of the Duke and Duchess.
The sentence of the court was, as usual in
his case, ninty days on the farm. He received
1T with that camness and Indifference SO
characteristic of the member in good standing
of the Ancient Order of A. w. (Anti- Work
ers), and, with most profound bow to his
Honor, said:
"Your Honor, observe that the press has
its representatives here as, indeed, it has
them everywhere else. Now, of course, a re-
port OF Esy case will be made by them. Ordi-
nariy thai would be matter of Indifference
to me. Supreme indifference, should per-
haps say, your Honor. In this instance, how
ever, 1t is different, for from a perusal Of the
morning papers / perceive that the Duke of
Porto arrived at the Arlington last evening
accompanied by his Duchess. This is their
first visit to this country, Their visit was de-
signed to be one of pleasure. l was expected
to add to their pleasure by my presence. OF
course, that will be impossible because OF my
presence being SO imperatiyey required
where you have designated. / would not ask
release from that engagement but | would
ask that your Honor direct the gentlemen OF
the press to omit the mention of my name
The Duke and Duchess will thereby be spared
the pain of reading of my enforced retire
ment, and / can atterward explain to them
my failure to call through resistless press of
business elsewhere" His request was
granted

OBITUARY..


Died in Milton, December Z, Mrs. Sarah
Dougherty (Stone) Jackson. Mrs. Jackson
was u native of johnson and was thirty
years of age at her death. Left an orphan at
the early age of three years, she lived during
her girlhOod most of the time in the homes of
older sisters. She was married May II 1881
and leaves husband and four children. IT
is the testimony of all who knew her that
she was of amiabe and sweet disposition Y
nature and Il sincere and devoted Christian
by grace. Her life was full of changes az d
cares for one so young, but she met all duties
and trials with brave and truthful spirit.
| Since last spring her health has been gradu
ally failing, sinking rapidly toward the last
from consumption of the lungs. For some
time expecting this event she looked forward
without fear, committing herself to " Him
who is able to keep that which is committed
unto him. Very sad it seems that she should
be called from her pleasant home, but we are
cOmfOrted with the trust that she is already
in home happier than any earthly one can
be. Great as is our loss in the church and
community, we feel sure that heaven will be
richer for her presence there and it's attrac-
tions stronger for the loved ones she has left
on earth. The funeral was at her residence
the ninth instant, when a large company as
sembed not one of whom but felt himself
mOurneT. The services were conducted by
her pastor, Rev. E. f Herrick, the choir of
her church rendering two very beautiful ana
fitting anthems. Gifts of rare flowers from
many friends were laid upon the casket, sim
cere, though inadequate testimonies of their
love. Bowling meekly to the Fathers chas
tening while feeling deeply bereaved, we still
would say,
We thank Thee for our blessed dead,
In fields of life, forever led,
And for their holy memory left,
The cheer and balm of hearts bereft.
E. E. Herrick.

Mr.. Bailey was called tn tho nastor-

Mr.. Bailey was called to the pastor
ate. While other villages were divided
on UNCONVENTIONAL issues, this one
had been enabled all these years, by
righteousness on the part of its peo-
pie, to bring the various denomina-
lions to unitedly worshipping God in
one body.
The evening exercises opened with
an anthem by the choir, followed with
reading of scripture and invocation
by Rev. Mr.. lockwood. Then came
the sermon by Rev. E. A. George of
Newport, a class-mate of Mr. Taylor
The discourse was a mastery produc-
ton, with Deut. xxx, 20, as a text.
Mr.. George is a man of remarkable
| evolutionary powers, and has a very
easy as well as interesting manner of
delivery.
heprayer of ordination was offered
by Rev. Mr.. Drew, at the close of
which occurred the solemn and i'm
pressive "laying on of hands" Rev.
Mr.. Merrill delivered the charge to
the pastor, which was replete with
wise suggestions and sound advice.
The right hand of fellowship was eX-
tended by Rev. Mr.. Oakes-a most fit
ting selection, as the two young men
had been in each others company
throughout their entire seminary
course. The words of cheer and en-
couragement were tenderly and affec-
tionately given. The charge to the
people was by Rev. Mr. Ward, who
had been the pastor of this people for
seven years. 1t was a good address,
containing many practical sugges-
tions and not a little wit.
The exercises concluded with prayer
offered by the venerable FEATHER"
Perkins-the young pastor standing
by his side 1t was a tender appeal
for divine aid and guidance in the
work upon which the pastor was just
entering, After singing "Blest be the
Tie that Binds" the benediction was
pronounced by Rev. MIR. Taylor, thus
ending one of the most interesting
and impressive exercises ever held
here. A large number remained after
the close and greeted the new pastor.
Altogether the occasion was a most
happy one and an omen, it is hoped,
of good results to be attained. Mr..
Taylor, who came here few months
ago a stranger, has already won the
respect and esteem of many, and in
dications point to a pleasant and
successful pastorate.
