The public schools which We're
closed during the recent bad wealth
er have reopened.
The postoffice at this place will
probably remain, under the incon-
ing administration, in the hands OF
the present incumbent, who is an
efficient officer and good Democrat.
A new store to be stocked with
drugs and fancy articles, will be
opened here at an early date. There
is also probability of mantua-
making and millinery establishment
in the near future.
The winter of 1898 will long be re-
membered in this vicinity as we'll for
the epidemic of measles as for the Sc
verify of the weather. This pecn-
liarly unpleasant malady has been
raging here for nearly month and
every man, woman and child who
has not previously had it has fallen
a victim to it. Out of several very
serious cases none have proved fatal
yet.

In Memoriasn.

1t is difficult task at all times ano
under all circumstances to pay mt.
ting tribute to q deceased friend and
the duty becomes more trying IN
proportion to the love and esteem IL
which the departed one was held. s.
In the death of Roena G. Birch,
the only child of Mr.. and Mrs. Z. Is.
Birch, which occurred after O few
weeks illness Of measles and pneumo-
MIA on Saturday, January 21st, 1898,
her 18th birthday, q deeply felt loss
was sustained by the parents, the
church and community at large and
a wide spread sorrow felt which time
alone can eliminate.
Being the only.child of two brothers
whose homes are very near and to
her almost as one, her death has left
q vacancy in each that can never be
filled. Sad, though the occasion be,
it would be sadder had she not with
her dying breath told her mother
she was .going to rest in jesus" "
Her life was an example of pure
sweet childhood. She was modest,
kind, truthful and obedient ut home
and in the school where her death IS
sincerely mourned by teacher and
pupils alike. The influences of a
christian home were shown in her
beautiful character and the sorrow
of all who knew her attest the place
she held in their hearts.
Under the influence of her pastor,
Rev. G. p. Jones, of the NJ. E.
Church, during the revival meetings
of May, of 1892, she was converted
and became q probationary member
of the church and had she lived,
would have been received into full
connection at the next stated meet
ing for the same. A regular and de-.
vout attendant Of the church and
Sunday school, her absence. there
will be long and deeply folt. The
saddened hearts mourn deeply, but
her confiding trust taught them "all=
is well.n
Her sweet life closed prenaturely
and the early twilight and darkness
came but to herald the dawn ofssan-
other and brighter day. Her mis-
sion is fulfilled and she has gone to
her rest, and as the last clod fells up
OH her grave, we weave of deeds and
words of that short life wreath for
her whose name will ever be held in
loving remembrance by her pastor,
teacher, sclioolmates and friends.
The funeral and interment took
rl;tcc on Jan. card and were conduct
cd by Revs. &. P. Jones and Rev. r.
Sanford.

Of Stephen Marshall. deceased, died
January 18th, 1893, aged - years, 5
months and 10 days She died at the
residence of her sonin law, Mr.. Louis
Shreayes, near Bethel church, of
which she had been a consistent mem.
Der for ID years. She was gentle and
kind in disposition and made friends
wherever she went. Those that knew
her most loved her best. She was

Affections.
Death seems cruel, yet tits just,
For it is written so;
Earth to earth and dust to dust,
We all must surely go.
Good bye grandmother we shall miss
In our little quiet home; you,
But in heaven we hope to greet you,
When on earth our work is done.
You have left deep mourners,
On the Eastern Shore;
But they must try to meet you,
And there to part no more.
Farewell grandmother, why you were
We cannot tell; taken,
God workcth all things, in the future
We must pray that we will meet
you some day we'll.
