Holland Settlements.

Twelve or fifteen years ago a party,
or company, it was stated, had bought
a large part of Bombay Hook island, to
be settled by HOllanders. The move
ment proved to be a mere speculative
one, and for want of capital, never ma
terialized. There has been a good
deal said on the Eastern Shore the past
year or so, about a colony of Dutch
settlers in Dorchester county. There
seems to be others who want to get
away from the extreme cold of the far
western states, and if they come far
enough they will find Bombay Hook
island in the same place, with the ad-
ditiOn that it has a charter for trolley
line and only wants the settlement to
give it the proper impetus. The fol-
lowing item from the Centreville Rec
ord explains a phase of the eastern
movement:
More settlers cOming.-A party OF
landseekers from Northwestern Illi-
nOis, 100 miles west of Chicago, have
been in Talbot county this week look
ing for location for Holland settle
ment. Some brought their wives with
them. They are HOllanders who have
been living in Illinois for several years
and are now looking for a milder eli.
mate and better markets. They are
particularly pleased with the variety OF
fruits they found here, especially the
peaches and pears, neither of which
can be grown in their section. They
want to secure a large tract of land,
some $500 acres, in one body upor
which to locate a colony. Colonel
Oswald Tilghman, who had them il
charge, thinks he can find body OF
land in Chapel district, Talbot county,
that will suit them better than the
lands around Willemina settlement, il
Caroline county.

Death of Henry Curry.

Henry Curry, after brief illness,
died at his home on Union street,
Friday, in the 67th year of his age.
He had been in impaired health for
ten or twelve years, thought for a long
time to be dyspepsia, but it proved to
be cancer of the intestines. Though
reduced in physical strength he was
not disabled from business, though
subject at times to very severe attacks,
accompanied with great pain. 1t was
in one of these attacks that he sue
cumbed on Friday.
The deceased learned the trade of
carriage painting with McMullen &
Shermer, and followed it the rest of
his life. He was a man of remarkably
quiet demeanOr, a circumstance that
perhaps his state of health had much
to do with. His home was to him
what it is not to most men-his abid-
ing place when not at business. This
was the case for years, and if called
| OuO VI ONOAAh5o WACAO AlCn COnSI6-
gate, it was not to tarry. He loved
his home, and made himself agreeable
in it. He was one of those reclaimed
in what is known as the ''Stubbs re-
vival' of '76, and connected himself
with the church, but for some time,
for reasons above stated, was not often
in attendance.
The funeral services were held on
Sunday afternoon, attended by num-
Der of citizens, conducted by Revs.
Stengle and Haynes. The interment
was in Glenwood Cemetery. Besides
his widow he leaves four children, Ed
ward, Henry, Robert, and daughter
Bessie.

Death Of Mrs. Sarah p. Mason.


