A young man brought up to farming in
Maine married an ambitious woman who
lancied they could get living in the city
easier than on farm, and without much
thought concluded, as they were both smart
the husband good penmao, aud the wife
could trim ladies hats, they would 20 tC
Boston; 50 the young man got together what
money he could, and they started for the
city, where they were quite sure ofgetting
situations that would pay liberal salaries,
with light work 4 friend had all but got
place for him as a private watchman
and as for his wife no one who could trim
hats like MS wife would have any trouble
IN getting place IN Boston.
50 they turned their backs on the old
farm and started thither full of hope and
expectation Arriving in the city,as soon
as boarding place had been obtained the
young man applied for the situation OF
private Waterman. 1t had not yet been
given to anyone, but eighty.seyen appli.
cants had applied for it, who were on file
in regular order. His wife spent four days
in going from place to place 10 find u chance
10 trim hats. She found such workwomen
getting from 81 10 90 cents day but for
every one employed an average Of fifty
applicants We're turned away. The young
man had spent several days, il the unsuc-
cessiul attempt to get something to do,
aud As a last resort had gone to shovelling
coal at 4 dollar u day. Fortunately they
had some friends in Boston who loaned
them little money on their good name,
and paying board bill Of ST., over what
they earned, they started for home. Lucki-
ly it was late spring when they returned
from their little trip to the city. The
young man made an arrangement to take
back the old farm, hired a horse to do his
work, and his neighbors turned out and
helped him put 10 some seed The grass
looks finely on his land, his corn and wheat
are growing. the old orchard promises
some fruit, and there is a prospect Of
raising enough to keep them handsomely
through the winter, and some be-
side. They have been to Boston and
returned to the farm, conteuted, says the

Old grandmother Forrsy, who died
early on Sunday morning at tn. For
rev homestead, in the lO4th year Of her
age, was one OF the oldest II not the
Oldest person living in Lancaster coun.
ty. Mrs, Forrey was the grandmother
OF Mr.. John c. Forrey and H. X. Heise;
she was a Miss Seitz and came from
the country below Lancaster, and took
up her residence on the above farm
over 80 years ago, and has since lived
there. About Is years ago the old
lady fell and broke her leg and has
sine then been less active than before
the unfor unate accident; up To that
tim. she had always been in the habit
Of milking the cows and seemed very
anxious TO he about and stirring least
the neigh bors should think her lazy.
Wonder how many Of her much young
-r sisters sril.r from the same fear.
A few days ago Mrs. Forrsy lost her
appe,it. and was generally out Of her
usual good health, spending good
deal Of her time lying down. Yeste- :
day morning she asked to sit up in a
chair. Her attendants lifted her up
and placed her comfortably, as desired.
Shortly ter she fell into gentle sleep
from which she never awOke. The old
clock was worn out and literally run
down. Had she lived until November
II, 1878, she would have celebrated
her one hundred and fourth birthday.
Mrs. Forrey could distinctly remember
the soldiers Of the Revolution as they
mar ched by her fathers home, and
along the old road leading from Ian.
caster to Wright's Ferry.
This road was eouth Of the pike, and
ran through woods nearly the entire
distance. She also fe,ne,nbsrs the war
Of 1912. During the late Centennial
Exposition at Philadelphia the old lady
was often urged by her friends to visit
and see the many wonders upon exhi
bition there. She always very fatty re-
fused to leave home, saving. "You
cannot take me down there for show. y
I She has several children living--one in
Ohio and another daughter in Peters
burg, Lancaster county, who Is ovei
eighty years ofage.
