In the event that the house re

Tuckerman, Ark., April 24.
Editor Independent:
Dear Sir—Please allow me space
i your paper to thank my many
friends who so deeply sympathize
with me and my children in this
| the saddest hour of our lives.
On February 10 last God took
from me my wife. We had
traveled o’er life’s rugged path
for twenty-nine years together,
but the time seemed so short
when I had to give her up. She
was so good, so kind and so lov
ing that it seems when I think
of her, which is all the time, that
my heart wi!fl almost break. She
left six children, two boys and
four girls, to lweep with me; one
girl married, |he rest are at home
with me. i
~ ----
erected at the grave, but my j
great and grand consolation is:
that when the roll is called up'
yonder I will meet her there.
She was a faithful member of
the Methodist church for a long
! time, and friends I do so ear
| nestly pray that my children may
heed her last and continuous
prayers that we meet above to
part and grieve no more.
Of course, I could sit and talk
: or write of her all the time, but
I those who have not had the sad
experience that I have had can't
feel as I do. A happy home is
the dearest, sweetest spot on
earth, but my home is not
the home it was when my dear
wife was with me.
With the deepest of sympathy
for all who are left as I am, I
“ *- W ! and a home in

Judsonia, April 26.—The first
carload of strawberries of this
season went out Monday night.1
The entire shipment was 1,500
cases, which is exceedingly large
for this time; and foretells the
unusually large crop to be mar
