The following resolutions of respect to the
memory of the late Rufus E. Wood, were pass
ed by the Society for Prevention of Cruelty to
Animals yesterday afternoon:
Whereas, under Divine Providence death has
taken from US one of our most Interested and
useful members, who was also Director OF
this Society, Rufus E. Wood, Esq.,,
Resolved That by this event we have sustain
ed the loss of one whose interest in our work
of humanity was equalled only by the modesty
and true manliness of his character; a man of
real benevolence and generosity; who by his
example has taught us all to be more in earnest
in doing good and less thoughtful of self and
to whom this Society owes much of its ability
to effect the purposes for which it was organic
ed.
ResolUed. That these resolutions be spread
upon our records and published in the papers
of the city, as the tribute of this society to his
most worthy memory and an expression OF our
sorrow at being called upon to part with him.

A Raymond School.

Mr.. Editor: Our school at North Raymond,
Maine, has been splendid success. Mr.. A. e.
Cobb, son of Dr. Cobb, Webb's Mills, Casco,
teacher. Mr.. Cobb has devoted himself to his
profession with an enthusiasm and success
never equaled in these parts He has given us
an exceedingly and highly satisfactory school,
the richest and most progressive we have ever
had,-all the scholars making rapid advance
ment and esteemng their teacher highly, while
many of the pupils almost worship him. In
order to show the interest the pupils have felt
this winter and the marked esteem for their
teacher we feel it our duty to speak of former
schools. When the district numbered 80 or 40
pupils more than at the present time, usually
at the commencement of our winter schools the
scholars for the first few days nearly all turn
out; then sudden-then gradual falling off,
until there is an average attendance of not
more than Is pupils, district formerly number
| ing 126, at present only 30. Mr.. Cobb had an
average attendance of 40 pupils, notwithstand-
| ing our severe cold winter. and the distance be-
ing nearly two miles that over one-third of the
pupils travel We never had school where
the scholars manifested such great interest and
attended with such marked regularity as have
| they this winter.
Mr.. Cobb is an estimable young man, not yet
one and twenty. He commands the love of all
| his pupils, his associates in teaching and the
| community at large. He has left his impres-
sion on the minds and hearts of many, who
know they are indebted for faithful in ,truction,
wise counsel and pure and lovely example.
Besides his excelences as teacher, Mr..
Cobb has many personal and social qualities,
| which, with his perfect freedom from egotism
| attracts and gains the friendship OF all who
| meet him. His gentlemanly department, his
candor, his great regard for truth, his purity
these and his many other virtues, have so won
the love of all in this locality that we lament
his departure for his pleasant home in Casco,
while we heartily wish him long and happy
life. G.
