QLouis B. Glenn, who lived in the town
OF Wh1testown, committed suicide by
hanging himself in his wagon shed at an
early hour Friday morning. Mrs.
Glenn says her husband arose to close

the customary hour of arising he was
found to be absent and a search of the
premises revealed the sad and horrible
sight of his body suspended by the neck

accounted for by the fact that Mr..

SOME NEW ROCKS.


Among the materials which will be recoR-
nized as indispensable by the future historian
OF our civil war and Of the preceding anti
slavery movement. n place will be undoubtedly
conceded TO The LiJe and Times Of Hannibal
Hdn1ltn. complied by his grandson. CHARLES
EUoENE HAMLIS, and published by subscrip-
tion. This book. which is based on the sub
ject's private correspondence. comprising
some ten thousand letters presents an ac-
count Of the rise and fall OF the pro-slavery
party In the State of Maine as well as in tho
nation. Hannibal Hamlin began his political
life as . jackson Democrat and remained
faithful to his party for a quarter Of a century.
but after serving In both branches Of the Fed
eral Congress he left the Democracy at
the time OF the abrogation of the Missouri
Compromise. and co operated In the forma-
tion OF the Republican party. 10y which he was
chosen Vice. President in 1860. He had Pres-
don't Lncolns good wishes for n denomination
IN 1884. but was defeated by factional In
trtGus and the falsifcation OF delegation. He
died on July 4. 1891. being then nearly ~
years old. and having been in public life up
ward OF sixty years. That is the bare outline
OF life which was sufficiently filed with in
tersstlnR and important Incidents TO justify
the volume OF over 600 pages which his
grandson has devoted to him.

by them; from a confused mass Of ancient
documents they with labor and sitting drew
forth their dates and harmonized their facts.
As II to emphasize the truth that they were
only compiling the annals OF ireland from the
most ancient sources attnnable. the Masters
wrote in an old bardic dialect full OF words
and idioms unintelligible even to the men OF
their own day who had not received bardic
training. They we're, in fine. learned men
writing for the learned. whereas Keating. who
wasO 'Cleary's contemporary, wrote not for the
classes but the masses. and he has had his re-
ward in the thousands OF copies OF his popular
history which have been made and read In
Ireland, whereas the copies made OF the
Annals we're few in comparison, and after the
end Of the seventeenth century little read.
Another valuable book OF Irish annals is the
ChrOnicOn ScotOrun,. OF uncertain origin. which
was edited for the Master OF the Rolls In one
volume by the late Mr.. Hennessy from man
uscript In the handwriting OF the celebrated
Duald Mac Firbis. 1t begins with the leg
endary Fenius Farsa, who is said to have COM
posed the Gaelic tongue " out OF seventy-two
languages" and then jumps to the year 1853 A.
D.. " in which Patrick was born" The Annals
OF Ulster cover the period from A. d. 431 to
1910 The Annals OF Loch CO begin at A. d.
1014 and end In 1890. though they contain a
few later entries. The Annals OF Boyle.
contained In q thirteenth century man
uscript. begin with the creation. and
are brought down to A. u. 1858. The
fragmentary Annals OF Boyle continue the mar
ratiye to 1852. The Annals Of Innisfallan
were compiled about the year 1915. but seem
to have been begun at least two centuries be-
fore that period. Tho Annals OF Clonmacnois
were a valuable compilation carried to the year
140S. The original of this narrative Is lost.
but an English translation made In 1927 still
exists. The works which we have mentioned
form the principal books dealing with the an
mails of Ireland. Although OF completely nde-
pendent origin. they agree marvellously with
each other as to matters OF fact. and contain
the materials for a complete history OF Ireland
derived from internal sources.
