August 10, 1855, he was united in marriage to Rebecca J. Stonebraker. To them were born ten children, five of whom have preceded him to the great unknown. For honesty, uprightness and nobility his life was unexcelled. He bore his last sickness with much patience, although at times his sufferings were almost unbearable. He leaves a wife and five children, two sons and three daughters to mourn the irreparable loss of a devoted husband and an affectionate father also one brother and four sisters survive him. The funeral services were conducted at the M. E. church, Thursday afternoon by Rev. J. Shagley. A large concourse of friends followed the remains to their last resting place.

There are 7,000 saloons in the State, and their 7,000 owners will combine in a vigorous fight against the proposed measure.

CRAWFORDSVILLE, INDIANA, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 1894.-TWELVE PAGES

ANDREW M'CORMICK.

One of Wavelaml's Oldest and tteat Citizens l'asses Beyond the Mystic Veil.

Mr. Anurew McCormick, one of the most highly esteemed citizens of Waveland, passed away Saturday night, October 20, at the extreme age of 84 years, 11 months and 9 days. Mr. McCormick was born in Shelby county, Kentucky, Noy. 12, 1800.

He moved to Montgomery county, Indiana, in 1828, where he has since resided. He joined the Methodist Episcopal church when a young man and for about seventy years was a faithful and prominent member of the same. In 1842 he married Miss Martha Green, with whom he lived most happily and who proceeded him in death ten years. Mr. McCormick was a man most highly honored by all who knew him and was recognized by his neighbors as a man of the highest Christian integrity and noble manhood. The following paper, read at his funeral by Mr. A. J. Wolfe, as an expression of the sentiment of the M. E. church, of Waveland, is a fitting tribute to his memory:

It is fitting, my friends, as we come to pay the last tribute of respect to our deceased brother, Andrew McCormick, (as we all know him) was an honored member, should say something of his life, his helpfulness, his influence, his worth in the community in which he lived. As we knew him we can truly say his life has not been in vain.

One has truthfully said, "that when the record of human life is made up, it ought to present the happy combination of saving accomplished the promotion of the general good, and at the same time have won to the individual great personal achievements. Such a life is even and well balanced.

Its completeness challenges the just admiration of all observers, and its influence is a blessing and a benediction. Like an unbroken and polished column, standing alone amidst the rubbish and broken fragments of the ruins of a great city. So is such a life amidst the wasted and worthless lives on every side. The true destiny and duty of every human being is to strive for such a life, to make such an enviable reputation,''

Our brother, our friend, our benefactor, has made such a refutation. He was a man among men. A gentleman of the old school of splendid character, good personal presence, dignified bearing-! noble sentiments and warm affections. He was the very soul of honor, and during lifs long and quiet life of more than four score years, he was never charged with or even suspected of any unmanly or dishonorable conduct. He thoroughly hated and despised falsehood and pretense, and regardless of personal consequences never hesitated to so declare himself upon all occasions that seem to demand it.

He was a man to tie to under all circumstances. He was kind hearted and affectionate, a friend of the warmest attachment. He best shone, in kind acts and generous deeds. Carryingout the scripture injunction, "it is more blessed to give than to receive." He was ever solicitous of the public welfare as he understood its needs, ready with his influence, his talent, his energy, his money. All of which were far above tlie average for every good word and work. A public spirited citizen in the fullest and best sense of that term.

He was a man of large heart and generous spirit, ever ready to listen to the story of a petitioner or to lend the helping hand to any worthy man of his acquaintance. He was truly a friend to the poor. Imbued with the spirit of his Lord and Master and being full of the Holy Ghost lie was ever ready to do the things which his hands found to do in the vineyard of the Lord. Believing in the promise that in doing them there is great reward. He was ever mindful of his duty ai.d obligation to the church, ready to respond liberally to all demands made upon him. So great was his love for the church and its prosperity that he, like Brother Thomas Hanna, who preceeded him to the spirit world, provided means by which the income is to be used in paying his church benevolence f01 ever. By these acts of love they testify to us though being dead yet they speaketh. These generous gifts, coming as they do at the close of each conference year have been a solace and comfort to the discouraged stewards as they have tried to meet all tlie obligations of the church.

