There is no more beautiful sight on earth than a devoted husband and wife who have traveled together for half a century, and now in the evening of life, the center of devoted children and friends, wait their transfer to the other life. They may say one to the other: We clamb the hill thegither, And mony a canty day, John, We've had wi' ane anither; Now we maun totter down, John, But hand in hand we'll go, And sleep thegither at the foot, John Anderson, my jo! A host of friends will wish the old people many more years of comfort and joy. The following relatives of the venerable couple and old Brownsville people were present: Mr. and Mrs. F. D. Mills, Governor Martin, wife and daughters, Mr. and Mrs. H. T. Smith, Mr. and Mrs. Alf. H. Martin, Mr. and Mrs. W. C. Martin and daughter, Miss Isabel Crawford, Mr. and Mrs. E. K.
