John Kelley was graduated last June
from Bacon Academy, in which insti-
tuition he proved himself an ardent
student Of the most gentlemanly man
ners. He gained the appreciation Of
the instructors and was very popular
among his schoolmates.
He showed unusual musical talent in
the skill with which he he learned to
play the piano. For some time he play
ed in the local orchestra, and with his
brothers, Joseph and Edward, gained
quite reputation. But the trumpet
of Gabriel called Edward to the king
dom of God, and thereby disturbed
John and the other members Of the
family to the utmost.
Last fall, after hard and persistent
study during the summer months. John
was appointed to teach In Turnerville.
But, overdone with hard study and
later the shock of Edwards death. it
was found necessary for him to give
up teaching in few weeks.
Nothing was left undone, on the part
OF the family. to strengthen the young
man. He was sent to a healthy local
ity but all attempts seemed vain. After
various forms Of treatment he return
ed home from Hampton to die among
his native hills. Last Tuesday morn
ing his sorrowing friends and relatives
laid him beside his dear mother, broth
er Edward. and other members of the
family gone before, in St Andrews
cemetery.

mainder of the world appears quite ex-

''Following my mothers example, home

of the truly feminine the more we get

most powerful and richest the world has
ever seen. Take the history of Pennsyl-

her development and upbuilding, and the
history varying in different environment
Is the same of every state in the Union.

men to govern the part allotted to them

gagged in uplifting and too few trying to
make homes comfortable for their fathers,
