A meeting was held at Plymouth church
yesterday afternoon to consider the resigna-
ton of Mr.. Stiuason, pastor of the church.
The reverend gentleman has of late been
dissatisfied with his salary, and has asked for
a thousand dollar increase, and some of the
sspaying members" have thought that they
could get pastor who could ''draw'' better
if they had to pay 80 high salary, and the
reverend gentleman was advised before he
left for the East, some weeks ago, to resign,
aud this he did Immediately on his return.
Yesterdays meeting was attended by some
200 members and the greatest harmony
prevailed, and to the surprise of outsiders
nothing came up to mar the good feeling.

A NarrOeU EscGpe.

Miss Emma Schermully, daughter of F.
Schermully, had narrow escape from death
by drowning Monday night. Accompanied
by Jules Duel, of the St. Croix Post, she had
started for home at the conclusion of the
play cite Phpnix'' by way of Staples mill,
but finding the road flooded by the heavy
rain they turned back and started up the
railroad track, having to cross the trestle
work on the plank laid for foot passengers.
The water at this point is very deep, and the
plank on which they were walking fully ff-
teen feet above it; The night was very dark,
and they we're compelled to use the utmost
caution. When half way across vivid and
binding flash of lightning dazzled Miss
Schermully, and making misstep, she fell
into the water, uttering piercing scream as
she fell. Realizing her danger, and without
moments hesitation, Mr.. Duel courageous
ly leaped into the water to her assistance.
On coming to the surface he perceived her
by the aid of flash of lightning about
four feet distant, and swimming to
her bade her not to catch hold
of him or she would prevent him from saw
ing her. With admirable GOODNESS she pass
lively submitted herself into his hands.
Swimming with her to a log, he attempted to
assist her on to it, but found it was impos-
sible on account of the log rolling. Seeing
a rope hanging from one of the spiles,
against which was log, he assisted hor to
it, but every time she got on 20 the log it
rolled, throwing her Off After the sixth or
seventh trial they both succeeded in getting
on the log, he eteadying i. by aid of the
rope. Mr.. Duel then began to call for as
sis,ance, and was luckily heard by Joe
Carli and Otto Hospes, who were going
home by the same route. These gentlemen
tried to get boat, but failing in this, got a
rope, with the assistance of which they res
cued the exhausted and thoroughly drencted
couple from their perilous position. The
GOODNESS with which Miss SchermuIly CON
Quoted herself during the half hour she was
in the water, is indeed praiseworthy, while
Mr.. Duel is to be especially commended for
his heroic conduct.
