 street, Mrs A. E. Brintor, wife of Ransler
 Brl lton.
 The sad.event so briefly recorded in the above lines, brought great sorrow to the family, relatives, friends and ne1gh- bors of the deceased. Mrs Brinton had but few near relatives besides her own family in this vicinity, but many friends, who mourn with them in their sorrow. Mrs B. was born in the town of Salisbu- ry, Litchfield County, Connecticut, Oct 29th, 1886, and resided there until 1858 when she was married and removed to this city, which has been her home ever since The deceased fulfilled the old idea of good wife and mother She was industrious and frugal in all 1 her household affairs, kind and watchful for the comforts of her family. Always at work and never happier than when she was doing something to add to the comfort or enjoyment of others, regard less of time or trouble to herself She did all she could to make home pleasant. She will be greatly missed by her neigh bors, but as is always the case, where @ good wife and loving mother is taken, the loss will fall the heaviest upon the members of her own family. To thcm the loss is irreparable. The heartfelt sympathy of all friends will go out to them in this great bereavement, and es- pecially to the little girl, who at the age of eleven so much needs a mothers wise counsel and tender watchful care. Besides her husband, son and little girl, who are left to mourn her loss, the de- ceased leaves sister, Mrs Turner, who resides in Mansfield, Mass, who was present to care for and comfort her in her last sickness, and two brothers who reside in Connecticut. There are other relatives, but these mentioned are all there are living of her own family.
 Mrs Brinton had been ailing some dur ing the summer, but her unwillingness to able to attend to all her household affairs she was obliged to call in 8 physician. It is not more than three weeks since since she took to her bed. From the first her complaint baffled the skill of her family physician and those he called for consultation, and the deceased her self seemed to be impressed with the feeling that it was her last sickness Tomorrow with sorrowful hearts the bereaved family and sympathizing friends will follow her remains to their last resting place, there they will lay her away to rest-to rest beside the low ed ones whose graves she so often visit ed to adorn with sweet flowers Here in this lovely spot,in this beautiful rest ing place of the dead, kind friends will come and lay upon her grave the choice flowers she so greatly loved while she lived, and here they will leave her to rest until the morning of the resurrec- tion.-Schenectady Ereniug Star.

 The foregoing article called our at tention to the days of stage coaches and led us to make enquiries about them. We have been informed that MT Joel Pomeroy owned all the stage routes in this section, viz: from Canaan to Hud- son, Canaan to Albany, Canaan to Hart ford, Canaan to New Haven. He also owned and conducted the "Stage House" near this village. This stage house is still standing. It is now known as the Ferris farm house and is occupi- ed by MT Patrick Quinn. MT Joel Pomeroy gave the route from Canaan to Hudson, to Ebenezer Pomeroy.
 A few words about the drivers may be of interest. MT Harry Johns drove from New Haven to Canaan, MT Ebenezer Pomeroy from Canaan to Hudson, MT Garfield from Hartford to Canaan, Mir Theodore Pomeroy from Canaan to AL bany and in concluding these reminis- cences we will state that he is now liv- ing at Medina, N. Y., and was 91 years old last Sunday. November4. Although he lives at Medina, his post office ad dress is Shelby Centre, Orleans county, N. Y.--EI
