WILLIAM MERCHANT was born in Berkly coun-
ty, Virginia, June 18th, 1900. He removed from
that county with his parents to Highland county,
Ohio, in 1914; was married to Elizabeth Smith on
May 18th, 1922, and settled in this county. He died
December 9th, 1873, in the 18th year of his age
He was possessed of cheerful spirit, an oblig
ing disposition and manly principle, and by these
made many friends. He nobly stood side by side
with our pioneer fathers, enduring the tolls and
hardships of pioneer life. His marriage was
happy and SO years were spent by them in
happy union. Sod blessed them in their basket and
store For 40 years he held an unbroken eonnec-
ton with the NJ E. Church. He literally sup
ported the church Of his choice in all her interests
and endeavored to train up his children for God
and usefulness. He was than a nominal
Christian having obtained the ''excellency Of the
knowledge of Christi the greatest of all knowl-
edge and the highest of all associations.
The last years of his lifewere years of suffering;
yet he did not ask that this cup might be removed
from him, saying: 81 will bear it cheerfuIly for
the sake of Christ. He will sustain me now. My
hope is in him; my treasure is in heaven" In his
death the community have lost good citizen, his
family afTectionate husband and father, and the
Church devoted me nber. "His children rise up
and call him blessed. K.

DearhOr a Noted Character.
ADOIS.

The Noble County Republican of the 9TH
inst. says: Last week, at his home on
the Little Muskingum, near the small
post town of Bloomfield. Washington
county, there died one of the most noted
characters of this part of Ohio, William
Snively. He located on the Little Mus
kingum over fifty years ago, and took up
one hundred and sixty acres of land, all
of which, with the exception of small
potato patch, is uncleared, and as wild as
when he first located it. A man of great
mechanical genius, he built a forge, and
was noted among the honest class of peo-
pie as splendid blacksmith and gun
maker. But his talents were not entirely
devoted to a legitimate aYocation, for he
in a few years acquired reputation as
one of the most skillful counterfeiters
west of the mountains. He was too
smart to attempt the passage of his spu-
rious money, but his location was known
to every counterfeiter and horse thief in
Ohio and West Virginia, who made his
house and the many secret hiding places
he had scattered around thro' the woods,
a rendezvous to get counterfeit money
and hide stolen goods. OF very miserIy
and ayaricious disposition, he was never
known to spend cent for the commonest
necessaries of life. He has been known
to eata a frugal meal of corn bread and
milk in the morning, and walk to Mari
eta and back, a distance of twenty-five
miles each way, and carry back with him
fifty or hundred pounds of iron, and
without breaking his fast. For the last
| fifteen years he has added largely to his
boarded gains by the illicit distilling of
/ liquor. He died at the age of 85 years,
after an illness of but a few days, and
what is the most narrowing to his rela-
| tiYesand has aroused the curiosity of the
community, is that he went into eternity
without revealing where his boarded
wealth was stored, the lowest estimate Of
which is 500, 900, and up as high as $780,,
600. For many years to come treasure
hunters will be found at the dead hour!
of night digging into the bowels of wha
was once his land, in the remote hope o
securing and enjoying the counterfeitel
miser's ill-gotten wealth.

Hon. Jas. Emmitt addressed a meeting
of stockholders of the S., ]. & P. Ry. at
Jackson on the 18th. The Standard pub
fishes the following report of it:
E'The Chairman said that the object of
the meeting was to give Mr.. Emmitt an
opportunity of making a full statement of
the condition of the road. Mr.. Emmitt
took the stand, and said he intended to
speak at all the principal points along the
road between this time and the 8th day of
January next. Meetings had been held
already, but there had been Interruptions
and denunciations, and nothing definite
had been done. He now proposed to be
heard without interruption, and then
those who differed might answer. Mr..
Emmitt then commenced at the begin
ming, and gave statement of the pro-
gress of the road up to the present time.
| Mr.. Emmitt was listened to with the clos
est attention. He spoke an hour and a
! half, and made some pretty severe allus-
! ions to Mr.. Chapman and Mr.. Fry, who
were present. After he had got through,
Mr.. Chapman asked to be heard, and the
Chairman privately consulted with Mr.
Emmitt, and then announced that this is
Mr.. Emmitt's meeting, and that no oppo-
sition could be made, when Irvine Dun
gan moved to adjourn, which was carried

Hon. Geo. Vending will deliver his
great lecture "a Reply to Ingersoll from
a secular stand point" at Music Hall,
Monday evening, Jan. 6, What the press
says about Mr.. Vending: Chicago Re
publican, ''He had not talked five minutes
before the audience were convinced of two
facts: first that as an orator, Vending
is equal, if not superior to Ingersoll; sec
ond, that his logic and reasoning were
absolutely unanswerable."
The Urbana Citizen and Gazette, Dec.
5th: ''The lecture was surprise to ev-
eryone. Notwithstanding the very COM
| plimentary terms in which the press has
referred to him wherever he has spoken,
Mr.. Wendling's hearers were not pre-
pared for the finished oratory and sound
reasoning to which they listened. He
spoke more than two hours, and during
the entire time did not hesitate for words
and thought"

\ silver man Dollar's Return.

Canton, (o.,) Register.
Some twenty-five years ago, David P.
Texter, residing on the Massillon road,
had in his possession a silver half dollar,
made in the year 1928, and that being his
natal year, he cut his name on it and
thought to retain it as relic. After SOW
eral years, however, he paid it out one
day by mistake, along with some other
money, and for twenty years it took its
course. Last Saturday he sent his little
daughter to AIassillon on an errand. and
upon her return home she gave him some
change, and with it the identical half
dollar with his name cut on it.
The Rev. NJ. P. Gaddis is preparing a
