The protracted meeting which was
held in our village by the NJ. E.

highly respectable citizens were re-
ceived into the church.
La grippe seems to be assuming an
epidemic form in our vicinity.
Mr.. Aaron Fulk, one of our time
honored citizens, died at his late res
idenee near this place, on the I2th.

Farewell, dear husband, thou art gone,
From earth to dwell near heaven sthrone;
II miss you; lonely | shall be,
Till in heaven we each other see.
Farewell father, to us so dear,
Thy counsels, smiles, and kindness rare;
How can we forget thee, father,
We who have lived so happily together.
We miss thee every night and day,
Since thou hast been taken away;
But we hope TO meet thee again,
Where there's no more parting or pain.
Well meet thee on heavens bright shore,
Where there will be joy forevermore;
Well cast our crowns at Jesus feet,
Where our embraces will be sweet.
