In MemoPlam

In sad, but loving, remembrance
of our dear SON, Elva g. Waller, VINO
departed this life one year ago
yesterday, May %, 1912.
One sad and lonely year has passed
Since our dear son breathed his
last;
Oh, how we miss the voice we loved
so well,
Only a mothers heart can tell. &.
Gone in the best of his days,
Blighted IN manhood's bloom
Gone from the hearts that loved
To sleep in the silent tomb.
How sadly we have counted the
hours
That measured one sorrowful
year,
Since they laid him meath a mantle
Of flowers,
Our boy we loved so dear.
IT'S hard to part with those we
love,
Though parting days must come,
But let us hope to meet again,
For this is not our home.
By the Family.

South River, Jan. 23.-South
River was blocked near the draw
bridge this morning by a sunhen
barge owned by the Atlantic Dredg-
ing Company, which became loose
from it's moorings. The boat was
fastened at the dock of the Sayre
and Fisher Company at ~Sayreville
last night, having been brought
there by the Androvette Towing
Company to be stored for the winter.
About $50 this morning the ris-
ing tide caused it's fastenings to be-
come %loosened, and it tossed back
ward and forward in the river. The
schooner Meade owned by Hans
Nelson, of S~ayreville, was jammed,
also the Paul, belonging to the
Sayre and Fisher Company. Both
schooDers were damaged.
The main beam of the barge was
split and it began to drift out to-
ward the bridge, at the same time
gradually sinking. 1t finally sank
close to the draw of the bridge,
blocking transportation over the
river at that point. The boat was
empty and NO II was on board.
