V' f If. T. REYNOLDS' DEATH PROMINENT CITIZEN OF ASHE VILLE 60NE. THE SAD EVENT OCCURRED AT 2:21 A. M. DEATH DVB TO ERVHIPKI.A8 AND HEART TROUBLE. Tis sad news that The Citukn bears to many of its readers today. Alderman William T. Reynolds is dead. One week ago today Mr. Reynolds whs up town attending to his business. He whs then suffering from heart trou ble, an attack of which he had experienced about a week before. He returned to is borne on Woodtin street and went to bed. Then Mr, Reynolds took the grip, from an attack ot which he bad nerer fully recovered. He became very ill, and a short while erysipelas set ia. His physician, Dr. J. A. Burroughs, was immediately called in, and it was thought for a few days that the suffer er's life could be saved. But on Thursday alarming symptoms developed and the gravest fears were ntcrtained by those who knew Mr. evnolds' true condition. Dr. Bur roughs called to assist him Drs. John Hey Williams and W. D. Hilliard, and every effort possible was exerted to ar rest the progress of the disease. Yesterday morning Mr. Reynolds be came delirious, remaining in that state, except now and then a momentary consciousness, until his death, which oc curred just us the hands of the clock in the death chamber poiuted to twenty- one minutes past two o'clock this morn ing. The scene at the death bed was one to wring the stoutest heart. His family nu the menus who have been with him the hours of his illness new that the end was near. Around bis bedside stood his aged mother and is devoted wile; Dr. Burroughs, Dr. Wil liams; N. A. Reynolds, John Reynolds, and Henry Reynolds, his brothers; Misses Sue and Anuic Reynolds, his sis ters; J. W. Speurs, bis brother-in-law; Mrs. spears, his mother -in-law; Cbas. W. Malone, N. B. Atkinson, Joseph Sevier and Daniel Sevier. The funeral services will occur tomor row atternoon at 3 oclock. in Cen tral Methodist church, conducted by Rev. C. W. Byrd, alter which the remains will be interred in the family plot in Riverside cemetery. Mr. Reynold.' Life. William T. Reynolds was born in Ashe ville on the 14th day of October, 1850, his birthplace being the Brand house on North Main street. On October 6. 1880. he was married to Miss Mamie Spears, daughter of George Spears, who, with four children, three sons and a daughter, survive him. Mr. Reynolds has been in the active ser vice ol the city and county since 187'J, when he was appointed city tax collector and city marshal, holding the position for two years. In the year 1884 he was elected a member ot the board ot alder men of the city of Asheville, and held the office for one year, resigning to accept the appointment to tne clerkship ol the superior court of Buncombe, made by Judge J. C. L. Gudger, to till the unex pired term ot b. W. Herndon, who died in office. In 1886 he was elected clerk for the regular four year term. In May last Mr. Reynolds was eleeted on the rcgulnr democratic aldermanic ticket by a large majority, which office he held up to the time ol his death. The City's) Lous. In the death ol Alderman Reynolds Asheville loses one of her best known and most progressive citizens, and the news of his death will shock every citizen eveu though he may not have had the pleasure ot Mr. Reynolds' acquaintance in life. His tireless energy has been ex pended in this his native city, and the improvements he has added to Asheville will long stand a monument to bis pro grcssiveness. I he Grand opera bouse block, the Reynolds block on bouth Main street, and theMimnatigh store on Patton avenue are examples ol the work be has done in this way tor Asheville. Up to bis.death Mr. Reynolds was as sociated with l. w. spears in tne man agement ut the livery stable on Water street, and up to last week was joint manager with Mr. spears ot the Grand opera house, which magnificent building was erected by Reynolds & Spears more than two years ago. The Man, As a man, Mr. Reynolds was upright conscientious and ot the strictest hon esty and integrity, with his mind once made up nothing could deter him from the course which he believed to be the true And he was equally willing always to acknowledge an error when convinced that one hud been made. As a triend, those who knew bim can in all candor say that a truer one never breathed. With him friendship was not merely a speaking acquaintance. It was friendship in the fullest sense of the word And no sacrifice which lav in his oower seemed too great to make in behalf of anv man who was his friend. He was genial, companionable spirit and always met his Iriends with a nappy smile and a hearty grasp of the band. One ol the last official acts of the alderman was the introduction, at the meeting of the board the day before his last sickness seized him, of a resolution providing for the payment of three months' extra salary to the widow and orphans of Patrolman Palmer, who died from the effects of a wound received while in the discharge of his duty, That was the man just, honest, kind, a staunch friend, and a man beloved by everybody who knew him Thb Otkbn recalls the last conversa tion with Alderman Reynolds. It was last Saturday afternoon on court place He bad just given the reporter the newt ot the lease ot the Grand opera bouse, The snow was falling then, and Mr. Key nolds looking well and hearty, drove away with theremark, "I must go home; I am sick." Just one short week from life and health to death. Asheville cannot yet realize her real loss. The sympathies of the people of the en tire community go out to the bereaved ones in this dark hour. Official Action. A joint meeting of the aldermen and advisors was held in the mayor's office today at 12 o'clock. There were pres ent Aldermen Brevard, Leonard, Starnes, McDowell aiid Gudger, and Advisors Summey, Scott, Hunt and Conant. On motion it was resolved that all of the city officials should meet at the mayor's ohice tomorrow at 2 o clock p. m. and attend the funeral of the late Alderman Reynolds in a body. The office of the clerk of the superior court is closed this afternoon as a mark of respect to Alderman Reynolds, who was clerk of this court for a period of five years. CARDINAL, MANNING.

THE DEAD DUKE'S FUNERAL THE INTERMENT WILL TARE PLACE WEDNESDAY, The Statement That Queen Vic toria la nils Untrue Hue Will At tend the Funeral The Remains Will be Placed lu a Crypt In HI. George's Chapel. London, Jan. 16. Preparations for the funeral of the Duke of Clarence and Avondule are being made on all sides, at Snndringham by the railway companies and at Windsor castle. It is believed that the statements re garding the condition ot the Queen's health are grossly exaggerated. As had before been stated she is greatly effected by the death of her favorite grandson, and her depression would naturally tend to make her more liable to an attack of the prevailing epidemic of influenza, but that she is seriously, or at all unwell, is not shown by the arrangements that have been made for her presence at the lunerul ceremonies. As has now been decided, her majesty will remain at Osborne house until either Monday night or Tuesday morn ing. She will then proceed on the royal yacht to Portsmouth, trom which place a special train will convey her to Lon don, She will arrive at Windsor castle early Tuesday. The body ol the duke will be conveyed from Sundringham and will arrive at Windsor castle on the same day. All the details of the luueral have not been arranged, but it is announced posi tively that the interment will take place at noon Wednesday. The body will be placed in a crypt in St. George's chapel.
