Association, died yesterday morning at 1:30 o'clock in Riverside Infirmary, Charleston, S. C, where he had been ill a little more than a week. The news reached the city early yesterday morning through the medium of private telegrams to friends and members of the family and everywhere it "brought forth ex pressions of the most sincere regret and of sympathy for the family so sorely bereaved.' Mr. Thompson was attacked with hemorrhages while on his way to Brunswick, Ga., on a busi ness trip, leaving Wilmington Tues day a week ago. He went to Charles ton where he could get the best of medical and surgical attention and on Friday, yesterday a week ago, his con dition became such that Mrs. Thomp son was telegraphed for. She , left that evening via Wilson and was with her husbantd until the "fend, being later joined before the death by two of Mr. Thompson's sdstETs, Mrs. J. O. Cas tleberry, and Mrs. Rosa Grant, of At lanta, Ga. Mr. Thompson's condition did not improve and the family phy sician. Dr. D. "W. Bulluck, was sum moned Wednesday of this week. He left immediately and was with the sick man uritfl he passed away. The patient's condition was improved Thursday morning, it was thought but after that be "had .a turn for the worse and in spite of everything that could be done for him, he peacefully passed over the-river with a benedic tion upon his lips for the faithful wife and Bisters -who? watched, so tenderly W Ui.

He came to Wilming ton when a mere lad and was first em ployed In the large dry gods establish ment f Captain R. M. Mcjntyre. Later he went with the Rhelnstein Dry Goods Company as traveling sales man, remaining on, tne ro&a ror a considerable number of years and making a large number of friends not only personally but for his house. De elding to give up the road about 12 years ago, he went to Rockingham, N. C, and went into business for him self. It was here that his health gave way and he was forced to return to Wilmington and recuperate. He had never since been strong and had been In the last ten years' to various resorts in search of health. About ten years ago he went with the Eagle Paper Company, of Richmond, Va., travel ling the States of North and South Carolina and Georgia.

He was prominent In the councils of the Travelers' Protective Association in North' Carolina and was president of Post G, of this city, next to the largest in the State. It was organized and largely brought up to its high standard through Mr. Thompson. Last year he was National Representative and attended the general convention of the United States at Buffalo. Mr. Thompson married Miss Mag gie Hodges, of Wilmington, and their home life for a score - of years had been beautiful. The family occupied one of the prettiest residences in Wil mington at northeast corner of Sev enth and Walnut streets. Mr. Thomp son is survived . by his wife, five chil dren, three brothers and three sisters. The children are 'Miss Carrie, Henry, Maggie Mary, Jack C. and Rosa B. Thompson, the oldest 17 and the youngest two years of age. The three brothers are In the west. The sisters are Sirs, Castleberry and Mrs. Grant, of Atlanta, and Mrs. Lonnie Wells, of Elm City, N. C. They have the sln- cerest sympathy of many friends in the bereavement that is theirs. Dr. Bulluck, Mrs... Thompson and Mrs. Grant, who were with Mr. Thomp son when he-died, returned on the early afternoon train ' yesterday, and the remains accompanied, by Mrs. Cas tleberry and a friend, Mr. Ortmann, of Charleston arrived last night.

Mr. Thompson was a member of St. John's Lodge, No. 1 A. F. and A. M.; Cape Fear Lodge No. 2, 1. O. O. F. and Jerfferson Lodge No. 61, Knights of Pythias.
