FATHER" HANCE.
The Record of Long and Remarkable
Cnreer of usefnlnnsh.

"Father" Samuel Hance died at his
residence Mt Booths Corner, Delaware
county, Pa, Friday, in the 95th year
of his age. He had been unwell for
some time and suffered considerably
from gangrene of the feet His death re-
suited from general debility. He was a
local preacher of the Methodist Episco-
pal Church and was called "father" be-
cause of his great age. He was a mem
Der Of Sloan Church. For many years
he had been in the habit of preaching
on Brandywinc summit camp-grounds
the Sunday preceding the opening of
camp. His wife and several children
survive him.
Just before Mr.. Hance died he said, "Do
not say too much about me when am
gone | have lived many years but they
have not all been good" He had often ex-
pressed a desire that he would not be de-
ltrious with fever when his last moments
came and this desire was realized. Though
weak in body his mind was clear and ex-
prcssiOns Of calm trust and cxuberant iuv
escaped his lips MS he lay breathing slower
and slower as his life ebhed away. He
said lac was gong home and he babe an
aifcrtionato farewell to his wife and friends,
bidding them join him ON the other shore,
then smile, almost scraphic in its heav-
enly peiCe. came over his face and the
aged soldier of the Lord passed away to
receive the reward of life well spent.
The last week of his life was very
happy one, despite his pain aud weakness.
On Wednesday, evening prayer meeting
was held at his house at his request, and
the happiost one in the party was the
white haired saint in the reclining chair iii
which he spent the days of his illness. He
praised cod, and his face, one of the
visitors said. reminded him of tho nara
ton III the Acts of the Apostles where it
stated Stelheu's face shune like that of an
angels. Is the visitors were about to de-
part the sufferer said he probably would
not see them again on earth, but would
moot them in GLORY.

Coventry Centre is the only village in

An alternative plan would be to uti-

the joint watershed OF the Moswansicut

West IL he would vote for the trolley at
the next meeting IL tho committee re-
ported that the company would not grant
transfer tickets.
Alderman West said he could not say
how he would vote at that time; he might
change his mind. as Alderman Winship
had done since the vote on the trolley
for the Pawtucket route.
An amendment was introduced whic h
reserves to the city and company alike the
rights and privileges they now enjoy.
The amendment was adopted.
The Ordinance Adopted.
The vote was then taken on the pas
sage of the ordinance and II was passed
by the following vote:
Ayes,Aldermap Ballou. Burrows, Fuller. Har-
ris Little. Olncy, Rounds and Winship-H
Nays-AldermcD Nc ju nness and West
The Pawtucket Route.
The ordinance granting the Union Rail
road Company permission to operate its
cars by electricity on the Pawtucket
route was passed by the same votes as
was the Elmwood route ordinance.
Alderman Burrows moved to reconsider
both votes and Alderman Winship moved
to lav that motion on the table.
Alderman McGuiness raised the point
of order tnat the vote to reconsider was
not made in the correct way, as the two
votes were not taken together and could
not be considered together, and while he
had the floor he gave two separate notices
that he would at the next meeting move
the reconsidera ion of the votes.
A Little Fllibustering.
Alderman Winship, In order to finish
the matter up at this time. moved TO ad-
journ TO 8:45; it as then $50.
Aldermen McGuinness got the floor
and attempted to debate the question.
Alderman Winship claimed that he
could not debate a motion to adjourn.
The char ruled that the motion u adj
Journ to a time certain was debatable.
Alderman McGuinness then spoke fol-
fifteen minutes to kill time and the pro
posed amendment was not taken. At the
close of his remarks he moved adjourn
ment.
Alderman Burrows moved as ar
amendment that the board adjourn K
Friday, Oct. z. at 9 o'clock. The amend
ment was carried by a vote s to 2, Alder
men McGuinness and West alone voting
| in the negative.
