WESTMINSTER. MD., April 10, ls9O.-Mr.
Jos. B. Boyle-Dear Sir: For many years
have suffered intensely, on taking cold, from
n very troublesome cough, for which | have
used number of various remedies, and oh.
tanned but temporary relief. During the past
spring was again troubled with the same
cough, and through friend was induced to
try your Pectoral Syrup, which not only gave
almost instant relief, but permanent cure.
1t gives me great pleasure 10 say that believe
it to be the best remedy ever used for the
purpose for which it is recommended. Hoping
that any person afflicted as | was may be
fortunate enough to give it trial, am, truly
yours. EDWARD LYNCH.

On Wednesday evening, April 22nd, at tbs
residence of Mr.. and Mrs. N. W. Steele, one
of the prettiest home weddings we have at
tended for long time took place. The con
tracing parties were Mr.. Samuel Bell anC
Miss Mamie B. Ritt, formerly of Wethereds
vile. At the hour appointed the happ,
couple, preceded by Mr.. John Reed, of Weth
eredsville, and Miss Nellie Bell, sister of the
groom, reached the parlor, where the company
and Rev. H. NJ. Strickler awaited theii
coming. The ceremony being performed
after many hearty congratulations were given
the happy couple, and pleasant chat INDUCED
in, all were invited out to the dining room,
where table groaned beneath n load of good
things. Considerable skill was displayed in
this direction, and seldom have we seen 4
prerier table. The brides cake, which oc.
cupied one end of the table, was very large
and attracted much attention. After this
enjoyable part of the occasion was over a
portion of the company wended their way
back to the parlor, where they were treated
10 some fine singing and piano music by Rev.
Mr.. Strickler, which was enjoyed by ALL The
other portion of the company took to the
sitting room, where the groom supplied all
hands with choice Havanas. Among those
present were Rev. II. NJ. StIickler, E. NJ.
Shipley, wife and daughter, j. N. Munroe,
wife and daughter, the Misses Bell and Mrs.
Bell, sisters and mother Of the groom; Elisha
Bennett, Charles Ward, Tobias Vaughn, Mr..
Munroe Jones and Mr.. Lilly, N. w. Steele
and family, of Oakland Mills; John Reed, of
Wetheredsville; II. c. Luttgerding, of North
Branch; your correspondent, NJ. Robinson,
NJ. Norris and others. The presents were
many and useful.
Robert L. Lee, Jr., gave a birthday party
on Wednesday evening, April 22nd, which
proved quite q success. Some were kept
away on account of an approaching storm,
but those who did go spent an exceedingly
pleasant evening.
Talking about sickness, there is at present
more in this and North Branch vicinity than
ever was known. In some families all are
down with the grip. In consequence of the
epidemic work is somewhat retarded.
While Mr. Z. S. Mccoy, Sr., was returning
home from the quarterly meeting, on Saturday
evening last, his horse stumbled and threw
him out on the wheel, but luckily he was not
seriously injured.
We are glad to see our old friend, DR.. II.
f. Ware, able to be out again practicing, and
hope he will continue to improve, as there is
so much sickness he cannot be spared. He
has taken young doctor into partnership,
and we understand him to be quite successful
in cases he has undertaken.
Large crops of corn and potatoes are being
planted in this locality, because both are high
and may continue so fora year at least. Fruit
trees are loaded with blossoms, and present
indications are favorable TO large crop.