When these walls which'tlie'ir hands have done so much to erect have crumbled and fallen down, when congregation after congregation have passed away. These acts of love and kindness of these two sainted men will shine on and on as the stars forever and forever. "Blessed are the dead that die in the Lord from henceforth yea, saith the spirit, that they niay rest from their labors and their works do follow them."

PART FIRST

A YOUNG MAN'S SUICIDE.

Henry Thompson Emls Ills Short Life With a 1'intol Kail—Tlie Deed Committed nt the Home of Ilis Father.

Henry Thompson killed himself Saturday afternoon at 4 o'clock with a revolver. The deed occurred at the home of his father, James Thompson, two miles northwest of Yountsville. lie lived until 10 o'clock Saturday night. Mr. Thompson was raised on the farm where he ended his life, but some time ago went to Lafayette, where he was employod by the street car company. Four weeks ago lie came home. He was despondent and the shooting was not entirely unexpected. On Saturday morning his mother noticed him cleaning his revolver and decided to keep a close watch on him. Shortly before 4 o'clock a neighbor, Dick Hoppingcaine in and in the presence of Mr. and Mrs. Thompson playfully talked with Henry about an accident that had occurred to one of his horses. All joined in the laugh that followed except Henry. He looked very serious, said nothing and a moment later stepped out into the yard. Returning to the front hall he placed the pistol directly in the middle of his forehead and fired. His parents were in the next room but did not of course see him until it was too late to stay his hand. He was conscious for two hours and part of the time was rational. In reply to questions he informed his parents that he had shot himself intentionally.

DULY INSTALLED,

ltev. K. H. Thomson llecoiuea the Regular l'astor of the First l'resbyterlun Church,

The First Presbyterian church was crowded Sunday night to witness the installation of Rev. Everet B. Thomson as pastor of the church. There was some fine special music for the occasion and Dr. Tuttle presided in his usual happy manner. Dr. G. S. Burroughs preached a fine sermon settingforth the relation of tlie pastor to the people while Dr.Cunningham delivered the charges. Mr. Thomson begins his pastorate after several months' service in the church during which time he has greatly endeared himself to the congregation. It is not to be doubted but that these friendly relations will be continued and great good accomplished in the city and church.

Two ISxcollent Sermous.

Rev. C. M. Carter, pastor of the First Baptist church of Lafayette, occupied the pulpit of the Baptist church in this city Sunday. Mr. Carter is one of the leading Baptist divines in Indiana. He delivered two excellent addresses Sunday to large and appreciative audiences. Mr. Carter is a plain, practical, highly cultured gentleman, well and favorably known throughout the State, and was for several years editor of tlie Indiana Baptist, the State organ of the denomination. We hope he may again visit our city.

Watson Will Beat Holman.

We reproduce below a letter received last Saturday from Hon. James A. Mount who is now speaking in Hoiman's district. It reads as follows:

VKKSAILLKS, Ind., Oct. 20.—I would be pleased to have you save for me two or three dozen of the souvenir editi°n of THE JOURNAL. AS soon as I am out of the campnign will call and settle with you. Indications point to Watson's success. This, Ripley county, will go Republican. Changes by the score have taken place in this part of the State. Democrats are disgusted wiuh the party incompetency ana its broken pledges. Very Truly,

J. A. MOUNT.

Ml". \Vymk»»| One of Us. Some Democrats in the north part of he county are circulating the report that II. E. Wynekoop, Republican candidate for Surveyor, docs not intend to make his home here unless elected. This is untrue and calculated to harm Mr. Wynekoop in his canvass if believed. He has been a resident of the county for several years, has always voted here and spent his summers here as well as the rest of the year while he was in college.
