SICKN NESS.

SICKNESS.
Ex-Sheritl Cooling who has been afflicted
with rheumatism for nearly two years, has
been confined to his bed now for over three
months and is 50 badly afflicted that he has
to be assisted in getting in and out of bed
Mr.. G. has the heartfelt sympathy of the
entire community in his atfliction.
Mrs Sarah Hobson, of Philadelphia, and
daughter of Mrs. Sarah Calvert, of deep
Gut" near this place, has been seriously ill
with that dreaded disease Consumption, at
the home of her mother for some time. and
at this writing death is looked for at any
time.
Mrs. Ella Logan, who has been confined
to her bed for some tine with a severe at
tack of bilious dysentery, is slowly recov-
ering from that ailment, but is suffering at
present with rht uInatism in her right arm
VIM. Il. Murphy and Jos. Murphy, Jr,
are both confined to their house Toy sickness.
We hope for their early convalescence and
that we may soon see them about again.
Miss Emma Black, daughter of Mr.. John
w
her bed by an afflction which we hope the
kind attention OF friends and the skillful
judgment of DR.. Housekeeper may relieve
her of, and that we may again have the
pleasure of greeting her in good health.
Mrs. Sarah j. Lewis, an aged and re
spected lady of this town, who has been
sick for quite while, has improved SOME
what in health. but is still quite feeble.
CHURCH AFFAIRS.
The Ladies' Aid Society of the NJ, f
Church of this place have by their consum-
ing zeal and perseverance raised about one
hundred dollars, with which they have
made the interior of said church look bright
and attractive, by the addition of a fresh
coat of paint, new carpets, curtains, etc
They have also presented the church with a
barrel of coal oil. The ladies of the Society
deserve the thanks of the congregation for
what they have already done, so let them
go ahead and assist the church in her weak
ness, in raising money to pay the pastors
salary, debt which all should feel under
obligation to pay, for every one expects the
preacher to come at their call in times of af
Fiction and death, and who has been more
faithful in discharging his duties to the
church and community than Rev T. B.
Hunter, the present pastor. Some may
think that because they do not attend
church services that they are under no OBJ
legation to the church. This we think
mistake, for such persons would be the first
to find fault with the preacher If he should
fail to drop everything and perform the fu-
neral rites and ceremonies over their rela-
tives and friends.
REMOVALS.
Mr.. VIM. Gibson, who has position in
the Electric Street Car business in Will
mington, Del, removed his family from
this place to that city short time ago. We
regret his removal as Mr. G. was a good cit
izen Mr.. A. Reynolds has rented Mr.. G..
house on Bladen street, lately occupied by
him, and has taken possession of the same.
CHANGES OF RESIDENCES.
j. w. Logan has given up his all (awD
and last and has taken charge of the store
lately owned by Mr.. B. Cooling and pur-
chased by Mr.. w. 7. Richardson. This
change leaves our town without a shoe
maker which loss is greatly felt.
MATRIMONIAL.
Rumor has it that we are soon to lose
one of our fair ones by the hands of a Phil
adelphia gentleman. Luck go with them.
