Death tt John H. Secrest.
Mr. John H. Seerest. mavur
Waxhaw, died of pnenmonia last
Wednesday night, after just one
week's illness. Though but a young
man ZS years of age, Mr. Secrest
was pretty well known over the
county by reason of the fact that he
was a candidate year before last for
the office of register of deeds, 1 1 is
untimely takiug off will be a source
of general regret, as he was a youug
man of fine character, pleatting ad
dresa.aud bad a great mauy frieuds.
Physically he was tall aud band
some, and apparently destined to
live to good old age. He was tbe
youngest son of Mr. Milas A. Se
crest of Waxbaw, and between lit
ther and sol there was an unusually
strong attaebmeut The young uiau
has always stood well among those
who knew him. As a testimony of
mis fact oe was la May elected
ma or of bis town. He wss an ac
tive and loyal member of the Pres
byterian church. Ten days before
bis death no young man in the
county would be accounted more
fortunate, or more possessed of
brighter prospects in life. But,
verily, iu life are we in the midst
of death and no man knows whom
tbe grim reaper will next claim for
bis own.
Mr. Secrest was an ambitious and
energetic young man. He bad
spent a good deal of time in school
preparing himself for life's battles.
And it is a poiut in his favor tbst,
though he little knew that his first
great and ouly battle was to be with
Death, be was not unprepared for
it. it is well witb the young niau,

Methodist Church Debt Paid.
The congregation of Central Meth
odist church are happy. At the
Sunday night service, Dr. Itowe, the
pastor, held up the f7,(XX) note
whit'h had been evidence of the
church debt, and stated that it had
been redeemed by Ihij fuJJ payment
of tlifl atnoupt in cab, and thai he
would keep the old paper, now made
worthless by tearing off the signers,
as a souvenir. This completes every
cent of the expense of building the
handsome new church, which ap
proximates $20,000. The last note
of $7,000 was liquidated by one
week's effort. The gift of one citi
zen of Monroe made it possible he
started the subscription with $2,500.
Two others gave $800, two others
$500. The other amount ranged
on down as low as one dollar. The
congregation is how ready to dedi
cate their diurch' whenever they see
fit Their effort has probably not
been surpassed by any conerccalion
of their Church in the State.

In Memory of a Friend.
When we look npon oue who bas
climbed the rugged hills of life aud
is far down on tbe other side, we
mow tnat the tourney is not lone,
aud we live in tbe expectancy of
bis aeatn. But wneu there is a sud
den departure from a life full of
energy, of beauty aud of joy, radi
eut with hope, sweet witb kiuduess
aud love, tbe shadow comes over
us like some miduiubt darkness.
and (he fountain of light aud even
tue stars seem to be forever ob
scured. Such a cloud has so over
shadowed us in the death of our
beloved brother, John H. Secrest,
who, on December 31st, was called
to render bis eccomit nnto that
being whom the sun, moon and
stars obey, who judgetb the world
n righteousness aud His people iu
love, rewarding us socoidiug to
our merit. His was a life of that
higher kiud, made beautiful by a
naturally sweet ieuiper?iueiit, ex
emplified iu a lovely devotion to
home, to parents, to brothers, sis
ters, relatives and friends a life
whitl) laught rather by example
than by precept, which, yoii of
deceit, breathed ever of sincerity
and of truth. To bis many friends.
John is not dead but sleeneth.
His earthly remains are laid bo

melancholy place I ever saw. Ev
erywhere you see folks with gloomy
expressions on their faces. ' 'Too
much rabbit,' S lid a resident to me.
'But there's uo use in trying to

tertains there Isgtewed rabbit: Col.

and tbe Supreme Court dines ou

tiniony of their love aud affection

Dr. Rowe, a token of their esteem

years yet. We feel that your life
has been and will be devoted to tbe
good of man. and tbst beyond the
shores of time there will bo a re
ward far greater than tbe esteem,
or love or praise of men. I beg you
to accept this token."

THE NECESSARY MAGAZINE
IN THE PRESIDENTIAL YEAR.
The Review of Reviews Is often called a
necessity, in recognition of Its usefulness in keeping
readers "up with the times."
In Presidential election years the REVIEW
OF REVIEWS is more than ever "the necessary
magazine." Everybody wants to be truly and quickly
informed about this or that public question that hat
forged to the front ; to know about the new candi
dates and personal factors in politics, to have s com
plete picture at hand of the current movement of
history.
