Railroad accidents always seems to
be IN unavoidable fatality. Certain
ly no sane man would knowingly
run the risk of a collision /; we are
never prepared to learn that "some
one had Numbered" to such an ac-
cident,-never able to realize that a
life has gone out so swiftly as that
of Charley" Dooley's. He was a
genial kind, hearted man !; and a ia
vorite among the railroad boys
who sadly regret his death. The
funeral services were held on Wed.
nesday evening at the M. e. Church,
South; sermon by the pastor, Rev.
Andrews /; among the most forcible of
the many earnest, practicalthoughts
it contained were these: aLet us
remember that we are mortal, and
live" "Living Is dying, dying is
living, if the n be properly analyz-
ed, the other will be properly real.

Obituary Notice.

Cora B., eldest daughter of George
and Mary E. R%amsburg, died in Van
clevesville, w. Va, Nov. 10th, 1885,
aged 10 years, 6 months and 3 days.
For months she was severely afflicted
but a more perfect example ofpatience
in suffering, and resignation to the
Divine will, is seldom seen, until the
frosty hand of death touched the door
of this earthly tabernacle and her
pure spirit winged its way to the
angels. The bridegroom came in the
{" first watch" but found her ready.
Her life was full of sunshine, making
home happy and cheerful. She was
regularly in attendance at Sabbath
School as long as she was able to go.
We miss her. May her devoted pa
rents, brothers and sisters and friends
emulate her pious example, and meet
her on the fair banks of eternal deliv-
erance.
Cora, thou art gone before us,
Where thy sainted soul is flown,
Tears are wiped away forever,
And all sorrow is unknown.

The Chenille Crescent Of last week

county, near the Gilmer line. Work.
man, who was about % years of age,
lived with his mother, in o small
cabin with one door. Workman
had been to a dance, and returning
in the morning LAID down to sleep.
His mother went to a neighbours,
leaving the young man asleep.
Some time after she had left the
house was discovered to be on fire |;
neighbors rushed to the scene, but
we're too late to save anything from
the house. The mother had not yet ar
rived and the parties were endeav-
oring to save the household goods,
unconscious Of the fact that there
was a human being inside unable to
make his escape. The house was
about to fall and the chimney gave
way, when the spectators were hor-
rifed to see the body of a man drop
down into the FIRE place. Workman
had endeavored to make his escape
from the building by climbing out of
the chimney, his mother having fast.
ened the door from the outside, and
the top of the chimney being too
small to allow his body to pass
through, he became fastened in the
chimney and died a horrible death.
When found, both legs were burned
off and the body was terribly disfig
ured.

GAN0T0WN ITEMS.

Mrs. Louisa NJ. Simpson, daughter
of Mr.. Caleb Simpson, living east OF
Shanghai but who had lived in this
vicinity for a number of years, died
last Friday evening. after an illness
of several weeks. She was a bright
and pleasant young lady, and was
quite a favorite in this community,
hence the news of her death, brought
sadness to many here, where her child
hood had been passed. The sorrowing
friends brought her remains to Gano-
town on Sunday, where Rev. p. II.
Thomas preached an impressive SER
nion after which we laid her form to
rest, kind hands laid a wreath of flow
ers upon the newly made mound, and
amid a gently falling rain, we sadly
turned away, leaving her form to wait
the resurrection morn, when we meet
her before the Great White Throne.
On Monday there was another inter-
ment at this place, that of Mrs. John
D. Barney, of Glengary, who has been
ill for about a year. She quietly pass
ed away about ga. m. on Sabbath day,
and went to be with the Saviour in
whom she had recently found faith.
The sorrowing husband and six chill
dren have the sympathy of the entire
community, as was attested by the
large attendance at ner funeral. The
funeral sermon was preached at her
late residence, by Rev. E. L. Wilson,
ofGerardstown. We extend our SYM
pathy to the bereaved family. Mrs.
Barney was in the 9th year of her
age. TEMPLAR.

Mr.. III. C. Kitchen died in great
peace on Thursday morning, Nov. 26,
in the 39th year of his age. Hope OF
his recovery was entertained until
within a few days ofhis death, but as
erysipelas set in he was unable to
withstand this additional enemy, and
had to yield to the conquerer. His
funeral was largely attended on Fri
day afternoon; the funeral services
being held in the church at Shanghai,
where the remains were inferred. Rev.
E. l.. Wilson, of the Presbyterian
Church, preached the sermon, and
vas assisted in the services by Rev J.
R. Pardew, Of the M. E. Church and
Rev. P. HI. Thomas, of the United
Brethren Church.
The deceased was an upright Chris
tian man, and will be sadly missed in
the community, as well as in the home
circle. He leaves a widow and four
children, who have the profound SYM
pathy of all here where he was so well
known. May his mantle rest upon
his sons, and the sorrowing widow
with her little ones have the divine
guidance and comfort through life,
and at last be united with the Hus-
band and Father, in that lovely cline
where there is no death, and the ties
of affection are never severed.

R. G. Hallet, has presented the
Martinsburg Fire Dept. with a fine

also know that some of their fine

FATAL ACCIDENT.-On Monday
evening an accident occurred on the
B. d o. r. r., about five miles west
Of this place, by which Charles Dooley
lost his life. The helper engine, run
by Enos Mcdonald, was backing out
to Cherry Run and was followed by a
3rd division passenger engine, which
had come down with al extra train
and was returning. This engine had
attached to it a caboose, and Anthony
Hedges was conductor and Charley
Dooley brakeman. When he pitched
over Wilson's grade Conductor Hedges
observed that his engineman was run
ming much too fast for safety, and
knowing that the helper could not
keep out of the way, sent Dooley over
TO caution him. Just as he was pass
ing over the tender the passenger en-
CINE struck the helper and both en-
gines went down the bank which is
pretty high at that point. The ten.
Der on which Dooley was at the time
upset and caught him underneath it,
Is supposed, as he was dead when
found. All the other hands connect
ca with the two engines escaped with
sllght injuries. Charley Dooley was
worthy young man and his fate was
peculiarly sad one. He had beer
married a little over a year and leaves
aWlfe, mother and sister to mourn
ms death and their loss. They have
ouf sincere sympathy.-Statesman.

REMARKABLE OLD MEN.-Af friend
furnishes US with an interesting ac-
count of some of the labors of old cit
liens of the county, stillliving. VIM.
Taylor, aged 70, Graded for Thomas
Williams in the harvest of 1882, eight
days; cut inone day 120dozen sheaves
of wheat. He had two sons and two
grand sons cradling in the same har-
vest. Jack Harden, aged 65, had given
up grading several years ago; COM
menced again and made a full harvest
in 1888 and 'S4. Michael Strutter,
COL, SO years old, is an active old man
and cultivates his two-acre-lot. He
was born the property of DR.. Il. V.
Williams in 1892. The doctor moved
tOhis farm near Lexington, KY, in
his carriage, and Mike, then ten years
old, rode a mule. The doctor lost his
wife, and returned to Swan Pond,
Berkeley Co., after about two years,
as they went, Mike riding the mule
back. John S. Files, aged 81, is some
times as active as a cat; he can ride
fast; can set on his horse, drop his
hat and pick it up again from the
ground.
