GRAFTON.


The death Of Mrs. Elizabeth S. Hall,
which occurred on the evening of Sept
2G, calls for more than passing notice of a
remarkable woman. Mrs. Hall was for
nearly 30 years postmaster at Grafton, al
though for some time the active duties of
the office have been given to her daughter.
The keen interest in public affairs which
characterized earlier years, however, she
never lost, but was in her S0th year, so far
as her health would permit, the same
ready thinker and worker as ever. Living
In this quiet town, and for long periods
kept at home by her own Illness or that of
her family, Mrs. Halls interests and sym
pathies were yet worldwide. With rare
intellectual gifts her mind had been cul-
tivated by years of appreciative reading
and rich thought, Endowed, too, with
an unusually accurate and ready memory,
and with rare facility Of expression, it
was not strange that those who met her
only casually spoke afterward of her won
derfully interesting personality. But
when one knew her as a friend, he real
lied that Mrs. Halls spirit was as broad
and as richly gifted as her mind. One
found her sympathy always so ready and
so sure, her generosity so kind and so prac-
tical in expression, her interest in all that
l
her faith so confident, her courage so
strong, that a visit to her always meant
new inspiration for the duties of life and
new appreciation of its opportunities.
Whoever came TO her, whether the
needy, the sorrowng, or the discouraged,
went away helped and comforted, and into
the happiness Of youth and the JOY Of the
| prosperous she never failed to enter with
the same welcome sympathy. Deserving
all praise, she needs none" Such life
came to beautiful ending, when she
babe her friends good night with words
of pleasant anticipation for tomorrow,
and then within an hour passed while
asleep to 1.-THE rest that remaneth for the
/ people of Cod"
| WALTER H. CAMBRIDGE,
/ scarborough, Mass, oct. 3, 1898.
Mrs Hall had been very feeble for a
! long time, but was nevertheless in her
usual health until the Friday before her
| death, when she was injured by a fall,
causing a shock to her system from which
/ she could not rally.

But Grafton had graver work ahead, and it was close at hand Punctilious soldier that he was. he would leave no Ioopho-e for the possible criticism of a
 superior. Hurriedly writing few lines to Col. Buxton notifying him that the
 wagon bringing Merriam was now close
 to the garrison, and that, as arranged between them, he would meet it al the gate, he sent the note by his servant and hasfened up the row to the angle formed by the south and west fronts where an opening had been left in the fence for the convenience of riding parties; and it was through this gaI that poor Randy was presently trundleG and then down along the line to his own doorway. By this time the pain in his strained and stiffened leg was intense while the arm, hurriedly but skillfully dressed when far afield, was troubling him but little.

they?" said he. "The news has just come-trains running tomorrow"
 Out on the sunht mesa a mile away a dusty little cortege came slowly, weari- ly trooping homeward, bearing a wounded officer to the longed-for shell ter of his home; and Grafton. with still another of those fateful brown en- relopes in his hand, bent over and in terrupted the lovely widow in the midst of her animated chat with the ladies from next door.
 Pardon me one minute, Mrs. Me Lane," he said. Some rather urgent dispatches came while you were sleep ing, and this has just reached me. If you can spare moment to glance over them I will have the answers sent. Suppose we step inside.''
 It was wonderful with what sudden ness gladness and gayety would vanish from her eyes, leaving there only a hunted, haggard look; so, too, in the lines about the sensitive mouth; yet the soft, creamy tint of the fair skin re- mained unchanged, as did the gentle color. Mutely she arose and followed him, and, the parlor being in the shade and too near the party on the porch, he led on to the bright dining-room whose windows commanded a view of the sun shiny mesa. There he turned.
 ''Mr. Parry wires me that he had eX- pected you in Denver three days ago, and that your affairs demand that you should go thither the moment the road is open-which will be tomorrow. He says he has vainiy tried to get an an- swer to his letters to you, and that no reply came to his dispatches. Can be of any service. Mrs. McLane? This seems most urgent, and. pardon me, believe 1t ny duty to point out 10 you that your friends are rendered power less by your own neglect to act.''
 @'I did try" she faItered. "I had to see 1lr. Merriam" She made a piteous p:ct'ure. looking up there into his stern, solGisriy face.
 -'B0t, pardon me again, I cannot see, Knowing nothing of the nature of this --litjra ion. what Mir. Merriam lhas to slo with it. Is his testimony necessary? ? zs th7t why MT. Parry has been urging ii -.-i tslS NOli.C tO NiIiii OH

 ''Hr couldn't go, Mrs. McLane. He was sent in pursuit of Mexican ruffans last F gl:t, and was shot and severely wounded in the fight tAis morning Look, They're bringing him in now"
 And for the second time within the week Fanny McLane went senseless in a second. limp and nerve,ess heap upon the floor. They had to carry her to her room. and Grafton was the bur den bearer; and then, having laid her upon Ter bed, and while the women were busting about with the usual restoratives, he stopped one moment be- fore Ter profusely filtered toilet table, A little case, half hidden among the mess, unerringly caught his eye. He took it, touched the spring. gave one quick glance at the dainty, delicate in- struments and phials inside, and re- placed it, with the quiet remark: q thought so."
