PERSONAL.
On Sunday September Ki.HlHO,
at his home in liethel township,
there passed from earth one of
I'ulton county's best citizens, the
name of whom stands at the head
of this article. A little more than
sixty-throe years ago, he n'rst
saw the light of day in the house
where he spent, his life.and where
his eyes were closed for the last
time. .
)f hiie, a friend writes -
"His rdigions convictions were
of the highest type; and the pre
cepts of inspiration were, with
him, tin- rule of action in his daily
life. His faith in the Intinite; his
love of truth; these gave him a
grand courage in the battle of
life.
"Uis foundations were sure,
lie never faltered-never hesitat
ed. e met all the great respon
sibilities and trials of life, and
t riumphed - being uphold.
"His funeral was largely at
tended by his friends and neigh
bors from far and near to pay the
last tribute of respect to a man
who feared (iod, loved his fellow
man, and tried to do his duty.
His father died when David was
at- the tender age of 1 I years; and
and thns.with his widowed moth
er and throe sisters, he started
out to light the battles of life.
"nearly years he associated
with the Christian church and
lived a christian life to the day of
his death. To his family we can
truly say that he leaves them a
legacy of which they may well
feel proud that, ofan uncontaiui
nati d character. To complain at
tlu close of such a life is to com
plain, that the ripened fruit drops
from the overladen hough, that
tin-golden harvest bends to the
sickle: it is to com plain of the law
of our existance and to accuse the
Creator for not having made man
immortal on the earth. "

Mr. Crove, another boo onthu
siasti, and so m a hive was under
the tree. Mr. Crove climbed up,
and with his pocket knife, cut off
Ihe branch to which the bees
wore clinging, brought them
down, and put them in the hive
just as though boos never stung
preachers. He took them to his
home and placed the hive among
those of his own. In a short
time the strangers came out of
their new homo, and most of
them went into the hives with the
other bees. The queen cameout,
and tlew away for some time,
when she returned and alighted
on the top of the hive. She was
a nice one, and Mr. ( J rove pick
ed her up put her in a cage, and
