Folk Lore.

The following bit of ancient history
appears in the Wing last week.
On the fly leaf of an old inventory
book in the Office of the Register OF
Wills for Cecil county has been
found the couplet--
MIR. John Young, his hand and pen,
He will be good, but God knows when
This book contains records from the
year 1853 TO 1859 at which period
Mr.. Young was probably clerk in
the office. The records are written
in the same hand as the lines. An
article recently appeared in the
Philadelphia Record stating that
among other relics OF the hoyhood
of Abram Lincoln now in the posses.
sion of a citizen of Atchison, Kan,
is ragged and yellow leaf from a
copy book containing the following
stanza, which was probably Lincoln's
first attempt at poetry:
abraham Lincoln. his hand and pen,
He will be good, but God knows when"
This proves that the couplet is a
bit of folk lore which was brought
from the old country and was general
ly know in We olden times.

Snow Hill Wiped Out.

The most destructive fire that ever
visited the Lower Peninsula occurred
at Snow Hill on Monday night and be-
fore the flames could be stayed the town
had almost been wiped out ofexistence.
Between sixty five and seventy build
ings in the business portion of the town
were destroyed. These included the
Worcester County Court House, Jail,
the postoffice, four hotels. about twenty
stores and as many dwellings, and a
number of stables and outbuildings.
The contents of many of the stores we're
burned, and number of citizens were
unable to save their furniture. All but
four of the burned buildings were frame,
but some of the stores were handsome
and costly structures. The total loss is
estimated at $25O,OOO, only partially
covered by insurance.

Barn Burned.

The large barn on the farm of DR..
Joseph W. Reynolds, at Rock Springs,
was burned on Sunday night together
with contents, including all of this
years crop of wheat, oats and hay and
all the farming implements, harness
and new buggy and sleigh. The fire
is supposed to have been the work of
an incendiary. Mr.. Reynolds, it is un-
derstood, was soon to sell his farm and
remove to the city. The loss will ag
gregate about $4,000 which is partly
insured in the Farmers and Mechanics
Fire Insurance Company of Cecil
county. The barn and contents were
insured for $4,000. Three-fourths of
which is the cash insurance. Two men
were seen to enter the barn about one
hour before the fire broke out. They
escaped from lower door when pur-
sued, but evidently returned and fired
the building.

Grand Opening.

Our new lymph institute had a
grand opening on Saturday afternoon
and evening. The aristocracy of the
"ridge' attended in force. The
lymph was administered free at the
"opening" and its prompt and power.
ful action was apparent. Many of
the aristocratic visitors were leaning
over the neighboring pailing confess
ing their sins in the presence of all
men before night. The great mogul
became so mellow he had to be placed
on ice at an early hour to prevent
decay, the weather being sultry and
warm.
Promptly at half past eight the
lights were turned out, the grand open
ing ended and was voted by all the
eete grand success, and the lymph
of first quality. The students, after
closing hazed the town and frighten-
ed some OF the more nervous women
and Children by making believe an
Indian raid was threatened by initial
ing the savages' whoop when in their
war paint. 1t was all pleasant
little lark of the students.
The institute starts off we'll with
every promise OF liberal support
from the aristocratic quarter of the
fridge"
Quiet laboratorie and a6attre have
been provided where the Freshmen
and Sopbmore classes can pursue
their studies undisturbed. The solid
citizens and business men of the
town are highly delighted with the
establishment of the new enterprise,
and are anticipating rapid and
substantial increase in mourning and
tears in the neighborhood. They are
placed under obligations to the natives
outside of the town for their efforts
which made the new lymph institute
possibility.

The Natural Result.

William Dragoo, farmer near Muncie,
Indiana, on Saturday last went to his
bank and drew out $500 owing to want
of confidence. He took it home and OH
the next morning found that the money
had been stolen and the robbers had also
stolen his horse and buggy so as to afford
a speedy means of retreat like the Phila.
thieves that came out two or three years
ago to Underwoods, near Calvert or Brick
Meeting House and tried the same game.
They failed to get the money but drove
off in Mr.. Underwoods team nevertheless.

communicated.
very pleasant surprise was rendered Mrs. Mar.
garet Ganley on last Thursday, August 3rd by her
friends in the vicinity of Rising Sum- the occasion
being the 80th anniversary of her birthday. Mrs.
Ganley was born in County Roscommon, Ireland
where she spent nearly half of her lifetime having
married Patrick Feeny, who left her and ten chill
dren-six
''lcere in the charchydrd Laid''-
to come to America to seek his fortune Patrick
landed in Philadelphia from a sail ship, secured
work in the chrome mines in Lancaster Co., Pa.
and later came to Rising Sun, Md , and assisted in
grading the bed of the Phila h Balto Central Rail
road. Two years elapsed before he succeeded in
collecting means to send for Margaret and the
little ones. Mrs. Feeny and four children sailed
for America on the sail-ship Tuscarora during the
fall of 1857 having paid Sill for second cabin pas
sage; the trip consuming five weeks and three
days. As there was no certainty as to the time of
the vessel reaching harbor, the anxious mother
with heart and hands both full, landed in Phila.
delphia with not familiar face to greet her; but
as she said when talking with the reporter, "Sure'
though, knew God would take care of us and
sure enough He did, Tor an Irishman, not long
over himself, took us to his house and not only
kept us all night but telegraphed Pat We were
there" Next morning by six O'Clock Patrick was
in the stage and en- route for Philadelphia, taking
the train at North East and by noon he safe in
the bosom OF his family, and the same evening found
them all at Rising Sun. Only few weeks elapsed
till the devoted husband and father died. and only
those who have suffered similarly can realize the
sad condition of this woman. stranger in strange
land. According to her faith, friends were raised
up, and later on she married Michael Ganley whose
name she still bears, though Michael has long
since gone to rest. Mrs. danley continues to &C.
