tween our Office and dwelling assures us
that no one having used such a convent

occasions for its use ale more frequent
than could be imagined, and all who can
afford it win not regret the expense after

no larger than Wellington all over the
country, and the universal verdict is that
they do not see how they got along with
out it.
To be within speaking distance of our
neighbors, our merchants, our grocers, our

advantage that needs only to be tried to be
appreciated.

more valuable does it become to each in.

At FITCH'S

The infant son of Mr.. and Mrs. b. G,
Starr, which had been seriously ill with
cholera infantum for two or three weeks,
had improved so as to be considered out OF
danger, but grew worse last Saturday, and
what had been feared all along-brain di.
sease-was developed, and the child died
Sunday afternoon Mr.. Starr's mother is
here, and his father is expected from Port
land, Me-, today. The parents and family
have the sympathy of many friends. The
funeral service was attended at the house
this morning.
We are glad to be able to give our
readers even brief extract of Rev. j. A.
Daly's very excellent Thanksgiving dis
course, though any presentation of it in
print lacking the presence and inspiration
OF the speaker but family shadows the SER
mon as delivered, much less the brief alb
stract written from memory subsequently.
We voice the general verdict when We say
that in thought and expression, ii was one
of the most profitable and enjoyable our
Wellington people have had the pleasure
of hearing.
