QUEEN CRY, Ohio, Nov. 26, 1912.
GENERAL BENNETT
In your weekly of last Saturday, the death
of Major Isaac Clark is mentioned as having
taken place at Newport Barracks, on the let instant
This is mistake Major Clark was drowned about
a hundred miles above this city some four months
since, land the solemn duty Of re-ntering his
was not performed till cold weather would permit
He was buried with the honors of war by the vo-
lunteer companies of this city, and accompanied to
the ground by large number ofrespectabe citizens
In my last, an error also appeared the Gazette
issued Mr. Perkins lecture instead of Mr.. Clay's
speech, but that s.of little moment-so having made
two corrections, | will proceed with the subject |
had marked out for this letter.
1t takes no little spirit and small share of ambi
ton to induce man to leave his home, his friends
and all that is dear to him, and go to live in strange
good education--and yet this was done by a young
man from the State of New York Young Wood
ward, who had just finished his education, and
come to the West to obtain an independent liveli-
hood, was that man. He came here to obtain
situation school teacher, with all youths bright
antcipations of being useful to himself and to soce-
ty, Of one day being thought a not useless member
OF communicable came here and found his giave
The circumstances are these: when he came here
he went 10 Mrs. Obs to board, and while
there he was taken sick with a fever; at the same
time the Iady's daughter was also sick, and Dr. -
was her attendant uPhyslclan he was asked to pre-,
He put him of by telling him that he was home
suck, and had no fever. The young man com
planned not-he was christian, and too meek to
murmHr. When II was found that he was actually
in high fever, about forty dollars was raised
among the neghbors and presented to him, and the
doctor was told TO spare exertion to save him;
the remedy came, but came too late; he died. and
through neglect he died Who ls TO blame Mrs
OIL is not-she gave him all the attention she
could. Who then is to blame Dr.. --;-Dr -
of - sreet-who lived not over fifty yards from
where the sick man laId-he is to blanche neg.
Mr. J. O. Taylor has been lecturing in this city,
during this week, on education He is endeavorns
to wake Ohio up, Tor, he says she is asleep--that
New York and Ohio are like the tortoise and the
hare that New York is the tortoise and has reach
ed the goal, but that Ohio is the hare and has gone
10 sleep. THIS a hard dose to swallow but II
had to go down. He had most respectable audience
and goodly number of teachers, lawyers, Judges
and divlnes TO hear him--ladies without number
The pork season has now fairly commenced, and
hogs heads and spare ribs are all the GO, to Judge
from the number carried through the streets. II
there are any starving poor in New York, send
them on; twelve aud half cents will buy a large
basket full of ribs and a head thrown in. Pork is
selling from ~ to So % BUCKLEY
CHATHAM THEATRE- After all this,b of a the
iire is the most active, talented, and profitable OF
my IA New York. There is real enjoyment in tins
beautiful little house. The uproarous laughter OF
the pit at joke, does ones heart good. There is
IN air of comfort around the boxes-a gorgeous
look of delight, that reminds one of 'home, sweet
,ome." In the Chatham, the keen, cherries
winds of winter don't whistle through empty boxes
AID deserted pit Hearts and hands are there in
Misunderstanding feeling of humanity over its
whole concave The Chatham is the true theatre
Of social enjoyment, on the most liberal scale.
