Rev. R. T. Coursey strained a tendo
or ligament of one of his legs before goin

evening was disagreeabe.
A sad occurrence of the afternoon wa
the funeral of Captain James KINNEY
who died in Philadelphia on Thursday
quite suddenly. The remains were
brought to Harbeson, on the noon train
of Sunday, and at o'clock the funeral
was held in the NJ Z. Church, by the
Rev. r. T. Coursey, after which the re-
mains were deposited in tie vault which
he had built, few years ago Captain
Kimmy's wife, Mrs. Fannie Kimmy,
was buried here in this vault about five
weeks ago, and the deaths of these two
persons so close together, and so closely
allied to each other, makes this occasion
peculiarly sad. Captain Kimmy was a
native of Milton, and wife of nearby.
The former was for many years captain
of note, and at one time had a most
splendid vessel built in Milton Later he
returned, and at the time of his death
was engaged in business in Philadelphia.
This pair-or shall 1 say one-is another
demonstration of love of fcountry:-After
the cares of life are over, they are brought
back, by their own request, to sleep be-
meath the soil of their own loved Broad
kiln.
