The Presidents Mother.

VISIT TO ONE OF the GOOD 0Lp PIONEERS
or ONO.
Mrs. William NJ Taylor in the Newcastle Couraat
In the quiet little village OF Hiram,
Ohio, had the pleasure of spending
several hours with Mrs. Garfield. the
aged mother of the President, iovial,
fresh faced lady of over eighty years,
who still walks as spry AS girl. Our
gifted President must have inherited
much of his marvellous energy from his
little mother, whose kindly, resolute
face is only more delicate type of the
rugged features OF her statesman son.
With much vivacity she told Us of
earlier days, when left widow with
four little children, her pioneer neigh.
bors offered to make bee aud split
rails for fencing her land. But when
these helpers found that this staunch
young temperance matron would not
furnish them whiskey, according to- the
custom then. they all quit their work,
leaving the logs only quartered. But,
true to her principles and nothing
daunted, the grand little woman her.
self took up the maui and alone split
sixty rails. She says: Every time |
lifted the maui, it was 70 heavy and |
so slender, its weight nearly pulled me
backward" Are you not proud to
think of it now - asked her aged sis.
ter, Mrs. Bo,utou. "oh.' answered
Mrs. Garfield, II am ashamed to think
that men were ever such slaves TO
whiskey.
She says in those days she always
walked three miles to church. taking
off her shoes and stockings TO wade the
Chagrin river. which ran between her
house and the meeting house. With
