life at her home in Cambridge last

great grandchild survive her. She
was true christian woman, beloved
by her'family and friends and respect
ed by all who knew her. - -
Mrs. Hallin came to Cambridge with
her husband, the late o. A. Hallin
who died two years ago, in 1869, and

A Democrats Thanksgiving.

Carl cSchurZ was one of the nOblest
and most picturesque Of Americans.
He came to the United States at a
year spiritually akin to this. Men
were eagerly struggling for the truth
of democracy and reality of liberty.
1t was stirring time.
Europe was going through great
revolution and it would have nothing
to do with Schurz's radicalism. A
few years after the young hero ar
rived in America he was sent by Mis-
souri, to the United States senate. He
left in his "reminiscences" picture
of his feelings as he took his position
at Washington, a picture which re-
tains it's thrill today. Said he:
I wildly remember the feeling
which almost oppressed me as I first
sat down in my chair in the senate
chamber. Now I had actually reach
ed the most exalted public position to
which my boldest dreams of ambition
had hardly dare to aspire.
1 was still young man, just 40.
Little more than sixteen years had
elapsed since I landed on these shores,
homeless waif saved from the wreck
of revolutionary movement in Europe.
Then I was EMBODIED in the generous
hospitality Of the American people
opening to me as freely as to it's own
children, the great opportunities of the
new world. And here I was now a
member Of the highest Iaw-making
body Of the greatest Of republics.>
Should I ever be able to repay my
debt of gratitude to this country and
to justify the honors that had been
heaped upon me? To accomplish this
my conception Of duty could not be
pitched too high. I recorded VOW in
my heart that would at least honor
ably endeavor to fulfill that duty; that
I would conscientiously adhere to the
principle salus populi supreme lex;
that would never be a ,sycophant of
power nor a fatterer of the multi
tude; that if need be I would stand
up alone for my conviction of truth
and right, and that there would be no
personal sacrifice too great for my
devotion to the republic.-Chicago
Herald.
