PHENIx.

Death came as a welcome visitor into
the sick room, where for some five weeks
Mrs. Phebe Andrews had patiently waited
its coming.
There are some very pathetic circum-
stances connected with the taking away
years and great trouble; having reached
the age of eighty five, she found herself
the inmate of the town Asylum for the
poor She had been a good wife, and u
faithful mother. In 1850 her husband
went from this place to California, leav-
ing his wife and three children, never to
see them again. Making a brave and
alone; years glided by, and she bore un-
complainingly permitted ills, which pow
erty brought to her. At last old age and
loneliness came, aud one bitter winters
day she was taken TO the warwick Asy-
lum. God, who never fails to see and
pity, knows of the tears she shed, of the
lonely hours she passed while there.
She had an unreasoning horror of dying
at the asylum, and fearing the approach
OF death, which fear must have been a
premonition, AS her health was usually
good, she came to Phcnix, and was an in
mate of the family OF VIM. II. Smell.
Soon after her arrival she was taken ill
with disease incident to advanced age,
and on Thursday noon died.
Mrs. Andrews was one OF the oldest of
Phenix residents; her life had been blame
less and in all the positions she was called
upon to fill, she LETT no duty neglected.
She expressed great contentment that
her death would occur in the home of
friends. rather than in the poor house,
and in the conte mplation OF this fact her
last days were most PEACEFUL. The fun
cral service will be held ut the home of
her son, George Andrews on Maple
avenue on Sunday. The remains will re-
ceive burial la Greenwood cemetery.

INSTALMENT.

The instalment plan of payment has been
adopted as best calculated to meet the wants
of all classes, although our Certificates can
be paid for in one or more payments by
those desiring to do SO. The advantages
of being allowed to pay for Certificate in
small monthly payments ~ill be appreciated
by the majority of those who wish to visit the
Worlds Fair, and will enable very many to
como who, IL they waited until the opening"
would not have the ready money. Another
great advantage Is in knowing beforehand
Just how much IL will cost, and having no an
noyance or uncertainty TO anticipate.
