—Highly Esteemed by
Everybody.
Mt. Sylvan, Tex., Feb. 14— On the
4tlh day of the month death claimed j
a its victim, Mr. J. L. McMillan, ono
of the oldest citizens oí Smith conn- ¡
ty. Grandpa McMillan would have
been 96 years oM in April next. He,
had been a citizen of .Smith county |
tiwenjty-scven years and had lesided
In Mt. Sylvan all the while. He had
been a very active member oí tho'
church for over fifty years and death'
seemed to Have no horrore for Mm.
Ho waa hearty and enjoyed fair
health up until just a few days be-
fore his death, when he took sick
with bronchial pneumonia and lived
about ten days.
He contemplated that according to
nature he maut soon crasa over to
the other side and seemed to possess
a longing for that peace and freedom
which i 4 only to be found when the
ills of life are left behind.
"Oh, Gentle Death I Dread The Not."
"This journey brief which we call life
Keiplete with sorrows, pains and
tears,
Is buit the threshold oí our home,
The storms of life, the doulbts, the
fears,
We leave behind when gentle death
Invitee us in, no more to roam.
Yes, gentle death, he ope's the door
To wecome us to realms of peace,
No relic of (he world's sad woes
May 'Miter there, when heart beats
ceast,
And eyelids clase in dreamless slee:>,
Wo leave behind revenare and foes.
Why, weep; why grieve; why vain
regrets?
The dead have only gone before
To higher, better, joysume life,
Arid soon weT. follow thru the door,
To gladly clasp thine friendly hands,
Old loves renew without the strife.
Oh, gentle death, I dread thee not,
When I have done my mission here,
Come; take my hand and lead me
thru
The shadows, no cause have I to fear
Thy kindly touch, I'll welcome thee;
God wills it thus; His words are
true."
Rev. Wayne Coltharp is moving
into our village today.
Mlaf Emma Nowlin and her aiged
mother, were visitors in Mit. Sylvan
Sunday.
Yes. old Mt Sylvan is proud to say
that everything connected with her
future is up against the wheel oí
progress with a push and pull and
by the eternals it is having its ef-
fect . Improvements on every hand;
new people coming in and a general
good spirit existing among out peo-
ple. and if our Bullard colleague will
only come this way we can show him
better than we can tell htaa, and
please allow me to suggest that he
possess no fears about being pushed
over into Cherokee county, but that
he so beautify old Bullard and that
part of Smith county that people
from Cherokee will come to Bullard
and Smith county to find homes.
So here is my hand for the road
tax and every other thing that will
(build, up Smith county.

Do You Want to Buy
*#ivh/ •. v ' / \ a v i • ^
Surrey Hack or Harness?
If so, then let the smooth talking traveling agents alone, their guarantee
is worth nothing. You buy from one and you never see him again, as
another agent or collector collects, or he sells your notes if your credit is
good, and you have to pay them whether you are pleased with your vehi-
cle or not. Buy from a reliable house like Brown & McFarland in Tyler;
they sell the best buggies, surreys, hacks and harness and guarantee to
save you $10.00 to $25.00 on a vehicle.
We buy direct from the factory in enormous quantities and pay cash for
every buggy we buy, which enables us to sell cheaper. Besides, we have
50 different styles to select from embracing all the new 1910 styles.
•
Then why not buy of us, our buggies are better, and cheaper, our styles
are newer and our guarantee is better, and we are your home people who
help pay the taxes and assist in every way to build up this country and
then if anything goes wrong with what you buy of us, you can find us
and we are always ready to make it good, in other words, our guarantee
is worth something. We sell for cash or easy payments We invite you
to come and see us before you buy, no one can give you as good a trade
as we can.
