Obituary.

Mrs. Lydia T.. Aey who died at Lawrence,
Mass, the aith ult., was the widow Of the late
Eben Z. Alley. She married ID early life and
came 10 her husbands home which was stuat-
ed on Alleys Island which lie of the shore of
this place. She became the mother of ten chill
dren. nine OF whom are now living, and ail
grown to manhood and womanhoUd. Their
Old home has long since been broken up and
they, like most large families, are scattered in
different parts Of the country and are all re-
,pected citizens. Her home being on an is
land and being remote from our district
schools, the facilities for procuring for her
children even 4 common school education were
largely against her. notm outstanding this she
and her husband managed by hard toll and pri-
walton to obtain !or their children a fair edu-
cation. She was a true friend, kind neigh
Dor and very hospitabIe. Many wayfaring
stranger. who BY stress Of wind and weather,
has been obliged to land on the shores OF the
Island has been kindly warmed aud fed at her
home without any financial recompense. She
experienced religion several wears ago and
Joined the Methodist church and has led a con-
sistent christian life above reproach. Her life
was full Of active and noble endeayor in doing
good to others. Her character was pure and
unseIfish and her influence exerted Itself in
the most kindly and effective way upon all
who came into social relations with her. She
was the youngest daughter of the late Deacon
Stephen and Sarah Z. Hodgdon, well-know n
citizens OF the earlier days Of this town. She
was born in June, A. D. 1929, and leaves be-
hind to mourn her departure, besides her i'm
mediate family, three brothers and two sisters
and several other relatives, who will receive
the sympathies Of the community In their sad
bereavement. 1t can truly be said of her,

Solice Morse.

cannot refrain from penning a few
| lines as humble tribute to the memory Of
su old neighbor, q valued friend, an es-
teemed citizen. He was man of good
| habits, upright character, sound jufg-
ment. clear ideas. Possessed of more
than average intelligence, he was always
up with the times, well-posted on the cur
rent topics of the day; and when he ex.
pressed an opinion on any subject. it was
not q hasty conclusion. but an impartial
| statement, given after thoughtful consid-
Grafton. For many years he kept diary
and wrote regularly to the absent children
as long as he lived. He never seemed to
grow old. He was cheerful, hopeful, help
full to the last. Always kind aud obligine
missed and to many the 22d day Of FeL'
ruary will be lonely day, and his neigh
bors will recall how many, many times
they have helped their good friend Mr..
Morse, celebrate his birthday.
His death, like his life, was calm and
peaceful With his faculties unimpaired,
his senses undimmed. with what seemed the
freshness of youth upon him, he stepped
as 1t were. from this world into the eter-
nal and there remains naught but pleas
ant memories of his life, while there can
not fail to be sadness because Of his death
He leaves a widow. with whom he had
travelled the journey of life for more than
half century, two daughters and three
sons, twelve grandchildren and two great
grandchildren. He and his wife celebrated
their golden wedding two years ago last
December. He was respected hy the com
munity; held in tender regard BY his
friends; loved and appreciated BY his fam
lily He lives BY his good influence still.

The Monumental Curse Of Our Country

At the present time the liquor traffic is
the great monumental curse of our country,
without one redeeming feature. 1t is dia-
bolism unparalleled by any other evil the
most intolerable nuisance that has ever
been allowed to exist in a civilized com
munity. No age, or condition in life is
free from its terrible ravages; no character
or position in society is too exalted to be
reached by It's venomous influence.
Home, religion. education, property, all
the most sacred family ties, even the en-
dearing claims Of childhood, are disre-
garded, and all that is good aud sacred
blasted by that vile monster of viciousness,
the saloon. Wherever the saloon lifts Its
hydra head of criminal horrors it surpasses
any and all other outrages, and shames
into silence all crimes Of history. There
is no other evil or injury to humanity tina,
in its effects bears any proportion to thif
almost universal curse.-From "A Monster
of Vice and Misery in Demorests Fdm,l,

A Sensation in the Deacons Pew.

Some curious stories are told in con
nection with old Puritan church customs =
said Mr.. Hezekah Butterworth TO a Bos-
ton Journal reporter. Some of the old
customs seem very funny as we see them
now. 1t was little less than crime not
10 attend church in those old days unless
detained by sickness. In fact, person
was thought very little of who even came
late to Sunday worship.
Zone Sunday morning in early autumn a
Puritan woman, whose reputatlon for
housekeeping, spinning, and church at
tendance was excellent was belated in her
morning work. She took her long
pitcher and went to the pasture where her
COW was waiting to be milked. This duty
done, she found-for she could see people
on the road-that she hadn't time even TO
carry her milk back to the house and get to
church in season. So she took her long
necked pitcher along with her and sat it
in the gallery right near where the singers
and bass viols were displayed. After the
singing was over and the long sermon was
begun-sermons were an hour or two long
in those days-she grew sleepy. Her long
necked pitcher sat on the floor near by and
near the front of the gallery. She was soon
Oblivious of either milk, sermon, or dog
that came pit-pattering up the gallery
stairs. He smelt and wagged his tail, then
smelt and wagged again, then looked in
quiringly at the unconscious mlkmaid.
He made up his mind very soon, and into
the long-neck went the dogs head and neck
too He couldn't get much milk, and
wanted to pull back and try again.
But he couldn't. His head was wedged
fast in. He pulled and used his paws and
tried to back away. Blinded of course by
the pitcher, his steps were erratic, and
suddenly. to the astonished people below.
there appeared a sudden parting of the
balcony curtain, an almost blood curding
yell was heard and there was fash and
down pouring straight in among the four
unconscious deacons in the deacons' pew
beneath, of snow white milk, longed-neck-
ed pitcher, and milk-soaked, frightened
dog.
For once there was great awakening
in that church, but the poor woman was
nearly frightened out of her wits and the
superstitious deacons were greatly scanda
lized."
