X Serious Case of Poisoning.

Mir. Henry Allyn, who has been critically i'll for several days, is improving. While preparing the remains of West Side lady for burial some ten days ago, he accidentally inoculated himself with poisonous matter from the body. The puncture in his thumb was so slight that he gave it no attention at first, but soon his whole right arm and side became involved and a physician was sum- moned. Everything was done to neutralize the effect of the poison and to drive it from the system, yet he grew worse gradually for week, and on Monday. his symptoms were of such dangerous character that his life was despaired of: Monday night there was an improvement in his condition, and yesterday hopes for his recovery were entertained He is not yet out of danger. His recovery from such dreadful accident and affiiction at th1s time of life will be something mar velous. It is to be hoped that he may sur- vive it.-Noracich BuIletin.

One daughter receives $27,O0o and one daughter, the wife of Harry W. Vail, has the life use of house valued at $5, 900. One son, Henry, is not mentioned in the will The homestead is given to the widow and daugh- ter, Fanny, they to share alike neither to rent it without consent of the other. Noth- ing is said in the will aboit their right to sell the homestead.

The oldest person present Mrs David Durand, aged 68 years. The third oldest was Miss Lois Crofut, who was one year younger than Mrs. filling. The average age of twenty of the oldest was T years. The hours passed most pleasantly by in "reminiscences of the past, and many were the kind wishes for the fu- ture uttered to the worthy woman. At the table was served a cake made after recipe 1 of many years ago for wedding cake. which made some of the younger present wish they had been married in old times.
