H. C. Childs. - On Tuesday the remains of Mr. H. C. Childs were laid to rest 
from the Episcopal Church here. Interment was made in Rose Hill cemetery.

Mr. Childs came to this parish early in the 80's with his family and was for 
many years the junior member of the firm of Martin & Childs, well known as 
cane growers and sugar manufacturers. Later he moved his planting operations 
to St. Mary.

He had been in bad health for several years, much of which time he made his 
home with Mrs. Earl Barnet, his daughter, in St. Mary, near Centreville, 
where he died.

During his long residence in this parish he made a host of friends in all 
walks of life, who regret his death and deeply sympathize with the bereaved 
members of his family.
