OolastTcesdiy the lOtli, Mr.
Hiiutswas kicked by one of his

friends, with no idea thafc hia In-
jnries would prove fatal. Dr.
Kimbrongb was called in,. and on
SCednesday Dr. Stokes of Salis-
bnry was in nttendaiice, but left
on the ovcninjn: iirain, notst all
apprebcnsiwe of fhial resalts. ilih
condition scented not to improve,
and Dr. ICimhrongb remained
with bixn Weduosday night until
his deith Tltiirsday morning, and
he fella itatbat he never reoovercd
from Ute shock fCstiUing f/om the
kick. The snddcuness and sad
uess of tbia death haa cast a gloom
over town and the entire county;
for tiiore was not a more popnlur and
likeable ntuu in Davie county. We
have known bim since boyhoo<l,
and have always bad for him the
liighest r^rds. He alwnvs met
yon with a Siuile and pleasant word,
and when yon parted with him,
you felt that a gentleman and
friend had gone. Kind, gentle ns
a woman, yon were instinotively
drawn tO him, and so far as we
know, he had not an enemy. Mr
Hanes was a native of Davie, born
near b'nlton, he had spent mcsb of
his life in the county. A, few years
ago be formed a oopaniiersbip
with his brother the late B. F.
Hanes at Winston, and moved
there and manniacturod tobacco.
About a year ago he retnrn<Hl to
Darie, pxirchaeed a home in
Mooksviile and erected a magnifi
cent resideuce where hia wife's
father Col* Mart Booe formerly
lived. He was engaged in farm-
log, and was one of the best la the
county. lu the prime of maubood
abont 52 years of age, he is called
away leaving a widow and seven
children. He was the nominee
last year of his par^ for county
commission^:, and the vote he re
ceived—ranniug ahead of bis tick
et, showed bis popnlaiity, tbongh
-lefcated. While the writer diff-
'ired with him poUtioally we had
authing but the Idndost and high
est r^rds for bini as a man. To
mm him np truly, he was a per
feot gentleman—one of natnros
Qoblemei), and wo all know and
fed that we have lost a good man
lud friend, and a useful and en
lorprising citrien. whose (akin
away leaves a ^"ucancy hard to
fill, and whioh will be long felt'by
-mr town and county. His remains
were laid to rest Satorday evening
after the funeral services bad
t>eea conducted at the Methodist
church by Bevs. SherriU, Vi'are
and Willsou, in the Rose burial
gconuil, iu tile presence of the lar
gest attendance ever witnessed in
the county. To hm bereaved wife
whose loss is ineparable and to hie
obildreu who have lost a tender,
loving^athsar we extend onr heart
folt sympathy'. Peace to his ashes.
for he sleepeth the sleep of the
righteous. We will miss the true
gentloiuaii, the faitlifnl aod devot
ed husband, tbe loving afTeetionate

that he was.
