An Appeal.

Beloved Comrades:-Doubtless all
of YOU have herd ere this that Acco-
mac is leading the state in l.. L. l.
work. OF this we are very proud, but
while many have helped, and labored
earnestly to bring this to pass, the
credit for the steady advance is
largely due to Miss Mamie Mears'
constant endeavor to place Miss
Wizards picture in our public
schools and organizing wherever a
picture goes. Miss Mears has done
this work alone, so far as we know,
having received no pecuniary assis-
lance except from Onancock.
We desire to continue to press this
work, but sometimes ones desire to
do good exceeds their ability. We
therefore appeal to our Unions and
US to help Miss Mears in this grand
work of training the young to res
pect the good and great and to line
for the betterment OF self and our
country. Miss Mears' address is
Onley.

In nemorfam.

In loving remembrance OF my dear
husband, w. Il. Tull, who departed
this life September 29th, 1900. he
was kind and affectionate husband,
a gentle and loving father and ever
thoughtful for the care of his family.
He was a member of the Presby-
terrain Beaver Dam Church for over
twenty-five years and his seat was
seldom vacant while he was in health
and able to be in attendance. He
was engaged in the mercantile bust
ness for over forty years and was al =
ways known to deal justly with
everyone and was ever charitable to
the poor and needy. Our home is so
lonely without him. We miss him at
the freside, the store and all around
seems so dreary now that he has left
US. His children feel they have lost
a friend whose place none other can
fill, but while we tarry here we trust
he is enjoying the beatitudes OF
Heaven. He leaves wife and seven
children and one loving brother to
mourn their loss. May we all meet
him again where parting is no more.
His Wife.
