Hargrove, who had a box of cheap to-

ir a third partner, which was my wife,
who sent down bolts of the shifting,

an ounce and the shifting at 81 a yard.
II was a kind of department store. Bob

We didn't take Confederate money for

town that had a stock of goods Al the
others were empty. In April, 1865, a
company of blue coats came down in the
night and the next morning we were all
surprised to see them. Mr. Lincoln was
killed two days before. So it was ru-

was great big red-headed man and said
what he pleased, so he rode up to the
company and said "Cappen, is there
any truth in the report that ole Abe LIN
Lincoln is dead?" The captain replied

"WelI, / thought if he was dead it was
likely that they would bury him.' said
King and he put spurs to his horse and
galloped down the street to tell us the
news The captain said afterwards he
came very near ordering the men to
shoot him.

work and Mr.. Sellers says he learn
ed more about India in half an hour
than he had before in his whole
life.
The sessions were held in the
State Capitol. The Y. NJ. c. A.
Building in Trenton is a 100000
structure. The association there
has 1900 members aud is yerv
prosperous. Mr.. Sellers was much
impressed with the building aud
the evidences OF enterprise which
he observed. In view OF the fact
that Trenton, which 10 about as
large as Wilmington, leads this city
in building and surroundings for
association work. Mr.. Sellers feels
that Wilmington should take steps

wine In 1851.
The Hon. Plummer E. Jefferis of

At that time Eugene was lad of
about ten years, living on Honey
Comb Farm, near Wilmington.
He is now in Montana. He wrote
to Dr. Jefferis in Chester.
The letter from Delaware reads
thus:
Dear Cousin:-We are all well
and hope you are enjoying the
same. Sleighing is almost done,
but it is still kept up. l have not
seen Il sleigh this two weeks. The
ice is very thick. 1t averages from
twenty to twenty five inches thick.
1t bore on the fording two or three
weeks ago.
There has been several bears
seen about this neighborhood. They
came over from Jersey on the ice.
One of them was killed the other
day by woman. There is also
panther down here along Shellpot
Creek. Foxes are so numerous in
tho marsh that the fox hunters
have fine fun. If you want to see
foxes, all you have to do is to come
down soon. There was seen com
ing from Jersey shore fifteen or
twenty foxes.
l still continue to go to school.
We have fine fun with the master
every day. Weare going to whip the
master the last day of school Come
down the 18th and see us. We are
going to have high times.
The small pox is not very bad in
Wilmington, but chiefly confined
to the Poor House. Your cousin,

DR.. Thomas D. Cook who re.

for the trolley cars. The ordinance
will be considered tonight.
A long discussion took place be-
tween Council and members of the
Park Commission over the pur-
chase of the Elliott property for
Park purposes. The matter went
over for a week as members of
Council thought the price asked for
the ground was very high.
The subject of extra clerks for the
tax collectors caused lively debate
and it was finally decided to pass
an ordinance granting each collector
an additional clerk.
Council did not take any action
last night on the new city charter.
Members of the Board of Trade
were present but by the time other
matters were considered it was too
late to discuss the charter.
