A Good Story Of Lincoln.

There appeared in Washington paper
the other day the following advertise
ment -
Wanted a gentleman and wife,
old residents of Washington, half pew,
or two seats, in St. Johns Episcopal
Church The best of social references Civ
en-"
This willingness to give social reference
to secure the privilege of worshiping in
st. Johns Church reminds me of story
of President Lincoln. One day during the
war, young officer called upon him to
secure an appointment in the army, and
brought with him letters of recommended
tion signed by all the F. +. VS. in the DIS
trict of Columbia. There had been no
application for Office before President Lin
coin so strongly supported by the aris-
tocracy, and, turning to the young man, he
told him that he would give him the ap-
pointment, and handed him back the pa
perS.
Don't you want to place the papers on
| file?" asked the office-seeker. II supposed
| that was the CUSTOM"
"Yes, that is the CUSTOM" said President
Lincoln; "but you had better take then

Marriage of Juveniles.



Charles Nourse and Nellie Shattuck got
married town meeting day. The interest
ing part of this story is the reported fact
that the boy is but IA years old and the
girl only l3. The girl is the daughter of
the late Samuel Shattuck, both parents be-
ing dead. She lived with her aged grand
mother on the old Shattuck place in the
south part of Wheelock. The boy is son
of Frank Nourse who lives just opposite
the Shattuck place and is employed to car
~ on the farm. The children went to
West Concord to get married and when
they came home told what they had done
and the elder Nourses have undertaken the
job of nursing them till they are of age
The Shattucks are nice family. The
Nourses came from the pine scrubs of Lit
Teton year ago, and some think the old
man engineered this whole business. The
guardian of the girl is looking the matter
up. Either the children lied, or forged a
certificate, or the one who married them
did not realize what he was doing. The
law is quite strict about giving certificates
to or marrying minors.
