Boycott Water Company.

When the New Egypt Water y Compan
issued circular outlining certain rules
for patrons to follow in the use of water,
some months ago, trouble began and a
number had the water connections for
their homes and places of business cut off
Then began the digging of artesian wells.
First, the ice plant dug its own we'll and
this tapped the stream of the water COM
pany's supply, but did not effect it
materially. Now the creamery is having
well dug and NJ. E. Lamb. large
property owner, is having a well driven
within few feet of the town well.
Many persons believe that this will
seriously damage the flow of the town
supply, and as many others are talking of
driving their own wells, people are won
dering where the thing will stop.
The above leads to the inquiry of what
is the status of the Mount Holly water just
| now When was the last test made
| What did 1t show? What has become OF
the movement that was talked about to
compel certain action on the part of the
water company? What has become Of
the proposition of Col George Pfeiffer tc
install artesian wells at no expense to the
company unless he does not secure gooo
water2 There are a number of othel
queries which might be made, but the
above are sufficient for the present.

Minute adopted by the Board of Directors of
the Farmers Trust Company at a meeting held
Wednesday, June S, 1912.
shadow is over us TODAY Eckard p Rrdd
member of our Board of Directors has been
removed by death and his chair is vacant On
Saturday evening, June 1, 1919, without, appar-
entity, a moments warning, he was cut down in
the prime of life.
Mr.. Budd was a native of Burlington COUNTY
being born in Medford in November, 1861
Coming to Mount Holly with his parents the
following year he spent his life in our midst
with the exception ofthe few years that he was
acquiring an education at institutions out of
the town. Taking up the practice of law he
was admitted to the bar III 1886 and he at once
took position among the practitioners of that
profession, that gave him prominence that was
not confined to this county alone but extended
to the National and State courts. The official
lie OF Eckard P. Budd in the Farmers Trust
company was short. He was elected a director
Janusry 9, 1912 and was made Solicitor the same
day. He took a very active part in the transac-
tons changing the bank to Trust Company and
MS ADVICE was found to be very valuable. He
was OF happy disposition and was always
ready with bright word or cheerful smile to
dispel any clouds which might be towering
around Recent events have shown that this
trait was one worthy of more than passing re-
marx, Tor 1t has now been disclosed that Mr.
Budd suffered in secret more than any one had
an idea Of. He was at the Board meeting the
Wednesday prior to his death and from his &C
tons and demeanor there was no thought that
his end was so near, yet on leaving the banking
house and going to his office he was suffering
TO such an extent to cause alarm and have
medical advice taken. The officers and direc-
tors OF the Farmers Trust Company deeply re-
greet the sudden removal of one who was des
tined to be an important factor in the future of
the Company, one who was Just in the prime of
life and who had bright and happy future be-
fore him. We extend to the bereaved family
our sincere sympathy in their hour OF sorrow.

Committed Suicide.

Wilmer l. Burning, contractor living
near Cross Roads, ended his life YESTERDAY
morning. He had been suffering will
stomach trouble for long time and OF
Sunday evening he said he did not think
he would go to bed but would lie down on
a lounge. His wife retired and on arising
she did not see her husband, but that did
not signify much as he was very early
riser and frequently had done work be.
fore breakfast was ready.
As the time wore on and Mr.. Burning
did not appear his wife became anxious
and went out to his carpenter shop In the
rear of the lot. She found him lifeless,
hanging In the room on the top floor of
the shop. He had evidently been dead
some time.
Mr.. Burning was a very busy man. He
had large contracts in different parts of
the county. His work seemed to push
him and the fact that his health was such
as to prevent him from giving as much
active attention to his contracts as he
would like worried him.
He leaves wife and several children,
some of them being grown up and married.

Our genial doctor. l.. T.. Hill. was taken to the hospital asst evening a very sick man. having suffered three paralytic strokes, one Monday. tho other two yesterday.
 At six o'clock Dr. Mustard was called in. for the doctor was very i'll and it was decided that the patient he taken to the hospital, and abou eight o'clock he was taken to Holy Cross Hospital and put to bed. Dur ing the night he was more or less unconscious. and small hopes are held out for his recovery.
 The three Nome physicians are do- ing all in their power to bring their patient through, and if medical skill has the power to combat the disease now afficting Dr. Hill. he will re- cover.
 No person is allowed to see the patient. but as the doctor is one oi the most popular men in Nome. hav- ing a host of friends amongst al classes irrespective of politics oi crceds. perhaps the mental though eXerted combined with the skill oi our doctors will pull him through we trust such will prove to be tn, case.
