Nancy, Wife of the late Charles
Bridge, died Thursday night at the age
of 81 years, after short Illness
Mrs. Bridge was born in Kittery, Me.
Nov. q, 1917, and was the daughter of
Samuel and Ruth Austin AIMEE She
came with her father to Litchfield in
1878, and to Gardiner in 1920 and had
since lived i'll our city. Dec 90 1S4S. she
was joined in marriage to Charles
Bridge, and since his death in 1897 she
continued to live at the old home Some
two years ago by a fall she lost the
use of one of her limbs, but aside from
that was in unusually good health until
some two weeks ago, when she began
to fail rapidly. She was a member of
the Methodist church of this city for
nearly so years. Her husband was a
member of the Free Baptist church OF
tins city, and very liberal supporter
of all the interests of his church In
this he was warmly seconded by his
wife. Always pleasant, kind and inter
eStinS, she loved to do good and in
every way possible did all she could to
socthe the troubles of others Jointly
with her husband she took. an active
interest in young people and aided
many not only by kindly words and adj
vice, but by substantial deeds never
letting the one hand know what the
other was doing. Her long life of kind
ly deeds and usefulness is over, but
there are many friends and neighbors
who will shed a kindly tear as they re-
call her many virtues, and rejoice that
the life of one who has done so much
for others has been spared SO long.

society were simple but stringent.
Love of God and Of suffering humans
ty, without reference to self. was the
keynote of their mission. Such was
the birth Of the great. charitable So
ciety of ST. Vincent De Paul. which
since that time has become world
wide Its success,is due chiefly to the
efforts Of Ozanam, himself, which were
essentially service Of love.l When
ever there was nakedpess to be. cloth
ed tears to be wiped away. soul to
be comforted, he recognized . claim
and answered it. His manner towards
the poor was eonsfderate and as de.
ferential as towards his equals.
His work taxed all his energies and
often robbed him Of his necessary
rest In August, 1886. his strength
was so far undermined that he was
ordered to take long rest. He lived
for some years but in fact never re-
covered.
Eight years later he returned to

ceivcd in the imagination of men.
There we may behold those familiar
characters which in turn appeal to the
minds Of men. The child early, creates
for himself world nearly as fair and
glorious as that from which he has just
come. He lives entranced in fairy land
and delights to read of Prince Charm
ing, who was cured of discomfort by the
pricking of his ring and the sleeping
beauty waiting hundred years to be
released. Again the thanksgiving Hector
and the God-like' Archilfos seem to
stand before him in almost visible pres
ence. When he hears the shrieking and
the moaning of the wind and sees the
swirling dust of the city streets he pic
lures to himself the plains of wind
swept Troy alive with the figures of
warriors and resounding with the
claehing of their arms.
Next, the boy is thrilled with the
great sacrifice of Sydney Carton, who
quietly gave his life for this friend
mid the horrors of the French Revo-
luton and who thus redeemed part of
failure and disappointment. Yet moth
ing moves him more deeply than the
story of .that true gentleman and gen.
TEST man." old Colonel Newcome, dy-
ing after a life of virtue and devotion
on bed of poverty in the charter
house.
The man turns to the ideal in litera-
turc for refreshing and renewing of
strength. He is lead to look beneath
the externals of life to what is more
important, the spirit within. He is
cheered by the healthy cytermism of
the poet Browning, who wrote of life.
"How good is mans life the mere living,
How fit to employ,
All the heart, and the soul. and the Senses
Forever in joy"
AT last Shakespeare comes and paints
for the old man the passions and the
lows of the life which he himself has
row seen in 50 many varied forms.
Then finally he turns to the majestic
prophecies of the Old Testament and
again to the mystic revelations of the
New alid finds in the knowledge of the
things which are to be, a lasting peace
and hope.
Thus books prove themselves to be
the silent friends of men. They make
their appeal to the best there is in him
and are continually giving him fresh
courage to rise through failure tc
higher things.
