His Life of 71 YearsA Devoted Hem ber of the Presbyterian Church and an Ardent Lover of flasonry Spinal Affection His Chronic Malady. Mr. James O II BarkhoaJ passed calmly away in death this (Tburs !ay) mornirg at 4 30 o'clock . His death was not nneip'Cted and, in view of the hopele suess of recoyery, his exit from this to an assuredly brighter sphere, must be hailed in tbe light of omnipolont beneficence. Mr. Burkhiad has been sfllicted for long years with spinal affeotions whiob has advanced in its Binges recently till it prostrated him on August 15th, since which it has rapidly sapped bis physical and even bis mental powers. Mr. Burkhead is too well known here and elsewhere to need more than a mere rehearsal of bis life of quiet, inoffensive, though perservers ing and energetio characteristics. He wis born in this place, then a mere village, on September 9th, 1827. Ilia parents, Jesse Whitefleld and Jane Hudson Burkbead moyed with bim to Iredell county when he was but 6 years old. He went to Salisbury at the age of 24. He was married to Miss Margaret Oongbenour on May 19, 1853. To them were born ten children. Io 1855 he returned to Oonoord waere ne nas been in business ever since with a marked degree of fidelity and uprightness in every epnero in which be bas been ems ployed . HecotinfC'ed himself" with Pross pect Presbyterian cunrch in Iredell county, transferring his member ship to tbe congregation in whose bounds ha lived. He beld tbe tffioe cf deacon in the First Presbyterian chnrcb here for many year?. At the same time thafhe was a devotee to hi3 church be also was quite de voted to the institution of Masonry, lie joined the brotherhood in U60 and died tbe oldest active member of Stokes Lodge Mo. 5a. We learn that he ascended probably every round to tbe almost endless ladder of that mystic, bat, to many, very infatuating order. From bis Masonic brethren he received special care and part cf the time a hired nuree which together with attentions from tbe brotherhood of the church and kind neighborly ministration doubtless softened the pillow on which bit vitality ebbed away . The funeral will be condnoted Friday morning at 10 a. m. by bis pantor, Hey Alexander, and ti e re mains will be hid to rest in tbe city cemetery according Io the Masonic ritual fn oouneotion with those of his chnrch Wc join the entire community In ascribing just honors to the deceased and in extending sympathy and condolence to Mrs. Bnrkhead and Mhb Annie, the only members of the once large family now known to be living Daily of 20. b.

At the appointed hour the groom, leaning upon the arm cf bis fnendf Mr. ILi.el Gray, marched into tbe beautifully deaorated parlor, fol- 'owed by bis much lovid on the arm of her bridesmaid, Mis Aunie BoBt. The attendants were Miss Pearl Brown and Mr. Obal White, the latter acting iu the place of Mr. Ar nold Shaw, who, for certain reason?, found it impossible to be on hand. Tbe beautiful and melodious strains of the wedding march were plajed by Miss Helen Foil, music leachtr in the Presbyteaian college at Charlotte,. interspersed by "Nur cissus" and "Sweetest Story Ever Told," rendering the ceremony much more effective and inspiriBg. Tbe marriage vows were solemn ized by Rev. OLT Fisher, of Eliz abeth College, after which the bride and groom stood nnder the neatly decorated arch to reueive the happy congratulations of their many friends present. Soon the different con pies repaired to the dining hall, where in abuns dance there were all things to satis fy one's taste from the most sub stantial to the j oat dainty . The bride was dressed in a most beautiful garb of white organdie over white silk with small wbite rose hue's in ber hair, and with the marriage veil overhanging. Miss Boger is one of our county's mojt lo ely, attractive and social young ladies, and comes from the most wealthy family. She bas many dear fdends in ber neighbor' h od, besides at other plaoes where she spent ber sohool days.

He has many, many friends wherever he is known, For some timt be stayed in Chan. lotte, having clerked at the Gintral Hot!, and endeared himself to many people . As m mentoesof their love and admiration for this lovely pair, many beautiful and appropriate presents were given them.

To day he informed your correepon dent that he could not report any such speech as Mr. Caldwell made, for "betook back about everything he did say." It is said tbat Mr. Kluttz just plays pith his oppo nent as a cat with a mouse.

But when you put a check-rein on a Populist, he ia a pitiaole spectacle.
