life. He spoke, too. of his absent
son, who was speeding to his bed
side, all too late. Mrs Gresham sat
by the bedside, smoothing his few
cred brow and occasionally reading
to him from the Bible passages
which he loved.
AS the end approached his pulse
became hardly precoptible. Grad.
ually his eyes glazed and closed.
Mrs. Gresham, with noble and he
roic fortitude, continued to read the
words Of the gospel to her departed
husband. Her daughter and som
in-law stood with bowed heads at
the side of the couch.
AT lib o'clock his breathing
ceased, PEACEFUL shadow passed
over his pale countenance, his
pulse flickered, and the sorrowing
family were in the presence of
death.
Walter Quinton Gresham was
born near Louisville, Harrison
county, Indiana, March II, 1882.
He was educated in country schools
and spent one year in the univer-
sity at Bloomington, Indiana, but
was not graduated. He studied
law and was admitted to the bar
in 1853 and became a successful
lawyer. He was elected to the leg
islature in 1850; resigned in 1861
and became lieutenant colonel OF
38th Indiana Regiment.
| After the fall of Vicksburg he
was made brigader general Of vol
unteers. He received q severe
wound at the battle of Atlanta,
which disabled him for year and
| prevented him from seeing further
service. For his gallantry he was
made major general of volunteers.
| After the war he resumed his
law practice at New Albany, Indi-
ana. He was an unsuccessful can
didate for congress in 1866, and in
1878 was financial agent of his
state in New York. General Grant
who held him in great esteem,
made him United States judge for
the district of Indiana. In 1869
and 1880 he was an unsuccessful
candidate for senator. He resign

the postmastership in President

horses were tied, mount one of them
and speed like the wind east to the
reservation. where friends and a
fresh horse awaited him.

bars between him and liberty.

crawled through, but Henry is
much larger and could not crawl
through the small space.

a TRIBUTE TO HER MEMORY.

She has. crossed with the boatnan pale,
"The stream which divides the heavenly land
from ours"
She is ''safe within the VALE"
Freed from earth's cares and sorrows.
Those who knew her In the years gone by, ere
disease had wasted her power,
Can recall her many worthy deeds
Prompted by her large mother heart,
and christian spirit.
Her willing hands and tireless brain
Were ever ready to do their part In all the
phases of life.
The young, the old, the grave, the gay;
All, found in hera friend.
She could smooth the pillow of the dying.
The infants wall would cease at her soft
caress;
She could be merry where others were merry;
And grisve where others were sighing.
In the Sabbath school she was untiring and
many who knew her there,
win grieye to bear that her mission on earth
is closed. M. T.. M. .R.

Rings Cut from Diamonds.

Everybody knows how difficult it is even for an expert lapidaries to cut diamonds, not only on account of their hardness, but by reason of their struc- ture and veins, which must be well de- lined before the cutter begins his work. M. Antoine, one of the best known jewellers of Antwerp, has, after many fruitless attempts and three years of arduous, patient toll, at last succeeded in cutting a whole ring out of a block of diamond The ring is perfectly round, with diameter of nineteen milliters (about three-quar- ters of an inch). It was exhibited for some time in Antwerp, and was very much admired. Its value is not given, as the maker will not sell it. Outside of this ring there is but one other ring known to be cut out of one stone, and that is the beautiful sapphire ring in the Marlborough collection.
