and oyster supper given by Mr. = 7.

Jackson on the night ofDoc. 27th' 1877.
Mr. Lonas. IN this. like all other things,

best his rooms we're expressly arranged
for this special occasion. The supper was
fine hest Of the kind that money could pur-
chase The arrangement Of the supper
was under the direction Of Mr.. Lonas' sis
ter. Mrs. Hannah McQuain.
After supper Prof. Whlssen's string
band from EdInburg, Va, took their po-
sition on the stage, and all parties who
wished to take a part joined in the dance,
tbose who did not dance, retired to an
other part Of the spacious ball and spent
the evening in conversation.
Al eleven o'clock the dancing ceased
and the guests were again INVITED to the
table where dainties were served.
The following ladies and gentlemen
we're present

Emma Campbell, strasburg; Miss leila

After several pieces of music by the
band the company all dispersed, all agree
ing that they had spent the evening most
pleasantly. One noticeable and marked
feature of the evening was the absence OF
wine or any kind of strong drink.
Wishing to Mr. Lonas success in life
and that he may never be less happy than
now. Goodnight. X.

Christmas at st. Andrews Sunday
School-Mt. Jackson.
The pews Of St. Andrews chapel
Were filled with goodly throng
And they waited to hear
(As the hour drew near
The childrens sweet chorus and song.
Just ere the rail Of the chancel
Hung an evergreen cross, in outline;
And the chancel Recess
Had its own Xmas dress,
And the church decorations wero line.
But the fairest sight, there, to the children
Was an evergreen stand for the school
Full Of presents for all
Who had answered roll call
And bringing in joy OF the yule.
The impressive Episcopal service
Rendered thanks for blessings then past
The most skeptical heart
Could but join in its part
In the prayer that those blessings might
last.
The choir gave beautiful music
And the carols by the children sung
Seemed more beautiful, far,
Than many that are
Sung by skilled singers not 50 young.
Then the little girls class went forward
To render n Christmas song
And they sang it 30 well
That this pen cannot tell
How much praise to them doth belong.
Then the presents were handed around
And each child got something to please,
So the school celebration
Came to its destination
Having passed with pleasure and case.

On the first Of January, 1888, the Balti-

for passage for thirty days, including day
Of sale. They will be sold for all trains

that their introduction will bring about

From notices that appeared from time
to time In this paper, as well as from the
great anxiety and constant inquiries of
many friends, it was known that DIR. X.
b. Carter, Of Forestville, this county, and
a brother of DR.. D. D. Carter, Of this place,
was lying dangerously i'll Of typhoid fe-
yer. For many weeks the heartstrlcken
relatives and friends who surrounded his
bed, and with the most devoted love Ia
bored to assist the brave, vigorous young
spirit IN its terrible struggle for victory
over the last great enemy, passed through
the terrible ordeal as they watched the
alienation between hope and dispair.
But the fat had gone forth. the end had
come, and Robt. b. Carter, surrounded by
those who so dearly loved him, calmly
passed from the troubled scenes of earth,
to the long, long rest Of death. Thus on
Friday, Dec. 10th, 1887, at the early age
of 80 years, died Dr.. X. b. Carter. Four or
FIVE years previously he located in Forest
vile, where he soon built up large and
lucrative practive, and made an entire
community his friends almost at once
The deepest sympathy Of all goes out to
his deeply gieved mother, sisters, and
brother.
His remains we're taken TO Hancock
Md, his native place, for interment.
