longed to my company, and as his grave is
isolated and alone no doubt will not be re-
membered by any one to-day" On our re-
turn home we sought out this grave, which
was on the hill side, rising from beautiful

BILE slab marked the spot, bearing the in

his captain had not forgotten him, and Mr..
Pitts says: ''Nothing In my life left such

Arrested for Stealinp.

Joseph Sears was yesterday arrested and
lodged in Jail for stealing $50 from the
house Of Samuel Gibson of Clarendon. The
money belonged to the North Clarendon
Sabbath school and was stolen from the
trunk of Miss Lizzie Gibson, who is treas
urer of the school, on the day of the
funeral of the Tower children, the family all
being absent. The next day Sears, who
was the hired man on Mr.. Gibson's farm,
asked Lizzie If che had lost anything. On
receiving a negative answer he said he had
lost twenty cents and two cigars and he
thought some tramp must have taken
them. The money was soon after missed
and Sears suspected Of taking it as he was
treating the boys in the neighborhooS to
an unusual extent. One day little son of
Edward Nelson, jr., watched Sears ekuk
off down to the Harlem railroad bridge and
told his grandfather that he thought he
had the money hidden there. Saturday
Sears went with party to Castleton and
during his absence Mr.. Nelson searched
around the bridge and found box con-
tanning the money at the bottom of wall.
He covered it up, came to Rutland and had
a warrant made out and Sunday morning
officers Millington and Stearns arrested
