of the pure and wholesome life of Mrs.
Norris and traced briefly her mission
from the cradle to the grave.
Mrs. Morris, was of that type of the
dear old mothers who, enc might say,
laid the foundation of all that's good
and true of this republic. Her saint
ly face, courtly manners and lovable
disposition could not fail but to i'm
press all with whom she was brought
into association. 1t was a home life
that she led, but such a life as hers
reaches out and beyond the home and
purifes as no other human agencyca
She has gone to a reward that only
comes from a life we'll lived; and may

COMPANY H is INSPECTED
BY Lieut.. Col. Gardener U. S. a. and .
fine Banquet Follows

|A
Lieutenant Colonel Gardener U. 5
A. Q: Fort Smelling Mimi, inspected
Company III upon the floor OF the opera
house Tuesday evening. Capt. Quirk
had many reasons for being proud OF
the appearance OF his company as they
lined up, forty-three strong, before
the West Point graduate and seasoned
regular of many years service. And
in passing it is fitting that due praise
be given to Capt. Quirk for his fidelity
to the company and the success with
which he has held it in shape. Col
Gardener was exceedingly kind and
courteous to the boys in his inspection
duties and there was in him a notice.
able lacking of that austerity and
blunt criticism S characteristic Of
many regular army officers. Perhaps
part Of this may be accounted for from
the fact that Col. Gardener headed
the 31st Michigan volunteers in Cuba
and the 3Oth U. S. volunteers in the
Philippines and found that there were
virtues in some troops outside of the
regulars. He made the boys a nice
talk and explained fully the workings
of the new law governing the militia.
1t is not the practice of officers of
his class to indulge in empty compll-
ments, but after the inspection Col.
Gardener said that Company III was
the finest appearing body of young
men he had seen yet and he spoke par
ticularly OF their clean and neat APP
pearance and accoutrements general
". He mentioned the pride that Kim
ball should take in the company and
suggested an armory of their own.
After the inspection a banquet was
given Col. Gardener, at the Kimball
house, which was attended by most of
the business men of the town as we'll
the officers and some of men of Comfy
H-about forty in all. The banquet,
was served with four courses, includ-
ing wines, and in Mr.. Bissell's best
style:and with coffee and cigars Lieut..
H%olbrook, as POSTMASTER, opened the
flow Of Nit, wisdom and e%loquence
which followed. During the evening
he called on Col. C. S. BIodgett, John
Parker, L. A. Foote, G. j. Maynard,
Col. Gardener, Geo. W. James, E. P.
Ochsner, I. A. Weeks, w. B. Harker,
Albert Wentzy and j. III. Wolf, all Of
whom responded with remarks beft-
ting the occasion.
Lieut.. Col. Gardener, whose visit
was so thoroughly enjoyed and who. in
turn, appreciated the attention be-
slowed upon him, graduated from
West Point in 1869 and is a tine look
ing man lust past the age of fifty. He
was among the regular army officers
