well attended and jolly good time had
all around. A handsome sum was realised
which will be forwarded to the Parnell
Relief Fund.
Mr.. George Lowery, young man we'll
known here, died yesterday morning at
his home on Harris street near Putnam.
His death was the result of kick he re-
ceived in the head from horse several
years ago, and from which he never re-
covered. Drs. Orr, of Cincinnati, and Ben
nett Of this city, held post-mortem yes
tefday and were greatly astonished that
the young man could have possibly lived
as long as he did. Several pieces of the
skull were found EMBEDDED fully three-quar.
ters of an inch in the brain.
A family consisting of six persons-the
father, Isaac Hogeland, his wife and four
children-arrived here yesterday afternoon
from Louisville, they having walked the
entire distance. Their condition was most
pitiable, they being actually on the verge
Of starvation. During the journey
between this city and Louisville one
OF the children, little girl OF
eight years, died from exposure and the
only attendants at the funeral were the
father, mother and three little sisters and
brother. When the family reached Front
and Columbia streets last evening they sat
down to rest, thoroughly exhausted from
hunger and cold. Mrs. JAS L. Williamson
invited them in and provided good warm
meal after which they took up their march,
their destination being Clinton County,
Ohio where they have relatives.
Mr.. George Dudley Guy, an old and we'll
known resident of the Highlands. created
quite a furry of excitement mere this morn
ing. On arriving in town he visited the
County Clerks Office and while there mis-
placed some documents. He at once &C.
cused Clerk Thomas Jones of stealing them,
and shortly afterwards declared that Mr..
Hub. Helm, who was present, got
away with them, and was about
to call in the police, when
he found them in his coat-pocket His
next exploit was at the First National
Bank, where he drew $500 to pay off some
claim. On placing the roll of money In his
pocket he declared that those about him
were watching an opportunity to rob him,
and he slammed the large door of the bank
shut and declared that no one should either
come in or 60 out. He finally became
so boisterous that Chief Lock had to be
called, who took him to the Station-house
but was shortly after released. His strange
action could not be accounted for other
than that ne became temporarily insane, as
he does not taste liquor of any kind, nor
has he ever acted in so strange a manner
before. Mr.. Guy is well-to-do farmer of
the Highlands and is highly respected.
DEATH OF HENRY TIMBERLAKE-The an
nouncement of the death OF this we'll
known citizen will mot be much of a sur
prise to the majority of our residents here
who understood his very precarious con-
dition for several days past. He was taken
very i'll Saturday night last, when DIR. Lock
was called in, who at once pronounced his
case as hopeless During Sunday afternoon
he rallied somewhat and q slight
improvement was noticed until
yesterday morning when he again grew
worse, and shortly before IL O'clock his
speech left him. He continued to grow
worse until twenty minutes before this
morning. when he expired. The circum-
stances connected with his last few days
on earth were most touching, and called
for the utmost sympathy. Once a prince
among merchants and always a true ana
gentle husband and kind father and last
ing friend to his fellows, but in his
last hours he is deserted by even those who
should be nearest and dearest to him on
earth, and allowed to pass away witoout
the comforts which long life of useful
ness and prosperity justly entitled him to.
Mr.. Timberlake was born in Kenton
County about ten miles south of Coving-
ton, and was at the time of his death about
forty-nine years of age. At the age Of
twenty-five he married Miss Susan Tib-
bats, daughter of John w. Tbbatts, de-
ceased, of this city, and he has resided here

days ago. MIR. Timberlake was for
many years connected with the firm
of Casey, Chalfant & Co., wholesale tobacco
merchants, of Cincinnati, and was very
prosperous in the business until about
three years ago, when he failed. TIE de-
deased had many noble traits Of character
which ought not and will not soon be for
gotten. His remains we're taken to Coving-
ton at an early hour this morning.
