Captain Thomas johnson, aged 90
years, who has been quite sick for
two weeks is now out again. He has
over 1000 barrels of sweet potatoes
in his mammoth potato-house and
was out Monday attending to the
packing and shipping them.
Much excitement was created in
Onancock and vicinity on Tuesday,
when it was announced, that the
grave of Mrs. Charles l. Stengle had
been robbed. The grave is in the
Onancock Cemetery, about one mile
outside of town. The time of the
robbery is unknown, some think it
to have been done about Christmas,
others that it was done during the
past week. The sunken condition OF
the grave, the number of bricks
thrown around about, and the alb
sence of the foot-stone were noticed
by some visitors to the cemetery on
Sunday and the relatives of Mrs.
Stengle were notified. Upon inves-
tigation it was found the grave had
been broken into, first the dirt re-
moved and then the foot-stone taken
and the case and casket broken
open near the head of the grave.
When the dirt was removed the head
and face were exposed. No other
motive for the deed can be advanced
than that when Mrs. Stengle was
buried her engagement ring, q valu-
able diamond, was put on her finger
When the body was exhumed on
Tuesday the diamond ring was miss
ing and, it is also stated, that the
body was in the same state as when
buried. Mrs. Stengle was the first
wife of the Rev. Charles l. Stengle
and was Miss Wilhelmina Roberts
before her marriage.

INSTRUMENTATION Sunday School
Convention.

Editor of Enterprise;-I heartily
endorse the splendid letter of Bro.
w. L. Mock, in the last issue OF the
Enterprise, in reference to the Inter
denominations Sunday School Con-
vention.
Being one of the committee Of
three, appointed by the said Con-
ventiou, to represent our church in
the conventions that were hereafter
to have been held-have often often
wondered why it was we have never
had any conventions. | am glad that
Bro. Mock has again brought the
subject up before the Sunday School
workers, therefore in accordance
with his request, THAT some brother
suggest time and place to meet to
re-organize and start on the work
afresh,n l would suggest that we
meet at the M. P. Church, New
Church, on Thursday, February Goth
at o'clock. II that day be inclement
meet next day at same hour.
think that the Sunday School
work is one of the greatest and
grandest works that the Lord has
given us to do, therefore we ought
to take a deep interest in training
the children in the way the Lord
would have them go. do hope every
church, of every denomination, will
be well represented and show broth
erly love one toward the other, and
in so doing obey the words OF our
Blessed Master, "Love one another
even as l have loved you"
