The union service in Plymouth church on Thanksgiving morning was not largely at- tended. The pastors of the First and Meth odist churches assisted in the services, Rev. N. G. Axtelle preaching the sermon. The death of Mir. William G. Cornwall causes much sincere sorrow in the home cir cle and among those with whom he has min- gled in business and friendly relations. There was no one to whom the heavenly messenger could come who would be found more willing and prepared to go without fear or remorse but rather with joy and a consciousness that he had fulfilled the end for which he had been placed in the world, than Mir. Cornwall. A life which has borne such rich fruit in It's
 unsel6sh and loving devotion to the good of his fellow creatures and the church of Christ, combined in @ rare degree to the strictest integrity and application of his moral principles to~ his business and daily life, should be an incentive to every young man to emulate him in the sincerity and pur ity of his life in all it's relations. In can truly be said that this was a successful life. Among the political parties Mir. Cornwall was most emphatic in his support of the Re- publican party and faithfully devoted himself to sustaining it, his name frequently appear ing on the ticket for town treasurer. There was 8 large number of relatives and friends who gathered at St. Peters church on Tues
 day afternoon to render their silent regards
 to his memory, Rev. J. H. Fitzgerald con- dncting the burial service. The bearers
 were David N. Clarke, Henry Davidson
 Thomas Stowe, William Brotherton, Henry
 Baldwin and J. s. Ferris.

Supreme Court of ErrOrs-December
 Term.
 The case of the State vs William M Simp- kins was argued yesterday. About year ago MT. Rowe, the oyster dealer, claimed the exclusive right to dig the natural oyster grounds !n the town of East Haven under a grant issued by the town of East Haven: Several oystermen disputed the right and went into the grounds. As test case Wil- liam Simpkins was arrested. The defendants claim that the land is under the direct cons trol of the shell fish commission and the law was such that the town could not control the land specified in the complaint. The State denied this and maintained that the law gave the town the control of the natural oyster beds and the commission was interested only in superficial way. The trial-in the Com mon Pleas was merely formal, Judge Studley making reservation for the Supreme court to pass on. SimpkinazFas tried in the City court and found guilty.
