TOWNSHEND.
The Late Mrs. Lura Scott Richardson.

Many of the older residents will be in
terested in a more extended account
Of Mrs. Lura Scott Richardson, whose
death was previously reported as having
taken place at Sioux city, Iowa, Aug. 3
after a lingering illness Of almost two
years duration. a paper has recently
been received from Sioux city, and I'M
der the heading Much Loved Woman
No More together with fine picture of
Mrs. Richardson, appear these lines:
Mrs Bura Scott Richardson was born
in Townshend, VT, January II, 1887 She
spent her childhood at that place and at
tended Leland seminary and there COM
menCed her school days. In 1885 she
was married to Rev. G. II. Richardson,
an instructor in the seminary. After
passing through the anxious days of the
civil war when Rev Mr. Richardson
went to the front as chaplain, the family
moved to Romeo, Mich, where Mr.. Rich
ardson had charge in the Baptist
church. In 1878 they moved yet farther
west to Minnesota, where, after year,
on account of i'll health, Mr.. Richardson
retired from the active ministry and upon
the advice Of William L. JOY, who had
been a colleague with him, came to
Sioux City. where the family has since re-
sided. The husband and father died here
a few years ago.
Mrs. Richardson was a woman Of more
than ordinary ability. one of her greater
ambitions was to be an artist, but ner
devotion to her family prevented her,
until late in life, from following the bent
of her nature. But whenever she had
opportunity she studied, and al the age
of 81 years she entered the Chicago Art
Institute for term. III health caused
her to desist, but until almost the last
week of her life her intense interest in
art continued.

Atlanta, Ga, Jan. % Congress
man Brantley has wired the Baptist
ministers Of Atlanta that he will not
support the Littlefeld-Dolliver anti
jug bill, but that he will vote for ana
support the Brantley c. o. D. bill.
Congressman Brantley gives as his
reason that he does not think tne
Littlefeld bill would be constitutional.
Whether it % constitutional or not
the Baptist ministers Of Atlanta, and
practically eyer other organization
of ministers here and elswhere in
Georgia, IS anxious to have 1t passed
and they are sending petitions to the
congressman to put 1t through.
AS is doubtless known, this bill
provides for akIng care of those com
munities where prohibition has been
declared, even if 1t is, not made ef
fectiye, and woufosSf1s affect 100 dry
counties In Georgia by enabling them
TO shut out the Jug trade with the
nelD OF the state.
The Littlefeld-Dolllyer bill not only
provides that G. Q. d. package shall
be equivalent a sale at tne place Of
destination, but that states shall have
control over Interstate shipments Of IL
quors. The Frantley bill cuts out the
latter provision and hence would
not bring about the condition which
is sought to be established
Some time ago the town of Law
Irenceville, in Gwinett county, passed
an ordinaHcS1puttins 900 tax on
all express and ra1rros.A companies
bringing liquor shipments in to the
place. The Georgia supreme court
held that the ordinance was uneonstl-
tutional in that it violated the inter
state commerce provision of the Uni
ted States constitution. With such
law as the Littlefeid.Doliver bill
proposes there would be no dInI-
Guilty in enforcing such q local provis-
ion and making the local option
counties dry in fact as well as in
name.
