A Tribute ofkiSpcCt.
On Monday, Feb., the 8th, Prof. P.
H. Jackman, of color, died at his home
in the suburbs of Columbia, surround
ed by his loved ones and friends, the
cause being heart trouble. He had
only been confined to his room a few
days and the physician had informed
the family that his condition was
much improved, but the critical mo
ment came when fond hopes were en
tertained for recovery.
He was born May the 24th 1S45, in
Russell county, near Cree Isidore
Through bis own efforts and under
trying circumstonces he acquired a
good education, and for forty-five
years lie has taught school, twenty
eight years being spent in this county.
A close student he was proficient as a
teacher, thorough and earnest in his
work, and the good he accomplished in J
lllti bCUUUl IUULU Will UYtt UU LU Llltt
betterment of his race. JTot only was
his effort and teaching confined to the
school, but his living and his influence
as a gospel minister were earnest and
sincere. He professed faith in Christ
in the early part of life, united with
the Methodist church, but later on be
came a Baptist and entered its minis-
try,living a consistent Christian, an
earnest, zealous ex pounder of the faith.
He died in the faith without a fear,
but with the joy that comes to well
spent living.
He was married to Frances Wil
liams, of Green county, in 1SS9, and
moved to Columbia, becoming the
leader and director of the colored
teachers of this county. He stood
preeminently at the head of the ed
ucational movement of his race in
this county, and sought to inspire the
highest ideals, best efforts and most
lasting achievments, being instru
mental in moulding the minds of more
boys and girls than any other man of
his race in Southern Kentucky, and
his work will live on. He was a
Union soldier and no complaint ever
came that he faltered or failed to do
his duty in that struggle.
He is survived by a loving wife, two
daughters and one brother. His
body was laid to rest in the family
burying ground, witnessed by a large
gathering of sympathizing friends who
deeply felt the loss his death brought
to their people. Kb greater tribute
can be paid the departed than to say
he was true to his responsibilities in
life, whether they be public or private,
true to his color, and did all within
his power to develop and make better
his people and surroundings.
His efforts, attainments and the
high esteem in which lie was held is a
rich legacy to the surviving members
of die family, and an honor and bless
ing to the colored of this entire sec
tion. By one of his pupils,

"Thy will be done our Savior dear,
For thou dosfc know what's best;
Help us Thy gracious name to fear,
And find in Thee sweet rest.
Ourheaitsare crushed beneath the

Of grief that's come Co us;
But still we'll travel Heaven's road
For Thou art good and just.
Our "Walter's gone from earth away,
To live with God above,
Where all is one eternal day
To bask in bondless love.
A son, obedient and kind,
A brother true and good,
Whose light for God did ever shine,
As in his way he stood.
We hoped for him a future bright,
In. calling men from sin;
Long years to live as in God's sight,
The erring ones to win.
But as he is no more of earch,
But Thou hast called him home
Where his glad soul no man shall
thirst
And grief is never known.
We give him up and say good-bye!
We'll meet again some day,
In that sweet land above the sky
With Thee always to stay."
