JAMES MALOY
James Maloy was born June 5th 1858, in what is now a part of Stone County, at the time it
was a part of Izard Co., Ark. He grew up to manhood here in our midst, and was well
known by every body in the county. He was untied in marriage to Miss Saline Winston,
a daughter of the late S. H. Winston, deceased, and a niece of Judge R. H. Powell, the
12th day of February 1891. He built a residence in Mountain View, and resided there
until his death. A few days before his death he carried a car load of stock to St.
Louis, arriving there on Saturday, January 13, 1894, and was staying over until Monday to
sell. On Sunday evening, 14, at 6 o'clock p. m., he was struck by an Electric Street
car, knocked down and run over, breaking both legs and one arm. The surgeon of the
car company amputated his limbs, and doubtless kind treatment was given him, but the the
shock was so terrible that he died on Monday 15. His body was embalmed and sent to
his family, and on the 18, was buried at Mountain View cemetery in the presence of his
family and relatives. A large congregation of friends attended his funeral.
It looks hard to have to give up life whre when manhood at its prime for
usefulness, but sure is often the case. James Maloy was nearing 36 years of age, and
was energetic; battling with resumable success at the affairs of this world. He was
the worst enemy he had to himself. But misfortune, accident, and death, respects no
one. "Man cometh forth like a flower, and is cut down; he fleeth alas as a
shadow, and continueth not." Such is the life of this world, friends mourn the loss
of friends and loved ones, the busy world moves on as if nothing had taken place. A
wiseman said;"Behold thou has made my days as an hand breadth; and mine age is as
nothing before thee; __ every man at his vest state is altogether vanity." The
question was asked three thousand years ago "If a man dies shall he live again?"
and over eighteen hundred years ago the answer came, "I am the resurrection
and the life; he that believeth in me though he were dead, yet shall believe."
Here then is the secret success in life, "Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his
righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you." May the family
take "Him who speak as never man speak," as their pattern and the consolation
found there, ever be theirs is the sincere wish of the writer. Wm. H. H. Oyler

JAMES
MONROE McCALLISTER The sad news has come to us that Eld. J M.
McCallister, of Hanover, is dead. He died December 8, 1922.
Brother McAllister was one of the greatest preachers in North Arkansas.
Was full of pure religion and was a genuine Baptist full of faith. He
was humble, obedient and loyal to Jesus. He came to our association at Locust
Grove last September and preached two fine sermons that will long be
remembered. While taking the parting band at the close of the meeting
said, he would soon cross over to that great beyond where there would be no
more goodbyes. He has gone on to glory and is sitting on the banks of
sweet deliverance. Yes, he has gone to dwell with Jesus forever.
So let us all pray that God may send the Holy Spirit to comfort his good
family in their sad bereavement, will say to them that their loss is heaven's
gain. May God bless all the bereaved ones and his many good
friends. J. C. Richardson, Jamestown, Ark., Dec. 26, 1922.

THOMAS MILLS After a brief, but painful, illness of eight days, Thomas Mills, a
lifelong resident and respected citizen of our town, died on the 4th inst. and was
interred in the Alco cemetery in the presence of a large and grief stricken concourse of
friends and neighbors at 5 o'clock on the 5th. He leaves a wife and four loving
daughters to mourn their loss besides a host of relatives and friends. The bereaved
have the heartfelt sympathy of the entire community. In his last hours he said the
road was clear and that he was supplied withe the munitions of the warfare. Then let
us remember the words of Christ to the weeping sisters of Lazarus and think that he is not
dead but sleepeth and that one day in the dim vista of the future there will be a great
awaking and a happy meeting of those who fall asleep in the arms of Jesus. The

Hattie Bell Miser died at her home in Calico Rock,
Dec. 15, 1897, Miss Hattie Bell Miser, aged 15 years, 11 months and 4 days. She
leaves a father, mother, one sister and one brother to mourn her loss. She was sick
for 20 days and bore her suffering with patience. She was a bright and lovely girl
and loved by all who knew her and an affectionate daughter and sister. "Dust to
dust, ashes to ashes," there to remain until the resurrection morn. The dust
returns to dust, the spirit to God who gave it. She was buried in the graveyard
where her grandmother and grandfather and three little sisters were laid to rest.
The funeral services were conducted by the Rev. John Anderson at the grave, attended by a
large crowd of mourning friends. We have lost a beloved friend but heaven has gained
a bright star. Hattie is far from us now, but thank God we can go to her.
"Who so ever will come let him come, and drink of the water of life freely," and
may God grant that her parents may be ready to meet her in that land where there is no
more parting. A Friend

MAY MORRIS Friday, January 23, 1914, Death in Richwoods, Little Child of Mr. and
Mrs. Neal Morris Dies of Spinal Meningitis. Little May, the four year old
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Neal Morris of Richwoods, died at 11 o'clock Tuesday night of
Spinal Meningitis. The little girl was taken suddenly ill on Saturday night, and on
Sunday had developed Cerebro Spinal Meningitis, and little hope for her was given out from
the start. About two weeks ago, the child fell on an axe and cut one of her fingers
completely off. A physician was summoned and the finger was stuck together and
splinted and had apparently healed, until last Saturday when it was again slightly injured
by a fall. Whether the finger had anything to do with the later developments, is not
know. Little May was the only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Morris and was an unusually
bright and intelligent little girl. she leaves a father, mother, two little brothers
and a host of other relatives and friends who mourn her loss. Funeral services and
interment were held at the Fredonia Cemetery. The Democrat extends sincere
sympathy to the bereaved ones.
