Peter Dingess, an old and es-
tteemed citizen Of this county, fell
from his mule near the residence
OF John Hale, a short distance
below town, on last Thursday.
DIR. French was called ii and pro-
nounced it apoplexy, and he was
too far gone to do anything for
him. II appears 81, al = That. MI. lin
CESS and his SON, Lewis, were rid
ling along together, when he spur
red on ahead, until he met with
some parties, when his father not
overtaking him, he rode back, and
found that his father had fallen
from his mule. Mr.. Dinkess died
about seven o'clock the same eve
ming. He was good citizen, and
leaves an aged wife and several
children, together with a host of
friends to mourn his loss.
What has become of the Sunday
School that started out here in
November under such apparently
favorable auspicesg Has the pre-
diction made by 50 many that it
would not survive the holidays,
proved true9 It begins to look
very much that way. We have
been informed that the school has
not met since New Year. Now,
while it is true that the Superin-
tendent has had occasion to move
from here, this should by no
means deter the other officers and
teachers from carrying on the
school. The parents of the town
should take an interest in this
matter by assisting in organizing
and carrying on the Sunday school
work. We are afraid they do not
exhibit the requisite amount of
interest in the matter. They
should procure a good Sunday
school library and do all in their
power to encourage the work by
lending helping hand. We hope
to see the effort renewed with an
increased and stronger zeal than
heretofore. We stand ready to
do all we can through the columns
of the BANNER to encourage the
matter, and hope parents will see
te=the-earlyl moral training Of
their children. 1t is one of the
highest duties they owe to their
little sons and daughters.
