GREEN'S FARMS.

Sorrow will be caused in many hearts
by the death Of Mrs Louise, wife OF
George II. Mills, which occurred last
week. She had been in poor health for
nearly 10 years and had been growing
slowly but steadily worse for some years.
Death was caused by cancer, from which
she suffered excruciating pain. She was,
besides, afflicted with a complication OF
diseases. All her sufferings, however,
were borne with christian designations and
she performed without murmuring the
various duties of her household routine,
SO far as lay in her power. The funeral
was largely attended from the residence
of her husband, last week Thursday af-
ternoon at 2, the sad funeral services be
ing conducted by Rev G. A. HubbeA Of
the Southport Methodist church and the
burial was at Oak Lawn, Leslie and Al
phonso Jennings, Increase Parsels, Ebe-
nezer Baker being pail bearers. Mrs
Mills. once Miss Louise Northrop. as
sister Of William F and George E. North
ron and was married to Mr. Mills about
90 years ago. She was consistent and
csrnest member Of the Methodist church

There was no cigar stumps or ashes on
the floor whatever, as there was no smok-
ing going on upstairs in the hall. There
was not glass broken during the night
and the water which dripped down into
judge of probate Office was not the water
in which the glasses were rinsed, but was
the drippings of the soda water, etc.
When some Of the members of the club
went to the hall to get it in readiness for
the ball, they found it strewn with old
torn papers of all descriptions and was
very dusty and dirty, but, when they left
it on Thanksgiving morning at about
Z 30, 1t was In fit condition for any SER
vices, not as it was found, dirty, but clean
in every respect. IL it was not clean
enough for the folks to have services in
on Thanksgiving morning, the writer of
this item does not know what they should
have done If they were to have services
in 1t in the condition it was in on the af-
ternoon before, as it was simply filthy.
The jolly Jokers showed all the respect
they could to the selectmen by staying
there after the ball was over and cleaning
