MINISTER, SCHOOL TEACHER AND BOOK FED

HOUSE.
From gentleman IN this city who was well
acquainted with the man many years ago we
gather the following facts In relation to Lewis
II: IerIill, the circumstances Of whose death
we noticed IN yesterdays GAZETTE:
More than twenty-five years ago, Terrill,
then young man was pastor OF Baptist
Church few miles from New Brunswick n.
}. But from some reason or other his mind
was affected and Ibecame SO erratic that his
congregation was compelled 10 request his re-
slgnation. He then went 10 school teaching.
which he followed for FIVE years, but this pO-
sltlon also, was taken away from him on ac-
count of his eccentric and Oft times violent
disposition.
hlr. Terrill then went into the book peddlng
business, in which he has continued success
fully for number of years. During this
period of his life he exercised the most scru-
pulous economy, spent his nights in the sta
ilOn houses, begged his food wherever he
could do so, and spent not a cent where he
could possibly AVOID It. BY means of his penu-
riousness he was enabled after several years
hard work, tolay by enough to purchase
house and lot in New Brunswick. and to keep
his family in comfortable circumstances. Dur
ing all his life as book peddler he retained
his eccentric habits and preached in his ezra
tic manner whenever he was allowed an OPP
pOItuully. he cQnllnueu 10 tuiV6 III his DllSl-
ness and provided his family with many of
the luxurits as well as all the necessaries of
life. One of his sons was recently success
fully established in the grocery business in
New Brunswick.
Our informant says that If the family are in
Strengthened circumstances now they must
have recently met with tinancia. reverses as
up to about five years ago they were living
in good style.
This ends the career of a remarkable old
man, He has met with the various viclssitudes
of life from the pulpit to the poor house, aud
died at last lonely, sorrowful death

The Benefits Of Odd E fellowship

HOW CLAIM FOR DAMAGES Is SPEEDILY SET
TIED BY THE ACTION OF A LODGE OF ODD
FELLOWS.
In October last James H. Thompson, for.
merly of this city, and and member in good
standing of Asylum Lodge, No 23, |. o. o. +.
fell into trench which was made by the gas
Company in one OF the atreets of Camden, N.
D., IN which city he has for some time past re-
sided. By this fall he received such Injuries
abOut'the back as will disable him for life h and
render him incapable of performing physic
labor.
In May, he brought suit against the Gas
Company, laying his damages at 5000. but
the trial was laid over until the next term of
Court. Since then an official communication
was sent to him from Asylum Lodge, in this
city, to the effect that the Lodge would stand
by him to the last and if necessary employ le-
gal counsel for the prosecution of his case.
This communication had such an effect t.iat
Immediately after its reception became known
the Gas Company offered 10 settle the case by
paying Mr. Thompson $4,000 damages, and
500, for his lawyers fee. These terms he
accepted and so the matter ends.
About two months age, knowing his injuries 10
| be permanent, and regarding himself as a draw.
| back to the Lodge, Thompson wrote letter &c
the Secretary requesting that his name be strick

able action on his part was duly recogniZ cd BY
the Lodge, and by a Enanlmous vote bis name
was ordered 10 lie continued on the benehciai,

SUCCESS BASED UPON MERIT.

It Is subject OF general remark among both
Wholesale and retail druggists. that no mediclne
introduced to the American public has ever gained
such q popularity and met with SO large a sale IN
all parts Of tho land in the same length time as
DR., Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. This can
not depend upon its having been more largely ad-
yertsed than any other medicine, as such not the
case. The correct explanatlon, We think, IS found
in the ia ct that this medicine produces the most
wonde eI ful and perfect of very bad cases oil
bronchial, throat and lung diseases Is undoubtedly
the mo ,t perfect and efficient remedy Tor all kinds
Of coughs that has ever been introduced TO the
