of the trial, and stated that he cared not
for its result, for his trust was in God.
The pastor and several Of his lawyers
shed tears. -"
Mr.. Beecher face was wet with tears
as he closed his talk and there was moi
a dry eye in the house, Mr., Shearmah,
one of the lawyers on one side of the
pulpit, was in tears, and Mr.. Hill, of
the counsel, ,on the Other side was weep
ing. Mr.. Beecher prayed, and there
was sobbing aloud over the. congrega-
ton as tho rich volume OF sorrow
tinged words poured from his lips
Tears rolled down his face, and they
seemed to enter into his voice. His
prayer was: Lord, wo know we can
bear thy dispensations. We only ask
thy will be done"
The trial is not in progress today

The Three HrOiled chickens.

The Wakefield Mass Citizen says
that but few miles from that town Is
u farm, now occupied by the eighth
generation from its settlement. The
farm, owned and occupied by theWinn
family, it says, was originally bought
of the Indians for triiling sum, and
comprised several hundred acres in
the borders ofWoburn and Burlinglon3
Its first occupant, Edward Winn, cmi-
grated from Wales, with Joanna his
wife and probably his son Joseph, and
settled in the place about 1640. Their
first offspring, born there, was named
Increase Winn, and he was the first
child, of European parentage, born in
Woourn. The old huse in which they
lived gave place to new mansion In
1874, which is now standing in excell-
ent order, though more than 140 years
old. Many years ago it served as
country inn for the accommodation of
the travelling public, ,ald inrevolution-
ary days it gave convenient place of
storage for many Inhabitants ofCharles-
town, who fled thither to hide their
valuables when the British troops were
burning and sacking their houses. The
family coat of arms consisted of strip
ed or barred shield, upon which were
displayed three spread eagles, and a
sign with this device hung before the
door in old English style. But either
from the fault of the painter, or from
the resemblance of the device to woll
filled gridiron, the tavern was nick
named the "Three Broiled Chickens" !"
throughout the surrounding country.
The old house was struck by lightning
about twenty-five years since, the
family cat struck dead while lying at
her masters feet, and the kitchen stove
partly melted, but the old mansion
and its occupants escaped without
further damage. In the spacious
kitchen stands the old family clock,
where for nearly century it has
marked the passing hours.
