There is some petty stealing going
on around here, such as u few bushels
of corn, a barrel of apples or few

benefit these thieves to learn that

We notice that some of our farm.
ers are very fond Of hunting and
shooting game on the lands of anoth-

land "posted" against hunters, We
think farmers should view this mat,
ter in different light, and not kill
off the fowls of the air that were pla.
ced here for the sole benefit of the
farmer, and then wonder why tits that
man is cursed with such pests as the
potato or chintz bug; besides this we
know of a man who has lost several
head of stock from the gun in the
hands of the thoughtless hunter.

Martin, of Maiden, West Va, Dec. 4th
1878, Andrew Hill, formerly of Hart
ford City, aged As years, 6 months
and 7 days. He leaves wife and
six children, together with many
friends, to mourn their loss. Four of
his children had crossed the river be-
fore him, the others must follow, He
had been member Of the Church for
81 years, and the same arm onwhich
he leaned in life, supported him in
death. | never saw any one better
reconciled to the will of God. The
only thought which seemed 10 trouble
him was that of leaving his family to
the charities Of u cold world. His
funeral services were conducted by
the writer, in Maiden, after which,
his remains were taken to Browns
town, where with sad hearts, we COM
mitted them to the cherries embrace
of the grave, to await the resurrection
morn. May God, who in his wisdom,
has seen fit to call him hence, COM
fort the hearts of the widowed mother,
and fatherless children. And may
they whose hearts have been made
sad by this bereavement, ever trust
Him who 'dricth the mourner's tears"
and at last meet the departed in the
realms of endless glory.

I'M MEmORTAT,

WILLIAM B. KLEINPETER died August &c.
1878. In his death our beloved State lost q gall
liant and devoted son. In oil things identified
with her, and having her interests near at
heart, he was ever amongst the foremost to
offer life and fortune In her Defense The
name of W. B. Kleinpeter figured upon the
list OF Louisiana's earliest volunteers at the
commencement of the late war; and. as faith
full soldier Of Hays Brigade, he did his share
to secure and maintain for that glorious corps
the brilliant reputation which 1t enjoyed. And
during all the recent struggles Of our people
for political emancipation. and notably upon
September Il. 1874. and January 0. 1876 he was
found early at his post, ready to offer his life
for the good cause.
He was descended upon either side, from old
and respectable families of this State, and was
largely and respectfully connected through the
parishes of Baton Rouge, Ibervile and Assem-
sion. His great grandfather, kenpeter came
to Louisiana from Hagarstown, Md, and pur-
chased lands in East Baton Rouge, at q very
early period in the history of this section
while his maternal grandfather, Daigre, emi-
grated to the same locality from France many
years ago.
To his wife and children the deceased proved
a devoted and tender husband and father. Es-
sentlally one Of the most unsefish Of mon, bis
friends found him eager to endure any Just
sacrifice in their behalf while the calls Of
charity found his ear ever open and accessible
his heart sympathetic, and his hand ready and
generous.
The career thatlay before him was great with
| promise Of usefulness and brilliancy; for his
| was q mind naturally vigorous, which had been
| fortified by finished education, and cultivated
| by extended reading. at the same time that his
genial manners had endeared him to large
| and influential circle Of friends
| But while we grieve over his untimely end
| all who loved him receive deep consolation from
| the conviction that he is now reaping the re,
! ward Of truly Christian life and enjoying
! those treasures which We are taught are secure
| from moth and rust. and which have Eternity
as the period of their enjoyment. Pass ing
away after a life of virtue with the consultations
OF our Holy Mother. the Catholic Church, We
| feel that he now indeed rests in peace.
