He earned an excellent salary —enough to keep his wife and daughters provided with luxuries they craved and allow them to entertain in a style in keeping with that of some of their wealthier friends —but he gave them a certain allowance for household expenses and clothing and never a cent more. He was ever'a kind and loving father and husband, but was firm in this one thing, he never gave a cent more than the allowance. What he did with the remainder of his money. no one knew. “Lost it in speculation, possibly gambled,” whispered some of the doubting friends. He didn’t -spend it for his own comfort, for he neither drank or used tobacco; he was not extravagant in dress, in fact the family were always hinting that he was positively shabby. As the older children reached the age that they wanted to enter society and entertain, they grew impatient and fretful when he would not add to their allowance, They said he was parsimoniotis and selfish and did not greet him on his return from business with the loving kiss they had béen-wont to‘do. It hurt him, but he bore it uncomplainingly. They even told friends confidentially that he was too stingy to give them enough to live on, and they in turn told their particular friends ‘how cruel this man, who had once been a prince of good fellows, was to his family. He was never seen at a place of amusement, and he had grown gray-headed and stoop-shouldered. He was ill a long time and needed rest, but would not give up. He seemed to have drifted out of the family circle. While they were making merry among themselves or with friends he was sitting silently before the fire in his own room with a newspaper until the house became quiet ‘so he could rest. His brother workers brought him home from his office ill, one day, but he explained that it was only a fainting spell and the alarmed household calmed down and went on with their preparation for an entertainment that evening. The next moruing he was worse and the family physician. was called in. “You have called me too late,” he said, and informed the dying man if he had any business affairs to attend to he had better not postpone it. The weary man smiled as if he was glad he was so near the end of life’s journey. A lawyer was hastily summoned and was closeted with him for some time, but he did not reveal the dying man’s secret. All through the long hours of the night the family watched beside the unconscious man ‘until the first streaks of dawn heralded the advent of a new day. Then for a moment he rallied, and smiled upon the conscience-stricken group who, too late, remembered what a good father he had been to them, and recalled the fact that he had never spoken an unkind word to them in his life. There was only a moment of recognition and then he had passed beyond the heartaches and disappointments that he had borne so uncomplainingly and silently. Fone Oye + tO : ve 12 1-2c Per Week “What will the family do now?” said the wise sages who invariably gather at such a time to whisper words ofcondolence to the mourners and map out their future, and endeavor to find out what the family has tolive on. Nearly everyone knew he had made money, had beén almost miserly with his family, and yet had not, as far as was known saved a dollar. Even the family shuddered at’ the bleak outlook for the future. The man who was taking his first and last long rest in the narrow bed prepared for him had been charitable to some extent, but he took no chances and always enquired into the merits of the case before he contributed. “What a spendthrift he must have been,” said Mrs. Busybody as she hurried from room to room, making herself so conspicuous, as was, her custom, that she had been named the “professional mburner” by many of her acquaintances, “One thing is certain, the family can never live in the same style they have been used to,” said Mrs. Busybody with a sigh. “Poor things, never been brought up to turn their hands to anything. I’m sure I don’t know what is going to become of them.” The doleful words of lamentation ceased and the joyful news went winging on its way when the truth was made known. He was no miser, no spendthrift, but a provider for his family. He had two or three pieces of property that would bring a small amount per month and might in time become valuable, and he had twenty-thousand ‘dollars life insurance for his family, which insured them from being in any great need if it was rightly managed. His family ‘had been in his mind day and night, and he was determined to provide for them in the event of /his being taken away. Every dollar outside of their monthly allowance for family expemses had gone to keep up his life insurance, How easy it is to misjudge’ people, -and how frequently we do this very thing. It is better far to give the accused the benefit of the doubt, and let someone else do the censuring.

