THE SAD DEATH OF MIR GIBSON.

THE SAD DEATH OF MIR GIBSON.
 A very sad death occurred in town on Monday, February 25. Asahel B. Gib- son, aged 69, resident of Cat Swamp district, went into the woods near Hiram Cams house to fell trees between.1 and 2 o'clock in the afternoon. Soon after that Mrs Cam heard tree fall. A little later she heard groans or some one call ing. She followed the sound and found MT Gibson with large tree on him. She could do nothing to extricate him, and ran to the residence of David Som- CTS for assistance. Mir Somers came as fast as possible, but could not relieve the suffering man. By earnest shouting he attracted others to his assistance. All this time Mir Gibson was conscious. They carefully and tenderly extricated the sufferer, and started to carry him home, but he died on the route. On ex- animation 1t was found that his hip, backbone and some ribs were broken. It could not be determined how the tree happened to fall on him, but it probably lodged against another. tree. and in his efforts tc dislodge 1t, 1t probably took an unexpected turn and pinned him to the earth. MT Gibson was much es- teemed citizen of our town, and the sym pathy of our people at his terrible death

CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH NOTES.
 Last Sunday there were seven girls members of the Sunday school who united with the Congregational church on profession, and Mrs George s. Clark by letter from the Baptist church in Worthwhile. The tendency of present thought and action toward complete union in all the essentials of Christiani- ty, among the different denominations, is an omen of happy significance. The idea that an educated conscience in things non essential to Christ's salva- tion, must stand in the way of Christian union and fellowship, is fast becoming a relic of medieval times. Close commit nion and apostolic succession are the only two things which halt some con- sciences in occupying Christian union.
