PERSONAL NOTES.

Mrs. R. d. Shepherd left on Tuesday
for Washington City, to make ready fol
occupancy the handsome new home that
Mr.. Shepherd recently bought on Bit
more street in that place. Her departure
is very sincerely regretted by wide cir
Gle of friends, who realize that it is real
loss TO this community. Mrs. Shepherd
since her residence in Shepherdstown
has proven herself to be most Charm
ing woman-generous, hospitable, kind
hearted and public-spirited, and her deep
interest in our local life and affairs has
been of the most helpful and inspiring
character She has always been ready
to lead in movements for the general
good, and her private deeds of generosi-
ty and charity are known only to the re-
cording angel. She will be genuinely
missed here, and we can assure her that
she goes with the sincerest good wishes
of Our people. And while we hope that
she may find her new home all that she
expects and deserves, we trust that she
may not lose her interest in Shepherds
town and its people. Mr.. Shepherd will
remain here couple of weeks yet, when
he will join Mrs. Shepherd in Washing
