Christ Church.-The friends of the old Pine
Apple Church in the Valley, and all others
interested in the cause of religion, ought to
give liberal aid to the public effort now max
ing 10 rebuild this church. For the sake of
the associations of the past, as well as the me-
cessities Of the present. there ought to be
no difficulty in the speedy completion of this
benevolent enterprise. The convenience of
the inhabitants OF the Valley would be greatly
promoted by such an edifice i'm their midst,
especially in the hot months of summer, when
it is no light matter for ladies and children to
make their way to the churches on Shockoe or
Church Hills. There is no church at present
convenient tosthis, the densest portion of the
population of Richmond-a fact which pre-
vents thousands of them from attending any
church at all, and which ought to have its in
huence in untying the purse-strings of those
who give abundantly to foreign missions, WI lille
there is one at their doors ready TO yield more
fruit, and which has long been asking for aid.
The property holders of the Valley, upon q
little reflection, might see the advantage TO
their own interests of handsome church in
their neighborhood, and the ieneficini effects
upon good order, morality, and the peace and
quiet of society, which flow from the location
of a church, Sunday School, &c.

Fatal accident - Forcing Ssttlenssnt--Camp
Meetings., @c
GLOUCESTER COUNTY, VA, }
August 10th, 1891
A most distressing accident happened in this
county about week ago, which has been
briefly noticed in your paper, but deserves
more especial mention. Miss Mary Eliza
Iabb, daughter of Dir. Tabb, was about to
descend flight of steps, when the heel OF one
OF her CATERS caught on the stairs, and she
fell. Her head struck in such manner as to
break her neck, and she lived but few mn-
utes.
Gloucester Courthouse. A tailor by the
name of Rose had employed an Irish Journey
man, with whom he had a difficulty about a set.
tiement. The latter left. swearing to be re-
yenged, and went to Aylett's, in King William
county. where he worked until he obtained
some money, and then returned on foot to
Gloucester. Walking into Roses shop, he
asked II he was ready to settle. Rose replied
supposed for pistol. The Irishman seeing
this fell upon him with cudgel and belabor-
ed him soundly. Rose took to flight, the Irish
man after him, the first calling for help, and
the latter continuing to use his cudgel unt til
the gathering crowd saw Rose fail to the
ground, apparently lifeless. Physicians were
called, and after a long time respiration re-
turned, and he is now recovering During
the excitement the Irishman walked quietly
away, no one molesting him, and possibly may
be now on his way To be revenged on some
other tailor. Hewas armed with a stick re-
volyer and bowie-knile.

int the course Of trHe lore does not always
run sfnootbe, was abundantly proved by lit
tie affair in this city yesterday morning. On
Thursday afternoon last, Miss O. and Mr. T..
or wilmington, FIuyanna county, having de-
termIned tosunite their destines, and not be-
ing able to gain the consent of the young lady's
papa to the union, stepped into the canal
packet-boat, on it's way to this city, with the
intention of visiting sister State and having
the ceremony performed. Attended by rfew
friends, the happy pair glided down the canal,
all Joyous at the prospect of their speedy
union, never dreaming that they were to be
interrupted until their greatest wish was
consumilated. After they had left home some
KIND friend gave the old gentleman informa-
tion that his daughter had eloped and with
every disposition to break off the match, he
mounted his riding horse repaired to the near
est railroad station, and taking the first train,
reached Richm Dnd in advance of the fugitives.
TO make assurance doubly sure, the old gem
tleman secured the services of officer Morris.
and hurrying TO the packet landing, reached
there just in time to a. the YarfsSs step inte
carriage. The officer imme dfateiy ordered the
driver to stop, when friend drew a pistol
and ordered the Jehu to proceed. but dreading
the strong arm of Justice more than powder
and lead, the driver tghtened his reins, and
the armed gentleman was required to deliver
his shooting-irons into the hands of the law,
which he did. The father was then told to
take possession Of his daughter, and he at
tempted to do so, but the young lady declined
accompanying him, declaring that she would
rather die than return 10 her home. Finding
that an excited crowd was gathering, the par
ties, including father and officer, repaired TO
the Columbian Hotel, where the matter was
talked over, and the old gentleman finally in
duced to give his consent, the young people
agreeing TO postpone the nuptials until the
mother of the bride could be sent for to wit
ness the ceremony. All the parties are highly
respectable-the young lady is but sweet six.
teen, and as beautiful as a picture, and the
bridegroom wealthy and accomplished.
