The following paper was unanimously
adopted by tie Cumberland Presbyterian
Sunday School OF Kirksville, Mo. Oct. !4tl
1883:
The master has como and has called from
us te himself Prof. Z. b. SeitZ, one who wa:
for time associated with us in our Sunday
school work. We all admire, and shall evel
hold in memory his pure, noble and useful
life as worthy to be imitat d. All feel that
the loss is to the Sunday Seh~Ol, the church
the community, his family and his friends.
How sad to lose such man, of such
rare ability and worth to this world. But
there Is great consolation in the thought,
that our loss is his gain, his infinite, eternal
gain and that the Bible assures us, by its ma
ny promises. that We shall soon meet on the
bright shores Of everlasting bliss
Our school regrets very much that the
home of the family IN the future will not be
in our midst That they may find happy
home and many kind and loving friends to
help them along in the journey Of life, is the
strong desire of these friends, whom they
have left behind. These two dear little boys,
Ray and Willie will be missed from their
classes on Sunday morning. G.. bless them.
Ray will also be missed ut the meeting of the
busy Bees" Of which he WAS an interested.
active menbsr. All sympatlize with the he
reaved family in their great and .rrepairable
loss. W. p Mason

A visit to the Normal on Tuesday

| n VlSlt u lHe NOILudl On 1ueSud!
morning brought us opportunely te
hear Pres. Blanton's words of greeting
to the Professors and students, having
|just returned from his sad duty in ac'
company;ng the family Of the late Prof
Prof. Seitz, with his remains, to their
old home, Greenville, Ohio. 1t was
very grateful to all our hearts to learn
in what esteem tie memory Of Prof
Seitz was cherished by his old friends
and fel]ow-ci,izens; there, as here, the
people seemed to feel his death gen.
eral bereavement, and the whole COM
munity turned out to do honor to him
and to show sympathy with his family.
''He was laid to rest," said the
speaker, sin historic ground. His
grave is on the sunny slope of a hill,
just across rivulet. Here was the
home of Tecumseh, the great Indian
warrior here the military genus and
and prowess Of the chief defeated St.
Clair and his army most disastrously /;
and all around our sleeping friend, lie
thIckly buried the remains of dead hero
es who fell in that conflict. The memory
of the noble man who was borne from
Kirksvllle to find there his last rest,
will do no dishonor to the surround
lngs. May the God of the widow and
orphan keep watch and ward over the
bereaved little family. C.
On Monday last, in response to
kind invitation we had the pleasure of
dining with Mr.. Geo. Rice, at his com.
Portable and hospitable home a short
distance northwest oftown. Mrs. Rice
furnished an excellent dinner after
which we took a stroll over the farm.
In every direction were evidences of
thoughtful industry and enterprise.
Mr.. Rice is not only careful and in
telligent cultivator of the soil, but has
also engaged in the breeding and rais-
lug of thoroughbred short horns. of
which ne has fine herd. Another
prominent feature of the farm is the
fine young orchard of two thousand
trees, consisting of Ben Davis, Wine
Sap, Jennet and Willow Twigs. These
trees come from the fine nursery of
Charles Patterson, and are now five
years old and just beginning to bear.
The trees are thrifty and show that they
have been handled intelligently. The
Willow Twlg,it was thought, might not
do well. in this latitude, but the sample
given US to hang up in the GRAPHIC Of
fice, are as fine as we ever saw. One
small branch has six large perfect ap-
pies on it.
Friday evening NJ. L. Bunnell gave
several of his friends an oyster supper
