with patience and christian resig-

services were held in the Baptist

of the 5th chapter of End Cor,

of her mistaken confidence and

Ia, il this road is mIde, may be-
come a point for the establishment
Of a Blast Furnace and Rolling
Mill. Such an idea is far from be-
ing preposteroUs; it is really one
of the probabilities.
All IN all, we shall always thlnk
that the people of the West Side Of
the river arc both blind and dumb
to their interest If they do not push
this matter with all their zeal and
energy.
Some Of our McCoDnelsvIlle friends
may think that this, our advocacy
of road from Malta to Perry Conn
ty, at this jucturc, Is out of place
We think not. 1t is one of the Ger.
tainties that the West side of the
river Is not going to do anything
toward the Eastern OHIO on the
McConnelSVllie side OF The river.
Such being the case, the best thing
the West side car do is to go to
work and push tbs matter through
On that side. The West side is fuls
ly able to bald the road spoken
of, without any assistance from the
NcConneIsville side, and the Nc
Connelsville side is fully able to
raise her proportion of the funds
necessary to grade the Eastern Ohio
east of McConnelsvIl:e.
So, as all we want is q rail road
let both sides of tho river go to
work earnestly, each IN their own
territory.

Cooper preached the sermon and
propoundcd the Constitutional

thens, delivered the charge TO the

these parts were performed ably
and with great interest to the Pres-
bytery, pastor and people.
Rev. G. G. Hart was received IN

pastoral service from tho Church at
Logan was placed in his hands.
Having signified his acceptance Of

While this commute was pre-,

WHIrE-Died IN MGConneisv:lle,
Morgan County, o, Oct. 2Ist,
1871, Mrs. MARY A, consort OF
Mr. G. w. White, and daughter
of Joseph and Sarah PuTphrey,
aged % years, 10 months, and
16 days.
Mrs. White, the subject of this
notice, was born IN Jefferson Co 4,
O., Dec. 9Th, 1917. On the 10Th of
Nov, 1886, being then in the Goth
year of her age, she was united III
marriage 10 Mr.. G. w. White, then
of Rural Dale, O., who survives
her, and is now berett of the loved
companion and friend of his youth.
A lengthy enlogy on the character
of one ahose life was the oxempII-
ficatIon vi so many virtues, would
seem, indeed, entirely superflurus.
Still it would be doing violence 10
truth and morality if, when such a
life was ended, those virtues which
gained ior her so noble a record,
should be allowed to perish with
what of her was mortal. A fitting
encOmium is always appropriate
when those who have been bless =
IEgs 10 society arc removed from
earthly scenes. TO all who enjoyed
an Intimate acquaintance with the
deceased, 1t WAS evident that her
pIcty was of tho most solid kind,
not e%vaporatIng IN talk, nor intru-
ding itself in an ostentatIous pre-
f%ession, but operating in a constant
and exemplary discharge of every
private and social duty. In reia-
ton TO her domestic duties, she
was truly a pattern of diligence;
nor was she unmindful of those
higher obligations which have re-
lation to the preparation of the soul
for the enjoyment of a purer and
higher state of existence. Free
from every kind of display, her re-
ligion was of retired nature, plan
ted by the rivers of water and led
by a secret spring, Its leaves never
wlthered and it brought forth its
fruit IN ITS season. Her faith was
such as purified the heart, and man
Tested itself in a series OF wise and
holy actions. Her hope was an
"anchor of the soul, sure ana stead
fast, entering into that within the
vail" Her illness was %protrscted,
