We have heard ofangeic visitations and that
they are few and far between. We suppose
however, that every person receives at least
one. Ours, we feel certain, came on last
Thursday and by us that day will ever be
considered
"0ne of those heavenly days that cannot
die"
We had meant to compliment, but feir
that if we should begin, we would not know
when to stop. MeeStep4 om thanks to NJ

A correspondent OF the Port Royal
Times says: Mr.. John A. Reed, son of
Mrs. II. l.. McMeen, of Turbett twp,
this county, lost the faculty of speech
and was unable to articulate above O.
whisper from the effects of bad cold he
contracted at the McAlisterville S. o. s.
in Oct, 1876. He was under medical
treatment for one year, and consulted
some of the best physicians of Junista
county, but all failed to restore his
voice. He quit school and worked on q
farm for two years. On the 4th of July
1880, he was travelling in a buggy in
company with a Mr.. Chrlsty. They
were eating some raisins, and Reed chok-
ed on them. He was so badly strangled
that the blood ran out of his mouth and
nose, but when he came to, he could
talk as loud as any one. He has been
able to talk and sing loud ever since.
He was almost four years that he could
not speak above whisper. He was in
