they consider the wisest course for all

Wheelock,


RAsCALITY.-A week ago Saturday,
some men at work upon the road, saw
smoke issuing from Nate Sawyer's barn.
They went at once into the loft, and
found it all fixed for blaze, but it was
put out before it got any Roadway. The
revelations were rather startling. Some
one had put down two boards on the
hay, side by side, and turned a two
bushel basket over them, and covered
it with hay. This combustible stuff was
so much on fire as to smoke up the
boards and burn them somewhat, but it
was discovered before it burst out. This
was about ten o'clock in the forenoon.
Early that morning Sawyer had taken
his family and gone to Walden on a
visit, returning Sunday. Of course
some one set the fire, and all the cir
cumstances point in one direction. The
buildings were insured. Had the fire
got under Roadway, all that end of the
village would probably have been
burned.
B. F. Taylor, NJ. S. Staples, and Dan
iel Jones have been repairing their
buildings.
There is now prospect of as good
hay crop as last year, and the potato
bugs are thicker than ever.

ADDRESS BEFORE THE AL1JMNI

In the evening, large audience as
sem led in the hall to listen to an ad-
dress by Rev. George H. Ide of Law
renee, Mass, an alumnus of this school.
His subject was, The upper and under
forces, and their bearing upon the scope
Of education. The address was deep and
scholarly, and so well spiced as not to
be tedious in the least degree. At its
close, social half-hour was spent,
when the exercises for 1880 closed.

We have already alluded to the re-
markable funeral of the Rev. VIM. N.
Parry, of Worcester, Mass. His will is
one of the oldest things ever probated.
He forbids any announcement of his
death in any newspaper. He directs
that after death his body shall be placed
in box of unplaned boards, dressed in
his poorest clothing, stockings, drawers
and shirt, and no other garments, and
shall be Immediately nailed up, that no
one be allowed to look upon him at his
funeral that there be no flowers, no
minister, no public notice of the funeral
and no other religious service than the
reading by some member of his church
of Psalm xxi and xc., and the singing
of his favorite hymn, Lead kindly
light" and that no strangers be allowed
to tend his funeral. He then provides
"that after the above exercises 1 be TAX
EN- in an express wagon, or any other
cheap conveyance, to be inferred in any
lot, or place or parcel of ground that
any member of my church will, for the
love of God, give me. ! am not asham-
ed to ask this, for my Lord and Saviour
Jesus Christ had to be put under similar
obligation and to be favored with like
disposition after his death that no head
stone, floral wreath or other sign be used
to mark the place of my burial, as my
God and Lord needs no such reminder
of the place where my dust reposes. -
He then says that his wife shall not at
tend his funeral, and gives his directions
for the settlement of mortgage. One
of his requests was that no newspaper
allude to his death. If the other pro-
visions of his will have been as thor
oughly disregarded as this one, the doc
ument may be set down as a complete
failure. No man 3 death has had more
general attention called to it.-New Ha-
zen Register.

Let Your Liqht So Shine.


A traveller once visiting the light
house at Calais, said to the keeper: :" But
what If one of the lights should go out
at night2" "Neverl impossiblel' l' he
cried. "Sir, yonder are ships sailing to-
all parts of the world. If tonight one
of my burners were out, in six months
should hear from America, or India,
saying that on such night the lights
at Calais lighthouse gave no warming,
and some vessel had been wrecked. All,
sir! sometimes feel, when Elook upon
my lights, as if the eyes of the whole
world were fixed upon me. Go ont
burn dim Never! impossiblel
With how much dignity can enthusi-
asm invests the humblest occupation
Yet, what lesson to the Christainl 1t
is no romance which makes the Chris
tian spiritual lighthouse for the whole
world, with the eyes of the whole world
upon him. Let then his light be full
and bright and clear. The moment he
neglects it, and leaves his lamps un-
trimmed, some poor soul, struggling
amid the waves of temptation, for lack
of 1t, may be dashed upon the rocks Of
destruction.

Morton's store. They expected to find
him sleeping In the little apartment Off
the main room, terrify him into ac-
quiescence, ransack the establishment
and carry of such booty as suited them.
Should he resist, they would kill him,
II necessary to the accomplishment of
their purpose.
Word was instantly sent to such as
could he trusted In an emergency, and
within an hour some 25 men who knew
the use of gunpowder, were assembled
at Morton's, all fully armed, and with
Morton's stock of ammunition to back
them. They decided TO take their stand
outside the building, and post sentlnels
in every direction DO rods away. The
woman was to retire to q safe distance
and remain secreted. Morton COM
manded.
All being in readiness, they had not long
to wait. Within an hour q sentinel
came in with the tidings that a party,
some twenty to thirty as nearly as he
could judge in the starlight, were ap-
preaching. BY preconcerted signal
the other sentinels were called in, and
the men deployed in such manner as to
give an impression of the largest possi-
BILE numbers when o simultaneous fire
should be delivered.
1t appeared that the savages, thinking
1t an easy matter to rob single man,
had not come in force, but had detailed
few braves for the purpose. On they
came, with their stealthy tread, until
their forms began to be dimly outlined.
AS they came within easy range, Nor
ton estimated their number to be not
more than twenty. When all was ripe,
Morton gave the word to fire. AS the
twenty-five rifles scattered in long
line, blazed out upon them, they seemed
men had opened fire. With one united
horrible yell, they fled to the woods, and
no trader of that village was ever there
after molested by them. The men had
purposely aimed high, as they desired
rather to frighted than to injure those
with whom they were not at all anxious
to inaugurate a bloody feud. AS con-
sequence no blood was shed and no seri-
Gus ill-feeling engendered.
The Indian woman who had proved
so faithful a friend, was provided with
home in the village. She was given
rudimentary English education, adopted
the dress and civilization, and subse-
quently married Morton, who was in
fact the father of the little fellow who
had followed his mother to the village
on that eventful day. Some of her de-
scendants still reside in Cleveland 9TH
ers are scattered elsewhere.

John Morton was the foremost trader
in the village, intelligent, trustworthy,
and leader among his fellow settlers !;
so that when warning of danger with
the sanction of his name went round to
a certain trusty few, there was certain
ty of prompt and effectual response.
At sundown the Indians began to de-
part, and by dusk not one remained in
the village. AS soon as darkness had
settled, the few who had been warned
assembled in Morton's store for consul
tation. 1t was not many minutes be-
fore a rap was heard, which Morton
readily recognized as that of the woman
of whom we have spoken. By her de-
votion and fidelity she had saved him
from many dangers and many losses
She was admitted and began at once to
reveal the Indians plan in detail. 1t
was not theirintention to make gener-
al attack; their designs were only upon
