1t is with a feeling of profound s0r-
row that we chronicle the deaf tn at her
| home in Shannon of Mrs Evelin Ne
/ Elwrath, wife of Mr. r L FcElwrath,
after few days illness. The announce
ment of the serious condition Of Mrs:
McElwrath brought to the h, arts of
her many friends the greatest sOlicitnde
and her early death brought a common
sorrow. On the threshold of life. sur.
rounded by a happy family, loved and
admired by all, her taking away truly
seems untImely; but IN the shadow
OF death we can only bow to the will Of
| an all wise Providence. A home is made
| desolate by the absence of a noble chris
ton wife and mother; May the com,
| fort that is promised to them that
mourn sustain the bereayad husband
and children and other relatives is our
sincere wish.
1t was our pleasure on Sun day last
to hear IA most excellent sermon by Rev
IL. L. Cunningham at the Methodist t
| church. There was large congrega-
tion present who were delighted with
the discourse and manifested their ap
probation of it by the closest of attet-
tion. Mr.. Cunningham during his ac-
