OBITUARY..
MRS. SAMUEL A. ARNOLD.

Nhhs SAMb Ell A. AhNOLN'
The winter of ls79-sO will be memorable for
sad bereavoments. Our usually healthy and
pleasant town has been startled by series Of
sudden deaths. Another has just occurred
Mrs. Lou. H. Arnold is dead. Tuesday after
noon, at her residence, she passed away. Her
death was a shock to the circle OF her acquaint-
anoe, Few knew OF her illness. She was the
daughter Of b. M. Holcomb, formerly of this
county. She was q young wife; one year ago
she was led to the altar and became the happy
bride Of Samuel A. Arnold, young gentleman
much respected and esteemed. The year sped
happily-alas! all too swiftly by Life ended
so soon. Her work done ere she reached the
prime OF wOmanhOod. Her sun Of hope, Of
prospects, Of average length Of days, useful
ness, good cheer and helpmeet to her husband
suddenly ObscuFed, disappeared in the pail
like cloud Of death. To human eyes an un-
timely death. Yet how well we know, strictly
speaking, no death Is untlmely. The Great
DispOser OF events has set the bounds OF our
habitatiOns and determined our days. He Is
too wise TO err. He Is too good to be unkind,
Mysterious Is this dspensation, yet in the great
future the bitter grief will be turned TO joy.
Her sun not set, only passed under cloud,
emerging In realm OF pure delight, world
radiant with perfection; sweet with serenity.
She is not dead, only exchanged worlds. Not
sleeping, only passed to another state Of being,
awakened to nobler life, A protesting Chris
tian, she was devoted member OF the church.
"soon and forever" --such promise our trust,
Though ashes 10 ashes and dust to dust
"SOOn and forever" our union shall be
Made perfect, our glorious Redeemer, in thee,
When the sins and the sorrows Of time shall be
DER,
Its pangs and Its partings remembered no more;
Where life cannot fail, and where death can
not sever,
Christians with Christ shall be g soon and for
ever" -Rsw Lexington Herald.

Report OF County lnfirmary school.

EDS HERALD; As the citizens Of the county
like to hear occasional reports from their pub
lie institutions, we submit this statement in
regard to the Innrmary school. Within the
present term Of six months, which opened on
September !, 1870 nfty-nin scholars have been
enrolled, nine Of whom have been taken by
families to raise, 80 that there are fifty in at
tendance at the present time These are for
the most part quite young, the average age
being 0k years. and thirty are under that age.
The branches taught are reading, ponmanship,
orthogrAphy, arithmetic and geography besides
frequent oral lessons. Some persons who come
10 visit our school seem to come with tho mis-
taken idea that many Of the children are almost
devoid Of intellect For the information Of all
such persons We state as fact that there Is not a
childln the school thatis not endowed with fair
share Of mental ability, and that, taken as u
whole they will compare fayOrably with children
OF the same age IN our country schools, AS we
look into the bright faces Of these little unfor-
tunates, who are watching our every word and
action, we can not but realize the magnitude Of
the work and the responsibility Of training
these children not only for all coming time but
for eternity. TEACHER,

FOREST SHADE GRANGE No. 3bS, l.. or ii.
FAYETTE COUNTY, OHIO, Jan, 10, lSS0t
WHEREAS, Ithas pleased our Heavenly Father
to remove from works to rewards our much-
loved sisters, Harriet Eyre and Addie Chew,
charter members of our grange and sisters in
the flesh; and
WHEREAS, In the death of our sisters we rev.
erently recognize the hand of loving Almighty
Father, whose tender merces are over all His
works, and who knoweth the best way and the
best time to call His children home, as a divine
reaper knOweth the fruit that Is ready for the
heavenly garner. " Ere their garments brushed
the dews on JOrdan's banks" they stepped across
Its tuTbid waters, and in moment were trans
ported into their elysian home above. There
are many of us who recall with admiration the
many excellent qualities of our departed sisters;
their Christian virtues, their innOcency, their
artess dsinterested friendship, their love Of
family and friends, and in everything which
rendered them lovely and useful. Therefore
be it
RESOLVED, That in the death Of our sisters our
Order has lost two of its brightest stars thereby
breaking two strong links in the fraternal
chain which binds us together.
RESOLVED, That while we mourn their loss
we are COmfOrted by a strong assurance that
through the merits OF loving Saviour they
have entered into and are enjoying higher and
hoier inheritance in that salubriOus cline
whore roses are without th0Eps and where joys
never end.
RESOLVED, That we tender our sincere and.
heartfelt sympathy to the bereayed husband,
parents and sisters. Feeling that language Is
weak and inadequate to afford them cOnsOla-
ton, we would point them to Him who alone is
able to strengthen, to comfort and console, and
who suffeTeth not sparrow to fall to the ground
without His notice.
RESOLVED, That our charter be draped in
mourning for thirty days.
RESOLVED That the above resolutions be
spread on the minutes Of our Grange and that
a copy be presented to each Of the afflicted
and to the Grange Bulletin for publication.
