Mrs. Rebecca Powers, wife of James
Powers, forme merly of Youngstown, o.,
was born in Newton township, Trum-
bull Co., o., April 10th, 1910. Died at
her home at Roo >stown Center, Aug.
2lst, 1882.
Mother Powers maiden name was
Windle. She was descendant of the
Jackson family, who came from Ire
land to the U S. in the year 1725, and
settled near Philadelphia, Pa. Gener-
al Andrew Jackson's sister was her
f theirs (Francis Windle's) mother.
The family were all Quakers of the
olden type. General Andrew Jackson
was great uncle to Rebecca Powers.
Mother Powers removed, with her
husband, from Youngstown to Root: I.
town, O., in March, 1871.
She was converted when but little
girl.
She was married to James Powers,
her now bereaved husband, in 1884,
and with him united in membership
with the NJ. E. Church in 1886. She
has been faithful and consistent
member of the Church. Her whole
life has been one of devotion to the
cause of God. She has always been
an earnest, devoted, quiet christian.
The home in which she was called
mother" has always felt the purify
ing influence of her christian example.
She is missed in her home, in the
church of which she was member,
and in the community. Her friends
"sOrrOw not as those who have no
hope" Infinitely more than we have
lost has she gained. We can but think
that the chorus of praise rings more
loudly, and the company of the saints
is made more nearly perfect and more
joyous by her presence in the Better
Land. She has passed over only a lit
tie before us
"Just gone within the veil where we shall fol-
low,
Not far before us. hardly out of sight
We down beneath her In this cloudy hollow,
And she far up on yonder sunny height.
"GOne to begin new and happier story.
The bitter tale OF earth now told and done;
These outer shadows for that inner glory
Exchanged forever-O. thrice blessed oneI
"O. freed from fetters of this lonesome prison,
| How shall We greet thee in that day of days
When He who died, yea rather who is risen.
Shall these frail frames from dust and dark
ness raise"

Mr.. T. Ct. PHILLIPS.
Dear Sr:-After fully considering
your statement of the result of my
Tontine Policy No. 74224, which you
procured for me ten years ago, have
concluded of the four options to take
the 3rd. That is, to pay the premium
due Aug. l, 1882, out of the profits and
apply the balance to the purchase of
an annuity, and continue the policy
on the life plan, making future premi-
ums $500 instead of $500 that [ have
been paying, With this settlement I
am we'll satisfied, believing it to be the
best and cheapest insurance that can
be had, and the Equitable to be all you
represented it to be in point of ability,
liberality and promptness in the ad-
justment of claims.
Yours Respectfully,
Mrs. M. A. THOMAS,

Sudden and Violent.

The change from the summer to the
fall season is so sudden and violent
here in the West that few can get
through the winter months without
having cough or cold of more or less
severity fastened upon them. The
seeds of that dread disease, consump-
ton, are usually sown in one OF these
much dreaded months. Browns Ex-
pectorant is sure cure for the most
violent coughs and colds, and will ar
rest consumption if taken in time.

An Appeal.

EDITORS PRESS: In times gone
by" our young city has, in a sort of a
manner, maintained a Cornet Band of
which our citizens might be proud,
and yet our Bands have been COM
PEELED to disorganlze for the want of a
proper support from the town. Our
present band has, so far, proceeded
with its new organization under en-
barrassing circumstances. A set of
new first class instruments have been
procured and the members have striv-
en- to qualify themselves with COM
mendable energy. The present time
finds them indebted in a small amount
for room rent, and small balance for
instruments. They have secured the
services of a very competen leader,
who cannot be expected to give his
time and attention to the instruction
of its members without some compen-
sation. Should not this Band be MAIN
tanned by our citizens? Cannot our
City Council legally make an appro-
priation for this purpose? Is it not in
order for our home musical talent to
give benefit to the Cornet Band, and
if done, will not our citizens make that
benefit what it should be-? Let some
thing be done, and at once, to encour-
age the members and to compensate
Prof. Stoerkel for his services.
