RINGoEs, sept. ~, 1901.
The sad news announcing the death Of our
beloyed President, reached us last Tuesday
morning; with the arrival of the train and
mail. Sorrow filed the hearts and tears
could not be restrained from the eyes Of
many as they read of the last hours of our
noble and honored President. Day after day
the news concerning our suffering President
had been eagerly sought, and hope was en-
tertained by many, as they learned at different
times of the better symptoms and hopeful
bulletins concerning him. But anxious fears
alternated with prayerful hope, till at last
God III HIS wisdom has seen fit to call him to
HIS Eternal Home.
Our late President was a man highly re-
spected by all and honored by the whole
world The pluck and energy lie exhibited
from childhood won for him the admiration
of many, till at last the voice of the people
called him to position second to None on
this eaitt--that of President Of the Quilted
States. And the few months he exercised this
power, show that he was man of powerful
mind, of strong determination, and with a
keen sense of right and wrong. His manly
courage, the Christian fortitude and patience
he exhibited during his Illness, won for him a
host of friends, aud brought forth during his
sickness, expressions of honor and praise, and
since his death, of sympathy and grief from
the crowned Princes of Europe and other ma
tions. Oh that we could have snch men as
our late President to run the affairs Of our
Government
Great praise and honor are due the wife of
our martyr President. The heroism she ex-
hibited during his illness was remarkable,
and brought forth from the hearts of many.
words of affection and praise. Who can tell.
or what words can express the sorrow and
pain that filled her heart, as she sat by the
bedside one, who, dearer to her than all
others, had been stricken down by the hand
of dastardy assassin May God attend,
bless, and comfort her in her great affiiction.
Al uuiou service to show respect to the
memory Of President Garfield, was held in the
Presby teran Church In this place, on Mon
day, at II A. NJ. There was large attend
ance of people from the village and surround
ing country. The pulpit was appropriately
draped and presented mournful appearance.
An excellent and eloquent sermon was preach
ed by Rev. Mr.. Kent. A few remarks were
also made By Rev. Mr. Helsley. Appropriate
music was rendered BY the choir. The meet,
ipg was a sad one, and tears were brought to
the eyes of many as the pastor spoke Of the
suffering Of our dead President.

across the main street in our village, from the

in accordance with the notice given in

week, number Of ladies of this city formed
themselves into a committee to receive cloth
ing, &C., for the sufferers by the forest fires
in Michigan. Mr.. Jas. d. Stryker very kindly
gave the use of the store, corner Bridge and
Union streets, and on Tuesday, Wednesday
aud Thursday of last week, it was opened to
receive contributions. Articles of clothing,
household articles, ETC., were received filling
five large boxes and two barrels, which were
forwarded to the Mayor of Detroit, who is
chairman of the "Central Committee for
the relief of the sufferers. The articles con-
tributed were in excellent condition, with
rare exceptions, and were not simply cast-of
wearing apparel etc. Some persons who con-
tributed articles, we are told, wrote letters
and enclosed them in their contributions,
asking the receivers to write to them. This
charity is one of the most deserving before
the people aud it should not be left to drop
with the one effort The destruction in the
burnt district is great, and several thousand
people will need to be carried through the
winter and the coming spring, before they
can again become self-supporting.
