IT'S THE. TRUTH THAT HURTS.

l
tors called and told him they
would not DO hard on him, seeing
that he was doing his best, and he
might have his own time about
paying his debts and clearing his
farm of the mortgage.
The fall came, and the farm
yielded an abundance of golden
corn and fruit; such crops, indeed,
as it had never produced before,
and Harry found himself beginning
to drift along with the tido of pros
perity. .
And Nettic Ray had begun to
live her young girlhood over again,
as it were, under her fathers roof;
but, somehow, it was not like the
happy, joyous girlhood Of memory
1t was sober and quiet now, and
Nettic fell into trains of musing,
and every now and then passed a
certain sad thought through her
mindIT7sho was neither maid nor
wife. liof Cd r
She avoided the vicinity of her
late home, nor had she once seen
Harry since the separation; but
she had heard Of him occasionally,
and knew that he was a changed
man. Still, this knowledge brought
her but a melancholy satisfaction.
The reform had come too late-too
late! There was a wide gulf be-
tween them now.
But one evening in the golden
October, Nettic found herself
rather obliged to pass Harry's
farm. 1t lay between her fathers
house and the village, but she had
heretofore taken Il round about
road in going and returning from
the village. On the evening in
question, however, she had been
detained in the villagc,unconscious-
ly, till it was nearly dark, and she
determined to hazard the nearest
road home. 1t would be fully dark
when she would pass his house,
and the chances were that he
would not see her. She would not
have him to SEQ her for tho world !
When she arrived opposite to the
house, she perceived that there was
Il light in the little sitting room
Her first impulse was to hurry BY.
but some more powerful influence
prompted her to stop. She did so,
and stood timidly at the othor side
of the road, gazing longingly at the
house that had been 4 home for
hcr-frst of happiness, then of
misery. By and by, sho felt an
irresistible ycarning TO look at
the room once more. lie was
evidently within, and there was
no danger that he would SEQ her.
So she walked hurridly across the
road, opened the gate softly, and
stepped into the lawn. Another
moment, and she was at the win
dow, looking in.. What singular
behavior! but she could not help
it.
The little room was as neat as
when she herself had watched over
it. A cheerful fire burned in the
gratc, althoughit was not very cold,

Mysterious Disappearance.

Mr.. William Plat, son Of Mr.. Plat of this city
\ young farmer, living in the town of Farm
Ridge about two and a half miles southwest Of
Grand Ridge, has mysteriously disappeared. On
Wednesday morning, Sept. 18th, he returned
from the farm of his wile's uncle Mr.. Holman,
where he had been working the day before, and
told his wife he was going down to Deer Park to
collect some money due him from Mr.. West;
and having changed his clothes, went away, his
wife not noticing particularly which way he went
since when he has not been seen or heard from.
That night as he did not return, a search was
m ade without result, and next day some 40 or %
of the neighbors turned out and searched the
country high and low, but were unable to find
any trace OF him. He had told his wife he would
go ON horseback, but did not the bride lie had
IN ade being found on the saddle in the stable.
His affairs were all straight; his domestic re-
latons had always been pleasant; was sober,
hard.working man; and on the morning in ques-
ton seemed in unusually good spirits. But he
had been sick for long time, and had been una
BILE to work for part Of the season. He had all
but concluded bargain with a neighhor to sell
his farm and go to Colorado, where he has two
brothers, and where he thought his health would
be improved But he had not, so far as is known,
obtained any money from any source at that date :;
had none in his pocket when he left home, nor
did he call at Mr.. Vests for that due him there.
1t is thought by his physician that his disease
NAV have affected his brain and that he has wan.
dered off in a fit of insanity.
His friends, Of course, are greatly alarmed
about him, and his wife is much broken down
with grief and anxiety; so that any information
Of him will be most thankfully received.

what part we are not advised. He graduated at
the General Theological Seminary in New York
City in about 1874 and afterwards spent year
or two in missionary work in that city. He found
what must have been about his first parish at
New Hartford, near Utica, n. Y, where he
preached several years and was married to Miss
Sarah NJ, daughter Of Spencer Stafford, Esq,
From New Hartford he accepted a call to Galena,
H., and after preaching there between seven and
eight years accepted a call to Christ Church, OF
tawa, of which he filed the position OF rector
very acceptably for about ~ years and then re-
signed to accept the charge of Jubilee College,
near Peoria, position in which, like Bishop
Chase and other good men before him, he had
the privilege of doing much hard, honest, poorly
remunerated work, with few satisfactory results.
After leaving Jubilee he preached several years
at Wyoming and thence, five or six years ago,
accepted the rectorship at Genesec, H., which he
held until his death.
Mr. Benedict was a man of thorough educa.
ton, and a devoted and sterling Christian minis
ter. Though not eloquent as preacher, his
thorough conviction and earnestness made him
more effective in his pulpit labors than many of
much greater pretensions to eloqucnce. He was
profoundly convinced of the truth of the Christ
ian doctrine as he understood it, and in that re-
gard at least won the respect OF all for his hon
esty and earnestness.
The people Of Ottawa, among whom he still re-
tanned many warm personal friends, were rejoic-
ing in the prospect of his soon becoming one OF
our citizens, as he was understood lately to have
purchased home here, intending to move here
about the first of October, ceasing, on account of
failing health, from his regular clerical labors
and devoting himself as his infrmlties would
permit, to missionary work in this vicinity. We
are not advised whether TIE plan of removing to
Ottawa will be carried out by his family. He
leaves a wife and two children.
His body will be brought to Ottawa for burial,
and is expected to arrive by the l2S5 train to-day
The funeral services will therefore commence at
the church at about l o'clock. The TT. Rev
Bishop Spauldng OF the Quincy diocese, which
includes Gcneseo, will accompany his remains
to Ottawa and conduct the funeral services.
