OBITUARY,
Mrs. Thomas James.

Mary Elizabeth Murphy was born
on the 10th, day of October 1917,
and died on the 18th day OF May.
1896, in her 49th year. She was the
second daughter of John A. and
Sarah j. Murphy and was born in
Midleport, Ohio, but with her par.
ents moved to Logan in her early
childhood, which place was her home
until the fall of 1894. She was mar
ried to Thos. Z. James on the 22nd
day of May, 1872, to which union
was born three children, all of whom
with the husband remain to mourn
the loss of q most faithful and loving
wife and mother. She was happily
converted when about fifteen years
ofage and joined the M. E. Church
under the ministry Of Rev VIM. Por-
ter. Her conversion was clear and
bright, and with regard to it her
public testimony was, "My conver-
sion is as plain to me as the light in
this room.' She ever lived a true
and consistent christian life, founded
on an abiding and trusting faith in
the loving and gracious Father who
had so wonderously and gloriously
saved her.
For many years she has suffered
bodily afiliction and much of the time
been deprived of attendance at church
services, but through it all she was
ever patient and cheerful and without
a word Of murmur or complaint.
Conscious that she might at any
time be called upon to meet death
without warning, yet she often ex-
pressed herself as having no fears
whatever but was ever ready.
1t was her expressed desire to live
to see her children born into the
kingdom and become members of the
living church, which desire had been
graciously fulfilled ere her departure.
In the fall of 1884, with her husband
and family, she moved to the state of
Indiana where she resided until the
first day of the present month, at
which time she came back to Logan,
expecting to make this her home
again. After few days of most
pleasant intercourse with dear friends
on the morning of May 18th, while
in delightful conversation with her
sister Mrs. Finney, and in the midst
OF sentence, the messenger unan-
nounced, but gently put his finger on
the main spring of life and she was
not, for God had taken her.
The funeral services conducted by
Rev. j. f. Williams, assisted by Rev.
Moore, pastor of the Presbyterian
church, were at the residence of DR..
Finney, after which the remains, fol-
lowed by a large concourse of people
were deposited in Oak Grove Gene

| eN VIEW of the fact that Saturday
4 next, the 10th anniversary of the
Republican party, is TO be generally
observed throughout the country, as
well as at Vinita, a brief sketch of the
party's early history may be interest
ing. On the 22nd day of Feb, 1856. the
first convention, at which a perman-
ent national organization was effected,
was held at Pittsburg, Pa. The call
of the first national convention was is
sued in January. 1t was signed by
the chairman of the Republican state
committees of five states-Ohio, Mass
achusetts, Pennsylvania Vermont and
Wisconsin. 1t was designed to be a
nominating convention, but the OBJ
ject, as stated in the call, was the per-
fecting of a national organization and
providing for national delegate con-
vention of the Republican party at
some subsequent day to nominate can
didates for the presidency and vice
presidency. Twenty-four states res
ponded. Francis p. Blair, Sr., of
Maryland presided, and Owen Love-
joy Of Illinois made profound sensa-
tion in the convention and the coun-
try by his remarkable prayer at the
opening. The session lasted two days
A memorable address to the country
was issued, and about mouth later,
March 20, a formal call for the con-
vention was issued, specifying the
number of delegates for each state,
Philadelphia a. the city in which to
hold the convention, and June 18th,
the date. There was no barring out
of the people. The Pttsburg meeting
could not be a delegate convention, so
it passed the question of ticket over
to such a convention nearly four
months later.
