and the bride one of our most popular

Presidents funeral day was expressed by
the closing of all stores, with mourning en-
blems displayed upon them, and on some
private residences; while all flags were at
half-mast. This public sorrow was soon
followed by grief for the loss of one of our
most prominent citizens, Capt. Charles S.
Rendell, who passed away Friday morning
last. after protracted illness. Capt Rem
dell was man who by his intellectual
calibre, clear judgment, sterling integrity
and noble manhood, commanded the respect
of all who knew him, and his loss to the
community cannot be overestimated. His
active life was spent upon the ocean,
having been the world over in command
Of various ships. He married in 1859
Miss Almeda Hichborn, who accompanied
him on all his voyages and from whom he
was scarcely parted until the great separa-
ton. She is left almost inconsolable, to
mourn the loss of a most devoted husband,
and the hearts of the community go out in
sympathy to her and his only remaining
sister, Miss Abbie Rendell, in their heavy
bereavement. The funeral services were
held Sunday afternoon at his late residence,
Rev. A. A. Smith of Belfast speaking words
of deepest comfort to the mourning friends,
and the beautiful floral tributes showing
the deep regard cherished for the departed.
