JOHN GARLAND DEAD.

Last Saturday, at his home near Millerton, John Garland, one of the leading and best known Choctaws in the country, died of pneumonia, after an illness of only a few days.
John Garland was a good man, even in his younger days when inclined to wildness. A few years ago he was converted and ever after led an exemplary, consistent christian life, preaching the gospel exactly as he saw and believed it.
He died a faithful christian soldier beloved by all, leaving a small family and a host of friends to mourn their loss.
He was buried at 2 p. m. Sunday afternoon in the family burying ground near his old home under the auspices and ceremonies of the Masonic fraternity.
