last week, where Mr.. Yarnell has pur-
chased property and will engage in
business, expecting to make that a
permanent home. Mr.. Y. is young
man deserving of honorable mention, as
a moral, orderly and industrious citizen.
AS good neighbors, the family was re-
garded in the best ranks, and the citi-
Zens of Delroy will find them in every
respect worthy of citizenship.
Mr.. ELLSWORTH MILLER, whose fu-
neral took place last week, was reported
as moral young man of respectability
and worth. He and his twin brother
were brought up in the household of
Thomas Brokaw, Esq, where they had
the advantages of christian training,
and their own kindly and social natures
made for them many friends. His death
was caused by typhoid fever. Rev. T.
j. Milford conducted divine service, and
Mr.. Joel Walker the funeral arrange
ments, and furnished beautiful burial
.casket. Interment at Methodist bury
ing ground.
Mr. JOHN MOORE, of Ottumwa. Iowa,
with his two boys, are visiting their rel
atives here. Mr.. NJ. was formerly engag-
ed in railr6ading, but was year or so
past crushed by the cars, and has not yet
recovered from the injuries.
Mr.. JOHN E. THOMPSON and Miss Ida
Lodge, were married on Thursday last,
at IL CLOCK A. NJ, at the house of the
brides father, Abner Lodge, ESQ.,, Rev.
T. j. Milford, consummating the mar
riage. The relatives of the contracting
parties were present to witness the GER
emOny, a nice dinner was partaken of,
and the happy couple were entertained
for supper at the house of Mr.. Joseph
Thompson, and large reception party
given in their honor the same evening.
1t is needless to say that everything
was in the best of taste, as the wealth
and refinement of the parties concerned
will warrant the assertion. Miss Ida
Lodge was in every sense the true lady,
and Mr.. Thompson has won one of the
handsomest and best girls in the COM
munity-and we also feel that she has
secured for life partner gentleman
of honor and the highest responsibility.
They both have the kindly regards and
best wishes of their many friends.
Mrs. ANNA SNEDEKER is lying very
low from the effects of neuralgia of the
brain and paralysis, and her death is
hourly expected. Her two brothers and
three sisters from Virginia arrived Sat-

Nicholas b. Snedeker, her son, just re-
covering from an almost fatal attack of
typhoid fever.
STATE FAIR MEASLES.-School dis

bad enough, but State measles are the
boss measles" Mr. Luther Ritchey,
Mr.. Marion Dunn, and Mr.. George A.
Caldwell shave EN-" We are glad to
say that they are all better, and will
soon be we'll again. They refused the
old-established treatment of "meadow W
allspice tea" and-yet they live, and are
moderately happy.
Mr.. JOHN S. SMITH, the esteemed
agent at Oakdale station, is hardly de-
serving of the matrimonial felicity
which has befallen him, owing to the
manner in which be misled and deceived
his many friends in the matter. How
ever, as Mr.. S. stands high in their re-
gard, they will forgive him this time, and
as he has been so fortunate as to secure
for a wife, a handsome lady of the high
est respectability, they, one and all, ten
der their congratulations "Mr. j. S.
Smith and Miss Belle Clark. were mar
ried in Washington, Pa, October 18th.
by Rev. DIR. ]. Brownston." No cards.
Mr.. WIN. MERRITT. in the vicinity of
town, had an abundant crop of perfect
apples-amountlng, we believe, to over
200 bushels. We are informed that a
row of redstreak trees produce alternate
crops on the east and west. sides of the
trees, and that a total failure is the ex-
ception in his orchard.
