ritv: from that day to this he has
been doing a wholesale business in
Newton with a varying success, and
just recently took a venture in the re
tail business as a side line to his
wholesale operations; in this engage
ment he was rapidly succeeding and
was doing a retail business second to
none in the city. Mr. Bickett was an
indefatiglble worker and was In his
place of business at least 16 hours
each day, always pleasant, affable
and a frlendmaker by the score. It
seemed that when the sugar depres
sion came on and w hen the wholesal
ers all over the country were caught
in the drag net of the Jobbers and
forced to free themeselves as best
they could, that Mr. Bickett paid his
demands made upon him by these
neoule. and through his act In uphold
ing his contracts was forced to outlay
a great amount of cash; that the hard
times generally caught him, as it did
other wholesalers, and that his losses
were terrific, enough to break the
will power to make money of the
strongest man. He has also suffered
acutely with his eyes, and has fre
quently remarked to friends that he
had to find 30tne cure for his ailment
or that he was going to die. or cer
tainly go blind In both of his eyes.
It has only been a few weeks that he
visited an eye specialist In Charlotte
and elsewhere, and It seems that he
nee II red little consolation from any of
them. However, through It all he
was pleasant and In good humor ana
seemed to take his affliction with the
best of spirit and always thought of
his home life and his friends in pref
erence to his nersonal feelings.
Mr. Bickett was married but had
no children, and it Is generally known
that his home life was beautiful and
that true hosuitality was administer
ed there as In the olden days, his
home being one of the prettiest in
this section and being widely known
for the aonearance it presented.
There Is no doubt in the minds of
anv one In Newton conversant with
nil the farts but that Mr. Bickett was
mentally deranged when he left the
city nnd that he is still in mat conai
tiou wherever he may be, wandering
aimlessly around, suffering from the
pains that are racking his body. His
financial condition Is not causing an
great amoent of alarm as his condi
tion In that reject Is Just as good.

the denression of the market.
Mr. Yount has been appointed re

Newton generally has Pall cast
