THE CLOSING EXERCISES.

After a cornet solo, sIrisl4 Airs, by
Sergt. McGinnis, the closing adore SIS
was made by MI. Z. e Martin, q few
of whose remarks are here given. He
said it was a pleasure to see the clergy
with us on this occasion, doing honor
to The martyred dead, the clergy who
have ever been true to the best interests
Of the Irish peaple, and to whom the
Irish people have ever and always been
true. We are not alone IN these COM
memorative exercises. The world over,
wherever Irish hearts are found, a tri
butte is raised to-day to the memory of
these heroes. We Irish-Amerjeans
wishit distinctly understood that while
we. extend our aid and sympathy to the
isle across the sea, we yield to none III
devotion to the land of our adoption.
We consider it our duty to aid i'll every
way the struggle for liberty being made
by our countrymen. The Irish people
are justified in using every lasans OBJ

hell, ii need be, to strike the enemy

Last spring Mrs, Charlotte E. Garfield

married Harry Baldwin, q young man
OF 2. She had considerable property.
which Baldwin drew upon quite Eber-

she becarn suspicious that he had an eye
for younger women. Then she drew
her purse strings, and tAree months ago
applied for divorce. Harry promised
reformation, and shewithdrew the suit,
but about that time decided her property
TO her niece, Fannie L., Owens of Cam

tested that the old lady was mentally
to dispose Of her property,
and applied for a CONSERVATION. Tbs

cover the property conveyed to the
niece. It is reported that the old lady

every Irish heart. Is she not capable
