: 10 On Friday night last, an er
t tertalnment was given at the res
dence of Mrs. Rothrock, for tn
r benefit of the parsonage fund
| Though the night was dreary an,
i very unpleasant, there was quite
good turnout and the occasion
success. Here we had the pleasur
of meeting Miss Kate Aftermath,
from Pleasant Valley, who is teach
ing school IN the hall used by tn,
Knights of Honor, at DR.. M. P
Harwood's. To possess a good ma
tive mind, one is fortunate; but tt
this have added thorough Icultiva
ton and those refined feminine
graces which are so rarely met
with and so highly appreciated
when gracefully blended, is indeed
prize which queens and noblemen
and kings and subjects alike would
delight to honor. Such is the hap
Ply lot of Miss Alternately who as
sumes the arduous duties Of the
school-room in the early morning of
her life.
Miss Bette Samuel, a sister of
Messrs. Jim. and Joel A. Samuel
and Mrs. w. A. Beaver, and who
lived with the latter, died suddenly
Sunday morning of dropsy. Though
Miss Bette had been in bad health
the past year no immediate danger
was anticipated. When the family
arose Sunday morning she was
found to be in dying condition and
soon passed away. Miss Bette
was a quiet, peaceful christian, a
member of the Baptist church and
died with the full assurance of true
peace which passeth all understand
ing. We have known her from child
hood and can truthfully say she
lived and died without an enemy.
Like Job, her life seemed to say,
"Doth not He see my ways and
count all my steps? If I have
walked with vanity, or my foot
hath fastened to desist, let me be
weighed in an even balance that |
God may know my integrity,

lay when we hope to redeem it.
