December 90, 1880.
FRIEND POLLOCK In note relating 10
to the death of Mr. Erger in last weeks HER
AID see you misstated the name ; it is Err
hard Enger instead of Edward. Mr. Engler
was buried on last Wednesday by the Mason.
c fraternity Of which he was an honored
member. Tie belonged to Beetown lodge
No. l46. The general respect in which the
deceased was held in our community NAV be
estimated by the multitude who accompanied
his remains to their last resting place. After
a short prayer at the late home of the de-
ceased his remains were borne by the pail
bearers to the new Baptist church where the
Rev q D. Stevens of Bloomington, preached
very appropriate and impressive funeral
sermon, after which the Masonic fraternity
conducted the last sad rites
The church above referred to is filing a
void long and very seriously felt by the Prot
estant communities hereabouts, and while the
church has been built under the auspices of
the Baptist congregation it is generally cen-
coded to be tree for other denominations
when not in use by the Bapssts. While
our community generally regardless Of creed
has contributed literally toward the building
of the church, Messrs. Stevens & Bartlett
deserve the greatest praise for their lberality
and the Rev. G. D. Stevens for his persever
ance. The little church Is an ornament to
the place.
Our people 10 general are busy gsrner>
ing their supply of ice, Of which large
amount has been put u here, and before the
holidays everybody and his good neighbor
viii have a supply. The ice is splendid this
year as ice--but as bridge it is very treaeh-
erous-a lmos. every day you hear Of teams
breaking in, though thus far no serious acci-
dent has happened in this part, but the many
holes cut right opposite the village for get,
ting ice came well nigh being fruitful of a
serious accident few nights ago. The ice
on the channel 10 front of town being very
smooth, the boys had iue sport skating after
school, and thus it happened that Grin Brooks,
who is attending school here, went skating
on las. Thursday eve. and not observing the
hole skated right into it. He hallooed Justify
for help and By 'dint Of good running and a
lucky grab Mr.. George sherman succeeded
in catching him by the hair and landed him
safely on the ice. Mr.. Brooks was already
undar the ice and had indeed A narrow es.
cape.
w God has of late become rather costly
article snd it is hoped that the ice bridge
will soon be safe and good supply be laid
ia--our chiei supply comes from over tbs
river. Some of our people are at cutting and
others are We. seriously thr atening the wood
