PEACEFULLY PASSED AWAY.
James Oibson Died Friday Evening Aged
Eighty-five Years.
At n.4l) P. M., December 14th, James
Gibson, father of V. C. Gibson, died at
his homo In this plaeo. Mr. Gibson has
lived In Reynoldsville for twelve years.
Ho was feeble when ho moved here and
consequently was not often seen upon
our streets. The deceased was born In
what was then Armstrong county, near
Reldsburg, but which has slnne been
formed Into Clarion county, in 1800,
which mado him 85 years, 8 months and
18 days old, as wo reckon time, when ho
passed Into tho Glory World. On tho
last day of March, 1842, ho was united
In marriage to Eveline Meridoth,
daughter of Owen Meridoth. To them
three children wero born, Dr. W. M. B.
Gibson, C. C. Gibson and Emma. Tho
daughter, who only lived six years, died
In IWI4, and Doctor Gllmon, who practic
ed In this town for a number of years,
died seven years ago. James Gibson
was Imrh and reared on a farm. In IWI4
ho moved Into Roldsburg, Clarion coun
ty, where ho resided until ho moved to
Reynoldsvlllo in 18H2. Ho served as
Justloo of tho Pence In Monroo town
ship, Clarion county, ten years, and was
postmaster at Reldsburg four years.
His widow and son, C. C, two brothers,
John Gibson, of South Oil City, nnd
Lowory Gibson, of Reldsburg, and ono
sister, Mary Ann Johnston, of Clarion
county, survive him. Mrs. C. Mitchell,
whoso maiden name was Cora Wallace,
was loft motherless when eighteen
months old and this couple took her to
their hearts and home nnd she was look
ed iiHin us one of tho family.
The deceased joined the Presbyterian
church forty-llvo years ngo and has
since been a consistent meinlwr. His
body seemed to bo worn out and his life
ended ns a result of old age; ho quietly
and Haeefully passed away without any
pain. Ho told those who were watch
ing at his bedside us the Messenger of
Death hovered o'er him that he was in
sight of the heavenly land. He snid
bo thought they should all rejoleo be
cause he was so near homo. The old
man was ready, and gladly responded
to the summons to pass over.
Funeral services woro held at his lata
residence Sunday iifternoon conducted
by Rev. II. R. Johnson, pastor of tho
'resbyterlnn church, and tho mortal re
mains of James Gibson wero placed bo
neuth tho sod of Beulah cemetery to
await tho resurrection morning.
"White Washing Don Here."
Down ut Reynoldsvlllo there Is a man
who does whitewashing, and as ho has
lived in that town for some time, ho has
inherited that general feeling among
tho merchants of the town to do as little
advertising us possible, and to do It as
cheap as he can, regardless of quality.
no puintcu Himself a iittio sign and
hung It in front of his residence. It
read: "Whitewashun Don Hero." A
neighbor happened to pass a little while
after ho had put his sign up, and walk
ed up to tho whitewash artist and snid:
"You don t oxpoct pcoplo to bring their
whitewashing hero to have it done, do
you.'" "Well," said the artist, "how
would you put it?" Falls Creek Jleraul.
Wo havo not seen tho "Whitewashim
Don Hero," sign In Reynoldsvlllo, but
we do know that, with a fow exceptions,
tho Reynoldsvlllo merchants "do as lit
tle advertising as possible." It may bo
a broad assertion, yet we honestly be
lieve that Reynoldsvlllo would be a
better town to-day than it now is if all
the merchants would use printers ink
more liberally. By looking ovor our
Brookvlllo, Fulls Crook, Dubois, Punx
sutawney, Brockwayvlllo, and many
othor nowspapor exchanges, we see that
the merchants, bankers, doctors, law
yers, hotel mon, &o., believe it pays to
advertise, at least they do it. The
Star has a large circulation in the sur
rounding community, and also reaches
the outside world, and as a prayer-meet
ing Is the "pulse of a church," so also
tho advertising columns of a newspaper
indicates whethor the merchants of tho
town are alive to tholr best interests.
If you want the people in the surround
ing community to eome to town you
must let them know through the papers
that you keep just what they want.
Many of our furmers take three or four
papers, and they, like all the rest of the
human family, are looking for bar
gains, and If thoy don't see any induce
ment In The Star to come to Rcyn
oldsvlllo, but see a bargain offered in
ono of tho othor newspapers by some
live morchant at Brookvlllo, Dubois or
Punxsutawney, why that is where thoy
will go. As we said in the beginning
of this article, we have a fow business
men who believe in advertising, but wo
have too many, for the town's good, who
don't take much stock In newspapers.
It It pays tho merchants of other towns
to advortise, why in the name of Mar
maduke Hindorlightenfelter will it not
pay Reynoldsville merchants? While
making your resolutions for 1895, re
solve that you will try a little judicious
advertising in your home papers during
1805 and see if you will not find a large
return for the money invested before
1896 is ushered in. We don't believe it
is wise to run an advertisement too long
without changing it. This article la
not written merely in the interest of
Thb Star, but we believe the adver
tiser, the town and Thk Star would all
profit by it if the merchants would do
their duty.
