serves the ideal of its founder, is but
clear unbroken echo of that founders
voice. Thus all charitable asylums, all
hospitals for the deaf or mute. the
afflicted, the lame and the blind. all
consecrated lives in converts, all con-
secrated hearts in homes, are but
beautiful echoes, soft and clear, echoes
of Christ's sermon on the Mount.

the subject in its broader relations. we
may think of it in its narrower sense,

and his death was surprise to his
many friends Ned, as he was called
after accidentally killing his brother
last year never got over it, and it was
thought that his mind became unbal-
anced from thinking over this sad mis-
fortune.
The body arrived from New Or
leans on Tuesday morning and was
placed in the Methodist Church. AT
4 o'clock in the evening his remains
were followed to their sepulchre by
his brother Knights of Pythias, 9
detacment of the Military Company
and a large number of our citizens
Rev. Mr.. Knickerbocker performed

He was quiet, moral young man
and had many friends in our town and

death, and who join us in extending
our heartfelt sympathy to his be
| reaved brothers and sister.
