Death OF homaS n. Non0at.
Dodgeville Sun Republic, Mar. s.;
Thomas Henry Kendall was born in
the town of Mineral Point on April 20,
1862, where he grew to manhood and
received his education in the common
schools of that locality. He was united
in marriage to Harriet Eliza Wood
bury on the Goth day of October, 1876.
For twenty five years they lived on
their farm in the town of DOdgeville,
moving from there into the city Of
Dodgeville and later, about 10 years ago,
to Madison. In Madison Mr.. Kendall
was employed as baggage man for the
Chicago & Northwestern Ry., which
position he held until few months
previous to his death. He was a
familiar figure about the depot and be-
came widely known and very much be-
loved by the travelling public. On &C
count Of overwork and failing health
he gave up his position a few months
ago and came to spend a while with
his daughter Mrs. Peterson. at whose
home he died Monday, February 20.

few streets it stopped before a big
building. Hawkes. got out, tcld the
ca bman where to take Peg. paid him
and. with some final admonitions to
Peg. disappeared through the swing
doors of the town hall.
The cabman took the wondering Peg
along until he drove up to very hand
some EliZabethan house. There he
stopped. Peg looked at the name on
the gateposts and then at the name ON
the card Mr.. Hawkes. had given her.
They were the same. Once more she
gathered up her belongings and her
dog and passed in through the gate
posts and wandered up the long drive
On a tour Of inspection. She walked
until she came to some open windows.
The main entrance hall of the house
seemed to be hidden away somewhere
amid the tall old trees.
Peg made straight for the open win
dowS and walked into the most won
derful looking room she had ever seen.
Everything in it was old and massive.
1t bespoke centuries gone by in every
detail Peg held her breath as she
looked around her FIXTURES and
tapestries stared at her from the walls.
Beautiful old vases were arranged in
cabinets. The carpet was deep and
soft and stifled all sound Peg almost
gave an ejaculation Of surprise at the
wonders Of the room, when she sud-
denly became conscious that she was
not alone in the room. that others were
there and that they were talking.
She looked in the direction the
sounds came from and saw, to her as
constituent. man with woman in
his arms. He was speaking to her in
a most ardent manner. They were
partially concealed by some statuary.
Peg concluded at once that she had
intruded on some marital scene at
which she was not desired. so she in
stantly sat down with her back to
them.
She tried not to listen. but some of
the words came distinctly to her. Just
as she was becoming very uncomforta-
BILE and had half made up her mind to
leave the room and find somewhere
else to wait she suddenly heard herself
addressed and in no uncertain tone of
voice. There were indignation, sur
prise and anger in Ethers question::
"How long have you been here?"
Peg turned around and saw strik-
ingly handsome, beautifully dressed
young lady glaring down at her. Her
manner was naughty in the extreme.
Peg felt most unhappy as she looked
at her and did not answer immedi-
ately.
