DEATH OF mis-. HANNAH rENNrionE, Ao

DEATH OF MRS. HANNAH FENNIMoRE, AoEt' 1q8.
Mrs. Hannah Fenniniore, probably the oldest
person in the State of Delaware at the time Of
her death, departed this life on the 18th irst. at
the residence of her youngest son Matthew Big
ger, at the wonderful age Of one hundred and
eight years, eight months and five days.
From the best information attainable, she was
born Dec. 18th, 1861, in New Jersey-was mar
ried at Sandtown, at the age Of twenty-one, to
Matthew Bigger, young revolutionary soldier,
by whom she had eleven children, five of
whom survived her; the youngest being sixty
two
So long as she could CONVERSE which was till
within n few months, she would relate incidents
of the revolution and Of Washington, who was
often at the house where she was raised.
Her life has been one Of toll, very great, until
within the last fow years, when SHE has been
kindly cared for by her son and treated as q
mother by his amiable wife.
She retained her faculties till within a short
period of her death.
For great many years she has been mem
Der OF the Methodist church. When asked OF
Washington and Lafayette she spoke with ami
nation When asked ii she knew the Divine
Jesus her countenance beamed with enthusiasm
| as she replied " o, yes He is my only hope and
trust-I have known Him more than sixty
years"
Her manner of life was peculiar in nothing
| except great industry temperance, and energy.
Her end was a sort of fading away from the
scenes she had so long Witnessed. SIGMA.

Special Policeman Wingate, of this city, hear
ing of the arrival in town of two persons whom
he suspected of stealing the horse and carnage
from Brandywine Summit Camp Meeting, traced
them until he found that in company with the
mother of one of them they had proceeded out
the Wilmington and Christiana turnpike towards
their home near 0gletown. He came up with
them between Newport and Stanton and arrested
them both, brought them to this city and placed
them in the Hall cells.
The names of the two were Lewis Mullen and
Charles Timson, both young men, Mullen being
very slender. The wagon found by officers
Sparks and Magee, near Hares Corner belonged
to Timson and on Saturday morning he stopped
at the City Hall and inquired about it, wishing
to take it home
Timson in conversation with his sister and
officer Wingate stated that he stole the team anu
Mullen was entirely innocent:
The horse and carriage stolen belonged to a
yolng man named George Handy, living in
Brandywine Hundred. and blanket IN the car

Between five and six o'clock, tins morning,
officer Wingate heard an unusual noise while he
was passing through the Hall yard, and going in
the cell discovered large pile OF dirt lying on
the iloor. and Mullen and boarding house thief
from Philadelphia missing while Timson was
living on bench in the cell pretending to be
asleep His clothes were covered with dirt, anu

TO escape When he was surprised by the officer.
They had dug hole down through the floor
under the foundation and up again, coming TO

light into the cell. The hole was small, not more
than foot wide, and it must have took some
tight squeezing to escape through it.
