(Special to Virginian-Pilot.') Hertford, N. C, Oct. 9.?Yesterday afternoon at 12:15 o'clock "the angel of death" passed over the town and snatched Its victim In Us clammy em? brace and loft the town In deep mourn? ing. The death of Mr. McMullen was a blow to the town, from which it will not recover as long as memory exists. The funeral services wore performed in tho M. E. Church this afternoon at 3 o'clock. From the church the sad pro? cession wended its way to Cedarwood Cemetery, where the remains were In? terred in the fumlly burying plot. Mr. McMullen was- born In Green county, Va., in tho year of 1843. He moved to this town in December, 1SG0, and went Into business with Mr. Zac. Toms in January, lSCtJ, a?ld continued in tho manufacture of buggies until his recent Illness, which would not permit of further service during the time. The llrm of Toms & McMullen enjoyed an envied reputation, and he will be missed In the firm. Mr. McMullen was ever for tho right and ever opposed to the wrong. He was a member of tho Methodist Church and an enthusiastic church worker, and did much work In the Lord's cause. He was a liberty-loving man, and his idea of politics was not disputed. To the downfallcn he always lent a help? ing hand; to the poor lie was ever charitable. He was the model of a gentleman in church, in home, in bus? iness; and, in every walk of life, ho was the same?honest, upright and ever fearing God. In tho spring of '07 the health of Mr. McMullen became broken, and death's ghastly representative, consumption, threatened him. From that time his hcallh began to fail, and he grew weak? er and weaker until, at la6t, a change of climate was prescribed. Ho wont to the mountains of Virginia and spent a few weeks during the months of Au? gust and September. Returning homo a few weeks ago, he took to his bod, whore he lias been nursed by tender hail da until death relieved him of his sufferings and left a wife without a husband, sons and daughters without a father. Mr. McMullen leaves a host of rola tives and countless friends to mourn their loss. Weep riot, loved ones: ho is not dead, but has crossed the dark river to meet his heavenly reward, whore the cares and sorrows of earth are not known. Our sympathies arc with you, loved ones, and the Virginian-Pilot extends its heartfelt sympathies. Wo have all got to die, and none was bolter pre? pared than ho. r.I)Kvr<?n.

Nature sets her face against child? lessness and "Favorite Prescription" works with nature to remove the ob? stacles to maternity.

Evans, of Parsons, Luzerne Co., Pa.. Box 41. "When about to give up in despair. I bought a bottle of Dr. Tierce's Favorite Prescrip? tion and after taking it felt better than I had for years. Pelt improved before I had taken one half bottle. After taking four and a balf bottles I gave birth to a bright baby girl who is now - four months old and hao not had a day of sick? ness. She is as bright as can be. I cannot say too much in praise of Dr. Pierre's Favorite Prescription." .:->Dr. Pierce's Medical Adviser a work ior every woman is sent free on receipt of stamps to pay cost of mailing only.
