A Happy Reunion.

Wednesday, of last week, at the Homestead
east of st. Carsville, for the first time in fif-
teen years brought around a most pleasant re-
union of the family of John Stewart. The
family is composed of the father, seventy
years of age, and mother, aged sixty-three,
and seven children-four boys and three girls
and their children; three sons-in-law, DR.. D.
r. johnson of Ossiout, Egypt, husband of
Maggie j.; Rev. n. E. Wade of Allegheny,
Pa, husband of Annie R.; and j. NJ. Miller.
Esq, of Cannonsburg, Pa, husband of Mamie
B.; two -law-Mary j., wife of
John E., and daughter of {. Hinkle, ESQ.,,
and Katie, wife of ]. A, and daughter of Dr.
j. B. Johnston. The descendants of this
household are numerous, and so completely
have the covenanted promises and blessings
been fulfilled that no one, in all the large and
multiplied families, has brought any kind of
reproach upon the name which he bears, but
on the contrary all of them have reflected honor
upon their parentage. Three of the SONS and
two of the sons in-law served with honor in
the Union army in terms of from three months
TO five years. DR.. Johnston and wife have
been missionaries to Egypt for the past eight
years, and soon return to their field of labor
OF the boys John Z. and ]. A. are prosperous
farmers located three miles east of St. Clars-
vile. Rev. X. Il. is pastor of congregation
near Pittsburgh, Pa, and d. c. for the past
three years has been engaged in the Banking
business at Red Oak, Iowa. Besides the i'm
mediate family there were also present John
b. Stewart, wife and son, of Springfield, Ohio,
and Matte Bell, sister of Mrs John Stewart
The gathering of this family to the old roof
tree, was like the gathering of the tribes of
Israel to the Temple. They come gladly, full
OF Joy and radiant with expectation, knowing
that hearty welcome awaits them. All Of
them gathered around the family board laden
with choice edibles, and the day was spen.
amidst continuous social intercourse. and re-
ligiOus exercises
On the next day the entire party visited the
old homestead near Wheeling Valley, now the
residence of VIM. r. McCune, where all of
the children were born, and spent the day in
greetings, congratulations, innocent amuse-
ments and in visiting their old friends, Grand
mother Robinson, w. E. Dysart and Thomas
Duff, and in the evening dispersed, bearing
with them the most pleasant memories of the
occasion and wishing long continued life and
all temporal and spiritual blessings for Mr..
and Mrs. Stewart. "Loi children are an her.
itage of the Lord," Gas arrows are in the
hands of mighty man, so are the children of
his youth.
John Stewart was born near Cadiz, seventy
years ago, on what is now the johnson Craig
farm, and in 1910 his father removed to the
place near East Richland, now known as the
Morrison Nursery" since which time Mr..
Stewart has been a resident and one of the
staunchest citizens of Belmont county; he has
been subscriber to the CHRONICLE ever since
it was established. May this family live to
enjoy many such reunions and at last ioin
each other on the shores of the Beautiful
River

The worst apprehensions of the friends of
of George Osborne, who left the house of
John Delaney, where he was boarding, on
the nth inst reference to whose loss was
made last week, was realized. On We'd
day, the 21st, two corps of seachers, consisting
of about twenty men each, were organized.
and assembled at the house of John Delaney.
from whence the unfortunate man went out
eleven days previous. From that point each
party took different directions, and each de-
ployed so as to make thorough search. The
column which went in the direction of Cen
treville, came upon his trail, near Isaac
Fitch's, about one-half mile from the starting
point. About II o'clock on the Sunday he
left Delaney's, he was seen short distance
from the house of Fitch, coming towards if.
but on seeing one of the family he suddenly
turned his direction towards George Aults.
The party took the direction, and passed on to
the farm of Jacob Fitch, and over the ground
where subsequently the body was found. A
clue to the whereabouts of the body was Civ
en- by little boy, who in passing through
meadow day or two before, had his attention
attracted by very offensive stencil; he rela-
i ted the circumstance to some of the party.
when that locality was examined, and the bo-
dy was found in the edge of wheat field,
about one-quarter mile northeast of Centre
vile, and near Fitch's house, in a state of de-
composition, and could only be recognized by
the crippled hand of the deceased. Appear
ances indicated that he had passed through
the wheat, ind was in the act of getting over
the fence, and had fallen back, and died
without struggle. The party was called in
by means of signals, and with considerable
difficulty the remains were placed in q coffin,
and brought to this place and inferred. This
is very sad afiliction to an aged mother and
brothers and sisters, who have the sympathy
of the community.
In this connection we are requested to state
that the relatives of the decd extend their
most sincere aud heartfelt thanks to the gen.
tlemen who so kindly volunteered their ser.
lvices to search for the body.

OBITUARY,

About three weeks ago Mr.. Henry Carter,
of Carter Brothers, corner of Market street
and Fifth avenue, left the city to go home to
Belmont. Ohio, where his mother resides. He
had been in failing health for some time, and
it was thought by his friends that rest at home
would soon restore him to health. A week
ago he wrote to his brother, Mr.. ID. Carter,
that he was getting better and expected to re-
turn soon. A telegram was received by the
elder brother that Henry died Thursday morn
ing, and thus another victim at the promising
age of twenty three is added to the long list
claimed by consumption. Deceased was a
young man of good qualities of head and
heart, possessing the confidence of all who
knew him. He was honest. sober, industrious
and intelligent, and his loss will be sincerely
deplored by the many who valued his ac-
quaintance. 1t is but ore year since his father
died. From Pittsburgh Ex.

JOY is apt to follow the footsteps of sorrow.
With the most profound sorrow, on next Sat-
urday, we will be compelled to take farewell
leave of the popular omnibus line and fixtures
of our friend and fellow townsman, VIM. S.
Campbell May said proprietor, in the JOY
of his solitude, rest from his labors during the
remainder of his natural life, and sleep on
beds of sweetest roses, and the steeds that
have so long and so gracefully propelled the
wheels of his chariots, bask in richest clover.
Close following this separation, will follow
our greatest of National Holidays, the Fourth
of July. We hope by that time we will all be
able to shake from our shoulders the draperies
OF mourning, and have fun enough to be re.
menlbered hundred wears.
