OBITUARY

Eddie Russell, son of Wm. and Delia Andis, was born April 17, 1895, and -departed this life on the first day of July, 1913, being aged 18 years, 2 months and 14 days.

Eddie has left this sphere of action. All that was mortal has passed away all the conflicts, the temptations and trials are over

1

oh, who could wish him back, .tiddie was a good boy, a boy who lelighted to obey and please father and mother. In all our acquaintance and association with young men we have never known one who seemed more devoted to his parents their work was his work, their cares his cares, their joy his joy, their sorrow his sorrow.

During his sickness he sought to relieve them from worry by trying to appear jolly, assuring them that he was better. After leaving his bed from his first sickness, his whole thought seemed to be to help bear mother's burdens, who was still nursing father. Indeed, a family more devoted to each other would be hard to find.

IS THE TIME!

Seize the Opportunity!

Start an account with us and the victory over future responsibilities is

Eddie was converted and united with the Mt. Lebanon Methodist Protestant church in February of 1912, and baptized by the writer in July of the* same year. While Eddie did not live all that time free from condemnation, he said to his mamma only a few days ago that he had never gone clear away from the Lord only had done some few little things which he knew that the Lord and father and mother would not want him to do.

When his mother went to the barn the other day she found Eddie on his knees praying. She ask him what he was doing, and he said he was praying for papa. "Mamma, if papa would die, what would we do?" Eddie had just finished his third year in the Greenfield High School look forward to next year, his senior year, and on into the future, with the prospect of a useful life. But, alas, the great iron hand-has called a halt and all the activities of life that can perish have gone. But that which is immortal will live on and on through the cycles of eternity.

Eddie was of a family of four children, one sister older and two younger, all of which preceded him into that haven of eternal rest. He leaves to mourn their loss, father, mother, one grandfather, two grandmothers, and a host of other relatives and friends. But we believe that could he be heard to speak he would be saying: "Weep not for me, but watch and pray,

OBITUARY

It was with deep regret that we heard of the death of Thomas J. Owens, which occurred at his home in Charlottesville, on the afternoon of May 30, 1913.

Thomas J. Owens was the youngest child of Thomas and Ellen Owens, and was born in Davy county, North Carolina, 'February 2, 1840, being 73 years, 3 months and 28 days old at the time of his death.

He came to Indiana early in life, locating in Henry county, later removing to his late residence, where he lived happy, contented life for nearly 50 years. He was married to Adeline White, October 12, 1865. To this union was born one son, Charles W., who w.as taken from them at the early age of 18 years, thus depriving them of the brightest hope of their lives.

He served more than three years in the late war, being a member of the 57th Indiana Regiment, Company A. He was a member of the Masonic Order.

He united with the Christian church, under the ministry of Bro. Edmundson, early in life.

church relationship he was loyal and true, ever alive to its interests,

and active in all its departments* He was the oldest elder in the church. For many years we can remember seeing him in his place in the church, both in the old and new churches of this place. We can think of him as he rang the old church bell for all of its services, as he served as janitor as long as his health would permit.

Being a carpenter by trade, he worked with his own hands in the erection of the new Christian' church, and thus gave of his timei and means everything possible both' in a temporal and spiritual way, for the advancement of the Lord's work. No one has ever been morei faithful to the cause he loved, as nothing but sickness kept him frorri the Lord's house at the hours of worship.

He was a great lover of his home** and leaves to his devoted wife the memory of 48 years of perfect home life and companionship, and mutual understanding and mutual devotion. Ever cheerful and kind* he enjoyed helping his good wife in every way possible. He loved flowers, and spent many hours in the growing of them.

To those who knew the hospitality of this home, especially the ministers, to whom their home was ever open for any length of timei they desired to stay, and to some who have spent years in this home and have enjoyed the counsel and oversight of such a good man as Mr. Owens, it. will always be a very pleasant memory.

He always met all who came with a smile, and thus we knew him to be a true Christian character- in his home, in his church, and a good I neighbor and friend to all. I He had been in declining health' for almost a year, but through all his intense sufferings he was so patient, and bore it all in the confidence that if his departure was near that all was well.

While here on earth you be That when the toils of life are o'er We'll meet beyond death's sea."

He was prepared for tfie messenger of death, and spoke of his trust in the promises of Him who said: "Let not your heart be troubled,", for as his own selection of the text records, he "had fought a good fight, had kept the faith henceforth there is laid up for him a crown of righteousness."

He was the last of a large family to answer death's call. He leaves nieces and nephews, together with a host of friends and neighbors, who gathered at the Christian church in Charlottesville, where

the funeral services were held, conducted by Bro. Gus Thompson, to pay a tribute of love and respect to an honest, upright man, and to open the floodgates of *ympathy that it may encompass and ev.foid the heart of her who is left to mourn. I The remains were laid to rest in the Glen Gove cemetery at Knightstown. (Advertisement)

Another White-Tailed Squirrel. Some time ago, while walking on his father's farm south of town, Phil Bruner saw a peculiar-looking squirrel. It was like the ordinary fox squirrel, except that there was a white stripe on its tail. With much patience he has watched for it to appear again, now that the season is open, and yesterday he was rewarded, and bagged the game. This is the second squirrel of this kind killed in this vicinity, and it is said that there has been another one see farther south in this county.

Mrs. Russell Handy, son. Robert, and Miss Mary Cole, of Morristown, were guests of Minos Handy and wife Mondny.
