A Beautiful Incident.


Chronicle, writing from Nantucket,
gives the following beautiful example
of disinterestcd benevolcnce
Many years ago, q hu sband and ia
Their started from his home to com
mence his morning W rk in rOpewalk
upon our island. Breaktast-tme came
and, as was her wont, his faithful wife
left her home TO convey her husbands
breakfast to him. The snow had been
falling for soma time, but she needed
it not, and started to cross some open
lots in the outskirts of our town. The
wind blew violently, and the binding
snow disturbed her SO that she lost her
path, and when found, some time after
she was leaning against fence, smoth-
cred, frozen, dead. The father died
also, | think. ere long, and tn ir two
orphan children were taken to our
alms-house. Years passed, and the
children grew to momanhood, and in
