/ Mrs. Diana Brigham passed away Nov.
% at South Royalton, after many years OF
illness and suffering.
Mrs. Brigham was born Dec. 25. 1871,
in Chelsea. She married Harvey s. Brig
ham at Mortified. They lived for some
years at Tunbridge, and later on at
Lowell. On account OF Mr.. Brigham's
poor health, they lived for q time in
Pennsylvania, and after his death there,
Mrs. Brigham returned to New England
aud passed most OF her latter days at Mat
den, Mass. She had been an invalid for
about twenty years. The writer had the
privilege OF being her pastor for several
years, her membership being in the Ma
plev God Congregational church Of NAL
den. She was always a patient, and al
most always q cheerful sufferer. She was
received into the membership of the Ma
plewood Congregational church by letter
from the church in Lowell, Vermont,
without being able to be present at the
time OF her reception by the church. She
made host Of friends IN Maiden, who
we're always glad to visit her, counting it
privilege and not a duty both while she
was a resident in Maiden, and later on
while she was an inmate OF a suitable
home institution, in Roxbury.
Hers was one Of those sick rooms
which are always sanctuaries. Weak and
suffering herself, she cheered and in
spired others by her courage, her faith,
her deep appreciation of all that was done
for her, and her unselfsh interest in
others.
Hers is one Of the most helpful OF the 1
Of personal relations in the 1
years when the writer occupied the very
pleasant pastorate in her church, in NAL
den. 1t is also Joy to feel that she has
gone to the rest which she awaited, and
which in faith we believe awaited her.

The funeral OF little Ernest Hewitt, cid

Of South Royalton, aged eight years, who
was killed last week Wednesday by being
stricken down by freight engine while
crossing the track, was held at the home
Of his parents on Saturday following
Rev. Sherman Goodwin officiating. The
funeral was private. His death was a
great shock to the community. The lit
tie lad was intimately known by the viii
lage people as he seldom ever passed a
person without speaking. He was a
bright, active, cheerful boy and was in
advance of his years in intelligence.
At the time OF the accident he was re-
turning to school after the dinner hour
and had to cross the railroad tracks at the
south end OF the switch yard. When he
arrived at the crossing. two freight trains
we're passing in opposite directions. Evil
IDENTIFY he knew of but one, that one pass
ing nearest him covering the sight OF the
other. As its rear end passed him, he inn
mediately attempted to cross the tracks
and the other engine being close by he
had only time to cross when he was
struck upon his head by the pilot-head
block or the cylinder OF the engine and
hurled is feet down an embankment.
He was taken to his home. DR.. Il. j.
Fish was called and arrived in a few
minutes. DR.. Clifford OF Randolph was
called and arrived an hour later. They
found the skull at the base OF the brain
badly fractured and announced fatal in
jury. He lived three hours after the acct
dent occurred. It was one OF the saddest
accidents in the history of the town.
