Seal Cove.
Jonathan Norwood, one of the best
known residents, died at his home July
10, after a short illness, at the advanced
age OF eighty years. Funeral services were
held Sunday, July p, in Seal Cove hail.
Rev o. H. FernaId, of Castine, spoke
comforting words to the bereaved widow
and children, and after the solemn and
impressive ceremonies of the Masonic
fraternity, of which Mr.. Norwood had
long been a member, the remains were
laid to rest in the pretty little cemetery
by the lake side. The sympathy OF
wide circle of friends is with the sorrow
ing ones. Rev. Mr.. Fernald in his re-
marks alluded in a touching manner to
the death of Mr. Norwood's youngest son,
Fred, who lost his life under peculiarly
distressing circumstances more than a
year ago. The young man, who was en-
gagged in lum bering in Central America,
was accidentally shot by companion
while on hunting expedition. Some
months elapsed before the sad news
reached his friends.

AN OLD SETTLERS STORY.
How Egypt in Hancock County Got
its Name.

its Name.
Ransom B. circuit, one OF the oldest
residents OF the locality known as Beech
land. in Franklin, WAS in the city Sstur-
day, and made pleasant call at THE
AMERICAN office.
Mr. Orcutt Is able to answer the oft
repeated question as to how Egypt, the
scattering settlement near the dividing
line Of the towns Of Hancock and Frank
lin. obtained its ancient name. lie re-
cited the story 10 the editor.
The biblical story Of Pharaoh's dream
of the seven good and seven bad ears OF
corn, from which Joseph prophesied
seven years Of plenty and seven years Of
famine in the land Of Egypt, i ia
miiiar TO nearly everyone. The seven
years OF plenty CAME and Joseph gathered
grain and corn to the store house; then
the seven years OF famine came, aud
Joseph opened all the store houses and
sold unto all the Egyptians
Now as to the application OF this story
to the Egypt OF Hancock county. Way
back during the war OF 1872, the English
men along the coast Of Maine made it
impossible to get stuff in by vessel. The
settlers in what Is known Is the Taunton
district, where the little farming carried
on was not very productive, had a pretty
hard time to provide food for their fam
lies. There was yerItablc famine in
the land.
Sow comes the modern Joseph, only
his name happened to be George George
Butler. Mr.. Butler lived on the point
then and stilI known As Buffers Point.
He had large and very productive farm.
Moreover, Mr.. Butler was OF q very gem
erous disposition, and no ueighbor was
allowed 10 want.
Hence it came to pass that " hen the
people Of Taunton found they had 10
corn or "punkins. they drove down to
Farmer Buffers and were supplied from
his well-filled store house. Among them
WAS Eben Wilbur-"t ncle Ebens he WAS
caIled-who, hen asked one day ss he
drove by in team where he was going,
replied: Down into Egypt, 10 get some
corn And ever since the locality mss
been known as Egypt.

brought in behalf Of Ida Goldberg to re-
COW SIS, 900 damages from Edward
Ridley & Sons for injuries received in
being knocked down and run over by
one Of the wagons of the firm. The girl
had her arm fractured. The defense was
that she was responsible for the acct
dent by her own negligence.
Lottie Goldberg, a sister Of the plain
tiff, who is only II years Of age. was
called to the witness chair to testify to
the circumstances of the accident. She
was such a little child that she was
questioned as to her understanding the
nature of an oath, in order to ascertain
whether she should DO allowed to testify.
"Do you understand the nature of an
OATH"
"Yes, sir
"What is it?"
ut is a swear"
On cross examination the little girl
was asked:
What do you mean when you say it
is a swear?:'
well, it is that I have to tell the
truth"
IF you don't tell the truth, what
them"
THAT would be a sim"
What is a sin?"
"A bad mark from God" answered
the little one.
The venerable chief judge was visibly
touched at this answer Of the child and
remarked, This is a very intelligent
child and perfectly understands the OBJ
legations of an OATH" She was then al
lowed to give her testimony. New York

was called to treat q patient who had
been seized with a severe attack of collie.
The patient was n Of the richest bust

as being very penurious. DR.. Smithers
found his patient hardly able to talk,
but between his groans he managed to
say to the physician, "Oh, doctor, l
don't think you can do anything for me,
but if you can save my life I will give
you $500" DIR. Smithers smiled and
started to administer relief. In q few
minutes the patient remarked to the
doctor that he did not think it was any
use, but if he was cured he would owe
him his life. Six months later Dr..
Smithers sued him for a small fee Of %

So Wornanly.

That the ways Of woman are passing
strange was again proved by an incident
on a Main street car last evening. A
gentleman arose to offer his seat to q
lady who had just entered with her lit.
tie boy. Seeing the seat vacant, she
sent the boy to occupy it, while she
chung to a strap. She was evidently
very tired and would have enjoyed a
seat, but preferred to care for her son
first. Presently a lady left the Car, and
the n standing took her seat. Next to
her was a serving maid with q pretty
baby OH her lap. The lady asked per.
mission to hold it, and the request be.
ing granted she cooed and talked and
played with the child for a half hour,
utterly oblivious Of her W boys jeal.
