Last Friday evening an open air

travelling missionaries of the Church of

as Mormons. They were nLangdon two
days of this week and spent theirtim in

advocating the teaching of the Mormon

PATHETIC DEATH
AT HANNAH
The Pastor of Presbyterian Church
Dies Friday Night Suddenly
Blood Vessel Bursts.

Without warning and after retiring
apparently in good health, Rev. w.
Tanner Hughes, for the past two years
pastor of the Presbyterian church at
Hannah, died suddenly Friday evening
at eleven o'clock. A hemorrhage of the
lungs is supposed to have been the
cause of death. A particularly sad flea
ture in connection withMr. Hughes sud-
den demise is the fact that on Sunday
he was to preach his farewell sermon in
the Hannah church, having been called
to pastorate at Stockton, Cal. He was
q man of about fifty years of age and
leaves his wife to mourn bis loss. The
only other relative in this section is a
brother, Rev. Mr. Hughes, who is pastor
Of the Presb byterian church ut Red Lake
Falls Mimi, Mr.. Hughes has been
pastor in II annah the past two years
coming to that plce from the state Of
Vermont, Wales being his birth plac6.'
Death was entirely unexpected and
followed day and evening in which
Mr.. Hughes had been active. During
the evening before retiring he walked
arould the town of Hannah and met
number of friends. He seemed to be
in particularly good spirits. About
eleven o'clock shortly after they had
retired his wife heard peculiar sound
and tried to arouse him but was un-
successful She summoned aid but in
the meantime her husband passed
away. Mr.. Hughes was man of en-
gaging personality and during his resi-
dence in Hannah made host of friends.
The funeral. which was held on Sun
day afternoon at half past two o'clock
$was conducted by Rev. f. j. Hibbard of
this city, the choir going from here to
assist in the musical part of the sad SER
vice The funeral took place the day on
which he had planned to preach his
farewell sermon to the Hannah congre-
gati.n before leaving this week for Cali
fornia The remains were inferred in
the cemetery at Hannah and it is under
stood that Mrs. Hughes may finally de-
eide to return to the former home of her
self and husband in the old country.

LAYING OF
CORNER STONE
An Important Step in Langdon's
Growth Takes Place To-Day
!, -, at School House

Every Langdon citizen should make
1t point to attend the corner stone lay
ing exercises of the new Langdon school
hNlsding which take place this afternoon
promptly at two o'clock. Owing to de.
tails. of arrangements not being per-,
fected until the past couple of days, it
has been impossible to give this import
ant event the publicity it otherwise
would have. The address of the o.
cassion will be made by Dr.. Walters,
one of Fargo's most talented public
speakers. The city authorities, the
school board and the children of the
schools will all take part in this event,
which marks one of the most important
steps that the people of Langdon have
undertaken in the annals Of the history
of our schools. Do your share tomake
the exercises duly impressive by being
in attendance.
An historical paper on Langdon's edu-
cational growth and progress during a
period of twenty three years, from 1888
to the present time, is feature on the
program of this afternoons exercises at
the laying of the corner stone of the new
school building. The paper was read by
Miss LaBelle Mahon and will be given
space in these columns next week.
