The sad intelligence of the death
of lliiH grand old lady, one of the
earliest pioneers of the Lone Star
State, spread over the town with al-
most the rapidity of lightning, ami
soon, in smothered whisper, the
words, "Mis. Chambers is dead,"
was upon every lip.
Mrs. Chambers was the oldest lady,
and probably the oldest resident of
the county, except, possibly, Mr.
Claiborne Osborne, a resident of the
Flgin neighborhood, in the wi st-
ern portion of the county.
Her maiden name was Margaret
Harker. Slit was a native of North
Carolina, born in that state in the
year 1*10. When she was very young
her parents moved from North Caro-
lina to Tennessee, and a few yours
thereafter, from thence to Missouri,
where, i,\ September, 1827, she was
married to Joeiah Wilbarger and
shortly afterward, with her husband
and parents, immigrated to Texas,
reaching the elate just after Christ-
mas day, of the year IX—over li'.i
years ago.
Deceased was married twice. Her
first husband, Josiali Wilbarger, was
scalped by the Indians, during the
early and trying days of 'I'exae, left
for dead, but revived, was found by
friends, carried home, living many
| years thereafter. Seven children
! blessed her union with Mr. Wilbur-
ber, only one of whom, Janice Har-
vey, lived to be grown. This son
died in Hastrop shortly after the w ar,
leaving a wife, one son and four
daughters.
Ilcr second marriage was to Mr.
T. W. Chambers, iu IN Hi, three
mrls, Mrs. J. F. Olive, of Hastrop,
Mrs. J. A. Hooper, of Austin, and
Miss Fcnora Chambers, of Hastrop,
blessing this union, all of whom sur-
vive and mourn her dealh.
I'util a short time before licrl
death, .Mis. Cliamhcts was healthy,!
hearty and active, able to visit around
among her neighbors, whose society
she loved so much. Truly, is she
missed by all.
Having lived a long aud eventful
life, a full score of years more than
the days allotted to man, surrounded
by children and grand children, and
a "whole city full" of sympathizing
friends, she quietly and peacefully,
as if falling to sleep, passed from
earth lo her reward in Heaven—the
certain home of the pure and the
good.
There never lived a better, nobler,
pucrcr woman, than Mrs. Margaret
Chambers. A dutiful daughter, a
Mr. Prokop, in Haetrop, was a mix-
ture of Durham ami Jersey, ami
weighed I Ifitt pounds, Mr. Prokop
has been milking the cow contin-
uously for the last five years, the
first }ear wilh the calf, and the last
four years without a calf. It was a
brown inulcy, and rolling ful. Torn,
always on the alert for the best for
his l'ulace market, has been trying
to get his hands on this cow for six
mouths past. It sill be killed so
soon as the weather changes, and
Bel veil to the patrons of the Palace
market. The cow was driven through
the streets Thursday, attracting gen-
eral admiration. \ number of
guesses of its weight were made, aud
iu the guessing S25 changed hands.
BANK DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
On Tuesday, Jan. 12th, as tlxed by
law, the annual election of directors
and officers of the First National
Hank, of Hastrop, took place, when
the stockholders elected, or rather,
re-elected tlu f dlowing directors to
serve for the next twelve months:

Powell, H. I). Orgain, Chester F.r-
liard, II. P. Luckctt, A. ('. Krhard,
W. H. Rivers, W. J. Hill. The di-
rectors subsequently re-elected all
the old ofHcers, as follows: H. D.
Orgain, president; T. A. Hasler,
vice-president; Chester Krhard, cash-
ier; Fugene Frhard, assistant cash-
ier, Messrs. Powell, Hasler and Luck-
ctt were elected a finance committee.

being put to press, a- alarm of lire
was given, and for awhile it was
thought to be impossible to sa\e W.

buildings. The lire originated in the
back room of the drug store, and is
supposed to be from the explosion
of a lamp. It is impossible to esti-
mate the loss, but it is very heavy,
to Mr. Miley. Hon. J. P. Fowler is
a heavy loser. Ilis ofiicc, imme-
diately over the building, is a com-
plete wreck, and his line law library,
the accumulation of a life time, is
thought to be entirely ruined from
