Beginning in early manhood with no means to sp.ik of, by untiring energy and industry, he succeed well in life, providing well for his household and acquiring considerable property in the meantime. Upright and honest, kind and liberal hearted, he was always ready to lend a helping hand to those in need. Always looking on the bright side of life, with his genial smile and cheey disposition, he won friends wherever he went or was known. Though full of life and fun from his earliest childhood, he always stood up for the right. A jolly and generous playmate, a noble hearted and true friend always. Though never having joined any denomination, he was always ready to aid any good cause, and in his kind and generous way, lived a better and nobler life than many in the pales of the church. Cut down in the prime of life when he had much to live for. He met his fate (as he had always lived) uncomplaining and unafraid. He leaves to mourn his loss a wife, two children, his aged parents, one biother and sister, and a host of relatives and friends, who will ever miss his cheery smile and hearty greeting till we meet him in the Great beyond where partings will be no more.

Rev. Joshua Buckley * ; Tuesday, April 23,1901, this! venerable and widely known; citizen of our County died at' i he home of his son, John, near Buckeye, in the 92nd year of his age. The infirmities of age so advanced, aggravated by influenza are the apparent reasons for his decease. Mr. Buckley is a lineal descendant of Joshua Buckley, the pioneer of Buckeye, coming there from the lower valley previously to the Revolution between 1770-75. For more than fifty years Rev. Joshua Buckley was a preacher in the pale of the M. E. church and a staunch promoter of the same, having been among the original members of the Pocahontas branch of that worthy denomination. He has probably officiated at as many if not more marriages than any minister that ever lived in our County. The sincerity of his piety was never questioned, his honesty above suspicion, and his sense of honor very elevated, for he would do what he deemed right at the peril of his life. John Buckley, Jr., of Buckeye, Mrs. Asa McNeill and Mrs. Ulysses McNeill, of Sut'on, Mrs. William McNeill and Mrs. Joseph Adkison, of Upper Swago, Rev. Mrs. Boggs of the M. P. Church, Mrs. Lum Silva and Mrs. Thomas, of Buckeye, are his living children "Mark the perfect man and behold the upright, for the end of that man is peace." The writer honors his memory as an esteemed personal acquaintance and Christian brother for more than fifty years. W. T. Price (This is a reprint for Mrs. Edna McNeil Kellison of Den-

She had been in failing health for sometime and had been confined to her bed since Christmas. She was a patient sufferer during her long illness and everything that medical skill, kind hearts and loving hands could do was dene for her comfort; but God knew best and it was His will to take her from this world of suffering to a land of peace and rest. Her happy disposition was an inspiration to all who knew her. She never complained, was patient in her suffering, and always greeted you with a smile. So brave and happy was she, that invariably . her answer was, "Oh, I am all right," no matter when asked how she was feeling. We miss her, but we know she is now with her loved ones, where there is neither pain nor sorrow but where everything is perfecc. She was a faithful and loyal worker in t h e church, Sunday School, Missionary Society and community. In all of these she was untiring in her efforts and unselfish in her life.

I am home in heaven, dear ones; All's so happy, all's so bright! There's perfect joy and beauty In this everlasting light. All the pain and grief are over, Every restless tossing passed; I am now at peace forever, Safely home in heaven at last. Did you wonder I so calmly Trod the Valley of the Shade? Oh, but Jesus' love illumined Every dark and fearful glade! And He came Himself to meet me On the way so hard to tread; And with Jesus' arm to lean on, Could I have one doubt or dread? Then you must not grieve so sorely, For I love you dearly still: Try to look beyond earth's shadows, Pray to trust our Father's will. There is work still waiting for you So you must not idle stand, Do your work while life remaineth You shall rest in Jesus' land. When that work is all completed He will gently call you home; Oh, the rapture of the meeting! Oh, the joy to see you come!

WALTER A. FOX The news of the death of Walter Alexander Fox came to the eommu nitv of Mountain Grove, B»th county Virginia, on Decemcer 23, 1925, at p. m , like a thunderbolt from a clear sky. Mr. Fox was injured February 19, 1925, while working in the woods. While felling a tree a limb broke off and Dew back striking his left arm, breaking it. This arm had caused him much trouble, ha ring it broke over and reset some three or four times. He had not been able to do a da^y's work since the accident ] and it is generally thought that his , death was due to couditlons resulting from this injury. Mr. Fox was born May 29, 1881:1 died Dec. 23, 1925, and was buried j on Christmas day at 11 o'clock a. m. His age was 44 years, six nonths and 22 days. Mr, Fox leaves to mourn his departure his aged father Wi):te;a Fox (who resides with the family), a devoted wife and five children, Emmi, Nannie, Arthur, Raymond and Vernon. Mrs. Fox's maiden name was Rider Tliis death was the occasion for much sadness in the neighborhood, as the community was preparing to have an entertainment and Xmas tree for the Sunday school in the Methodist church, Of which he and his family were members, and were to have a rehearsal meeting that evening. Mr. Fox was preparing to take some children to practice, and ran his car aut to a nearby creek to fill the radiator. He stayed longer I than usual and Mrs. Fox became un ' easy and made mention of the fact, and the father went to Investigate and found him dead in the car at the creek where he had stopped, but had not gotten out of the car. The last work Mr. Fox did at home was to get and place a tree in the parlor for the children. I t was only partly trlmmad. But alas! in a few hours his lifeless form was* placed before th3 tree and the anticipated joy of the family and neighborhood was turned into sorrow. Mr. Fox had been a member of the Methodist Church, South, for about! twenty-four years, and was always devoted to the interests of his church and assisted to the best of his ability. The Christmas program was cancelled In respect to the family and a spirit of sympathy for them was deeply manifested. The attendance at the funeral was very large and showed a very loving and neighborly spirit. The church looses a faithful and loyal member, and the community a ?ood citizen, but words ^ s m o t ex press the loss to the family. Our hearts melt in sympathy for them, although they do not mourn or sorrow as those haying no hope, that in some near future the same hand that lead a dear husband and father out of the home, will come and lead the other members of the family to a brighter better land where husband and father has gone to await their

