Last Saturday afternoon Judge Pike
was considered quite low, still it was con-
fidcntly expected that he would live
through the night, but at a. quarter of s
o'clock he suddenly commenced sinking,
and at eight o'clock was dead. An au-
topsy on Monday, attended by Doctors
Woodward, Allen, Smith and Morgan,
showed the formation of the tumor to be
precisely like the description given by the
| physicians both in the earlier and later
stages of his sickness. Another and an
ADLER pen will doubtless furnish for the
county and other state papers, fitting
notice of Judge Pixies private and public
life. Funeral Tuesday at the Congrega-
tional church, Rev. C. A. Huntington of

before to accompany some neighbors to a
friends to make an evenings visit, and ac-
cordinglY they had provided company for
their mother at home during the evening.
| About seven O'clock the party assembled
at Geo. Phillips and thence proceeded to
Mr.. Wiswell's. Their knock was answer
ed by Mrs. Wiswell, who, with astonshed
looks, received the invaders, But soon
recovering her selfpossession she with
Mr.. Wiswell welcomed them with accus-

spent in social conversation the party
were called to order and the host and host

Wiswell then invited the company to take
tea with her, at some future time and said
the table should be spread with the tea

music and social talk. Apples were

close of the regular Wednesday evening
prayer meetings about 30 of their friends
including Messrs. Huntington and Rat
tray, interrupted their meditations. 1t
was quiet cheerful gathering-nos a
crowd-ofpersons drawn there by feelings
of respect sympathy and friendship. The
conversation was both grave and gay.
The living presence of their sprightly
daughters, the frequent mention of the
name of the temporarily absent one, Miss
Mary, the portrait ofthe dead-living-boy
drowned at 81, showed the lights and
shadows of their nuptial life. At the be-

MIR. Huntington formally presented the
congratulations of these friends present,
and in addition, a CSoze4l triple-plate silver

the gathering were a surprise. After

serious, entertaining all present, Mr..

most pleasant, both to those who received
