James Edward STALLINGS 

  JUSTICE STALLINGS DEAD. - A telegram was received in Suffolk yesterday 
announcing the death of Mr. James E. Stallings at his home near Buckhorn. 
Mr. Stallings is well known throughout the county and was a magistrate whose 
rulings were generally unquestioned.  He was about 65 years of age.  The 
funeral will occur to day, the interment being in the family burying ground. 
He was the father of Mr. Frank E. Stallings, clerk of the board of school 
trustees in Chuckatuck district.

  JUSTICE STALLINGS' FUNERAL. - A large gathering of friends and former 
comrades in arms collected at the residence of the late James E. Stallings, 
near Buckhorn, to tender the last honor to his remains.  The funeral was 
conducted at home by Rev. J.F. Deans, Windsor.  The interment was in the old 
family burying ground, the following pallbearers serving: Mills H. Holland, 
Sr., John Rhodes, James W. Griggs, T.A. McClenney, John J.S. Branch and Carr 
D. Holland.  The deceased was 69 years of age.  His wife, to whom he was 
married forty four years ago, survives him.

  THEY WANT HIS SON. - There is a prevalent sentiment with the constituency 
of the late Justice Stallings that he be succeeded in office by his son, Mr. 
Frank Stallings.  His association with his father, they say, during many years 
of service, has rendered him well qualified for the position.  He is also 
popular with the constables.
