Obituary

Daniel NJ. Rix, son OF DIR. and Mrs.
Lyman l.. Rix, was born in Royalton,
April 10, 1874, and died az his home in
Bethel September 6 of strangulated hernia
after brief but severe illness OF only five
days.
At the age OF seven, he removed, with
his parents, to Rochester and settled on
the farm now owned by Dennis Jones.
Here he spent his boyhood days; and the
memory OF the old home and associates at
school has ever been to him a green spot
in his life as he has looked back upon
them.
In 1867, he purchased a farm in Bethel,
near the Rochester line, where he lived
until his death. While his civil duties
called him to Bethel, yet his associations
were with the people of Rochester, whom
he loved and who in return esteemed him
as an honorable citizen.
On November l7,1S71, he married Almina
{. ellison OF Granville, in whom he found
loving and affectionate wife. His home
life was a happy one, for he loved his
home and family and enjoyed showing his
friends about the farm in which be took
much pride.
He was the father OF nine children:
Lyman ID. of East Bethel, Mrs. Esie
Chamberlin Of Bethel, Mrs. William
Clifford of Tunbridge, Ms. Carroll Harvey
OF Rochester, Anna A. OF Bethel, Edwin,
Mark and William, VINO remain at home,
and Martha, who died in infancy. One
grandchild, Hazen Clifford, two sisters,
Mrs. Martha Sinclair OF Waltham, Mass,
and Mrs. Abbie Joiner OF Belding, Mich,
survive him. His family were all present
at his death. The funeral was held st his
late residence on Saturday, Sept. S, Rev.
z. w. Sharp officiating. A large number
OF friends from both Bethel and Rochester
were present, many OF them following the
remains to their last resting place. The
casket was covered with flowers, and on
the stands and floor were many cut flowers
and some handsome pieces.
The bereaved widow and family have
the sympathy of a large circle Of friends.

That Rail Game.

The people who read the report OF the
South Royalton, Rochester game OF Sept
lst in the last issue of the HERALD must
certainly have had good laug h especially
those who witnessed the game. As an
effort of soreness il certainly was a success.
We are sorry to be the only team to win
out series from South Royelton, when
they have the pick OF Bethel and neigh
boring towns, and we should Judge, pay
so much for players that they can only
offer an opposing team $40 to go 25 miles
TO play of a tie. We are also sorry that
our audience acts so badly, but there is
redeeming feature, that they come and
pay their admission, and enable us to pay
an opposing team for their courtesy in
coming to the back woods TO give us a
game. AZ 20 the mistakes alluded to in
the tabulated score, we admit that the
batting order was wrong, but the HERALD
takes the liberty OF changing the order for
their convenience in typesetting, (which
is their Just privilege. II the hits and
errors are many, why does not our friend
from Royslton give the correct version
South Royalton also states that the
umpire called the game because the crowd
interfered with the players. We herein
give the statement OF the umpire, sworn
and signed before Justice
/, j. L. Campbell, umpire OF the South
RoyaltoD- Rochester game Sept. 1st, de-
clare. that / called the game for the reason
that the captain of the South Royalton
team refused TO play and took his men
from the field, thus giving the game
to Rochester g TO o. the score then being
7to7. distinctly saw Reed OF South
Royslton hold Pierce in the base line by
throwing both arms around his body.
In spite Of this holding Pierce reached
third base in safety and as the rules pro-
vide that q base runner shall be given
base as penalty for such holding / felt
perfectly justified in giving him his score.

Galveston Recovering From Her

Powers Over China. ---Great Coal
Strike Begun.--Kruger Leaves His
Country. .--0ther Notes.

Galveston is recovering by degrees
nom her terrible calamity. The grue-
some work of disposing of the bodies
Of the dead is well along. 1t is known
that the total loss of life is about 6,000,
out Of $4,000 in the city. The bodies
were first taken out to sea and sunk.
but they washed back to the shore until
this could no longer be done. Hun
dreds were burned in pyres of debris.
NO attempt has been made TO keep any
record fthe dead and but few have
been identified. II is necessary TO ex-
pediate this work to prevent a pesti-
lence. Tons upon tons OF disinfect-
ants have been used At first the dead
were robbed. but this was summarily
stopped, about 7jwho were caught in the
act being shot in their tracks. Troops
were soon placed on guard. The prop
erty loss is in the vicinity Of S25 ,000, 600.
Thousands OF men have been at
work clearing away the ruins and good
progress has been made The city will
be rebuilt at once, though some pro-
lection against a similar disaster will
be made. All over the country the
call for help has been heard and sever
al million dollars worth of supplies
have been forwarded to the suffering
survivors.
