To the Editor of the Dispatch:

To the Editor Of the Dispatch:
MIR. A. Eargle ard Mr.. Foster, Of
Nawberry, were over last week. The
former was visiting relatives and the
latter came to SOW and cultivate
orange blossoms.
Miss Dolly Snelgrove and Miss
Miles of Brookland. are here now Wis
iling relatives.
Protracted meetings are all the 80
now. Last week the meetings were
held at Union and this week they are
being held at Mt. Hebron. The
pastor. Rev. Mr.. Riser, is being as
sisted by Revs. Lindler and Austin.
Rev. J D. Shesly and family, form,
elly of this place but now Of Gran
i'eville, are also here renewing old
friendships and forming new ones.
Mr.. Sheck Shealy is here and a great
many others whose names | failed to
learn.
1t looks like this place will be o
summer resort yet. MIR. W. H.
Hare is going to build an addition to
his already large house. Why not
build hotel at once, friend?
DR.. Drafts, of Lorena, was in town
on professional business few days
ago. I see Dc. Crosson near here
often. There is not much sickness
around here now.
One of MIR. E. W. Shealy's chill
dren died last week and was inferred
at Mt. Hebron, this being the first
grave at the new church and the
second member that has died.
A couple of weeks ago Mr.. H. E
Esrgle bought his wife double
barreled washing machine, and then
a few nights ago he was roostiDg on
the top of his crib, which is twenty
feet from the ground, grinning for
dear life. He says it is boy again.
Now, Mr.. Editor, hoping that not
one of your many readers will take
this for Tillman bluff or for SER
mon by some Northern divine, [ will
close. Bill.

OBITUARY.

Mary Emily Hazen was born in
Hartford, VT, May g, 1910, and died in
Fairmont, Neb., Oct. 18, 1901, at the
age of 81 years, months and II days.
She was married Jan. 10, 1885, at
Norwich, VT, to Thomas B. Pike; to
them were born five children, of whom
Mrs F. Curtiss is the only one re-
naming. They removed to Wisconsin
in 1916 in the early days of that State,
being among the first settlers. There
her husband died in 1868 on their 37th
wedding anniversary.
She was married again to Rev. S. p.
Stebbins, one of the earliest pioneer
preachers of Methodism, in 1872. He
died in 1882. For three years before
his death being a confirmed invalid,
he was cared for by his wife with un-
firing devotion.
In 1885 she came to Nebraska to
make her home with her daughter,
where she has lived ever since until
she was called to meet her loved ones
on the other side.
She was converted at the age of %
at camp meeting in Vermont. She
Joined the Methodist church at that
time, sang for many years in the choir
and took an active interest IN all the
workings of the church.
On coming to Fairmont, she trans
ferred hersmemb ership to that church
and was an attendant as long as her
age and her healthCpermitted.
Anyone seeings' Grandma Stebbins
in these latter days would fail to ap-
preciate the real worth she has been to
the world; in her earlier days being an
exceedingly active worker in home,
church and community.
The funeral was from the house,
conducted by Rev. G. M. Gates.
All! Yes.
beyond this shadowy damp.
Where all is bright and fair
We know full well these dear old hands
Will palms of victory bear.
Where chrystal streams thro' endless years
Flow over golden sands,
And where the old grow young again
Well clasp this mothers hands.
Safe 3yond life's troubled stream,
Her tired hearts strife is DER,
This angel mother glorified,
Will grow old, nevermore.
MRS. F. CURTIss.
