Funeral Services were conducted at the home of the deceased, Friday July 11th at 2 p. m. After which a very large procession of sympathising friends followed the remains to the Osborne Cemetery for interment. The deceased was an excellent young man, one who enjoyed the respect, confidence and esteem of large circle of friends. Although his affliction was about one year, he boitrtT" pfttfffliitty, and in his last days, said he was willing to depart, having no fear, passing away peaceably as if his mind was at rest, lie enjoyed reading the -Bible, and when his strength would not premit him to read, he would ask his friends to read for him; and while the friends of the deceased have the sympathy of the entire community, there is a consoling thought that we mourn for him, but not as those hav-
ing no hope.
