illness and death 4 member of his
family thus spoke of DR.. Martins SER
vices: DIR. Martin has indeed earned
n vacation, for his constant attendance
upon Mr.. Bradbury through many
months has been severe strain upon
him. The faithfulness with which he
has cared for Mr.. Bradbury has been
as marked as his skill, and both have
earned the deepest gratitude of us all
He succeeded his father as Mr.. Brad
bury's physician, and Mr.. Bradbury
placed in him an implicit faith which
was always justified. He looked for
ward to the doctors visits, kept him
by his bedside as long as possible and
obeyed every instruction to the letter
The doctors presence and conversation
We're always a stimulus to Mr.. Brad
bury and better than any medicine. We
feel that he regarded the doctor as a
son, and surely he received the full de-
votion of son in return. We can
never half express our gratitude for
what DR.. Martin has done for Mr..
Bradbury and for us"

AUGUSTA LOCALS.
Only Heard OF.

We have heard of a woman who hated to
shop,
Who rather at home with her children
would stop,
As II made her life completer;
Who dressed in her best for her has
bands delight,
Not only her callers TO charm with the
sight
Bnt we have yet to meet her
We have heard of the woman whenever
she threw
A stone she would hit, for her aim was
so true.
And at ball was a good all-rounder:
Who could sharpen her pencils to beau
tiful points,
Gould carve up a turkey, dividing the
joints
But we have never found her.
Again there's a woman of whom We
have heard,
Who never was anxious 10 have the last
word
In dispute or conversations:
Who never found fault though her hus-
band was wrong,
Bat made of his life 4 grand, beautiful
song
She was born in imagination.

tended that this money should be used
in the erection of a hall connected
with the Longfellow mansion. for the
use of the society. but as there seemed
to be no prospect of having that prop
erty after so long a delay, the wishes
of the teStator were that the money

of the Society library. Mr.. Bradbury
wished that a good set of the works of
his college classmates be among those
selected.
