A Pioneer Gone William Steveus was born in Stanton, April 8, 1800, was married to Miss Lucy M.

White, in Albermarle county, August 22, 1827, moved to Missouri in 1832 and, settled in Paris, where he made his home until after the late war. He Iost his wife in March, 1861. He moved to Keytesville in 1873, where he has since made his home with his children. He was the father of Mrs. R.

M. Scott and Mrs. O. F. Smith, of Keytesville, of Mrs.

McVeigh, of Salisbury, of James M. Stevens, living near Guthridge Mills, and grand-father of Mrs. Wm. E. Hill and Mrs.

H. C. Hyde, of this place and vicinity, and of Mrs. John Dismukes and Mrs. Wm.

Martin, of Salisbury. Deceased made his home with Capt. R. M. Scott and wife since they moved to this place, and for a number of years has closely confined to his room on account of physical infirmities.

In all that time he bore bis sufferings with Christian resignation. In early life he became a member of the Methodist church and ever lived a consistent Christian life. Being excluded through physi-lcal inability from thepriviliges of the sanctuary, his Bible became his daily companion and comfort. He read more or less of it every day, and seemed to imbibe the spirit of its teachings. He was naturally modest and retiring in his disposition.

One had to know him in order to appreciate him fully. He never 480unded a trumpet before him" as some do, yet he was a man of great integrity and possessed of more than ordinary intelligence. When convinced that the time for his departure was near at hand he announced his desire to depart and be at rest. On the morn ing of the 7th inst, he calmly breathed his last. Though his an unexpected event death was not it soemed to carry with it a shock to every member of the family, even to the fourth generation.

On Tuesday morning his remains were borne from the residence of Capt. Scott to the Methodist church, where religious exercises wers conducted by Revs. Bell aud Simrall. The former preached an appropriate sermon, -and the latter led the congregation to a throne of grace in a feeling prayer. The remains of the good old man were taken to the cemetery and5 gently laid to rest.
