Death of Mrs. E. ]. Lawyer.

To say that our citizens we're shocked on
Monday last by the announceme nt of the death
of Mrs. Mollie, wife of Mr.. Edwin j. Lawyer,
of this city, does not express the feeling that
prevailed On Friday she was unwell, and
was said to be suffering from slight attack of
pneumonia. On Monday morning, about
TO- 80, her husband left the room, after giving
her some medicine, to attend to something
about the house. Shortly after he returned
and found her unconscious. Dr. Shipley was
summoned but was unable to relieve her, par
alysis ofthe heart having ensued. The funeral
took place on Wednesday afternoon at Grace
Lutheran Church, and the remains were in
tered in Krider cemetery, Rev. p. Ii. Miller
officiating, assisted by Rev. J. U. Asper.
The pail bearers were Geo. r. Gehr, George
f. Sharrer, Upton l.. Reaver, B. F. Grouse,
Charles " Wantz and Milton Schaeffer.
A friend, who knew her worth, sends us the

The sudden death of Mrs, Edwin j. Lawyer, on
last Monday. has cast gloom over our little city.
How sad 10 feel that such beautiful life should end
carly, yet many seeds of kindness, sowl with
lavish hand, will live and grow and blossom in
grateful hearts to perpetuate the memory of its
many virtues. Mrs Lawyer was highly esteemed by
all who knew her-the church and Sabbath school
for her devoted and active interest In their work;
her numerous friends for her courteous manner,
amiabe disposition and pleasant companionship:
the whole community for her hospitality. kindness,
sympathy and liberality: her family near and dear
dening joy-a personifcation of the beautiful, the
contemplation of which corrects, elevates, reiines.
To the husband who freely gave her his own hearts
rich treasute-feeings. confidence and love-we
offer our sympathy and trust that the sweet promise
of immortality will throw ray of sunlight over the
clOud of his deep sorrow.

The Battle of Gettysburg.

1t is to be regretted that Odd Fellows Hall
was not filled on Monday evening last to hear
the lecture on the Battle of Gettysburg by W.
l.. Seabrook, Esq. From the start until the
close the speaker retained the earnest atten-
ton ofthe audience. The large plat of the town
and the surrounding country added much to
it and enabled the audience TO ses how the
various commands were located. Seminary
Ridge. Round Top, Little Round Top, Culp's
Hill, Cemetery Ridge, and the various roads
leading into the town were accurately given.
His description of the march of the Confed
crate army across the Potomac, the massing
OF the Union army, the personal bravery of
the several commanders on both sides, the
heroism of the men, the charge on Round Top
and Culp's Hill, the fnsilade of cannon and
musketry, the shrieks OF the dying men and
animals being heard above the roar of the
battle, was thrilling and stirring. When he
a,lsded to the part taken by Col. VIM. P.
Maplsbg asl the daring of Col. S. X. Herr
the audience showed their appreciation by
applause.
The lecture eyinced studious research and
personal observation, and was delivered in a
pleasing manner.
The entertainments was given for the bene'
fit of the Fire Department and Band. Before
the lecture the Band gave two select pieces

Our Easter holidays we're exceptionally
bright, and were much enjoyed by all. Eggs
for the occasion were plentiful, but we heard
nothing of tho ''bully."
Our truckers are putting in their factory
peas, planting early potatoes and gardening.
The public roads have put on different
appearance, and the mud has disappeared.
The growing grain looks very fine, generally
speaking, and those who sowed meadow ground
in timothy alone last August will have fair
sets of grass.
Wm. Bloom, of Bird Hill, and Miss Catha-
rjne Frizzell, of Bloom were married at
Pinksburg parsonage on the 9th ultimo, by
Rev. w. J. Floyd. Also on Sunday last,
April LIST, Leonard Frizzell and Miss Alice
Carr, both of Bloom, were married by Rev.
VIM. Franklin, at his place of residence in
Franklin district. The happy couples were
serenaded in good style by the ealathumpian
band ofour community. The band was kindly
treated in each case.
Moving is busy order just now, but we
believe there will be several houses standing
idle this summer.
Joseph ]. Brandenburg, of Deer Park cir
