Tur manifestations Of regard at the
f,neroI of William DOsch preference 10
whose death was made in our last l
issue( were unusually marked on {
THURSDAY. About twenty friends
came down from Philadelphia, among {
them the pastor of his church, Mr.. |
TncIow. who paid touching tribute to
the merits Of the deceased, and also the
choir who sang some excellent music,
that Of " Nearer My God to Thee, at
the crave being especially impressive.
THE floral tributes were many and
beautiful. among them being either,
Ivre cross, wreath and scythe and
sheaf of wheat.
ONE of our property owners objects
to putting water in because he wants
to leave the property just like his
father did when he died half century
AGO. This was on the same principle
| Ofthe man who would not renew his
wornout pavement because his vener-
able father put it there. The prop |
| ertv was perhaps among the best |
| cared for in the days of its founder, |
but it should be remembered that the !
last half of the 10Th century has |
wants that were never dreamed OF IN
the first. There are more cases than
one that the index finger of progress
is pointing at, admOnitory.
A. l.. HUDSON, one of our successful
fruit growers, says in reply to Mr..
Browns statement in our last issue,
that any grower who plOws his Or
ehard in March ought not to have any
| ;- hi. uniform
|. tice to thoroughly plow his Or
, chards in March before the h0rous
roots start to grow, so as not to tear
and bruise the small feeders OF the
trees. Mr.. Hudson generally has
, peaches whenever anyone else does,
, but the experience of many practical
! peach culturists is that there IS more
. danger from frOsts in newly ploughed
s ground than where it has not been dis
E turbed the latter by greater radiation
dissipating, in a measure, the effect OF
the frost.
1 THE Independent COrnet Band, col,
: ored, of this tOwE Tor rather eight OF
= them. the number wantedl, left on
:. Saturday for Baltimore to commence
! on seven months engagement to
play for O'Brien's Circus, receiving, 1t
is said. SO per week. The most o.
.g these men are married and had good
)e situations, but. when the engagement
re came it was met very much like tha
IN of a military order, dropping all anC
&c following their excellent leader, Hiram
e. Johnson, on short notice. A numbe
of their friends were at the depot t.
u see them off, and there was som
o. weeping, especially among the wive
81 and children of the departing hus
~ bands. This is a good band, and W
- shall miss them on our public occa
n siOns.
