OBITUARY..

In the death of Miss Elizabeth A. Barns at her
home on Court street in this city, Belfast has
lost resident whose personality is more inn
pressed in many ways upon its people than by
almost any other member of our community.
Born in Bucksport, nearly all her long life has
been spent here. When young lady she became
a school teacher. which occupation she continu-
ed for over quarter of a century, and during
that time she exerted very beneficial and in
spring influence on the many pupils she taught,
which followed them in after life. Bright,
witty and cultured, child could be under
her influence and teaching without uncon-
sciously absorbing some of her many virtues,
and being made better by them. After giving
up her school on account OF her health, she
planned and had built her pleasant home on
Court street, where she has lived for over
twenty years, enjoying the society of her
many friends. Frail in body and physically
timid, mentally she was strong and courageous,
expressing her opinions in way that made
them felt. She was very progressive, and
while much of the time she was confined to her
house, yet by constant reading. and conversing
with others, she kept well abreast the times
on all matters of common interest. She was
always loyal to her home city, and wanted the
best that could be had and done for it. As
friend she was beloved by all who knew her
Although for many years her intimates were
her juniors by many years, when she was with
them all were of the same age. She was very
fond of society and amusements, and no person,
young or old, enjoyed social game of whist
more than she. For years she had been an
invalid, and knowing that there was no hope
for her recovery she never repined, but was
always cheerful and apparently happy Her
home was always open to her many friends,
who enjoyed her society and bright conversa-
tion, as she did their companionship. She was
endowed with wonderful mind and memory,
which she retained till the last, and she was

was for many years an earnest member of the
Unitarian church, and her interest in its well
fare was always keen and manifested itself
not only by words but Deeds All that loving
hands could do to prolong her life was done,
but worn out by the long fight against weak
ness and age, she finally fell peacefully to
sleep on March 21st, in the S9th year of her
age.-G. A. Q.
