grandmother she was both sunshine and
strength. The funeral was held in the
Congregational church, Friday afternoon,
Dec. Is. The large number present was
only one of the many evidences of the sin
cere love and admiration Of all for this
pure and lovely character. Most delicate
and graceful expressions of Hove which
could not be told in words, came in gifts
of beautiful flowers. Her life, although
short in years, was long in work, in help
fulness, and love. 1t was happy life
strong in noble purpose and lofty ideals.
1t is like joyous song whose echoes will
never die. Truly it may be said of her,
''B.essed are the pure in heart, for they
shall see God"
South Barton.
A CARD. We wish to thank the friends
who so kindly aided US in the illness, and
shared our sorrow in the hour of death and
burial, of our little Grace. May Gods
richest blessings reward them.

The lecture by Miss Chase, Saturday
evening was good, and so was the audi
ence, what there was of it. Coventry has
fully sustained its reputation a lecture
giving community. 1t seems pity when
anything really meritorious comes to us,
to give it such a cold shoulder. Let US
hope it was on account of the great rush OF;
business and pleasure during the week.
and not lack of interest.
