Look at that collar" said gentleman
who recently moved from Pittsburg to
Springfield, looks pretty clean, don't it?
I've worn it a week. Two hours of Pitts
burg smoke would make it dirtier than it
would get in two weeks here. Springfield
is a very clean town. You have one great
advantage Most of the great shops are
east of the city. If your great factories
were all west of town, the frequent west
winds would make the city mighty black
hole Drive all your factories east of the
city if you want to keep clean"

In Memuriam--E. ?. DODGE.

Died, in Lalngsburg, Septembet 6,
1886, Horace Perkins Dodge, age 81
years. one month and four days.
The subject of this obituary was
born August 1885 in Lorraine county
o., from whence his father and family
moved to Lexington, Mich, in 1854
and from there to Ann Arbor in 1852,
where father and son engaged in the
sale Of books and stationery. On
the first Of October, 1856, Mr.. Dodge
was married in Ann Arbor to Miss
Helen l.. Phelps and to them were
born six children-two boys and
four girls, viz: Alice, Fred, Fleda,
Henry, Maggie, and Leah, all of
whom, together with their afflicted
mother are now living. Mrs Dodge
is daughter of one of Shiawassee's
earliest settlers, Mason Phelps, her
mother beiug daughter of the i'm
mortal DR.. Laing.
Esquire Dodge came to this county
in 1857 and has resided here ever
since save the summer of 1866 when
he was engaged in business in Lex
ington, Mich. For seventeen years
he has acted as chorister in the
Congregational church, and has also
been an active worker in the society,
but he did not make an open profess
ion of religion until during the last
winter, when he formally united with
the church of which he had virtually
been member for years.
Mr.. Dodge was a charter member
of the Laingsburg Lodge, No. aSo F.
and A. M. which was organized in
1868, under whose auspices his funeral
services were conducted, and had
filled nearly every important official
station in the Lodge, but chiefly as
Secretary, which position he occupied
at the time of his death. In short,
there was scarcely an organization or
enterprise of Importance in this COM
munity in which he was not actively
interest, and his place it will be i'm
possible to fill.
But SO it must be. There is no
eulogy necessary. Death came quick,
and, silently closing its cold hand
over his tired heart, it ceased to throb
and his light went out, but not in
darkness. All! no. Beyond the
grave there is purer light, brighter
refulgence and more glorious ex-
istance, where no discordant voices
are ever heard, and where all the soul
shall experince will be perfect bliss,
and all it shall express will be perfect
praise, while love ennobling fills every
heart and hosannas exalted employ
every tongue. m*.
