Mayburg.

1t is some time since 1 wrote, but bust
ness and sickness often stops all cores
p%ondence. But since l wrote you last,
Mayburg has passed through some things
that we would rather not record.
Thomas Reding, one of the mill boys
got caught in a set screw and had his leg
crushed and bruised so that he is still in
bed.
l.. d. Smith, our clearinghouse keep
err, has been down with a bad rash on his
face said TO be erysipelas.
Another young man brought down
from the woods with his leg broken at
the ankle.
Then the fire. Brown Il McManigle's
round house burned up on Thursday eve
ming, burned one locomotive and singed
another. Loss about $500.
Then comes the death of Harry Ray
horn, of typhoid fever. We all knew
Harry was sick, but no n thought of
death being so nigh, and it was a shock
one morning to hear Of his death. He
was a nice young man, attended to his
own business, let everyboay's else alone.
The funeral services by Rev. Zahniser at
the school house, were largely attended
and were very impressive. Interment at
Hickory.
The last few days of warm weather
have been a welcome change from %
below zero, but this morning it was 10
below again.
Boyd Winans, who was finishing up a
small house at Mayburg went home with
a bad face, which confined him to the
house for ten days.
Don't like to write so much about sick
ness, but its about all the news there is
here. May be better soon, at least we
hope so. MORE ANON.

RECENT DEATHS.
Il LoHN THoMoN.

Mrs. Thomson, relict of the late John
Thomson, passed peacefully away in the
night Of Sunday, Jan. 10th, 1904, at the
home of her son, Albert, at Jameson
station, near Tionesta. Mrs. Thomson
had been in her usual health. but on
Sabbath evening had spoken Of a slight
pain or irritation in her left side. She
retired at the usual hour, but did not rise
in the morning as was her custom, and a
member OF the family went to her room
to awaken her. She was found as though
in peaceful slumber, but it was quickly
discovered that the spirit had fled. There
was 40 evidence of any struggle or
movement of the body, and it is likely
that death had come without the slightest
warning.
Jeanette McCulloch Thomson, was
born in Ayrshire, Scotland, Sept. LIST, 1923,
where she grew to young womanhooG,
and where, Oct. l6, ls49, she was united
in marriage with John Thomson. On the
18th of Oct. 1850, this happy young couple
set sail for the land of freedom, landing
on the American side in nine weeks and
three days, a voyage which is now often
made in less than six days. Their first
stop wa at Erie, Pr, and from there
they came to Stewart Run, this county,
overland. Here the sturdy young hus-
band purchased a tract ofland and began
clearing up a farm, and where together
they lived happily, notwithstanding the
many h~ardships Of those pioneer days,
for over 80 years, rearing a larLe family
of girls and boys. Mr.. Thomson was a
carpenter by trade, and built many OF the
houses now standing in Tionesta. Dur
ing all these years his beloved wife was
an helpmeet indeed, entering into his
joys and sorrows as only a true and de-
voted wife can do. Not long after the
death of her companion, which occurred
May 6, 1901, the deceased came to live
with her youngest son, Albert, at jamie
son Station, and where she was afforded
all the comforts she could desire until
the hour of her sudden and peaceful pass
ing away.
The separation from her venerable
companion was a shock from which
she never fully recovered, and although
her stay on earth was made as peaceful
and pleasant as was possible by her chill
dren, she longed for a reunion with
the one with whom in younger days she
had shared the joys as well as vicissitudes
OF life. And so God took the good moth
Ell as she slept.
The children surviving are as fellows:
Hugh M, Bradner, Ohio; Mary j. MRS.
@. Jamiesonl, OF Tionesta; John A., of
Chicago, H.; Bessie NJ. (Mrs.J .R. Clark,
Tionesta; James D., Nebraska, Pa;
Charles F., Bradner, Ohio; Frank r.,
Bloomdale, Ohio; Gilbert NJ, Chicago,
and Albert L., Tionesta township.
Funeral services will be held in the
NJ. L. church at = o'clock this afternoon,
conducted by Rev. o. II. Nickle, and the
remains will be laid to rest in Riverside
cemetery, beside those of her husband
and other kindred.

following old hen story, which is nota bad
one: "Henry w. Miller, a Beaver VAL
ley agriculturist and poultry %iancier, was
in Kellrtyille a few days ago doing some
shopping and while here hunted up the
correspondent and related a story about
one of his fowls that is certainly remark
able and perhaps hasn't its equal in tho
State. Mr.. Miller says that about two
weeks age a choice brown Leghorn hen
died, aged II years and 7 months. The
hen was Clipped on the John Brecht
farm on Brecht Hill and presented to
George Miller. then a mere lad, son of
Mr.. Miller. The hen, though a good
producer of eggs during its younger days,
had ceased to add any wealth to the ex-
chequer of its master for the past eight
wears. Four years ago it was noticed that
the winters we're beginning to add to the
2 iscomfor of this aged fowl and a suita-
BILE place was arranged for it in warmer
quarters. About this same time she be-
gan to assume masculine traits and would
crow as loud and long as the most vigor-
GUS cock that grsced the hennery. She
supported gaffles that were fully three
inches in length and when put to use,
which was almost a daily occurrence,
she could wallop the best fighters. Mr..
Miller does not state that old age was the
cause of death, but as the second annual
show of the Forest County Poultry and
Pet Stock Association, which has Just
closed, does not include this hen at their
exhibition, to show her beauty, we infer
that she died OF a broken heart superin-
duced by old age. MIR. Miller is one Of
the hoys in blue who won distinction in
the sixties and being a devoted member
of the NJ. Il. church, the truthfnlness of
the story should not be questioned"
