 The oyster supper of Tuesday even ing was not as largely attended as some of the previous ones have been, owing tt the extreme cold, and other unforesee, causes.
 MT. John B. Fuller, whe three week ago started for Florida, was unable to re main there and started to return, diet suddenly on the cars as they were near ing Wilmington, N. O., Sunday morning 2lst. His remains arrived here Tuesday and the funeral services were Wednesda, p. m. MT. Fuller has been secretary O the Holland County Mutual Fire Insuranc, Co. for number of years, succeeding Clark Holt, whose management was no very successful. It's surplus has more than doubled since MT. F. has been sec retary, and he took deep interest in it success. His close and constant applica ton to business is thought by many t. have seriously injured his health. In al h1s dealings he was just and honorable and this secured for him the confidence and respect of all with whom he came il contact. Generous to all deserving char ities, steadfast in friendship, eonservativ, in opinions, lenient to the faults of others he was loved by many, hated by none While he had no desire, rather an aver sion for politics, he took an active interes and labored faithfully for the success o the republican party. Accepting the nom ination for representative once, he wal elected by large majority. He was director in the national bank, and treas urer of the Congregational society. H, will be sadly missed in the community il which he has always lived, and his rel atives have the sympathy of all in thei afliction.
