The deceased had been recently married and her death was caused from a severe spell of fever. The funeral took place from the resi- dence of the parents of deceased, Saturday evening at 3 o'clock, and the large procession which followed the remains to their last rest place in Oak Hill cemetery, fully attested the sympathy of our people for the bereaved family and the high regard in which the deceased was held.

A Brave Act. The Island Bridge across the Marias | des Cygnes south of Nyhart, is one of the finest bridges in the county, | and if we are not mistaken, cost be- tween nine aud ten thousand dollars. On Sunday,tbree weeks ago to-mor- row, during the unusualy high water for thia time of the year, a great tree came down with the drift and one of its large brauches ran | through the open work of the bridge over the road way. The water was in three or four feet of the bridge | | and the deadwood or drift eollected | above the bridge so rapidly that in an hour or two it extended up the river a couple of hundred yards, | and from shore to shore. By this | time a half dozen neighbors living | in the locality had congregated at | the bridge, and while all recognized | that the structure would soon break | or be carried off its abutments, no one was willing to risk his life by | going out on the bridge and cutting | away the large limb which was do- | ing the damage. The bridge was sprung out of line full two feet by! the immense pressure from the drift Finally White Deaton grasped an ax went out on the trembling structure and with a few well directed blows cut off the limb. The bridge sprang back to its normal condition and the great body of Hood wood passed down theriver. Mr. Deaton certain ly took his life in his hands, as had the bridge gone down no human power could have saved him from immediate death as amid the ruins of the bridge and the drift wood he | would have been sunk in a watery grave. We learn that neighbors of Mr. D. will ask the county court to make suitable acknowledgement of this brave act, by issuing a warrant for fifty dollars. We hope that the court will do so as it is evident that | the act of Mr. Deaton saved bridge. | And again it is proper that one who | risks his life for the benefit of others should be suitably rewarded- The above is taken from the Rec-| ord and the Trwes fully concurs in| the suggestion that the county court | would be doing the proper thing by remunerating Mr. Deaton for | saving this handsome and costly | structure and the act of presenting | him with a fifty dollar bill would be | fully endorsed by the tax payers. | Awardec i Highest Honors—Wor!i’= ‘ait. ! & | pointed by the University curators; | O.