We believe Brother Fox has gone to a land where the Christmas spirit is always in order and that he has joined that Immortal throng In singing the songs of Moses and the Lamb. We also believe that our loss is his gain. While his pastor was preparing an address to be given at the Christmas tree, the phone rang and he W-SS notiflad of this sad news and was obliged to change the nature of his message, which was to have been one of* joy and praise to one more serious, yet not wanting for joy and praise, but to warn the living of the uncertainties of life, from the words of David when King Saul sought to kill him, and Jonathan was trying to console him: But truly as the Lord liveth, and as thy soul llveth, there is but a step between me and death H.

My dear friends and my dear children and childrens' children think this serious matter over and get ready for death. Let us not think but lets act. BE READY Therefore be ye also ready for in such an hour as ye think nut the Son of Man cometh.

Court is Adjourned FORMER LEGISLATOR AND RETIRED.

Superior Court Judge Ralph Moody, 81, died Feb. 19 in Anchorage. Moody was raised in a, poor Alabama farming family.. While Moody was in high school:, his father gave him a calf to raise. When the calf was grown, Moody rented it RALPH MOODY out to a next-door neighbor for milking. This milk money paid Moody's tuition at the University of Alabama Law School where Vie received his doctorate of law. In 1946 Moody moved to Juneau to work for the Office of Price Administration, but within two weeks he had landed another job as an artorney with the Army Corps of Engineers. The young lawyer soon entered state politics, first serving in the territorial and state Legislatures, and then as majority leader of the first state Senate. In 1960, Governor Bill Egan appointed Moody to the position of state attorney general. Two years later, Egan appointed him to the Superior Court bench, a post he held for 23 years. Moody quickly gained the reputation of a by-the-book judge. He scoffed when anyone suggested poverty was an excuse for committing a crime. "I don't buy that," he once said. "You shouldn't get off because you're poor any more than you should get offif you're rich." He also was tough on repeat offenders who tried to use divine salvation as a cover. In a national magazine interview, Moody recalled what he told a criminal up for sentencing in his court years ago: "Well, I've been sitting on this bench a good many years, and a lot of you fellows find God there [in jail]," Moody said. "However, he never seems to accompany you when you leave, so I've concluded that he lives there, and I'm sending you back where he can keep an eye on you." Seaborn Buckalew, a longtime Moody friend and fellow judge, once said: "A defendant who stood in front of him would have a moment of terror. He was no-nonsense—straight as an arrow."

Pamela Kay McLaughlin Pamela Kay McLaughlin, 18-month-old daughter of Basil Edward and Joyce Friel McLaughlin, died Saturday morning, October 26,1968, in the Pocahontas Memorial Hospital, of pneumonia. She was born April 4, 1967, in Marlinton. Besides her parents she is survived by a four-year-old sister, Robn Lea; her grandparents, Mrs. GeraldineSheets McLaughlin and Mr. and Mrs. Guy Friel; the great-grandparents, E. C. Sheets, Elmer McLaughlin and Mrs. McLaughlin and Mrs. Roberta Friel. Funeral services were held Monday morning in the Marlinton Presbyterian Church by the Rev. Donald Wood, with burial in Mountain View Cemetery.

Always a devoted, active christian, she had been a member for a life time of the church of her fathers, the Presbyterian. Mr. and Mrs. McLaughlin were church builders, and I they w(j.2 in no community long be fore a church and Sunday School would be established through their influence. Mrs. McLaughlin lived to a ript -old age but she never became old. Her bodily strength failed, but she main • tained her strong mind to the lastihour. Her friends and companions were of all ages from toddling child hood to tottering old age. She shared l a t h e jays and sorrows of ti/em all. She lived all her life for others. Her active mind and busy hands were so filled with thought and care for others that t'.ny uncertainty of the future or trial of the past must needs care for itself. By her the tear of a child never went unnoticed any more then the supposedly deeper sorrow of those of mature years The sharing of others burdens became her part In early life, As a young girl she saw a brother sho"; d >wn and other brothers carried t o . prison by an invading army. She was the comfort and stay of her broken parents, She began her married life in a countrysids devastated by war I t was her lot to 1 suffer the trials and disappointments incident to a long life in this world, much of it during a hard period of our country's history..
