 It was not a large congregation that greeted Rev. w. s. MacIntyre, who spoke in the church last Sunday, as the weather was of the moist va- riety so common nowadays. His ad- dress was confined to observance of the Lords day, a timely and import ant topic. In graphic terms he de- scribed the efforts that have been made and predicted others to be made to secure legislation favorable to a wide-open Sabbath day. At the same time he told of how he had been instrumental in blocking such legis- lation. What is the answer? The funeral of Adolph Korper was held from his late home in this vil- lage at 1.3O o'clock last Friday after noon and was largely attended. Rev. B. W. Darrow preached the funeral sermon, paying a fitting and noble tribute to his memory. Quite few, aside from relatives, were present from out of town, among whom we note Jos. M. Morrow of Hartford, Judge R. H. Fisk, c. F. Beckwith, R. M. Fisk and F. G. Sanford from Stafford Springs, Messrs. Bill, Rem ington and Branch of Willimantic.
