two weeks earlier than ordinary cotton,
and not shedding its bolls in any kind OF

down to the Chattooga River at an angle

tains from Fear and ExPosare.
The White Mountain Echo tells the
following story: "About two o'clock
on the afternoon cf September 13, 1855,
q gentleman accompanied by his daugh-
ter and niece, the latter the daughter of
Hon. E. E. Bourne, of Kennebunk, Ne,
started without guide from the Glen
House for pedestrian excursion to the
summit of Mt. Washington. The car
riage road was then in course of con-
struction, and completed about half way
UP the mountain. But, to quote from
Mr.. Sweetser's narrative, when the
party reached tie Hallway House, the
mountain above was seen to be wrapped
in dense cloud, through which strong
winds blew with unfailing steadihess.
The climbers pressed on into the yellow
twilight ahead, and followed the trail
which they fondly hoped would lead
them to the hospitable Summit House
above. They had not gone far when
they lost the path and were left to wan
der over the rugged wastes, chilled to
the heart by rsvenous icy winds, cut and
worn out by the sharp rocks and the
skeleton trees, and, above all. overpow-
cred by the nameless dread which seizes
upon poor humanity when confronted
by dangers of an unusual and mysterious
character.
'''The Inflated pilgrims at last
reached the base of the ultimate peak,
and assembled it part way. Here the
darkness grew deeper and the gale more
icy, until at last it seemed impossible to
go farther; and one of the ladies fell
down in utter and absolute exhaustion.
The leader of the party built wall OF
stones between her and the blast, and
then sat down with his daughter to
await her revival. But the night all
was deadly, with its burden of frost
and the rocks were cold and pitiless
Lizzie Bourne died at 10 O'Clock, and
amid the terrors of the darkness and the
storm, her kinstolk held CHASTITY vigil
until morning. 1t was then discovered
that they were SO close to the Summit
House that few more minutes of active
climbing would have placed them within
it's sheltering walls, where light and
warmth and nourishment awaited theil
arrival.
