 The memorial services of the late Rev Thomas A. Kenny were. as before stated held at the Methodist church on Sun day and every seat in the church was filled.

MT Ken ney was born near Newburgh in August 1855, and graduated at the Hudson River Institute, and was highly success full in every parish over which he had been placed He had endeared himself to the people of this pastorate and they deeply lament his early demise. Rev 2. c. w. Hanna of the Congregations church, which church had been closed out of respect for the deceased pastor, supplemented Elder Travis discourse with brief eulogistic memoir of his departed brother in the ministry during his short acquaintance. The flowers consisted of broken column harp, anchor and three wreaths, which were of large size and most tastefully arranged. The pulpit and altar were draped in mourning, the sombre effec of which was greatly relieved by tht lovely floral tributes.
