One of Henderson's Popular Young Business Hen Passes Away Sudden-ly-Our Community Sorely flrieved at the Sad Intelligence. When it became known on Monday that Turner Jones had passed into the Great Beyond the entire commu nity was shocked, this giving place to genuine' Borrow, as testified by every token of love and esteem it seemed possible for the town to show. Until Sunday night he appeared to be in perfect health. Taken then with a severe headache, his condition was not serious until 10 o'clock Mon day, when meningitis set in and fin ished its deadly course at twelve o'clock, in spite of all that medical skill could do. Turner was the secon'l son of Mr. and Mrs. P. T. Jones, and was ID years of age. His father and moth er, one brother, Mr. Richard .Tone?, and three sisters, Misses Louise, Mabel and Rettie C. JoneP. are left to mourn his death. He was a young man of genuine goodness of heart, from which sprang the uprightness, kindliness, and un selfish and intense devotion to his people so characteristic of him, and it is a reasonable hope that he has attained the crown of righteousness laid up for those who so finish a faithful course. The funeral services took place Tuesday afternoon at 4 o'clock from Holy Innocent church, uev. i. . Hughes conducting the service, and the body was laid to rest in Elm wood remetery. Rarely has Henderson witnessed such a funeral. The floral offerings were numerous and beauti ful, and the church was filled beyond its seating capacity. The pall-bearers, in the uniform of the Vance Guards, of which he was a member, wetSXall young men: Messrs. S. II. Allen, A. R. Wester, James Jenkins, Dudley Hunter. John Rose and Joel Cheatham.

Rogerson, Law rence Wall, Joe Rarnrs, John How erton, Tom Garrett. - -Epsom Items. Spring is at hand.

B, 12th N. C. Regiment, and J. n.Grissom, Co. B, 1st N. C. Regiment, were cordial ly greeted as members of the ('amp. Ibis heing the last meeting of the Camp year, Commander Hoover gave a short synopsis of the past year a events. lwo members have answered the last roll call, J. T. Jones and J. P. Hayden. The Camp, has attended services four times at different churches. Thirty war records of as many members are in the hands of the Commander to be printed in the Camp record book.
