(Correspondencc0
The citizens of Carrettsville are once more
reminded OF the unstablencss of human calcula-
tions. Last year c. I. Coudray, one Of the sub
stantial citizens of Hiram, erected as fine
dwelling house, with all the modern improve
ments. as can be found in Portage county. Last
week he laid to rest his wife, who was sick only
1a hours. Death supposed to be caused by a
rupture of blood vessel on the brain.
Last Thursday we were again startled to hear
ofthe death of one of Nelson's able and substan-
tial citizens, Mr.. Henry Bancroft He was sick
only 60 hours, and up to the evening before his
fatal sickness was engaged IN his duties town.
ship Assessor. He was an enterprsing. pro-
gressive farmer. warm supporter of home i'm
proyements, an earnest worker for Portage
county's Agricultural, Society, believer in lib
eral religion, sincere democrat. a kind husband
and affectionate father No man in Nelson will
be more missed than he.
This season will be quite a busy one for Gar
rettsville. Several new buildings are now in
process of erection.
The Centennial of Washington's Inauguration
was duly celebrated here by the citizens. the ex.
ercises being held in the new Opera House, ad
dresses being delivered by Rev. Fernald anc
Superintendent Jackson, the various secret soci
eties attending in a body.
The NJ. E. Church has taken a new departure
in retaining from tolling the bell just befor
sermon, which has been the doleful custom c
all the Churches here for years. The pasto
says that he does not wish to have his member
feel as if they were being called to attend
funeral every time they go to church.
I. I. Jackson was reelected Superintendent
of our public schools for one year, by vote {
majority of the bolrd.

Tuesday evening about 9n'clocE, fire
was discovered in the large re riserator
building, at Msutua Station occupied
by J. b Colt IS barn. The flames
soon communicated 20 the NJ. +.
Church, near by, and the two build
ings were completely destroyed. BY
strenuous efforts he ti"e was con fined
to the above limits. AT one TINA it
appeared as if a large portion OF the
town would be destroyed, the calamity
being averted only by the absence of
wind and by the almost superhunan
efforts of the citizens. q. h. Thomp
son was knocked senseless by falling
brick and slate, and badly cut about
the head and face. but is getting along
nicely. The Church wss insured for
81, 500.
