Obituary
Little Tommie E. CHILDERS, son of F. C. and Ada CHILDERS, was
born June 23, 1899. After long and most patient suffering the
Lord of All saw fit to send angles to hover around the little 
couch, embrace Tommie in death and hear the mortal soul to God
who gave it, on the night of April 6, 1904, just three months 
after the death of his father. Tommie leaves his broken hearted 
mother and one little brother with but one consolation to meet
Tommie at the feet of Jesus.            J. C. SULLIVAN. 

Gone But Not Forgotten
Sister M. E. PHARES, of Gleason, was born in Avoyella Parish,
La., in the year 1846, and was the daughter of Dr. P. W.
CALLAHAM. She was married to Jno. E. PHARES.  Most of her life
was spent in her native state until the death of her husband,
some fourteen years ago, when she came to this state and located
in Gleason. She was for years a member of the M. E. church, but 
four years ago, confessed Christ and was baptized, uniting with
the christian church. She was for years a close student of the 
Bible and became convinced of its teachings after much prayerful 
consideration. During the last few years her suffering was very
great but no oneever heard a murmur; she bore every afflication
with such christian resignation that few were aware of her real 
sufferings. To husband, family, and friends she was a comfort
and joy. She leaves a family of six sorrowing children as well
as a host of friends. 

A Good Man Gone
J. M. ALDERDICE, a successful farmer of No. 1 of this county, 
passed away March 7, 1904 at his home, about one and one half
miles west of Boydsville. He was born in Rockingham county, N. C.
on July 23, 1830, and moved to Weakley county February 13, 1833,
and lived in No. 1 of this county until his demise. He joined 
the confederate army December 19, 1861, and served until the 
close of the civil war, serving under General Forrest in Captain
McCutcheon�s company from Dresden. He was united in marriage to
Bettie MIGE October 19, 1861, and she survives him. They lived a
peaceful and happy life together. He left four children, three
girls and one boy. He professed religion and joined the M. E.
church South August 14, 1893. He joined the Masonic order in 
1867. He was a devout christian, a prominent Mason, a most 
gallant and chivalrous confederate soldier and an excellent 
citizen. We, the writers of this article, extend to the family
and neighbors our heartfelt sympathy in their bereavement. 
   This April 11, 1904. W. A. THOMPSON, J. A. COVINGTON

Last week I received a letter from Tom MITCHELL, Caliente, Nev.
        He is at work for the San Pedro, Los Angeles & Salt Lake   railroad
company, putting up pumps and water tanks.
Saturday, I was told by J. T. COCHRAN that his brother, Arthur,
        had been shot by an unknown party  on Thursday night. It
        came about while Arthur and another young man were 
        returning from church, at Greenfield. As they were
        walking doown the railroad they saw a man standing 
        something like forty steps away; he suddenly began 
        shooting at them; four shots were fired by him, while
        only one hit Arthur in the thigh. The bullet passed 
        nearly through his thigh, being easily removed. The wound
        is not serious, and we hope Arthur will soon be able to
        assume his store duties.

        had been in feeble health  for several years, but bore
        her afflictions without a murmur. She often said that her

Two Youthful Thugs
A daring broad daylight holdup occurred at noon Friday at Martin,
in which two boys, 14 years old, were the bandits and a negro boy
the victim. The bandits were standing at the crossing of Main
Street and the Illinois Central railroad, when a negro boy of 
about 15 years approached them. Both drew revolvers and said 
�Hands up!� They found nothing on him except a small piece 
of tocacco. The negro was released and notified the city marshal.
The boys were soon caught by the marshal and a deputy sheriff,
and on being examined, two fine pistols were found on them, but
they denied the hold-up. They were placed in the calaboose and 
gave their names as Charles LITTLETON and Harry VAUGHAN and their
home as Mill Creek, Ill. They were identified by a man who worked
for the railroad as being from Mill Creek, Ill., and stated that
their mothers were widows and could not control them. 
They were brought to Dresden Saturday afternoon on the train for
confinement in the county jail.
As Sheriff DODD was taking them off, one made a dash for liberty,
getting quite a start. The sheriff commanded him to halt, which
he failed to do, and the officier let go three times with his
pistol, but the boy did not halt. He was finally captured and
both are now in jail. They will sojourn with Sheriff DODDS until
the next August court.
