A TALE OF A eRAvesToNe.

An Oxford County marble worker
spent bad couple of hours the Other
day. He had been TO q cemetery q,
quite distance TO set stone, and wher
the work was done his customer handed
him the psy-two ten dollar bills and &
five. They were standing at the time
within dozen feet OF the highway. In
order TO get the bills out Of his hand
temporarily while he receipted for them
he laid them on the ground and pulled d
little stone on 70 the end of them. Then
they went of TO look at stone Ia an
other part Of the cemetery, and then
Mr.. Grsvestone Man unhifched his horse
and drove home, arriving about T. NJ.
About 3 O'Clock he had occasion to
open his pocket book, and that money
wasn't there. He thought a minute,
and remembered where he had left it,
and resolved 10 start right back. His
wife said:
lit won't be bit OF use. IL WAS right
beside the road where you left IL, In
plain sight, and the moneys probably
gone long before this time. It's eighteen
miles over there, and you'll waste your
time and strength"
But he thought twenty-five dollars
was worth taking some chances on, and
he hitched up his best horse and started.
He thought he was driving about ak
miles an hour, but he covered the eight
een miles, part OF the way over very
billy road, 10 just an hour and half.
Almost as soon as he got Ia sight Of
the cemetery, his eye caught the flutter
OF paper, and there Law the bills, just
where he left them. lie thinks Il paid
him pretty good mileage for his thirty
six miles extra travel, but he won't
swap that horse with any Of his neigh
bors for hundred and fifty to boot.

A YOUNG LIFE ENDED,

(HavcrhiIl, Mass Evening Gazette. Aug. 2. }
There passed away from this world,
last Saturday morning, beautiful
young life. Helen Pauline kffield
Hooper Was born In this citv, and VAS
the youngest daughter OF MIR. Edward
Beecher and Mrs. Ella Wheeler kitfeld.
Three years ago last June she WAS
married to Mr.. Carroll Irving Hooper Of
Boston and has resided In that city since
her marriage. II was there that she
died after an illness of ten days, which
commenced with the birth OF sou.
When Mrs. Hooper was but two years
ola. her father, In the midst Of youth
and life Of great promise, was sudden
" stricken by small pox, from which he
did not recover. He Was but 20 years
old. His daughter, Mrs. Hooper, had
attsined the same age at the time OF her
death. At the time Of her fathers death
she was received into the home OF her
grandmother, Mrs. Henry kilfield, At
Manchester by -the-Sea. 1t was there
that she grew to young womanhood,
under the best Influences and home
training.
Later sic made her home for some
years before her marriage with her
brother In this city, and endeared her
self to large circle Of friends and &C
auaintances by her frank and sunny dis
position and many lovsble traits OF
character.
Her brief married life has been filled
With happiness, aud she was looking
forward with fond anticipations to the
future, but expressed herself as wholly
reconciled TO whatever her Heavenly
Father might appoint for her, whether
it be life or death.
Her husband thus suddenly left alone,
her mother and sister, Miss Bertha Kit
field OF this city, are called upon to
mourn one very near and dear to them.
Her aged grandmother, now 81 years
old, is completely prostrated by the loss
of one who was more than daughter TO
her. She also leaves two uncles,
Messrs. Harry and George ki,field, we'll
known business men OF Boston, whose
home il 10 Manchester-by-the-S
The late Mr.. Allison Wheeler Of this
city was the maternal grandfather OF
Mrs. Hooper.
The funeral services will be held in
Centre church tomorrow afternoon at
O'Clock, and will be conducted by Rev
George l.. Gleason, formerly Of Man
chester, Of whose church Mrs. Hooper
became q member when very young
and who united Mr.. and Mrs. Hooper In
marriage.

A reunion Of the Penley family VA
held Thursday, Sept. I'd, q the beauti.
l full residence Of c. Freeland Penley, "a
High Street, IN this village. Although
Il was the 6rst time Of calling the rela-
tives together, about forty responded %
their invitation to be present, and the
pleasure Of such reunion far exceeded
the expectations Of those who were fore
most In the undertaking.
We are fortunate and we congratulate
ourselves on the fact that one Of our
family could ford rs at his own home
place so finely adapted for such an oc-
casion. As We were citing at the we'll
loaded tables under those grand old
pines 10 front Of the house, one Of the
guests remarked that we could not have
found another place In this town as nice
for our gathering. | could but add.
could we fiud another place It's equal In
the count,s These beautiful trees az
fording ju.t the required shade at the
MONDAY hour, the smooth green be-
meath and the Gear blue above al COM
bine to afford Us n dining place more
heslthful and picturesque than the most
artisticslly frescoed walls and richly fur
nished dining halls of which many Of
our famous summer resorts boast.
After psrtaking Of and enjoying u
most bountiful meal, We spent the after
noon In social way. While some were
busy at the croquet grounds, others re-
paired 10 the grove beside the river at
the rear OF the house, which Mr.. Penley
has fitted up especially for picnic parties,
and Where children find constant delight
10 swinging and fishing.
As the hour Of parting came we were
all agreed in the thought that the day
had been both pleasant and profitable
TO US all, and resolved that this should
be the first Of q series OF annual reunions
Of the Penley family.
IL WIS decided that next year the
meeting will he held It the residence OF
Charles II. Penley, two and one-half
miles shove this village, on what Is now
called EN- Grove Farm, which was the
old Penley homestead. We shall hope
at that time TO have more general re-
union, calling tog ther all the family
connection residing 10 and out Of the
state.
