The sorrow occasioned by the announce

ceived by mail cover of pastebOard box
ON which was pasted the firms business
label. 1t was sent by w. B. Toucey, of West
View, n. j.. who wrote that he found it at
the wreck, in the car in which the passengers
were killed, aud that the box to which it be-
longed contained lunch. The cover was

purpose,
