"None knew him but to lov

Or named bim but to praise. "
It was not a though a light
ning blast bad laid bim low, for
th grateness of his illness and
it probable fata termination had
been reoognixsd for a week, but
the full realization of the 'dread

sorrow. II suffered an attack of
typhoid fever in mild form three
weeks, ago' aad until last week
thai was every reason to belitve
that hi -recovery -was certain
Complication set In, however,
and his brave ipirit has for seven
day been tearing the borderland.
Mar, women and children, high
and humble, white and black
share the poignant grief his no
timely taking iff has produced.
Pathetic, even heart-rending be
yond the power of words' to pic
ture, I th desolation of his aged
mother. Their mutual devotion
wa beautiful. ' Th youngest of
her tore sons b ws always to

His big heart responded to every
