Farewell Grafton to Cotton School
By VIM. II. CONNOLLY.

Dear Pupils, Ladies and Gentlemen I'VE
now stand upon the threshold of another
term. What its results are, no human be-
ing can tell. That there are and will be re-
suits is as certain as life, but how great and
whether for good or evil cannot be recorded.
The effect of those terms are like the results
of stone thrown into a lake of still water
the waves it makes does not stop until they
reach its furtherest shores. But as far as my
abilities and requirements would permit, I
have tried to fit you for the duties which will
devolve upon you in after life. The world
has reached that point where our lives are
measured by that which we are and that
which we do.
The two elements essential to a successful
life are character and thrift. The first and
best object of life is character. Character is
one OF the greatest motive powers in the
world. In its noblest embodiments it exem-
pliies human nature IN it's highest form, for
1t exhibits man at his best. Thrift is the
excellence of the nation or civilization. It
began when men found 1t necessary to pro-
vide for tomorrow as well as for to-day. It
began long before money was invented.
Thrift means private economy, as we'll as
the order and management of school,
Economy is not q natural instinct. but the
growth of experience, example and fore
thought. 1t is also the result of education
and intelligence. 1t is only when men be-
come wise that they BECOME frugal, hence the
best means of making men and woman
provident is to make them wise.
| Pupils, / am sorry to leave you, but might
I give you consel, I will say to you, try to
frequent the company of your betters; in
books and ife-that is the most wholesome
society; learn to admire rightly-the great
pleasure of life is that, not what great men
admired; they admired great things; narrow
spirits admire basely, and worship meanly.
l have ever been happy in supposing that I
held place in your esteem, and the proof of
it you have afforded on this occasion makes
me peculiarly so. ALI can say is, that you
have ever had, and I trust you ever will have
my honest exertions to promote your inter-
est. can not hope that my services have
been the best, but my heart tells me they
have been the best that could render.
Pupils, heartily thank you for your kind
ness, for my happiness in the retirement,
which hence forward best becomes me.
Here hope to enjoy peace and tranquility,
seeking faithfully to perform, in the walks Of
life, whatever dnties may yet appertain to
me. And / shall never cease, while life re-
mains, to look with lively interest and deep
s0licitude upon the movements and opera
tions of this school, and hope that under the
smiles of an All-wise Providence, it may be
ever just, honorable, prosperous and great.
have the honor, pupils, of having been
your most obedient humble servant and
commander.

TREAsURER'S REPORT.
INFIRMARY NOTES.

PoGA, March 18th, 1888.
Visitors-Ida Boldman, Mr.. Mahnke and
Mrs. Christy,
Dave Culver the idiot who has been an in
mate of this placn for nearly ten years,
died on last Wednesday night, March 7th.
This fellow has been an immense lot of
trouble for the folks here. This is the same
person that Geo. Daum took to the Idiotic
Asylum at Columbus, having stopped at a
hotel on the route and becoming lots of
trouble Geo. gave one of the servants of the
hotel five dollars to right matters. Ha, ha,
how about that Geo? Of a warm summer
day he could be heard following for mile
around, for he was terrible noisy fellow and
of the very lowest type of an idiot, his par
ents reside about mile and half south of
Hamler this county.
In looking over your paper we see that
Anarchist" gives sly puneture. Well for
your benefit, we will state that Mother Rod
dy and grandchild Rosa, ran away from here,
bright and early on Sunday morning, going
to Mcclure afoot. A day OR two after the
old gent skipped out before breakfast and
went to one of his SONS in Freedom. We un-
derstand they are both in Mcclure again.
There is strong talk of bringing them back
as they cannot provide for themselves. These
old folks make their side of the case very
bright. The son to whom the old gent gave
some property, on condition that the son
should support them, told US that he is ready
to fill his part of the agreement. But the
trouble is here, he says he will not support
her grandchild as she is an impudent saucy
child. The old lady refuses to give her up
and this has been the cause of the trouble.
We see that the Richfeld and Mcclure msn
are at sword points, and that Anarchist" has
received a peremptory challeng from the Nc
Clure man. AS you are an Anarchist it would
be well for you to throw dynamite boom in
the Mcclure mans gas tank, and the folks in
Mcclure can have picnic for three or four
days hunting up the scraps. If this is too bar
barious, we suggest that each be furnished
with half bushel of mud balls and throw
them at the side of barn. 1t makes no differ
ence about hitting the said barn, the one
throwing the most balls in ten seconds to be
knighted Sir Correspondent. Another seems
to take dendish delight in burlesqueing
TRADES against the churches and good society
people. This one is boarding house keep
er and is up to ''sunff." He is a first class
deciple of Joe Smith and Tom Pain and q
good eucher player. Avaunt, Asmodeus.
Eddie Dow dislocated his elbow by a fall.
Your correspondent is steadily improving
in health and hopes to be on deck once again
in the near future. Cams.
