Professional Tribute TO Judge
--- WOrthingtOh.

The following communication is clipped
from the columns of the Baltimore Sun of
August 9th, 1909:
Reading in The Sun the result of the
Democratic judicial convention in Rock
vile last Saturday nominating unanimously
Judge Glenn II. W0rthingt0n. OF Frederick.
for chief judge of the Sixth Judicial cir
cult, recalls an experience the writer had
last winter--an incident which ! believe
will prove of interest to the voters Of Fred
erick and Montgomery counties and
source of pleasure to Judge Worthingt0n's
friends and supporters:
THE writer was at a luncheon in the
Merchants Club, Baltimore, with two law
yers of the Baltimore bar of decided promi-
nence. One of the lawyers was telling OF
a case before the Court Of Appeals. The
opinion had recently been handed down.
written by Judge Worthington. 1t was adj
verse to the interests this lawyer repre-
sented. He said AT first when hearing
that the Court of Appeals had decided
against me | was sorely disappointed.
Since reading the opinion written by Judge
Worthington am quite convinced the case
was rightly decided. had never thought
of the question in exactly that light before.
This is the second case have argued be-
WorthingtOn wrote the opinion. and on
both occasions and from both opinions
have been impressed with his ability as a
judge.
THE second lawyer present replied i
have never been before Judge Worthine-
ton, but your impressions confirm several
favorable criticisms of him and his record
in the Court Of Appeals have heard re-
Gently from members Of this bar
ut is quite unusual for one to hear
lawyer on the losing side compliment the
judge who writes the opinion. This fact
impressed me as being quite compliment
to Judge Worthington's ability, coming
from the source it did. 1t was my inten-
ton to tell him personally Of this when
met him. | think it better. however, to adj
wise him through the columns of The Sun
at time when The Sun is making such
an able and commendable campaign to
elect to the judiciary men who have proved
by service their worth and fitness for the
bench independent of party affiliations.
in this portion of Maryland we are most
grateful to The Sun for advocating the re-
election of Judge Boyd. 1t is helping his
cause greatly.

LuttreIl BipIane Ready.

Samuel A. Luttrell, who began construc-
ton on an aeroplane about six months ago,
has finished the machine, and now has it
housed in a shed near Garrett Park. this
county Only few minor adjustments
and improvements remain to be made on
the aeroplane, when it will be ready for a
try-Out.
Mr.. Luttrell has large tract of ground
near Garrett Park, and several times dur
ing the past few weeks he has taken the
machine on the field for the purpose of
experimenting. Several times the aero
plane has left the ground, but as yet has
not made record breaking flights. Mr.. Lut
trell is sanguine that it will fly as well as
the aeroplane in which Orville Wright and
Lieut. Foulois Travelled from Fort Myer to
Alexandria.
The Luttrell aeroplane is modelled after
the Wright aeroplane, except that it is
shorter and broader.
1t has two planes, one above the other,
made of waterproof canvas, and braced
with bamboo upright. strengthened with
strong steel wire. The rudders in front
and behind the planes are similar to those
of other big planes. Motive power is fur
nished by 25-horsepower Buick automo-
bile engine.
Mr.. Luttrell has embodied in the ma
chine many new ideas of his own. 1t is
possible that after the try-out of the aero
plane he will offer it to the War Department.
which still has an appropriation of more
$4,000 available for the purchase of a
machine owing to the cancellation of the
contract of A. M. Herring. who did not de-
liver an aeroplane he had agreed to turn
over to the signal corps the last of July

SAMUEL A. MATLACK.
He Was Citizen of Rockville for
More Than Half a Century.

