OYANoocK, Va, January Is. 1890.
The grippe is raging in nearly every part
of the Eastern Shore. many persons in
this town being confined to their rooms.
In some cases it has developed into ma
lienant type of pneumonia. No deaths

SUDDEN DEATH.
Captain John p. McMath, q highly-re-
spected and widely-known citizen of Ac-
comac, died very suddenly several days
ago at his home at Onley station, in the
eighty-first year of his age. Captain Nc
Math spent his early years on the sea and
had seen much of the world. He was a
the Southern Methodist Church. He was
also member of the Masonic fraternity,
by whom he was buried.
Miss Lizzie Weeks. who has for a number
of wears been teacher in the Wacha-
preague public school, died recently of
consumption. aged about thirty years.
She was graduate of the Michigan State
University, and was a lady of rare virtues
and accomplishments.

lie Cato, in Eleuthera, one of the Bahama
Islands. DIR. lie Cato, after graduating in
medicine. left Accomac four or five years
ago for the Bahamas. hoping to arrest the
progress of consumptive tendencies. He
has been getting rapidly worse for several
months, and last week his cousin, DIR.

A young colored woman died in this
town Thursday night. Her husband, find
ing that she was about TO die, left for parts
unknown. The sister of the dead woman
applied TO some of the white citizens OF
Onancock and soon succeeded IN raising
enough money to give the body decent
burial. The negroes refused 20
contribute one cent and only
one or two assisted in burying the body.
The only reason assigned for such conduct
on the part of the colored people Is that
the dead woman did not belong to one of
the numerous societies that exist among
them here.
The weather is colder than it has been
during the season, and this is in fact the
only wintry spell we have had since last
March. kALLIAs.

AGED NINETY-sEvEN.
Joseph Karckzouski, o Polander who
came to the United States in 1885, died at
his homo at Spring Hill. in Augusta county,
on the oath instant. aged nlnety-seveny years.
He often entertained his neighbors with the
narrative of his early life. He was III the
French army when Napolean invaded Rus
sia. He was afterwards exiled by the Rus
sian Power into Siberia and escaped to tins
country at the time stated. Some time be-
fore 1861 he came to Winchester. Va. and
there volunteered in the Contlnentals,"
a company of Virginia Infantry that enter
ed the Confederate service. After the bat
tie of the Second Manassas he was detailed
to work at his trade. shoe-making. at
Stanton. The war over, he settled at
Spring Hill, in Augusta county, where he
worked at his trade as long as his strength
would permit. He accumulated a small
property, which is inherited by wife (the
third and children who survive him. he
was we'll respected and every attention
paid him and his family by the commu-
nifty.
COURT MATTERS.
The monthly term of Augusta County
Court commenced yesterday. This is a
grand Jury term. matter of first i'm
portance which came before the court was
the application of the district road COM
mssioners. who recommend that the
county shall supply the district road
boards with stone-crusbers in order that
the work of macadamizing the roads may
be commenced in a more rapid manner
than they are now able to exercise. The
recommendation will doubtless be carried
out.
The weather is again clear and spring
like. Some of the growing wheat looks
well. but much of it does not, and the
prospect at this time for as full a crop as we
have had for the past three years is not
GOOD CAxT0N.
