OBITUARY

Died, on the 9th day of Septem-
Der, 1881, at Grantsville, Garrett
county, Md, Mr.. Charles Leowen-
stein, aged 48 years, months and 8
days.
The deceased was born in Landau,
Principally of Waldeck, Germany.
AT the age of nineteen he left the
iatherland, came to this country and
settled down in Grantsville, where
he resided till, after brief illness,
he fell asleep in Jesus.
Mr.. Leowenstein was one of those
Germans who are an honor to their
fatherland and blessing to this
country. In his death we have lost
one of our best citizens; one who
was highly esteemed by all who
knew him. AS merchant tailor he
stood among the first in Western
Maryland. He was, according to the
Bible mot slothful in business" In
his dealings with his fellow man he
was upright, and in his work the
German expression, "Die arbeit lobt

pany, and consulting with him in
regard to the part the railroad would
take in the matter.
While in Baltimore, these gentle
men also secured the services of the
same landscape gardener who had
laid out the grounds at Druid Hill
Park, to act with Col. Robert Woods
in the work of identifying the Noun
tain Lake Resort.
Mr.. Garrett said he would do all in
his power to promote the interests of
the association and promised to send
Mr.. Randolph as soon as possible to
act with Col. Woods in locating the
depot, lake, &r. He also said the
Baltimore and Ohio Company could
use ice from the lake at Deer Park
and Oakland hotels, as some difficult
ty had been encountered in securing
it for use at these hotels. The certif-
icate of incorporation was issued by
the State of Maryland to the associa-
ton through Judge Pearre, of Cum
berlsnd. and the corporators are Rev.
j. B. Goucher and j. B. VanMeter, of
Baltimt re +; J. NJ. Davis of Oakland,
and DIR. T. H. Logan and Rev. G. p.
Masden of Wheeling. Work will be
prosecuted as fast as possible.

der Meister," was truly fulfilled.
The deceased was a member in
good standing of the Lutheran Church
at Grantsville. His religious life
was quiet, simple and exemplary.
In his death the Church has lost one
ofits most faithful, active and Jealous
members ; one who had the welfare
of our beloved Zion at heart, and
gave literally of his means for her
support. The Bible injun ,tion, "Be
careful to maintain good works."
was no dead letter to him.
Mr.. LeOwenstein leaves wife and
seven children to mourn his depar-
ture; but not unprovided. He be-
lieved that the Bible taught him to
proUide for his oa0n, and especially
for those of his own house. Yet of
all who mourn his death none feel
the stroke so severely as that widow
ed wife and those fatherless children.
We symDathize greatly with them
and pray that the Lord may sustain
them in this their hour ofsorrow and
bereavement. May the Exceeding
great and precious promises" of Gods
Word sustain and comfort them.
May they be enabled to understand
that their loss is his eternal gain,
that the Lord sent for him from
above, that he took him and drew
him out of many waters.

The Frostburg Journal of Saturday
last says:
"Charles Loewenstein, Esq, died
at his residence in Grantsville, Gar
rett county. Md, Monday night last,
aged 4S years and 9 months, of
typhoid-pneumOnia. He had been
i'll two weeks, but being man of
strong physique the issue was pain
full surprise to all who knew him.
He was well and favorably known
in Frostburg was member of Heine
Lodge, No. 127, L. o. o. F., and only
five weeks ago entered Fr0stburg
Lo0e, No. $50, knights of Honor.
For his family the latter was for
tunate step, as by it they will receive
two thousand dollars within ninety
days. His wife and seven childr' n
survive him, the latter mostly grown,
among them A. Loewenstein, ESQ.,,
merchant tailor, of this place. A
large number of Odd Fellows and
knights of Honor off the lodges named
attended the funeral Thursday at
Grantsville. The long line of car
riages on the National Road remin
ded old dwellers somewhat of ancient
stage days, while the bright regalia
and glitterlng badge delighted eyes
unused to the pomp and circumstance
of fraternal tribute to the dead. The
burial services were conducted first
by Rev. J. p. Wilson, chaplain, in
accordance with the K. of H. ritual !;
next by Rev. DIR. j. RuhI with the
l. o. o. F. ritual. At the German
Lutheran Church Rev. Mr.. Young,
pastor. held appropriate funeral SER
vices, Mr.. l.. having been a member.
The deceased was good citizen and
highly esteemed for many solid vir-
tues. His loss will be keenly felt in
GAINESVILLE, particularly by the fam
lily to whom he gave husbands and
fathers Devotion"

General Hancock.

Aspecial from Cleveland to the New
York World says: There has been
no more sincere mourner of the
death of President Garfield than his
antagonist in the last Presidential
campaign. General Hancock's con-
duct and bearing throughout has
served to heighten the public respect
for him. The relations between the
two rivals of last year have always
been pleasant. 1t will be remember
ed that the last official act of Presi-
dent Garfield before he was shot was
to sign an order promoting Colonel
Mitchell, of General Hancock's staff,
to an assistant adjutant-generalship
in the regular army. He accompan-
led the official document with let
ter to General Hancock written in
his own hand, conveying the most
cordial expressions of friendship and
esteem. IL is singular fact that has
never before been made public that
at the very moment when the Presi-
dent was shot General Hancock was
writing a reply to President Gar
fields kind letter. conveying to him
the most cordial expressions ofregard.
The letter was about half finished
when the general received a telegram
announcing the shooting. He left it
unfinished and it yet remains so. 1t
is Gen. Hancock's intention at the
proper time to present President
Garfield's letter and his own unfin-
ished reply to Mrs. Garfield as a
mOurnful memento of the kindly re-
lations that always existed between
the two rival candidates for the Pres
idency.
