His Last Farewell,

An eDecting scene at the funeral Of
the late Mrs. Elizabeth Snyder at Will
Transport was when aged John Glenn
ents, a wellknown colored citizen, of
Williamsport, arrived and wept be-
side the body Of ibis old mistress and
lifelong friend.
When Mrs. snyder was married be-
fore tae Civil War among her many
gifts was this man, John Clements, a
present from her father-in-law, Mr..
Ensminger He was picked servant
and fine, strong young man. He is
so now and feeble but never did he
cease to love and revere his old 'miss-
usn in whose home aud for whom he
worked 50 many years. Before the war
an uu settling of slave holdings in
Maryland, Mrs. Snyder was ad ised to
sell John and get her money but she
steadfastly refused, saying it was not
right to deal in human beings like cat
tie and that John had been too faith
full and true and all the advice went
for nothing. She had an offer of 81 200
for the man when he was in his vigor
and she refused that as she did all the
offers and then the war came and re-
! leased John but it did not release or
! interfere with the admiration and
| loyalty of the man. Though free man
John was faithful to her and to her
memory and he never failed in atten-
ton or service to her. He was grieved
when the tidings came of her illness,
| he was cast down when he knew that
she must leave, and when he came tC
the house to take her by her dead hand
and say farewell forever, the sorrow OF
the aged retainer was infectious and
his tears and lamentation drew kin
bred tokens of grief from many an eye
so sincere, so deeply sincere it was He
held the hand of his former "missus'
and reminded her of the many kind
nesses she had shown him and of tn,
many faVors bestowed and he assured
her that If ever any crown of glor,
