a Notable Death.

Mrs. Rebecca Cresap. aged 50, died
Saturday afternoon, 10Th inst, at her
home on the old Cresap farm. near
Rawlings, this county, where she had re-
sided 6S years. The funeral took place
Monday afternoon from her late resi-
dence; interment in the old Cresap
cemetery, near by.
She was the widow of the late Daniel
Cresap, whom she out-lived As years,
and is survived by three sons-Edward,
Stanley and John M. Cresap, and one
daughter-Mrs. S. B. Porter. Her
father was Edward McCarty, who
owned the fine Black Oak Bottom farm.
"A correspondent writes:
In her death about the last of the old set
of people along the river is removed.
The only companion left of her younger
days is her sister-in-law, Mrs. Hannah Ger
stell, of Midlothian.
Mrs. Cresap was granddaughter of
Joseph Cresap-in his lifetime owner of the
Brady farm, a soldier of the war of 1776-a
member of Capt, Michael Cresap's Company
OF American Ritlemen, and she was, there
fore, genuine Daughter of the Revolution.

how tender her love; how gentle her charity
No sacrifice was too great for her to make in
relieving distress with a practical benevo-
lence She was student of the Bible and
believed implicitly in Christianity. Her
practice was to offer the flowers of love and
tenderness to those who needed them that
they might be refreshed and made happier

them on the coffin where they cast no
fragrance backward over the weary way of
life

NOTED its noblest pursuits. Its members
were well-tO-dO, and every home dispensed
generous, splendid hospitality. The latch
string hung on the outside that strangers as
well as friends might avail of the welcome
OF which it was the unvaryiug signal.

porary generation with this is gone

Once Decided.

Hon. Murray Vandlver seeks to com
pei Gov. Warfield to advertise two pro-
posed constitutional amendments, the
latter having declined on the ground
that his signature is essential to the
validity of all legislative action.
The governor must be mistaken, how
ever, because Mayor of Frostburg was
once turned down by his Attorney Gen

point.
The Mayor believed that if he with
held his signatured approval of the Or
dinance establishing hog pens i'll town
that no hog pens could be established.
But the Attorney General held that
the Mayors signature as an indispensa-

In self-protectiOn diction-
They are formulating policy which will