At 6 o’clock this morning the already large and growing list of pioneer residente of this county who have obeyed the call that all must answer, was augmented by the death of that sturdy old. millwright and farmer, Jay Parsons, whoee ethereal soul. crossed the Great Divide at the hour above stated at hie farm residence on the other side of Banner Mountain, about five miles distant in an easterly direction. Aw was his wont, the aged gertleman awoke early and after remaining awake awhile concluded to ariee, and was in a sitting posture when he was suddenly seized with a violent choking spell, and clutching wildiy at his throat fell backward upon bié couch a“corpee: Heart disease, superinduced by the suffocating and fearful exertion which -he was subjected to, was the immediate cause of death. Most of the members‘ of hie family were at home and endeavored to hold in check the spark of life thatanimated the venerable frame, but in vain, for no earthly power could stay the heavy and relentiess hand of the inevitable. ay Pareons was an Easterner by bifth, where le attended school and wto manhood estate. It was there ‘hi¢ was taught the draughtman’s pro fession, and later becoming a proficient millwright. At the age of 25 years, with a azelf-sustaining trade to tide bim_ along, he emigrated to California, the land of milk and honey to those who were thrifty and enterprising, an inherited tendency ever dominant with men.of his destiny, “Arriving here in 1868 he set to work and prospered to a moderate degree, : A few years after seutling here he wooed, won and wedded Miss Olive Miller, sister of the late N. O. Miller of Fiench Corral, and who a number of years ago was one of the most popuwe ase instractors of the young here at the public schoole have ever had. Ever since marrying Mr. Parsons resided here, working at his trade until about 12 years ago, when he, with his family, of whom he was now the hondred head and a provident and munificent caretaker, removed to a ranch in the vicinity of Banner Mountain, where he has since been engaged in the raising of fruit and farming on a small ecale and living a retired life. His was of a. quiet unassuming demesnor; one who was unostentatious in his mode of living, and a man whom: naught bat good could be spoken of, Loving and kind to his family and solicitous as to their every want, bis sudden taking off will create a void that only those who have been similarly afflicted can fathom, and who realizing a worthy busband and father’s worth, will extend from the depths of their utmost hearts their sincerest sympathy at the loss this family has sustained. Deceased was a native of Hartford, Ohio, aged 75 years, 9 months and 3 days. Besides a wife are left bereaved three children—two sons, Walter E.and Mill W. Parsons of Banner Mountain. and one daughter, Mrs. W E. Waldron of Graniteville, The faneral will take place Monday, but where bas not as: yet been definitely decided upon. “ns oe Will Start al 3:45.

At 6 o’clock this morning the already large and growing list of pioneer residente of this county who have obeyed the call that all must answer, was augmented by the death of that sturdy old. millwright and farmer, Jay Parsons, whoee ethereal soul. crossed the Great Divide at the hour above stated at hie farm residence on the other side of Banner Mountain, about five miles distant in an easterly direction. Aw was his wont, the aged gertleman awoke early and after remaining awake awhile concluded to ariee, and was in a sitting posture when he was suddenly seized with a violent choking spell, and clutching wildiy at his throat fell backward upon bié couch a“corpee: Heart disease, superinduced by the suffocating and fearful exertion which -he was subjected to, was the immediate cause of death. Most of the members‘ of hie family were at home and endeavored to hold in check the spark of life thatanimated the venerable frame, but in vain, for no earthly power could stay the heavy and relentiess hand of the inevitable. ay Pareons was an Easterner by bifth, where le attended school and wto manhood estate. It was there ‘hi¢ was taught the draughtman’s pro fession, and later becoming a proficient millwright. At the age of 25 years, with a azelf-sustaining trade to tide bim_ along, he emigrated to California, the land of milk and honey to those who were thrifty and enterprising, an inherited tendency ever dominant with men.of his destiny, “Arriving here in 1868 he set to work and prospered to a moderate degree, : A few years after seutling here he wooed, won and wedded Miss Olive Miller, sister of the late N. O. Miller of Fiench Corral, and who a number of years ago was one of the most popuwe ase instractors of the young here at the public schoole have ever had. Ever since marrying Mr. Parsons resided here, working at his trade until about 12 years ago, when he, with his family, of whom he was now the hondred head and a provident and munificent caretaker, removed to a ranch in the vicinity of Banner Mountain, where he has since been engaged in the raising of fruit and farming on a small ecale and living a retired life. His was of a. quiet unassuming demesnor; one who was unostentatious in his mode of living, and a man whom: naught bat good could be spoken of, Loving and kind to his family and solicitous as to their every want, bis sudden taking off will create a void that only those who have been similarly afflicted can fathom, and who realizing a worthy busband and father’s worth, will extend from the depths of their utmost hearts their sincerest sympathy at the loss this family has sustained. Deceased was a native of Hartford, Ohio, aged 75 years, 9 months and 3 days. Besides a wife are left bereaved three children—two sons, Walter E.and Mill W. Parsons of Banner Mountain. and one daughter, Mrs. W E. Waldron of Graniteville, The faneral will take place Monday, but where bas not as: yet been definitely decided upon. “ns oe Will Start al 3:45.
