UNION TOWN.

The funeral of Mrs. Jennie P Dunbar,
whose death has already been noticed, took
place on the 2d inst. at 10 o'clock A. NJ Rev
W. B. Waddell addressed those who had con-
vened together upon the sad and solemn oc-
casion, and B. r. Johnston, Esq, had charge
of the funeral arrangements. The pall-bear>
ers were, Mrs Aggie Pollock, Mrs lacy Kill
gore, Mrs Sadie Nichols, Mrs Maggie Bell,
Mrs Sarah Lodge, Mrs Rose Lee She was
laid at rest in the burying ground at Unity
Church. Mr. James Price formerly lived four
miles northwest of Kennon, Ohio, and he and
his family were well and favorably known in
that community also. Mrs Dunbar suffered
from protracted illness, but bore her suffer
ings patiently. She was highly esteemed by
all her acquaintances who regret her death at
so early an age.
"Beyond the farewell and the greeting,
We shall be soon;
Beyond the parting and the meeting,
Beyond the pulses fevered beating,
We shall be soon.
LO0e, Rest and Home-Sweet Home
Lord tarrY not, but come"
Mr. JAS w. MoFFATT, of Warnock, Ohio,
was the guest of Mr. Nichols, and was at
church here on Sabbath. Mr. Moffatt is
young man of talent and is held in high esti-
nation by all who know him.
WE neglected to notice the removal of Mr.
James Long from this place to Flushing re-
Gently. Mr. Long is plasterer and bricklay
er by trade, and was considered civil and
industrious citizen.
Mr.. CHAs. Hicks, young man known to
many in this locality, died from the effects of
fever near Fairpoint on the first day of the
month, and the interment took place the fol-
lowing day in the Methodist burying ground
here. He had been engaged at labor on the
T. V. Railroad.
HIGH WATER has done considerable damage
to crops and fences along Wheeling creek and
its branches, destroying fences and submerg-
ing corn and grain. We have no remarks to-
make concerning the weather at this date.
= FARMERS should remember that it is to
their interest to patronize home industry.
Mr.. ]. w. Tillet of the Uniontown Mills is
at his post, and is prepared to do good work.
Why drive four miles to mill when your
work can be well done at home? We have
seen his flour tested by good bakers, and pro-
superior to some brands that have
become popular. Steady running of the MAJ
chinerY will still improve the quality of his
work. "Give the boy chance" Ii.
