Miss Ida Othoson died on Sunday at the
residence of her brother near Sassafras,
where she made her home. For many
months wasting disease had been at work,
and that dread blight, consumption fin
ally accomplished its work, and has taken
one of the most lovely young ladies from
earth. Endowed with many personal at
fractions, her gentle manner drew all to
her. She seemed indeed like fair, frail
flower too delicate for the rude blasts of
earth, and has been only transplanted to
the fairer realms on high. She made friends
wherever she went, and is sincerely
mourned by all who knew her. Her funeral
took place on Wednesday. Rev. Mr.
Truitt. of Sassafras, of1ciated The inter-
ment was at Forest Cemetery.

A Tender Tribute.

Rev. N. NJ. Browne, Governor Biggs'
pastor, during his latter years spoke in the
following tender words at his funeral on
Thursday:
| knew Governor Biggs more intimately
in the privacy of his retired life. after he
had withdrawn from the excitement, the
cares and responsibilities, of his more active
and public service. His retirement was
not to a gloomy depression of spirits begot-
ten of disappointed ambition, but with
the feelings Of one who had served his day
and generation, and with the fullest recog-
milton and appreciation Of the honors con-
ferred upon him by his fellow men. He
never could have been contented in seclu-
sion and solitude. But his, interests in all
that pertained to the welfare Of the people
kept him in sight Of the ebb and flow ofthe
tide Of current events.

DIED IN SAN DOMINGO.

George w. Shallcross, Former Resi-
dent of this State, Victim of
Yellow Fever.
The sad intelligence was received in Md
dletown yesterday that George w. Shall
cross, formerly of this community, but for
the past three years an extensive fruit
grower in San Domingo, had died in that
far off country, a victim to yellow fever.
He leaves one son, Walter, who had been
with him recently, but at the time of his
death was away from San Domingo City, at
which place he died. The arrival of the
lad in New York yesterday brings the sad
news OF his fathers death and burial on
November 28th.
Mr.. Shailcross was son of the late Will
liam o. Shallcross, of Locust Grove. Md,
and was about As years of age. He had
plantation near Samoa, and at the time of
his death was involved i'll legal contest
with the government in which many thous-
ands of dollars were involved.

as day after day he was seen passing along
our streets, it was sorrowfully noted that
his step grew slower and his gait more fee
BILE, until finally he was unable to leave his
room, and it soon became known that he
would not again be seen going about among
the people, for disease was making such
rapid progress, that the pest of medical
skill and all the. appliances of modern
science were unavailing. For six weary
weeks he lay suffering and though at times
he seemed better and hopeful of recovery,
hisphysicians gave little encouragement and
his family and friends were not uDprepared
for the end.
On Friday last he was apparently much
better, but on Sunday grew worse again
and continued to fail until death ended the
struggle for life.
The end came peacefully and quietly,
and as gently as the departing rays of the
afternoon sun fading in the western sky.
his spirit went out to the realms beyond on
the afternoon of Christmas day.
He was fully conscious of his going away
and expressed perfect trust in the Infinite
Father to lead him safely through the
"Yalley of the shadow of death;' and
thus ended the earthly career Of one who
for the past fifty years has been foremost
figure in the history of Delaware.
Benjamin Thomas Biggs was born near
Summit Bridge Oct. 1. 1921. and was the
Oldest of family of six, his three brothers
and two sisters survive him.
After receiving the best educational ad-
vantage offered by local schools he entered
Pennington Seminary N. J. when nineteen
years old and two years later began to teach
in private school. He entered the Wes-
leyan University at Middletown Conn.,,
two years later and after finishing course
at that institution he returned to the scene
of his nativity. having decided to make
agriculture the business persuit of his life
in which he has had large success.
In 1858 he married Miss Mary s .Buckwith
of Griggstown N, J.. and settled on
the homestead farm in Pancader
hundred, where for 25 years he made his
home. Although engrossed in business
persuits his natural ability gave him close
affinity for public life, and from his earliest
manhood he was conspicuous figure in
the arena of state and national affairs.
Until 1854 he was known as staunch
Whig. but after that time became identified
with the democrat to which party he held
his allegiance until his death.
Gov. William Temple gave him the COM
mission of Major of the Delaware Regi
ment in event of war with Mexico in