Mrs. Sarah P. Mason, who for sew
enty years was prominent lady in
Smyrna society, until few years ago,
died at the Home of the Incurables in
Philadelphia, on Monday, where she
had been tenderly cared for, and was
brought down to Smyrna this morn
ing and laid to rest, after services in
the M. E. Church.
The present generation knew little
of her because previous to her depart
ure for Philadelphia, four years ago,
advancing years and infrmity had rob-
bed her of that elasticity and vigOr
that was her natural endowment, but
the older residents remember we'll her
capabilities, that environments may
have at times run into eccentricities.
Her father, Robert Patterson,
leading merchant, gave the deceased
and her two sisters, Mary and Ann,
all the social and scholastic opportu-
mites the time afforded, and the de-
ceased, for so long known as "NIiss
Sallie Patterson, mot marrying Gen.
George Findlay Mason until nearing
middle life) was widely known as
lady of aesthetic temperament, fond of
painting, poetry, &c, and was a writer
of prose and verse of no mean order.
Many of these productions were pub
lished in the TIMES, including remin-
iscences of persons and things con-
nected with our local history, which
she thought should be published, and
thus live after the actors had passed to
their reward.
There was scarcely anything of a
literary, social or religious nature,
that she was not associated with. As
young woman she had as personal
friends Mrs. Kennedy, a brilliant
woman of two continents, Mrs. Schultz
enbach, who figured prominently in
Boston society, the Misses Budd, of
Philadelphia, and other ladies of cult
ure and refinement, of which the
Smyrna of that day was so noted.
She was one of the organizers of the
first Sunday School in Smyrna, then
undenOminatiOnal; the Benevolent So
ciety, that has carried comfort into so
many homes; Temperance AssOcia-
tiOns of beneficiary order, or to re-
claim or restrain the young; and in
her younger days church work OF
every order, being from her early life
member of the Methodist church.
Her period of activity was cast in the
''herOic days" of church and society
when individuality was more marked
than it is to-day, and if peoples lives
were commemOrated only for what
they did, no one would have a higher
monument than Mrs. Mason. Such a
life should have had the sunshine fol
which she was so well fitted, and 70
which in social position and compe.
tency she had been reared, but tn,
shadows fell thick and fast across the
latter part of her life, the reasons fol
which we need not stop to dwell upon
The allotted time, three score and ten
was considerably passed by, having
reached her 91st year the 10th day Of
last May.
To those who visited her she haC
nothing but praise to bestOw for tn,
comforts that had surrounded the las
years of her life. Her dying wisl
that her remains be brought down t,
Smyrna, and inferred with her sisters
in Glenwood Cemetery, was fully car
ried out by those kind friends VIII,
had been seeing after her comforts
Thus ends life, long and eventful.
Smyrna times., 1897-09-01

The Republican at Ocean City did q
big thing on Thursday in putting an
end to the dominancy of Boss Yelling
ton. The grip of q boss is powerful
among Office expectants, and thus hard
to control, but they had gotten rid of
German and were not willing to take a
more domineering substitute in We'll
lingtOn. His defeat thus was like lift
ing a pail from the State.
Boss Quay, in Pennsylvania, seems
however, harder to down, or rather to
keep down. The last Legislation was
considered his Legislature, which aside
from being seated as elected, was very
much of the same quality as the Della
ware Legislature in reckless legislation.
Gov. Hastings stood between the peo-
pie and the bad legislation of these
Representatives, and a resolution de-
nOuncing the Legislature and praising
Governor Ha-t.u1 was shelved.
The platfOr--, -.ao er, ,reafirms the ST
Louis platform, rejoices in the passage
of the Dingley law, declares that dollar
wheat has sounded the death knelI OF
free coinage, pledges the party to
maintain inst system of civil service,
and urges Congress to pass law re.
stricting immigration.
Smyrna times., 1897-09-01

THE Philadelphia Times in discuss
ing the return of prosperity says this
is beyond doubt the farmers year.
With a wheat crop worth not less than
$3.50, ,000, 900, a corn crop worth $720, =
0OO, 900, cotton that will sell for 1920, :
O00s 200, rye and barley adding $40, 900, =
600 more to these figures, making q
grand total of two billions, with hay,
eggs, fruits, vegetables and dairy and
meat products yet to be heard from,
there will be small chance for raising
a calamity cry this year in the agricul-
tural sections. These figures, show
ing only in part the enormous
value of the agricultural products of
the country, indicate that the real
Klondike of the United States is to be
sought and found in tilIing its fertile
acres.
Every one can afford to rejoice with
the farmers, for their good fortune
everybody will share. Prosperous
agriculture is the basis upon which all
national prosperity in this or any other
country must rest, and the prosperity
of our farmers this year will be diffused
everywhere and among all classes.
Their good fortune is the good fortune
of everybody else, so closely inter
twined are the relationships Of all other
classes with the farmers, and this is a
good time for everybody else to be
glad because the farmers are glad.
Smyrna times., 1897-09-01

Col, E. T. COOPER, so long known
as an Office holder in Dover, moved
bag and baggage last week to Milford,
and on Saturday his new bantling,
The Herald, was issued to the public.
1t is in form up to dates pages-has
the usual local variety and general
evidence of newness; though of course,
for that was the object of its publica-
ton, it is intensely democratic, though
the editor says he has no enemies to
