Much sorrow is felt here at the death
of Rev. William NJ. Kimmell in Platts-
burgh, N. Y, a few days since. Mr..
Kimmell when settled in Charlestown,
Mass, spent several summers at Paris
Hill with Mrs. Kimmell and preached in
the Universalist church. A few years
since on account of throat trouble he
left the ministry and went into business
in Plattsburgh, but was just about to re-
enter the ministry, and had accepted a
call to the Universalist church in
Stougbton, Mass, at the time of his
death. Mr.. Kimmell was a very able
preacher, and an exceptionally devout
man, of the highest type of Christian
character.
Miss Mary /. Mellen, who has been
away through the winter, has returned
home and re-opened her house here.
