FAIRFIELD.

! Monday evening, large company as
sembled at the Town hall at the annual
library meeting. The meeting began
with few remarks by Morris Lyon con-
eerning the speaker of the evening, Rev
w. S. Jones, and his subject, "How far
in the eye Of the law is this a Christian
nation?'' Mr. Jones handled his subject
in pleasing manner, his delivery being
clear, forceful and easy. His speech,
which denoted the most careful research
and study, was plain and simple, his ar
gument to the point and apparently un-
answerable, while the whole was redun-
dant with humor. That this was
intended as a Christian nation from its
earliest formation is clearly proven and
substantiated by various charters and
grants to it's earliest settlers, by the
characters of the settlers themselves, by
the laws promulgated by them and the
| numerous and specific acts of legislation
and conventional bodies. He touched
briefly upon the religious character of
the men who signed declaration of in
dependence and our constitution. He
cited the contest over the resolution to
close the continual of 1876 on Sunday
and it's passage by q vote of ~ to 8. He
advocated similar resolution to govern
the Worlds Fair at Chicago in 1898.
One reason to which he attributed the
non-specific recognition of a God in our
constitution was the clash in the beliefs
of the conservative and rigid churchmen
of the South and the stern and rugged
Puritans of New England. He quoted
Daniel Webster, in his celebrated speech
in the Girard will case, that 1.-THE
Christian religion is part Of the law of
the land.'' Mr. Jones received the thanks
of the audience for his able and splendid
address. After the address, the report

ture in the library.

would seem would be most likely to APP
pear in the contest to have the will set
aside, only two, the sister Of the testator
and niece, appeared. Neither the neph-
ews nor the children who had become of
age put in an appearance in its behalf,
but, on the contrary, he of all 9TH
ers interested to have the will sustain
ed was most active to have it set aside.
In regard to the theory of imbecility, set
up by the contestants, it was argued that
the testimony of those who transacted
most business with him, the last two or
three years of his life, went to prove the
reverse. The care with which he exam
ined securities given him on loans, the
clear, comprehensive inquiries in regard
to the nature and location of property on
the accuracy with which he kept his own
accounts in his memorandum book from
August, 1888, to October, 1889, were all
consistent with soundness of mind. The
theory Of undue influence, which had
been dwelt upon at some length, was
gone over with great care. The jury was
asked to bear in mind the fact that no
proof had been offered to show undue in
f1uence, but, on the contrary. it had been
shown that all the suggestions contained
in the will came from the testator. That
