    'SUFFOLK LETTER'. 

[...] 

  Geo. W. [sic; M.] Stever, of Stever Station, died January 31, and was buried 
February 2nd, in Cedar Hill cemetery, Suffolk.  He was a German by birth, but 
has been in the service of the Seaboard R.R. for over thirty years.  He was a 
good civil engineer and most of their work for many years has been under his 
care.  He was a man of integrity and had many friends.  He leaves a wife and 
one son.  He expressed himself as resigned to God's will.  Services were 
conducted at his residence by this writer, and then we brought his mortal 
remains in a special car to Suffolk and laid his body away in the tomb.
