On Wednesday last the Odd Fellow Of
Utica performed the ceremony of laying the
cornerstone OF their new hall. This, we be
lieye, is the only time in the history of the
county IL at that Order has ever been called
upon TO perform like service, for, with the
exception of the lodge at Peru, none OF the
other lodges can claim the ownership Of the
hall In which they meet.
On this occasion the Utica lodge had made
considerable preparation, and everything
passed off very pleasantly The day was
bright, although the wind WAS cold and oy-
ercoats and heavy wraps were indispensable
The ceremony was conducted by the follow
ing gentlemen, representing the Grand
Lodge: }. o. Harris, Grand Master; =. w.
Stocks!eger, Deputy Grand Master; II. p
Moore, Grand Secretary; John Mccormick,
Streator, Grand Treasurer; l.. \. Williams,
Grand Chaplain; W. X. Stewart, Grand War.
den; b. B. Griffith, Grand Conductor; Col. J.
b. Day, La Sale, Grand Marshal; J. Vogle,
Grand Guardian; ". !. Harris ard J. A. vii.
son, Grand Representatives.
Following the ceremony an Grafton touch.
ing upon the benefits and beauties Of the
Order, was delivered by f. Y. Griggs, Of this
city, whose love for the cause and eloqucnce
in its behalf justly entities him to the posi-
ton and distinction Of the patriarch of Odd
Fellowship in this city.
II. j. Logan read, by request, an address,
or history, pertaining to the Utica Lodge.
Music was furnished by Fitzgerad's band,
OF Ottawa, and the Baptist church choir, OF
Utica.
The attendance from other parts of the
county was not so large as it should have
been, although the Peru lodge was present
in body, ana there vas I goodly delegation
present from this city, including a small de-
tachment Of the f. 7. Griggs Temple, p. c.,
who attended in uniform by cspecisl request,
and who were assigned as escort to the other
organizations present.
In the evening a dance was given in Clark's
hall, the net proceeds OF which were designed
for the building fund. Balls orchestra, of
this city, furnished the music.
Uuca may congratulate herself upon pos
sessing, in her lodge Of Dad Fellows, an En-
terprsing body OF men, who are credit TO
that community.

Joseph Johnson, proprietor Of the brick
yards east of Ottawa, was found dead in his
dooryard Thursday morning, under the fol-
lowing circumstances; The evening pre-
vious he bad been called to the brick kiln by
gentleman who wanted to purchase few
brick, aud it would seem, after showing his
customer the way to the main road, for the
evening was dark, ne was stricken with ap-
popleXy, from the effect of which he died .
About O'Clock the next morning his wife
went out to the barn on some errard aud
found the body of her husband lying midway
between the house and the barn, still warm,
though life was extinct. His lantern lay be-
side him, and his dog was watching beside
the remains. Coroner Clendenin was sum-
moned from La Sale, ard the inquest tina.
