OBITUARY.

The funeral of Mr.. Arthur Devlin at
Saint James Church last week stirred
memories and evoked kind thoughts
from his many friends who esteemed
him for his genial personality when he
lived among them twenty years ago.
Mr.. Devlin was born in Bristol, Ke-
nosha county, April IL, 1868. His par
ents, Peter and Mary Devlin, were pio-
neer residents in 1850. He received most
of his education in the schools of his
native place and he made use Of every
opportunity that would fit him to be-
come useful member of society. He
was an efficient teacher in Kenosha
county for number of years. He was
energetic and generous in helping on
every good work and active in promot-
ing literary and temperance societies.
In 1898 when the Woodwork Cream
cry was opened, Mr.. Devlin became the
director and continued in the work for
eight years. His characteristic energy
and industry led homework and conse-
quent break in health so that in 1898
he retired from the creamery business.
After a year s rest which restored his
health, he entered upon the mercantile
business and for number of years
held responsible position in the Min
nesota Construction Company and later
in the Oklahoma Construction Company.
Seven years ago he opened a store in
Kansas City which he conducted until a
few weeks ago when failing health fore
ed him to cease work.
After a rapid decline of six weeks,
but an acute illness of only one day, he
died Of uraemic poisoning August 20
in Saint Mary s Hospital, Kansas City,
Missouri, fortified by the last sacra-
ments of the church. The remains ac-
companied by relatives were brought to
Kenosha and the funeral held at St.
James church Solemn Requiem Mass
was sung by Mr. Devlin s brother, the
Right Reverend Edward H. Devlin.
The remains were laid at rest in the
family plot in ST. James Cemetery.

fruit and alfalfa growing. From this
place we go out to Naches, a small
town which is at the end of railroad
! built up the valley to accommodate the
fruit growers. Here large quantities of
fruit is packed at a packing house as
no fruit raiser ships his own, but all
fruit passes through the packing house
and is graded, wrapped and packed. At
Naches we were very pleasantly enter
tanned by Mr.. and Mrs. Fred Penny,
formerly of Salem, Wis. Mr.. Penny

years and has been active in helping to
| develop the various industries of this
! fertile valley. On our return to North
Yakima we were part of an automobile
bus load Of thirty people in a car cal
culated to seat twenty-four The car
was stopped three times to be repaired
during the trip but as we had ample
time after reaching the depot we felt
we ought to be thankful it was as well
with us as it was. Another ride Of
eight hours and we were in Spokane, the
