When Oracle died,
Twas in the merry Christmastide,
All the earth resounded to the glad
refrain
OF Christ, the lamb for sinners slain.
But gloom and grief was in our heart,
Ear from our darling we had to part,
We clothed her for the grave, and
When Oracle died.
We robed her in a pure white gown,
And brushed the nut-brown tressei
down
So smoothly in their accustomed
place,
And took a last look at that dear face
Then moaned and broken-hearted
sighed,
When Oracle died.
1t seemed as if the blessed sun
Its mission here on earth had done,
And never more would shine for us,
But at last we learned to put our trust
In the All-Infinite beyond the Great

Interesting Lecture at State Street
Church.


The lecture of Hon. V. A Lewis
at the State Street M. E. Church
last night was we'll attended by an
appreciative audience which lister
ed attentatively for more than an
hour 10 remarkably interesting
account of the life of Anne Bailey,
the pioneer heroine of the Great
Kanawha valley. The lecturer an
nounoed at the beginning of his
discourse that he had no use for
legends or traditions but that fact,
alone woul1 enter into the account
of his heroine. and a large pumber
of interesting incidents gathered
together after assiduous research
were ably presented. all of which
could be substantiated by docu-
mentary evidence or the testimony
of eye-witnesses. The remarkable
history of this noble woman furr-
ishes ample proof that truth is
ronger than fiction. Her remains
now rest in historic ground at Point
Pleasant. where it is hoped that
the Colonial Danes of America
will rear fitting monument to the
memory of the woman who did SO
much for her country at the time
of the great peril -Charleston Ge-
