FREEDOM, HIS, July 25th, 1873.
DIED-On the morning of Friday, July 18th,
1878, of bilious fever at the residence OF her
uncle, Robert Lucas, Esq, in the town OF Free
dom, Illinois, Miss Sarah J. Kelly, in the 18th
year of her age.
When last wrote communication to your
paper noticed the illness of Robert Lucas,
Esq, who | am happy to be able to state is
still improving. At the time of my last writ
ing the young lady whose death is announced
above was i'll, but it was hoped that IN few
davs she would quite recover. But, alas! these
expectations haye been sadly disappointed
Notwithstanding that everything medical skill
and attention and the kindness of loving friends
could do was done on her behalf.
The deceased was a member of the Metho-
dist church and had been but three months
out from her native country, Castle Caulheld,
in the county of Tyrone, Ireland. Yet even In
that short time she had endeared herself to all
who had had any intercourse with her; her re-
firing and modest department, her gentleness
of disposition, and her Christian character had
won for her the esteem of those who knew her
and could appreciate these qualities. As she
was lying upon her bed of death, noticing
tears standing in the eyes of her aunt, VIM
Lucas, while sitting by her bedside she said,
with her arms about the neck of her relative,
Weep not for me- l weep not for myself. l
am going to be with the Lord" And to the
writer, in response to the inquiry, do you
find the Lord with you" she replied, Yes, .,
YES the Lord has been with me ever since
came to this house" Utterances of similar
import were constantly escaping her lips our
inc the latter week of her illness. Verify, IN
her experience were realized the expectations OF
the Psalmist while contemplating his own de
porture when he wrote Though l walk
through the valley of The shadow OF DEATH
will fear no evil for Thou art with me"
On saturday afternoon, July 2Oth' her re
mains were laid away to rest in the cemetery
in Harding and close by the side Of those oil

One day recently man ri shed into the Of
fee of a well-known dentist, dropped into
chair and begged to have certain tooth eX.
amined, and, if necessary, extracted. The
dentist eisurely examined it, found that 1t had
been filled at one time and that the filling had
partly come out. -,
whoever did that made botch of it, said
the dentist
II don't know" said the sufferer, 1T was
done in Brooklyn, my home"
"Ah, from Brooklyn? Well, | must say
you've got some frauds there-two pretty big
ones
and who are they" inquired the Brooklyn
man. beginning to forget his pain in his rising
interest c, II
"Why, Henry Ward Beecher for one, and /.
Dewitt Talmage for another" and out came
that tooth. ,,.,.s, %,
And as he paid the fee, he laid card on the
table and walked out.
And then the dentist picked up the card and
read ON il, IT. Dewitt Talmage, Brooklyn
and then went to the door and gazed after the
patisnt as long as he was in sight and then went
n the barber and had his mustache shaved on
and his hair dyed.

At the regular meeting Of the Red Ribbon
Club of Freedom held on last Tuesday eve

reference to this, the first loss by death of any
of its members, with not one dissenting voice
WHEREAS, BY q mysterious providence
Miss Sarah j. Kelly, II member of our Red
Ribbon Club has been removed from our
midst by death on the 10Th instant and
WHEREAS the decease of the above is the
first that has occurred within the circle of our
membership since the organization Of the club,
and further
WHEREAS our departed Sister having but
recently come upon trans Atlantic shores,
vet one of her first actions in public view was
10 identify herself with the temperance work,
thus manifesting that its interests were dear to
her heart, though 4 stranger among us, there
fore be it
Res0lred That while acknowledging the
right of the Infinite Father "to do what he will
with his own" we most heartily sympathize
with the parents, brothers, sisters and friends
of the departed in the loss they have sustained,
and to whom at the passage Of this resolution
her death is unknown, and with her relatives
in this vicinity who did everything possible
to be done for her recovery.
Resolced, That copy of these preambles
and resolutions be forwarded to her trans-At-
lantc friends, also to those OF her adopted
home, with the prayer that the "Giver of all
Grace" may sustain them in their deep atflic-

Postal Card Troubles.

Postal cards are very handy to use and
withal a great convenience, but the
chances that one of them will fail to reach
its destination are much greater than In
the case of letter. This is not because
of any fault on the part of the depart
ment. but the result of carelessness on
the part OF the sender. There being no
privacy TO the cards, and the messages
they bear being generally of minor i'm
portance. leads the postoffice officials to
treat them with little consideration when
once they go astrsy. Bushels of them
are burnt every month in this city" said
a clerk in the Boston postoffice, recently.
" We make no effort to return taem to
senders, but simply throw them aside"
The slips which will consign postal
card to the lin DO of the unredeemed are
many. Anything Except stamp stuck
to either side; failure to put the address
on the eide designated for it, and the
writing of anything except the address
on the stamped side, are among them. A
good plan is to first address the card and
then write the message. Large numbers
of cards are daily received at the various
Offices with no written or printed address
IN the proper place.
