Thursday, June A, an esteemed citizen,
Charles Theodore Bunker, died after a
brief illness from peritonitis resulting
from stomach trouble, which had for two
years past asserted itself at intervals,
keeping him from his business for day or
two at time.
He had been merchant here for years
a strictly honest man in his dealings, one
in whom his townsmen had entire conf
dence, and by whom he will be much
missed. During Cleveland's two admin
istrations, he was postmaster, and proved
an otliging, courteous official. For a
while in the 'fifties, he was on the Pacific
coast.
A member of the Ellsworth masonic
lodge, his funeral was held under masonic
orders, delegates from Ellsworth joining
the Masons here in the impressive service
at his late home Sunday afternoon.
Mr.. Bunker was the son of the late
Theodore and Maria Bunker. Five
brothers survive him-Josiah, George,
Pearl, Lafayette and Fred, also two sisters
Mrs. Alfred Bunker and Mrs. George
Patten. The deceased was devoted hus-
band and father. The afflicted widow and
two sons-H. G. and Eugene, have the sin:
cere sympathy of all. The floral offerings
were beautiful. Interment was in the
family lot in Bay View cemetery.

Mrs. Croker, when seen by the writer.
said: ~ have worked very hard and some
fourteen years ago became run down in
health and strength and in fact got SO
weak that it was necessary to call physi-
clan, who said that had very bad case
OF liver trouble, and an liberated stomach;
the liberated stomach is what caused me
so much pain and my liver trouble caused
my constipation and severe headaches.
took treatment and followed it up for sew
eral months, but seemed to get no perma-
nent relief. My suffering grew worse and
none OF the local doctors seemed to be
able to help me. l was advised to go to
Boston, where l consulted several spec
ialists; still, l continued to suffer and
constantly grew larger and was told it
was enlargement of the liver. After be-
ing treated in Boston some time went to
Lowell, Mass, where also consulted sew
eral physicials. but as seemed to get no
better, l came to Portland and went into
the hospital; the treatment at the hos
pitai and the rest seemed to do me little
good, but shortly was as bad OF as ever,
so went to Lewiston and again consulted
physician, but they all seemed to tell
me the same story = that I had an en-
larged liver, a stomach trouble, kidney
trouble, together with valvular heart
trouble that at times would throw me into
spasms which would last so long that nv
husband and neighbors thought would
never come out OF them, as I would be
perfectly unconscious and cold as though
was dead. l gradually grew worse and
kept bloating, as the doctors called it.
from gas i'm my stomach and bowels, until
about four years ago, when one OF Ban
gor's leading physicians made an exam
ination and told me l had fibroid tumof.
This seem very strange after SO many ply
sicians in Boston, Lowell, Mass; Port
land, Lewiston and Bangor, Me-, had told
me it was my stomach trouble which af-
fected my heart, causing those dreadful
headaches and numb spells. After being
informed that had a tumor, consulted
eight physicians and they all agreed that
II was tumor and that the only relief
was an operation at the hospital. but

that had been removed by DR.. Morrow

in regard to my case, he asked me how

The high school commencement exercises
Thursday evening were most agreeably
carried out. The citizens generally gave
the participants in their laudable efforts
strong evidence OF cordial recognition
and the graduates were successful in theil
desire to please and entertain.
Busy graduates and undergraduates
had transformed town hall by an attract
i've arrangement Of evergreens. Green
and gold being the class colors evergreens
formed background, and arches of the
same spanned the stage, with modest
display of the gold. Potted plants were
used with good effect. Above all was the
class motto artistically lettered by DR.. H.
F. Collins.
The entrance Of the graduates, accompan-
led by their teacher, Mr.. Powers, former
assistant teacher, Miss Mace, and Super
intendent Clark, was the herald for the
opening strains Of music by the ladies'
orchestra of three pieces from Bar Harbor.
Themusic was chamingly rendered. Unde-
niably the s.sweet-girl graduate" was re-
flected in each OF the six young ladies
composing the class. The young men
deserve share of the praise too for all
acquitted themselves admirably.
The occasion, which will long remain
a pleasant memory to those attending,
cannot but serve as an incentive to the
undergraduates to persevere and do like
wise. Following is the programme:
Music
Prayer
Music
Salutatory-"The value of friendship"
Marcia. Alice Gordon
Oration-"Success''.. Dallas Leon Tracey
Glass History. Ethel Natalie Eldridge
Music
Address to undergraduates,
verna Christina Lawrie
Class Prophecy Della Alton Bragdou
Music
Presentation of gifts. Edna Mae..Donnell
Valedictory-"Non palma sine lahore"
Daisy Gordon
Friday evening the reception took place,
after q concert by orchestra. The graduates
received on the stage, with Mrs. Fl. F. Col
Inns, Mrs. ]. w. Blaisdell and Mrs. Angus
tus Bunker in the resolving line. The
musical programme included solo by
Mrs. Watson, Miss Florence Dunn accom-
PIANIST.
During intermission march to town
hall was made. Here another transforma-
tion was evident. At each supporting
pillar was an evergreen tree suggesting
woody retreat. Couch covers and pillows
made the settees more inviting. Ice cream
was served, and delightful social time
was had during the interval. Fruit punch
was served in upper hall the entire even
ing.
