HlNessURGH.
The lack of psrmanency In American
rural homes is often commented upon and
deplored. The homes that are a centre of
culture and refinement and political and re-
liz ious influence In any community for half
a century are rare. Yet such q home has
just broken up in this town, and the veneer
able father and head has moved away at
the age OF 81 to spend the remainder OF
his life amid other scenes and associations.
The whole community feels the loss, but the
change strikes with deeper force and mean
ing those who have been more closely con-
nected by association or family ties, and who
have known more fully Of the bensficent ntlu-
enos which has emanated from that homo.
The cause of this change was the death Of
