Obituary..

Died, in Almena, September 14th, 1886,
after an illness of little over three days,
Mrs. Sylinda, wife of p n. iced, aged
seventy-one years, nine months and twenty
two days.
Sylinda Brown was born in Pittstown, n.
Y, November 22d, 1914, where she resided
until she was nineteen years of age, She
enjoyed the advantages of the common
schools of that day, and at the age of seven
teen, an academic school at Heath, Mass.
Though religiously educated, it was while
attending this school that she gave her heart
to Christ and consecrated her life to his
service. She connected herself with the
Presbyterian Church of Pttstown, which was
the church of her parents.
In the fall of 1888 she removed with her
parents to Newfane, Niagara County, New
York, where with them she united with the
Presbyterian Church. She was engaged for
some years IN teaching, for which she had
peculiar qualifications.
In February. 1885, she was united in mar
riage at Newfane, with Philip n. Teed, who
survives her. In the summer of 1887 they
removed to Tecumseh, Mich, where, with
her husband, she united with the Methodist
Epispocal Church, in which she continued
till her death, giving TO il the energies of a
devoted christian life; her house was always
open 10 the servants of Christ and she was
never more at home than when ministering
to those who ministered for him.
In 1851 the family removed from Tecum-
sch to Almena, where they have since resided.
When they came to Almena there was no
church organization, and she, with her hus-
band, labored untiringly until there was
church founded and house of worship
erected. Her last work as stewardess of the
church was to collect the salary of the PASTOR
which she accomplished only a few days
before her death, and few hours before she
died. she expressed her qualification at having
completed it. This finished her earth work
and God took her.
She became the happy mother of six
children. three SONS and three daughters:
one only budded, dying at the age of
four months; the others all reached man
hood and womanhood and survive her,
except Mrs. Failing, who died January 81,
1885. Since she has resided in Almena, she
has followed to the grave one elder sister. III
1853, and her aged mother in 1872. These,
together with her daughter and three grand
children. all sleep in the cemetery where we
now lay her to await the bright morning of
resurrection.
They that sleep in Jesus will God bring
with him."

silver wedding.

On the 22d day of September, Js61-
twenty-five years ago-the marriage of Mr..
o. w. Rowland and Miss Mary A. Benjamin
was solemnized at our neighboring village of
Lawrence. This anniversary was duly cele
brated at our residence, on Wednesday
evening of last week, by the presence of
about one hundred and twenty invited
guests. Judging from the way we enjoyed
the occasion, the party must have been a
jolly one. The supper tables were set at the
residence of our neighbors, Mr.. and Mrs. T..
L. Warner, which proved to be very salts
factory and convenient arrangement. A
large number of elegant, valuable and useful
presents were left at our residence by the
assembled guests, which will be carefully
treasured 10y ourself and Mrs. Rowland, but
those who presented them may be certain
that their principal value to the recipients
arises from the fact that they are so many assur-
ances of the respect and friendship of the
generous givers.

rageous that Mentor took him into custody
and started with him for the Jail. He was
warned that Howard was desperate char
acter and that he had better be careful or he
would get hurt. Arriving near the entrance
OF the courtyard, Howard broke away from
the officer saying, "What do you want of
me!" IL want you to come with me-" said
Mentor. "Pll show you what / want of you"
returned the scoundrel, at the same time
drawing razor and striking Mentor across
the abdomen, cutting a bad cash some four
inches in length. Walter Brown. young
colored man, also received fearful cash in one
of his thighs. The dastardly assassin then
started to run, passing down Kalamazoo
street in the direction of the depot and, in
the darkness, succeeded in eluding pursuit.
The telegraph was called into requsition.
dispatches being sent in various directions,
warning officers TO be on the lookout. How
ard was captured during the night in the
passenger house at Lawton and, at an early
hour on Friday morning, was safely lodged
in the county jail. Great indignation was
manifested against him and, had he been Sc
cured Immediately after the sashing occurred
it is quite possible that the only jury re.
quired in his case would have been a coron-
er's jury. Both of the injured men were
seriously cut, but fortunately, neither wound
is necessarily dangerous. 1t was close call,
especially for Mentor. Had the cash been but
trife deeper, it must certainly have proved
fatal.
Howard was arraigned on Friday last,
before Esq. Richards. He waived his exam
ination and in default of $4,000 bail, was
committed to jail to await trial. 1t seems
that it is worth more than three times as
much to attempt to kill a man in Paw Paw
as il is in Decatur.
