AT THE VILLAGE CHURCH.

which he delivered many valuable sug-
gestions. We hope to hear him here

church at Washington Depot.
We had no idea, as we wrote in our
correspondence to THE BEE, last week,
that Mrs Carter had gone to Conneaut,
o., to pass the winter, that we should
feel obliged this week to mention the
fact that when she arrived in Ohio, she
found her daughter, Mrs F. G.. Kelly,
had gone to hospital for surgical treat
ment. Such was the fact and no further
news reached here till Saturday, when
the sad intelligence was received that
Mrs Kelly's funeral was held on Thurs
day of last week. To the bereaved hus-
band and mother the sympathy of scores
Of friends is extended. 1t seems doubly
sad to know of one in the full prime OF
life, 81 years of age, being struck down
SO suddenly. May this irreparable loss
be her eternal gain.