The last issue of the SENTINEL contained
| brief announcement of the death of Mr..
Samuel A. Matlack, who passed away at
his home, in this place. on Thursday morn
ing, August 10Th, 1909, after brief illness
of Bright's disease. He had been in fail
ing health for year or more, but his physi-
cal energy and strong will kept him up and
about in the performance of his duties as
member of the Rockville Town Council
until short time before his death.
Mr.. Matlack was native of Leesville,
Ohio, and was born on October 3Oth, 1881.
In 1855 he removed to Washington, d. c..
and for short time worked as compost
tor on the Evening Star. A little later he
came to Rockville and accepted employ
ment in the Office of the SENTINEL. In De-
cember, 1855, he married Miss Annie Eliz-
abeth Davis, daughter of the late Joshua
Davis, of this place. Mrs. Matlack died in
1856, leaving three children-Mordicai j.,
who died shortly after reaching his ma
jority, and Misses Agnes and Mamie, who
reside in Rockville. Excluding the time
served by Mr.. Matlack in the Confederate
army as a member of Whites Battalion, he
was resident of Rockville for just about
half a century and retained his connection
with the SENTINEL office throughout the
entire period At the time of his death he
was lieutenant-c commander of Ridgely
Brown Camp of Confederate Veterans and
was the Oldest surviving ex-Confederate
soldier of this county.
Mr.. Matlack was a man of substantial
and engaging qualities. He was thoroughly
honest, loyal to his convictions and con-
scientious in the discharge of his duties as
an employee and citizen. He was COM
petent all-round printer of the old school,
and conversed and wrote forcefully and
to the point. Possessing fine sense of
humor, he was noted throughout the county
for his witty sayings and his inexhausti-
BILE fund of pithy and puneent anecdotes,
for one of which his memory was never at
loss when requisite ito point moral or
adorn tale" He lived and died an I'M
compromising Democrat, and was a faithful
devotee of 1.-The lost cause"
In his declining days Mr. Matlack looked
forward to the end with calm composure
and apparently without regret, except for
the severance of his earthly ties. as if ex-
employing the maxim which offers so much
comfort to all mankind:
Death is the crown of life.
Were death denied. poor man would live
in vain.
Were death denied, to live would not be
life."
The funeral took place on Saturday morn
ing last from st. Mary's Catholic Church.
Requiem Mass was celebrated by Rev.
Philip B. Mcclure, and the sermon was
preached by Rev James F. Mackin, of
Washington. Col Spencer c. Jones, Capt.
James Anderson, Edmund l.. Amiss and
David Griffith, members of RidGely Brown
Camp of Confederate Veterans, were hon
orary pallbearers. The active pallbearers
were also ex-Confederates, including David
H. Horner, Elgar L. Tschiffely, Cooke D..
Luckett, Richard P. Hays, Magnus Thomp-
son and William Duffey. Interment was
in the family lot in the cemetery adjoining
St. Mary's Church.

MY MOTHERS GRAVE.


Amid our labOrs here below,
And pleasure, thoughts of gain,
And other things We fail TO do
For self and dearest friend
There is thing that you should know,
Remember please, your mothers grave.
'Tis not because our times too dear,
For we have time to lose, to spare.
But It's place we should repair,
Keep fresh and radiant with the rose,
The lily diadem or maize,
My mothers grave, my mothers grave.
My mothers grave, the spot of all
That's left on earth for me,
The memories back for me to call
Der mountain, dale. or lea,
These things that's left for me praise,
NV mothers grave. my mothers grave.
All mothers heart, so loving, true,
Which once beat strong for only me
Amid life's cares so strangely true,
No matter what the cost might be,
So now ask, must not save
Mothers grave. my mothers grave?
On mothers grave the weeds will grow.
Time pluck the sacred spot to me.
And reap the harvest that we SOW,
And eat the fruit from off the tree
or love which mother left and gave,
Mothers grave, my mothers grave.
Oh, mothers grave. that sacred spot.
NV tenderest care should be for thee,
No matter where cast my lot,
On mountain, plain, or DER the sea,
There one thing sure, for ] must save
AZ 80
NV mothers love was true to me,
Forgot me not amid life's cares.
Then why should not care to see
And keep the place. have interest there,
Crop the grass and pull the blades
From off that spot, my mothers grave.
If were there and mother here,
Shed watch and keep my grave so clear
OF grass and weeds and briars too
That other folks who did not know
Whereof the briars failed to grow
Upon that place, her darlngs grave.
Then why should /, with health and
strength,
Neglect the place, not care to keep
And deck with lily, rose so sweet,
The place where mother lies in dust
And ashes too, beneath the clods
OF Gods green earth. my mothers grave.
Then, think you not, my friend, be true
Your mothers grave in memory keep.
Your duty calls, it is to you.
The seeds you SOW. you must reap.
Do not neglect, what e'er your lot,
Your mothers grave, that sacred spot.
The city's dead you visit then,
And see poor and richest men,
And see tOmbs Of humble, great,
Neglected places and finely kept,
And then come back and cast tear
Upon the grave Of mother, dear.
Then cast an eye around, about
Those things that's earthly, nor remote,
You'll see some things that you should
know.
And hear some things that's painful
true,
About that place, do not care,
mo interest there, my mothers grave.
A mothers grave, who does know
Is soon forgotten here below.
Mid strife and greed and love Of pelf
And other things that are for self2
But still remember as you 90
The seeds you SOW. and mothers grave.
And when from earth we rise to soar
Up to our home above,
Thoughts Of earth and time no more,
Saved by grace, redeemed by love,
Could we look back TO that dear spot,
Our mothers grave, we ne'er forgot
