A Danbury Funeral.

The day Mr.. Ruby across the way was
to be buried, Mrs. Moriaty told her
daughter Clarinda that she guessed she
would attend, as she wasn't feeling very
well, and ride would do her good
She knew there would be several COW
cred carriages furnished at the expense
of the family, and she was equally con-
fident it could be 30 managed that she
would occupy portion of one OF them.
She was among the first at the house,
and occupied a prominent position. AS
the other friends arrived she took oc-
casion to recall "reminiscences OF the
late Ruby that brought tears to their
eyes, and when the services were over,
as the first coach drove up for its load,
the distress of Mrs. Moriaty at the
death of Mr.. Ruby was so marked as
to excite the liveliest sympathy. Then
the second coach came up. Mrs. Mo-
riaty had got down to the gate by this
time, and as the door of the second
coach was opened, Snd call made for
the occupants, it seemed extremely
doubtful If she could hold up another
instant. She leaned against the post,
and stared into the coach, and over its
rich upholstsring, and said the late Ru'
by seemed more like son to her than o
neighbor. Whereupon the usher
looked appropriately sad, and called up
the third and last coach. This had yel-
low cushions and pink straps, and Mrs.
Moriaty didn't hesitate to protest that
in the death of Mr.. Ruby the commu-
nifty had met loss it was not possible
to recover from, and that she would fol-
low him to his last resting-place if she
had to do il on her knees, and would
feel grateful for the opportunity. Then
the third and last coach filled and drove
off to take its place in the line, and
Mrs. Moriaty dried her tears, choked
back the sorrow of her heart with one
mighty gulp, and strobe into her own
house. shutting the. front door without
the aid of the knob. She told Clarinda
that it was the scaliest affair she ever
went to, and had it not been for the
body there would have been no funeral
at all

A Noble Woman.

"She is o saint she is heroine|
This exclamation was made respecting
o lady, Mrs. -, resident in Nash
vile during the gloomy days OF June,
when large numbers of persons little
way beyond her residence were sick
and dying of cholera. The woman,
moved by the goodness and sustained
by the heroism of her noble heart,
devoted her days and nights to the
sick, the dying, and the dead. She
went in the darkness OF the night, in
the rain and mud, when the air was
loaded with pestilence, to the houses
of the sick. And she went not only to
speak words of cheer, but to do with her
own hands whatever could be done to stay
the progress of the disease, to relieve
the distressed, and to prepare the dead
for decent interment. When told that
she ought not to leave her comfortable
home and family, and expose health.
especially in going to the novels OF ,i
the poor, her reply was: 81 think 1t
would be wrong to neglect the sick and
dead at such time as this" On the
night after the day when so many
deaths occurred in the city we saw this
heroic woman at midnight preparing
corpse for burial. She did the hard
work thoroughly. She washed and
dressed the dead, carried ont the IN.
fected bedding and clothing, disinfected
the room, and quieted the bereaved
children. The world lauds the courage
of great men who risk their lives on the
battlefield; but do not those Nashville
ladies. who, like the one to whom we
now refer, braved the perils OF the pesti'
lence in the performance OF duties tc
the sick, dying, and dead, deserve even
higher need Of praise?

Mrs. Ellen Dunn, wife of John Dunn,
n newly married couple who had lived In
Woodbridge only two or three weeks,
in preparing the MONDAY meal. sought
to hasten the fire by pouring oil upon
it. AS she held the oil can in her hand,
the flames communicated with its con-
tents, and a report like that of gun
attracted her husbands attention. He
rushed into the house and found
his wife enveloped in flames. Every
particle of clothing was burned of her
before the fire could be put out, and
her body was one indistinguishable
mass of charred and blackened flesh.
Death, of course, speedily followed.
