OBITUARY NOTES,
Death of Morris s. Hill, Formerly a Ney
 Haven Bank Teller.

Death of Morris S. Hill, Formerly New
 Haven Bank Teller.
 Morris S. Eiu, for many years past a well known resident of Danbury, and formerly for years prominent New Haven young man, died at his home on Farview avenue, Danbury, at an early hour Monday morning, aged f1fty-one years.
 The late Mr. Hill was the elder son of our much esteemed and aged towns man, Rev. Morris Hill, now about nine ty years of age, who resides at No. 95 Dwight street. A considerable part of his youth was spent in New Haven. HIis father was for several years pastor of the old St. John street M. B. church, this city. Young Morris was educated here and when about nineteen or twen- fy years of age learned the banking business with his uncle, Norwalk banker. Later he accepted employment with the First National bank of this city, when that banks office was on Chapel street where Hamilton & Co.'S store is now, and afterward when it oc- cupied the quarters now occupied by the Connecticut Savings bank, and later when 1t was located in the Governor English building on Orange street He won rapid promotion and served as teller for number of years. He was accounted one of the most expert tell CTS in New England. His brother, John Hill, was clerk at the same bank when 1t was on Orange street. Morris later accepted a lucrative position with a bank in Hudson river town. He went to Danbury in 1865, entering the en- ploy of the Danbury National bank as teller, where he remained until 1867, when he returned to this city and secur- ed a situation with the New Haven Clock company. He afterwards return ed to Danbury and was employed by the Clark Box company, where he was still engaged at the time of his death.
 MT. Hill had suffered from heart trou- ble for year past, at times being laid up by the attacks. During his last ill., ness nothing serious was feared at first until his system began to break down and it was seen that he could not sur- vive.
 Two daughters survive, Miss Grace C. Hill and Miss Sally B. Hill.

THE MOUNTAIN ROAD.
And Who win be Benefited BY
its Construction.

Cove Greek, Va, May oath. 1897.
EDITOR OF the News:
have just read in your last is
sue, an article signed by "Citizen,p -
at Tazewell. in regard TO the road
from this point to Graham. First,
I notice that he claims that it will
only benefit a small number OF
Tazewell people; and secondly, that
it will only benefit the merchants
of Graham and the people of Bland
Co. 70 some extent, but it would be
hard to build one anywhere i'm
Taze well or any other county, that
would not benefit some adjoiuing
county. And my brother certainly
looks through the glass darkly
when he says that it will benefit
only a few Tazewell people. Let
him take into consideration the
farmers of Clear Fork, from the
Bland line on UP the Valley for
miles, who are virtually cut of
from the outside world, as far as a
market is concerned. 1t is only
miles from this point, Cove Creek
across the mountain to Graham,
bnt when farmer starts to Ora
ham with u load of produce from
lar AnN lan 70 -, 81 l.. A..
miles before he can get there, and
we have at least one hundred farm
ers in the district marked out
above. Not only this. but it would
open up a direct route from Burk e's
Garden to Graham and Pocahontas,
the great coal center.
And now, we will turn our
eyes TO The other side of the noun
tain, and there we see the entire
valley of Bluestone benefited by it,
Graham. Falls Mills and Pocahon
as, all feel the need of it, and it is
virtually the Clear Fork District,
and yet he says it will only benefit
few of our county people. o no
Brother! we dad not expect you to
be in favor of the road. You can
only look at the bright side, and
shudder in despondency from the
only fact, that you will not be bene
flied by the roads construction.
But sir, you must take into consid
Grafton that Tazewell county does
not all lay right at the Court
House. The farmers of this dis
trict want the road and they de
serve it.
Respectfully,
T. LIS.

High School Buiihjng.

We understand that it is contem.
plated spending considerable sum
of money in improving the High
School buildirg, this summer. We
think this the wrong thing to do. AS
every body knows the location of the
building Is entirely unsuitable for
school purposes. Less than $4,000
spent on it in its present condition
would be money wasted, and this,
added to what the property could
be sold for would build n school
room much more desirable, provided
a good location was secured
We know whereof we speak, when
we say, that under prevailing condi.
tions, successful school work cannot
be done in the building on its pres.
ent location, The property is val.
liable for some purposes, but not for
school, and it is to be hoped that the
authorities will seriously consider
the advisability, and in fact, necessi-
ty OF moving 10 other quarters.
Later.-Since writing the above
articles we learn that a contract has
been closed to repair the present
building. We are sorry this has
been done. 1t is n waste of money.
This move is mistake On behalf
Of the school children whom we are
be und to educate, and the teachers
who teach them, and of all parties
concerned, we enter our protest.

A Unique Fishing Party.

Tazewell is "hard to head" on
fishing excursions We has as many
disciples of Isaac Walton to the
square foot as any town in the South
west. The latest exploit of this kind
occurred this week. ii. L. Britain,
j. b. Boyer and Jno. +, Barnes from
Tazewell, started out for three
days excursion to Poor Valley and
vicinity. They went by and got A.
B. Buchanan and w. A. Thompson,
from the Valley. g. w. Doak was
to go along. it is said, but his wife
objected and he had to stay at home.
The crowd returned IN rather a
delapidated state, after. one days out
ing. The bait, they said gave out
the first day. Peery Britain came
back with a big gnat, or grain of
sand in his eye, he isn't certOIu,
which. Bud Boyer caught one fish
he thinks, but isn't certain. inc.
Barnes went around through Burke's
Garden, and up to this writing has
not returned. A searching party is
talked of. The boys say they are
glad Doak didn't go, as the bait was
short any how. Any information re
garding Mr. Barnes will be gladly
received by his friends here. Later
Mr. Barnes has returned and says
he has been on "legal business" bu
from his general appearance we have
our doubts.
