what it took to make a good citi-j zen. I I wouldn't be specially inter- 1 ested in Mr. Allen but because of j 'the work and good he did while; | he lived. Mr. Allen was a spot-; less man. There was no one who; icould touch him. He/carried a! | loving and kindness to all those; |that knew him best. His influ-| jence in the community in which; I he lived was great. Then all who ! knew him was his friend. Mr. Allen was 67 years of age. ; ! In his ways of living and dealing I jwith his fellowman was a Chris-! tian service. He was willing to j j help all those who call on him. Mr. Allen was a great man. a gentleman and a scholar. He was; loved by all. Loutsburg has lost a great man, a great' man in Israel has fallen. The need of Mr. Allen at pres- j ent is so great and his interest in j our to^rn welfare was so keen that 'his death seems impossible. It ilSeems such a hideous dream, but j surely God has his mysteries of grace and ways we cannot tell, j There was no justice to Ohe ; well to do that he didn't accord > readily and cheerfully. There was i ! no mercy to the poor and the sor rowing that he didn't minister to, j the limit of his power. We can ( nob express our grief when a good i 'man dies. The community feels [the vacancy when an Intelligent mind is withdrawn forever from its service. | It is true he has his period of i youth and of old age, but like the! 1 oak whose withered branches 1 have stood the storms and gales jof years gone by. I shall not at< i tempt to sour the safety height of fames and his character, neither ( will I plough the depth of his manhood, but I do say he was a man. Mr. F. H. Allen leaves a wife and six children and two brothers and a host of friends. Mr. Allen isn't det.d but' -he has just turned the corner. EUTRICT HAZELWOOD. j Mr. and Mrs. W.

G. W. Blacknall have gone to Morehead City to see about the opening of the Atlantic Hotel." Some time ago one man's name was omitted in this column, in connection with two others on a lengthy trip, whose names were . given. In regard to the "com plaint" it might be stated that personal notices, either by corres pondents or newspapers, are not intended as a special compliment! to those whose names are men tioned. but merely as a matter of interest to themselves, their friends and other readers of the papers. It may be said also after quite a little bit of experience that I have never yet known a person to object to having his name put in the paper in a pleas ant way. As to the other way around, well, that's something else. Mrs. R. Frank Freeman and children, of Charlotte, are visiting Mrs. Freeman's parents, Mr. and Mrs. George Manning. Prospects are unfavorable for a fair cotton crop in this communi ty. the stand being generally poor and the plants small and inferior.

Miss Mary Louise Foster, of the Long Island Home, Amity ville, New York, is visiting Mr. and Mrs. P. S. Foster on her an nual vacation. She is a sister of Mr. Foster.
