The famous car Abraham Lincoln,n
which carried the body of the martyr
President from Washington to Spring.
field in 1865, and which was originally
a directors car worth $4,000, Is now
used to transfer section hands on the
Colorado Central railroad. 1t has a
curious history. After performing fu-
neral duty it was bought at govern
ment sale by Ward III. Lamon, who
wished to keep it out of the dime mu-
seums. He sold it to the Union Pacific
and it was used as an officers car until
1859, when Sidney Dillon turned it
into an emigrant car. Since then its
fall in the social scale has been slow
but steady.

OBITUARY.

REHM.-Catharine Rehm was born in Ger
many, in the town called Tulringer, on July
9Th, 1873, died Aug. 18th, 1886, aged 81 years,
l month and "a days. Mother Rehm came
to America about the year 1857, six years
after her husband came to this country, and
has been resident of our village for about
"a years. She married Henry Rehm in the
year 1S43, and unto them were born five
children, two boys and three girls; three have
already crossed over on the other side while
two are still living with six grand children
to mourn the loss of loved mother. The
husband preceded her about l year and 8
months. Mother Rehm was good neighbor,
very kind and effectionate to all, always had
a welcome for her children when they came
home to visit her. She was member of the
Lutheran Church about all her life time,
always at church when her health permits
her to be there. But now lifes journey is
ended camly and quietly, the sun of her life
went down and with her the battle of life is
over. Her funeral took place at the Lutheran
Church in Florida, the pastor in charge of
iciating, after which her remains were fol-
lowed by large concourse of people to the
Florida cemetry, and there laid be side her
husband to await the resurrection morning,
while her soul has gone to join those that are
gone on before to be again united in the
sweet by and by.
And wthey sleep SO sweetly there,
So closely side by side,
And they who were omitted here
Death could not long deride.
That home on earth seems lonely now
While days and weeks BY,
But we will meekly, sadly bow,
And meet and greet on high.
