country home, near town, on the
Clarksburg road, last Thursday
evening, was a most enjoyable
affair. There were about %
couple who drove out in carriages,
and enjoyed the pleasure of dancing
and games of all kinds. The house
was beautifully decorated with a
fine selection of flowers, and the
lawn made most striking picture,
being illuminated with japanese
lanterns of all kinds. At the prop
er hour a fine assortment of elegant
refreshments were served, and it is
useless to say that the guests did
ample justice TO it. Misses Alice

SUDDEN DEATH Capt. JAS. L..
Love, who lives on a farm near
Brighton, came to town Saturday TO
witness the proceedings of the Re-
publican County Convention. Dur
ing all day, aud up to the time we
bid him good bye Saturday night
about p. m, be was in his usual
good health, and no one to have
looked at him would have thought
that he would be summoned hence
by the Angel of Death. 1t is true,
however, that in the "midst of life
we are in death" as is fully exem
plified in the sudden death of our
friend and neighbor, which occur
red in his room at the Kline House,
sometime between 3 and a. m.
Sunday morning, from what the
doctors pronounce heart disease.
About that hour DIR. Barbee was
called to see him, and administered
10 him. When the Doctor departed
he seemed to be resting easy, and
no one believed he was SO near
deaths door. The deceased was a
big hearted man, kind and gener-
Gus to fault; he is the owner of a
a good farm near Brighton, and
was well TO do. He leaves a wife
and several children to mourn his
death. His many friends in this
place join with the REGISTER in ex-
tending their deepest sympathies to
the bcreaved family. His remains
were taken to his home on Sunday
evening. and were buried on Mon
day, in the Oliver burying ground,

Quoting at the house, and the G. A.

We occasionally hear some one
complaining of the dry weather and
heat in Point Pleasant. Here is a
comparison of days it rained last

the months of July and August.
In '93 during the month of July we
had rain as follows: The 1, s, IL,
