In the death OF Mrs. Martha Leonard,
we have lost one who was greatly esteem
ed and loved by this whole community.
Many will remember her for her KIND
deeds, her helping hand in sickness ana
her willing self-sacritice for the welfare
OF others. From her own varied expe-
rience OF JOY and sorrow ,sne. knew how TO
speak the helping word and 10 hit the
burden from aching hearts sunshine
and shadows passed over her life, but she
caught the meaning OF life's divine lesson
by the loving service she rendered 10 9TH
ers. BY her fidelity TO duty. by thai
charity which suffereth long and IS sim
kind and by her calm trust in her Heaven
ly Father, she proved her discipleship with
her Divine Master-the best evidence OF a
sincere and true Christian. The beauty
of her life and the strength OF her charac-
ter come from the divine source. With
her sister, Mrs. William III. Durkee. she
found in these later years sweet compan-
ionship and a pleasant home. All that
friends and wealth could do was devoted
to her comfort and happiness. der clos
ing days were serene, cheerful ana hope
fol. With faith which was anchored in
infinite glove, this weil-rounded life OF
good deeds and seli-sacritice passed IN
peace to the better land. Only two OF
the family in which she was born are let
a sister, Mrs. Durkee and Judge Orville
Leonard Of California, who came few
weeks before his sisters death, which &C.
CURED Aug. 10, 1894. Her age was Il
years. Many came to her funeral and
looked on her gracious and peaceful face
surrounded with proiusion Of flowers,
fragrant, rare and beautiful
US Of the good deeds her hands had
wrought and her Christian spirit OF help
fulness-the characteristic OF her life.
The funeral services were conducted By
Rev 5. A. Parker, assisted by the venera-
BILE Rev 7. s. Hubbard. Her body was
tenderly laid beside her daughter FISHER
only uhild-where she stood many years
ago looking thro' the mist of tears into
the grave. But, by the Christian faith,
we see through the valley Of shadows into
that land here tears are wiped from OFF
all faces and there is no more death.

While Baltimore is reviving her old
project of an artificial waterway for large
vessels across the Maryland and Delaware
peninsula, Philadelphia has under consider
alton like enterprise to be carried out in
New Jersey. The main object is the same
in both undertakings, namely to shorten the
routes to the ports of Europe, and thus
to build up the foreign commerce of the
home city. The Baltimore canal would
avoid the circutous voyage down Chesa-
peake bay, doubling Cape Charles, while
the Philadelphia canal would cut off the
course down Delaware river and DelawaI {
bav and around Cape May.
