Asleep.

Mr. Jas. M. Cayce died at his home a few miles South of town Monday night, aged 89 years. Senility was the cause, his health having been growing more feeble for some time from extreme age.
Mr. Cayce was born near where he spent his entire life, in 1827, and was one of the county's best known and most substantial citizens.
During his long life he enjoyed the respect and esteem of his neighbors and was an upright man and a consistent member of the Christian church. His membership was in Liberty church, of which he was always a leading member and foremost in all affairs of his church and the community in which he lived.
He is survived by his wife and two sons, J. W. Cayce and E. C. Cayce, also two step-children, R. S. Lindsay, and Mrs. Columbus Gregory.
Funeral services were held at the family residence yesterday morning by Rev. J. S. Hawkins and the burial was in the Montgomery Adams graveyard near by.
Mr. Cayce was widely connected with many of the prominent families of the county and was in every respect a useful and highly esteemed citizen.
