The death of Mrs. Ann Sophia Pinto,

death was general debility. The deceased
was an estimable and lovable old lady and
perhaps better known than any other cid
loved by all who knew her, a devout
Christian and sincere and helpful friend
to all with whom she came in contact. She
has been for many years an earnest and
conscientious member of Trinity Episcopal
church and was deeply interested in and
associated with all church work up to with
in a few years ago, when she was compelled
to desist on account of her advanced years
The deceased was born in the West In
dies in 1895 and in 1910 came to this city
in company with her father, who was
wealthy West Indian planter, and had re-
manned here ever since. She was the
widow of the late Caleb Mix, who was dur
ing his ifefor many years prominen
underwater and much esteemed citizen Of
this city and the last steward of Yale col
lege from 1888 to 1S42. Out of famil,
of five sons and four daughters, but tive
sons and one daughter survive her: Messrs
James T. Mix, Caleb Mix and Miss Saral

I am something mysterious; bother the brain,
And am quite out of character when am plain.
Though your mind 1 may torture and keep you
awake,
You often seem pleased with the bother make.
In various guises my shape may appear,
Numerous my forms and extended my sphere.
If you ask what's unknown in earth, air or sky,
tell you the truth when say it is l.
The scientist sees me in searching for facts
When he wishes to show how Dame Nature acts;
am found in I've books that wisest men write,
In the Bible you find me in very plain sight
l am dark and Opaque to the eye of the mind;
keep out of sight what you most wish to find;
But should you succeed in making mo clear,
Like vanishing ghost would then disappear
But why should try in mystical way
My features to show and my form to display?
For I'm now in your thoughts and SO plain to
your view
That of guessing 'twould seem there is nothing
to do
