which were received with applause:
Brothers of our mystic rite,
We greet each one, we hail you all,
Assembled in our Lodge tonight,
"Thanks for your friendly call"
Not sedate, sad, grim or demure,
In robes of darkest hue,
But in vestnres bright and pure,
With open hands we welcome you.
And now may no consuming care, ,
Enslave our minds while here we stay,
But free untrameled as the air,
Well pass the merry hours away.
Here may Friendship oft appear,
With Truth aud Love companions
bright,
And JOY and mirth be also near,
And lend to evenings hours delight.
Now, brothers Of our my site rite,
We great each one, we hail you all,
Assembled in our hall this night,
We thank you for your friendly call.
After the lodge closed the party
were escorted to the Central House,
where a repast, consisting of oysters
with all the ct ceteras awaited them.
The supper was enjoyed by all, and
the Pleasantville brethren departed

tending a warm invitation TO the Tio.

Death of William Hunter.

Last week we announced that the
news had come to town that Mr.. VIM.
Hunter, one Of the old pioneers of this
section had died few days previously.
We have since learned that he died on
Wednesday morning last aged S5
years and l month.
William Hunter was born in West
morelaud Co., in 1894, and came to
this place with his father Poland Hun
ter, in 1898, aged about years. Him.
self and his sister, afterward Mrs.
Dustin, were suspended in baskets on
each side of pack.hor His father
built log house on tho Island known
as Hunters Island. Until 1912, he
in common with the rest of the family
worked at raising grain and vegetables
for the support Of the family. In
January Of 1912, his brothers con-
cluded that they would enlist for the
war, and started off crossing the river
in canoe, leaving William at home,
deeming him too young to go along
with them. He, however had different
ideas, and after they had gone he
waded the river barefoot at Dustin
Rifle, and caught up with his broth
ers at Titusville. Here old Col. Titus
noticing his bare and bruised feet.
made him pair of moccasins, and he
joined his brothers on their tramp to
Erie, where all entered the service,
and remained until the war closed.
He received couple Of land warrants
from the Government for his services.
He made An application for pension,
and was in a fair way Of getting it
when he was taken sick. TIe and his
brother David built the Hunter mill,
opposite this place, the first grist mill
on the river between Franklin and
Warren. He was well l-known as a
pilot and waterman along the river,
in fact, was one of the first pilots on
the river. He was the father of six
teen children, five of whom are dead.
OF the eleven who are living, ten were
at the bedside of the old veteran when
he died. The deceased was a mem
Der of the M. Z. Church, and died in
the faith, confident Of his reward. The
church in this place always had a
warm place in his affections, he having
given $3.50 toward the erection of the
church, and $50 to the building of the
stone wall in front Of the lot After
tho death of his wife, Sarah Range
Hunter, be had a monument erected
for her and himself, with simply the
date of his death left vacant. He was
the last of his family, all his brothers
and sisters dying before him. Tones
ia was his residence until 1865, when
he sold out, aud removed to Erie
County, near Mill Village. Geo. S.
Hunter, his son, informs US that he
sold some of his fathers lands for
$1,000 per acre. He left quite prop
erty, which is to be disposed of in ac-
cordance with a will which he had
drawn up some time previous to his
death. His many old friends and ac-
quaintanceS will regret to hear of his
death. His history is part of the his.
terry of this section, and his memory
will live while Tionesta has name.
