Memorial Services.

The Memorial services of Mrs.
Mary Matilda May, were conduct.
ed in the Methodist church last
Sunday morning by Rev. J.S
French. The text OF Mr.. Freuch's
sermon was from LIST Cor. 13. 13:
"And now abideth Faith, Hope and
Charity, these three, but the great
est of these is Charity" SIR. French
said In part: All these essentials of
christran life were possessed in a
high degree by that one whose
memory is fresh in our hearts to-
dav ond to whom this window is
dedicated.
Her faith was as simple and
tIustful as that of u little child; her
hopes as unfaltering and steady as
the beacon light, watched over by
friendly forms, which guides the
storm tossed mariners into the
peaceful haven; her love for God
and family and humanity In gener-
al as warm, unselfish aud sincere
as ever that which caused man
to lay down his life for his friends,
and the pain which wrung our
hearts abides today, though some-
what tempered by times healing g
touch,
"HeTs was magnificent life.
1t is true she was not widely known
was no celebrity, the talked OF a
of state or nation, the object of the
newspaper reporters, but one does
not have to be this in order to live
magnificent life and be great az
God counts greatness. count that
one truly great who being put down
In an ordinary place and given an
ordinary work TO do, does this work
in an extraordinary way, and the
development of IA christian character
is of far more Importance TO Al
mighty God than the accumulation
Of this worlu's goods or the appl-
ause of men. This latter, like
pr 'phlcies, and tongues, and know
ledgepass away; the fame abb
deth forever aud when this mem.
orial shall have crumbled into dust
the influence of her life will b,
fresh and green. And i
this be our measurement
then truly was the life of Mrs. Mary
Matilda May a magnificent one
worthy of all the admiration and
loveAnd esteem we pay and wei
deserving the beautiful monument
which Miss Maggie, her grand
daughter, will now unvail.

a YOUNG VETERAN.
State Senator Fairfax Was in the Battle OF
Chantilly.

Hon Henry Fairfax. member OF the
ctata Senate from Loudoun county. IS q
veteran OF the war between the STATES
DESPITE the fact that he was BOY only
eleven wears of age when Virginia Sc
coded from the Union. Mr.. Fairfax hhes 10
recount his war experiences: His active
service was rot long.
AR Fairfa%'s father was an oflcer on
fine staff of General james Lonsstrees.
Inst prior to the battle of Cnantllly, IL
1863. Colonel Fairfax was home for !. day
or two, and when he started to re]oin the
army, Which he expected to reach near
Chantilly, he took young Henry Win
him. The hoy was mounted on his pony
and of course felt himself every inch
nan and about as much soldier Had his
father expected battle, of course. ne
would not have taken the young fellow
with him, but nothing Of the kind was
anticipated.
before the reached the little town of
Chantilly. however. there was heard
heavy firing IN the vicinity, and Colonel
Fairfax, whose duty was at General
Longstreet's side, hurried towards the
fight, taking Henry with him. OF course
the hoy was eager for the sxdtazAuk Of

a real battle. He lad not heard much
else for two years, with his father in thb
army, and all the men of the neighbor-
hood with him.
When they reached Chantilly the battle
was in progress sure enough. Colonel
Fairfax and Henry went at once to where
General LongStreet was sitting on his
horse with his staff in a somewhat pro-
tect position. Colonel Fairfax reported for
duty and was at once ordered to q dis
tant portion OF the field. He left Henry
sitting on his pony by General Long
streets side.
Being very young and, of course, en-
tirely unused to such scenes, Mr.. Fair
fax cannot accurately describe the battle
as he witnessed it with the general COM
handing, but he has a most vivid recol-
lection of it all-the screaming shells. the
roar of artillery, the rattle of musketry,
the Rebel yell, the charging lines, and
the dead and wounded. Naturally he
loves to recount his experience as he did
to Times writer at the Jefferson a few
nights ago.
When the battle was ended and tie
Federal army was in full retreat, Nlr.
Fairfax saw his father again. bu- soon
had to bid him goodbye and start home

days even the boys longed to take arms
