"The day Is cold and dark and dreary:
1trains, and the wind is mover weary; E
The vine still clings to the mouldorlns wall,
But at ever, gust the dead leaves fall, '
And the day is dark and dreary."
What gloom death can cast over family,
a school or a societyi For second time
within the space Of a few short months-we
have been called to mourn the death Of one
Of our members. The message was sudden
and brief " Henry C. Clark is dead l" Yet
it seemed almost loo much for realisation.
But at this very hour, while am writing
this, weeping friends and relatives staud
around an open grave; the day is as drcary
as their hearts; the last look has been tax
en-, and then loving hands gently consiCn
to it's last resting place all that is mortal Of
our friend Henry.
During his stay here in our midst, be made
many warm friends he had true friends,
because he himself was true. He was no
pretender-no friend in disguise. lie spoke
i'll of no one, and never tried to defame any
student by spreading false reports.
As member of the Keystone Society
he was loyal, staunch and true. Her inter.
est was his inlerest-her welfare his delight.
HI recognized no faction in tho society, but
planting himself firmly on the side of Truth
and Justice, he boldly vindicatcd her rights,
AS ready ,lebatef,a man of common
sense and good judgment, he had few If any
superi"rs in the society. Whatever the so
ciety committed 10 his care he performed
wcll. He was president OF last years enter.
tainment, and il was owing 10 his energy
aud perseverance that the affair proved 60
successful. At our last anniversary he Per
formed to the honor Of the society. AS trea-
surer, for nearly year, he was scrupulous-
ly exact and honest. If only all the mem.
bers of the Keystone Society would follow
his noble example as Keystonian, we
would have a stronger and more efficient
society.
Socially Henry Clark, was always genial
and full Of native wit. Many pleasant
hour did we spend with him, and many an
anecdote could we relate concerning him il
space would permit.
Need We say anything about bis christian
character? This was so strong in him and
so self evident, that it hardly needs com.
ment. Summing up then, we mnst say
that his life was simple and pure. He liv.
ell not for himself alone But for others
Thus, cut off in the prime of manhood, he
has laid down the armor OF life, and gone tC
| his eternal rest.
We have spoken in this manner, not be
cause it is customary to speak well oil tn,
dead, but because we have tried to spca !
the truth about him. We trust then, tha
the Keystone Society, for which he laboreC
so faithfully, will always cling to what il
just aud true, and forever revere his mem
ory.
"He hath gone to his home, and unloosenet
the shield,
That he bore on life's baltic plain,
And the mighty sword he was won't to WELD
Is deep in its sheath again.
"He hath gone to his horc for the race is run
And the wreath is around his brow;
The angels saw when the prize was won,
And they greet him in Heaven now"

O"ooaC~t~
Thomas Riley, engineer of freight engine
Cayuga, was caught between his engine and
the eabeose, in the Paekerton yard, ON Sun
day morning last, and severely Injured. II
appears that Riley had left the engine in
charge of his fireman, Mr.. Con. Haggerty
and went out on the track TO instruct his
crew, instead Of going down along the train
he stood at the switch, and finally stepped
in front Of the eaboose. Tne fireman was
unconscious OF the fact that anybody was in
front Of the eaboose, or that the switch was
open, ana on receiving a signal 10 move
forward done so, but Immediately reversed
the engine when the cahonse bounced off fthe
track aHd pulled ii on the rail again. Ril.
ey had not seen the signal from below, aud
the sudden forward movement Of the engine
aud eaboose threw him on the road between
the rails, when the axles Of the caboose
trucks caught him and crushed him on the
ties OF the road he is very stout man and
the crush was very severe. lie was found
and although conscious, proved to be serious
lv hurti he was taken to his home at Halle
ton the same morning. He will probably
! rssover.
