Death has recently reaped large harvest
in this vicinity. BY the death of Cornelius
Shafer, which occurred on the 10th, this com
munity has lost an honorable, upright and
useful citizen. Open, frank. and generous to
fault. no one ever appealed to him in vain.
He died at the age of SO, after an Illness OF
but two hours, leaving wife and three chill
dren. He was a lifelong Democrat, who
never wavered. His remains were inferred
in Loudon Park On Sunday last.
Your correspondent was shocked and
panied to read in the ADVOCATE of last week
notice of the death of E. S. Mccoy at
Haight. We last met him, then in health, at
the quarterly conference held at Glenelg only
few weeks ago. In leaving, he bade his
pastor goodbye with the remark, Il will see
you in the morning" 1t proved to be the
morning of the resurrection, for they met no
more in life.
A large assemblage met at the residence of
John T. Ridgely on Tuesday morning to pay
the last tribute of respect to his second
daughter, Maize h., who died in St. Louis,
Mo-, on Saturday morning last, 18th, in the
both year of her age, after brief illness of
peritonitis. About thirteen months ago she
was married to j. Hayden Hood, son of the
President of the W. NJ. r. r. The funeral
sermon was preached by Rev. E. E. Shipley.
Those present realized that they stood in the
shadow of a great sorrow. Our hearts are
filled with sadness, and with sympathy for
the bereaved ones We knew Maize, whose
wiAning sweetness charmed those who came
in contact with her, at the Sunday school and
in the home circle. Truly, ''the ways OF
Providence are mysterious.
And so, in the mellow light of the dawning
spring day, and amid the stately splendor of
the silver lined clouds, through which the sun
strove to burst in radiance, was laid to rest all
that was mortal other for whom all the shad-
ows and clouds are chased away in the full light
of eternity.
Ay, beautiful as the sunbeams may our
lives be, if faith, hope, and love combined
shall guide our course. Tendery was she
laid to rest by loving hands beneath the sway
ing boughs of the hemiocks and frs, whose
dropping branches caught the passing breeze
and turned it into melody soft, sad and
soulful-a mound of earth, literally covered
with flowers Appropriate the quotation from
Fiiz Green Halleck
None knew her but to love her"

gloom by the sad intelligence which reached
here on Friday last of the death of Mrs. Hay

won for her inaumerable friends wherever
she was known, and seldom has a death in
this community caused such universal sad
ness. Her husband, Mr. Hayden Hood. is a
civil engineer and son of Col. }. NJ. Hood,
President of the Western Maryland X. X.
