of the location of their find, but say
it cannot be reached save by making
an extremely dangerous trip and n
filed with hardship. especially at this
time of the year, when the mountains
are firmly In winters icy grasp. In
the spring they will return and de.
velop their find.
In a rough and mountainous section,
they say, they found a gray quartz
ledge. literally filled with precious
metal. Small pieces were broken off,
pounded up in a frying pan which they
had with them and the gold picked out
by the mems fingers and placed in n
bottle. Should the ledge prove as
rich as the samples, a man could make
a mortar and gold pan, and in a
weeks time take out enough OF the
gold to make him wealthy.
AS an evidence of their find they
have the little bottle of gold dust,
which has already been viewed by
dozens of people. and tests have been
made by o. ID. Johnson which prove
that the mineral is genuine.-Wenat.

ST. SWlTHlN AND RAIN.
The Legend of the Chapel Over the
Bishops Grave.

The Legend Of the Chapel Over th'
Bishops Grave.
The superstitions referring to par
ticular days are very numerous. The
legend of st. Swithin is an example
that will occur to every one:
st. swithins day, If thou dost rain,
For forty days 1t will remain;
st. Swithin's day, II thou be fair,
For forty days twill rain nae mair.
st. Swithin, bishop of Winchester, ac
cordlng to the author of THE Popular
Antiquities" was "a man equally not
ed for uprightness and humility. Sc
far did he carry the latter virtue that
on his deathbed he requested to be
buried not within the church, but out
side the churchyard on the north Of the
sacred building, where his corpse might
receive the eavesdropplngs from the
roof and his grave be trodden by the
feet of passersby. His lowly request
was complied with, and In this neglect
ed spot his remains reposed till about
100 years afterward, when fit OF
pious indignation seized the clergy al
the fact that the body Of SO holy q
member of their order was allowed tC
occupy such position. and on an ap
pointed day they all assembled to con
vey it with great pomp to the adjoin
ing cathedral of Winchester. When
they were about to commence the cere
mony heavy rain burst forth and con
tinued without intermission for the
forty succeeding days. The monks In
terpreted this tempest as q warning
from heaven of the blasphemous nature
of their attempt to contravene the di'
rection of st. Swithin, and instead OF
disturbing his remains they erected q
chapel over his grave" "St Swithin Is
christening the apples" is the more po-
etical way Of describing st. Swithin's

 Our mother inherited her fathers fine temperament. Of a retiring dis position, her influence for good was felt chiefly within the home circle. This included not only her own family but also the numerous guests with whom our house was so often filled. To her children she was the mother beloved during her long life of 96 years. My grandfather died on the 4th of July, 1922. My grandmother remained on the farm for about 20 years, con- tlnuipg to reside there as long as she could care for herself. When con- vinced that she could do this no longer she came to our mother, dying of can. cer in the throat at the age of S1 years. I was still boy when she passed away but she left lasting impression on my mind and heart by her loving, ge- nial and kindly ways. This account of the home life of my grandparents would have found counterpart in it's general features in many other homes in Ripton parish at that time. It is such home training that has made the sons and daughters of New England such a power for good in the building of our nation.-[Charles T. Morse.

After some years of married life she was left widow with three small children.

Castle, who lived with her at the old homestead, Austin 1. Castle, now living in Bridgewater, and Mrs F. N. Potter, living in Huntington. Mrs Castle was 89 years of age. She was member of the Congregational church in this place and had been for over 50 years, and was always a regu- lar attendant until her old age pre- vented.
