MIDDlEBuRY FALLS.

Very few persons in town, writes alyil-
lage correspondent, are aware of the CON
tour of the dam and falls of Otter creek
in this village ut the beginning of the
present century. The reef of rock now
forming the lower side of the raceway to
the cotton factory originally extended
across the creek, making a dam by which
the water was set back from three to
four feet deep all the way to Sutherland
falls, thus flooding hundreds of acres of
land even in low water. By an arrange
ment with the owner of these lands and
the owners of the water power, Messrs.
Painter & Foote, permission was given
the former to remove this reef and lower
the bed of the stream feet. In 1904 the
legislature passed an act giving them a
permit, but not right, to lower the falls
accordingly, and also appointed three
commissioners to assess the owners of
lands who would be benefited between
this place and sutherland falls for an
amount sufficient to raise $1,000 for that
purpose. The commissioners did their
work faithfully, recording every piece of
land assessed, its boundaries, number of
acres. the owners name when known,
amount of tax per acre, when paid, list
of lands sold for said tax and of those
afterward redeemed. The commissioners
record book has been deposited in the
ShalInn 4 rt museum for 81 fa lyppninU hy

The only radical cure for rheumatism is to
eliminate from the blood the acid that causes
the disease. This Is thoroughly effected by
the persevering use OF Ayers sarsaparilla.
Persist until cured. The process may be slow,
but the result Is sure.

WITH THE SAINTS,

AS the year that is past was rolling up Its
scroll of events, the death OF a sainted mother
and loved one Of home and wide-extended
associations was recorded. Mrs. Mary L. Moor
man died at her residence near the Augusta
Church, December oath, 1890, and was buried
the following day In the old cemetery at that
place. beside her husband and her kindred for
generations who there are at rest. She was II
years old, 4th of last June.
Mrs. Norman was the youngest daughter Of
Major John Crawford. and was married in
1885 to DR.. E. q. Norman of Campbell county
Va, who previously had removed to Mt. Sid
ney where he was practitioner of medicine.
DR.. Specie was the third pastor of the Angus
ia Church, and the deceased was the first child
baptized by him as pastor OF that church, in
which, for more than sixty years, she was q
communicate leading an exemplary and prac-
tical Christian life. She became member Of
the church whilst DR.. Specie was the pastor,
and her marriage was next to the last at which
that eminent minister OBLIGATED. DIR. Moor
man. her husband, was much esteemed citi-
zen, and for thirty years an active and valued
physician. He died in October 1852.
Mrs. Franklin McOue, who is so years of age.
is the sister, and the only one, of the family of
Mrs. Norman. living. She visited Mrs. Nc
O0S
meeting which was the last to take place be-
tween them.
For many years. Mrs. Norman was an in.
valid, and for many more in feeble health Her
two children who survive-Mr. William 81.
Norman and Mrs. Crawford Milier-were her
constant companions and attendants in the
household where real piety and Christian
example were ever tho ruling guides in con-
duct and duty. For many days her decline
was apparent and resignation marked. Her
two little grandchildren. 1.-THE babes'' OF her
love and affection. were first to receive her dy-
ing blessing. Embracing her son and daughter,
the testimony OF life of parental care shone
out in the riches of her consecrated work. The
sorrowing days of-watch fulness at her bedside
witnessed the devoted attention of her nieces
whom she had reared. (Mrs. 8. 81. McCue and
Mrs. r. 8. Harnsberger) and many friends and
neighbors as we'll as her faithful servant, Hes
ter.
In the possession OF all her faculties, and in
