OBITUARY.
Frank r. Frefd.

Frank T. Field, one of the leading citizens of Dayville, died Friday night at his home in that place. Last week Mir. Field underwent an oper- ation that 1t was hoped might be the means of saving his life though it was realized that his condition was ex- ceeding1y critical. He rested some what for two days after the opera tion. but suddenly grew worse, the end coming quite suddenly.
 MT. Field was 51 years of age. He was born in Dayvil1e, the son of William and Julia Thomas Field and spent his life in the town. He was engaged in business in Dayville and active in its social life. Mir. Field served one term as a member of the town school committee, put aside from this service he had not held public of- flee. though he was a we'll known member of the republican party. He was member of the Mems club oi the Danvi1le Congregational church. June g.. 1892, he married Miss Ids Joslin, who survives him. He also leaves three children-Harold, Nitric and Donald, all at home, and his
 mother, also resident in DayvilIe.

MEMORIAL SUNDAY OBSERVED.
Services Held at payville and South
 kslIingIy Yesterday.

The blue uniforms of the boys of '6146 were conspicuous Sunday aft ernoon in the Memorial services held at Dayville and South Killingly. There were not so many of them, but still they were quite numerous, each and everyone a more significant liv- ing memorial of devotion to flag and country than when their ranks had not been 50 sadly thinned and the lesson of patriotism they had taught had not been haI1owed by the passinR yeaxs. This year the dimin- ishing Grand Army of the Republic to all who think of the trend of the times seemed more wonderful and impressive than ever before and those who joined with them in paying tri- b1lte to the comrades in arms who have gone beyond seemed ifnbued with the firm purpose and resolve to nee to 1t that as each year brings ite Memorial day the observance shall be reiigipusIg Kept even through the years when the last of those who fought for an asbsoEut1y free and united country have long since pass cd away.

was found at Miss Reeds where
ghosts, jack-o-lanterns and spooks
of ali descriptions prevailed. The
third course was attractively serv-

cats, witches and ghosts prowled
continually. And the fourth
course was awaiting the Jolly

A GOING HOME.

After an illness of about seven
months, Mr. II L Brown we n
home at $50 p. IN. Oct. rs, 1916.
He was 6S years, months and 12
days old when he died. He was
born near Rienzi, Miss, and spent
the earlier part of his life in Prem
tiss county near Bonneville.
About "a years ago Brother Brown
moved with his family to Iuka,
where he has since been in the
mercantile business. Mr. Brown
was one of Iuka's best citizens and
we feel that Iuka as a whole has
sustained a great loss in the going
of this great man. Earth is rich
er because he lived in it and heav-
en- is dearer because he has gone
to the mansion prepared by his
Savior. Although he had never
identified himself with any church,
yet he had a living hope in God,
and did as much or more than any
other. in the erection of the new
Baptist church at this place.
He truly served his day and
generation we'll. He leaves a
devoted wife, two tender loving
brother with a large cir
Gle of friends TO mourn his going.
Dear friends we cannot and would
not bring him back but we can so
to him. In loving memory,
