Frizellburg Notes.

The tower on the church in Frizellburg has
been completed and adds very much to the
appearance of the building. The work was
done by Mr.. Harry Snader, undertaken, as
sisted by Messrs. Warehime, Black and Rob
ert Fleegle. The tower is about IS feet above
the cone of the roof and quite neat in proper
ton. 1t shows the taste and judgment OF the
mechanics The painting was done by a
master of his profession, o. j. Handley, as
sisted by r. Fleegle, as gratutous job
This structure drained the funds of the socie-
ty, but the hearts of the people were set on
having bell in the tower, and to this end
collectors were appointed to solicit aid. On
Tuesday evening last in special business
meeting the collectors reported the following
amounts: Mrs. Kurtz Myers 5000; Mrs
Emma Haines so; Joseph Boss $3.50
and Mr.. o. J. Handley $12.00, all of which
was cash. On ascertaining the surprising sue
cess with which the committee met, it was
determined to put the bell in at once. The
pastor, Rev. G. w. Seilhamer, Casper FriZell
and Kurtz Myers were appointed a committee
to purchase the bell and have it ready for
dedication on Sunday, October 4th. In con,
nection with the dedication, a harvest home
service will be held. The church will be
beautifully decorated with all the fruits of the
season. Preaching at 10 o'clock a. M; Chill
dren's meeting at o clock p. M, and preach

Death of David W. Franklin.

On last Monday night, at his home on Sam S
Greek. David w. Franklin died with that fatal
disease, consumption, and on Wednesday
morning his RENAME were inferred in the
burying ground of the Dunkard brethren of
the Sam 5 Creek Church. The funeral SER
mon was preached by Elder Solomon Stoner,
assisted by Elders Bixler, Roop and Stouiier,
to one of the largest number of relatives we
ever witnessed at any burying, and the funeral
was the largest that ever took place at the
Sans Creek Church. The pall-bearers were
George Devilbiss, John Roop, Jap Englar
and Solomon p. Englar. The deceased was
30 years and II months of age, and was very
much respected by all his neighbors aud
friends.
Mr.. franklin was the eldest son of Elder
VIM. II. Franklin, and on March 9TH, 1879,
was married TO Miss Mary Nusbaum, daughter
of the late Jacob Nusbaum, of Westminster,
and sister to Mr.. Isaiah Nusbaum, of New
Windsor. Six children was the fruit of this
union, four girls and two boys, all living ex
cept little William Pinkney, who died nearly
a year ago.
Mr.. and Mrs. Franklin shortly after their
marriage located on the farm they bought of
Mr.. Hiram Plain, on Sans Creek. Mr..
Franklin improved tins Iarin by purving mp i
building, into which he placed machinery and
a hydraulic press to make cider, bone
crusher and hominy making works, all oper
ated by water power.
A short time ago the deceased became a
member of the Dunkard or Church of the
Brethren and engaged in the ordinances of
the church shortly before he died. Thus ends
the life Of 4 useful man in his neighborhood.

Before adjournment Col. McKellip made a
speech, gratefully accepting the nomination
for clerk, and promised to place the cam

had heretofore conducted them. He also
said he realized the fact that the whole force
of the campaign would rest upon him, and
he urged all to stand behind him steadtastly,
assuring them that when the smoke Of battle
cleared away in November the pile Lof Dem
ocratic votes, we supposed would not be so
high they could not see over it.
The central committee was empowered to
fill any vacancies on the ticket that may oe-
cur, and the convention adjourned-to meet
