Isaac 7. Taylor.

Mr.. Isaac T. Taylor, father OF
former County Commissioner Isaac
o. Taylor, died at the home of his
daughter, Mrs. Howard Bennett, near
fredericksburg, Wednesday, aftel a
lingering illness, aged nearly IS
years. He had been in poor health
for the past six months, and had
failed so rapidly that his death was
not a surprise. Mr.. Taylor leaves
eight children, four sons, Messrs. Lev
in E., of Preston; John NJ, of ELL
wood; Thomas j., of East New Mar
ket, and Isaac O., of Hurlock, and
four daughters, Mrs. Frank Milligan,
of near Vienna; Mrs. Walter Brins-
field, of Philadelphia; Mrs. Howard
Bennett, of near fredericksburg, and
MRS. Maude Brinsneld, of East New
Market.
The funeral services were held on
Friday, at Washington Methodist
Episcopal Church, Hurlock, with in
terment in the cemetery at Brook
view.
Mr.. Taylor was a strong party man
and could always be depended upon
to render loyal support to the nomi-
nees of his party. He was the last
surviving member of family of five,
who represented the third generation
of these brothers, who came to this
country from England in 1852. Those
who knew him always recognized
his sterling honesty and integrity,
and the uprightness of his life rep
resents the highest standard of
Christian character.

Turning Partidges Loose.

The Dorchester County Game and
Fish Protective Association will turn
out in short time fifty dozen Bob
White quail, which they have recent
ly received. 1t will be necessary to
turn these birds out at once, as they
will not live cooped up in the boxes
in which they are shipped. The local
Game Association has been fortunate
in securing rabbits and birds to turn
loose for stocking purposes, as most
Of the Associations not only in Mary
land, but all over the country, have
been unable to get any birds at all.
The turning loose of number of
rabbits last week and of 500 part
ridges this week should assist very
materially in keeping up the game
supply of the county, in fact, from
the reports received from the differ
ent counties of the State Dorchester
had more game during the past sea-
son than any other county. The game
laws that have been passed through
the recommendations of the sports
men comprising the Association have
been of great help to the farmers in
many sections in enabling them to
keep help to get their wheat seeded
and their corn crops husked and
housed, as in the past it has fire.
quently happened that after the cool
er weather came it was impossible to
get help, as many persons, employed
in this class of work, would should
er their guns and depend upon squir-
reling to keep them going. Inciden-
tally, too, it frequently happened that
cartridges and rabbits were killed in
| large numbers before the season was
out by such persons as did not hest
| tate to violate the game laws.

GOLDSB0ROUCH TO
RETURN TO CAMBRIDGE
Will Reopen Home on High Street,
And Governor WIN Probably Re-
sumo Law Practice.

Governor Goldsborough and his
family have spent their last Sunday
in Government House at Annapolis.
Immediately after the inauguration
of Governor-elect Harrington We'd
nesday the present Governor and his
family will board one of the State
steamers and return to their home
at the foot of High street, which has
been closed for four years.
1t is understood that Governor
Goldsborough expects to spend his
first few days out of office in atten-
ton to his private business. He then
probably will resume his work as a
member of the law firm of Goldsbor7
ough & Fletcher. Whether the Gov
ernor intends to continue in the ac-
tive practice of law is not known. 1t
has been reported that he has rece1v-
ed several excellent offers to make
business connections. 1t is probable
that the outcome of his campaign
for Senator will determine his course
to some extent. While his campaign
is on he probably will not make
business connection, and if nominal
ed it is likely that he will devote
himself to the law; if he is not, it is
possible that he will take up finan-
cial work.

OPPOSE MARRIAGE
LAW in ELKTON
Residents Hold Meeting to Work For
Revision of Present Marriage Law.

Elkton, Md, January "a num-
Der of residents of this town who
are opposed to the present marriage
laws in this State, principally be-
cause it has made a Gretna Green
out of Elkton, held meeting here
last night and discussed plans upon
which to work for its revision. A
bill toward this end probably will be
presented in the Maryland Legisla-
ture. During the past year there
were 2,S41 marriage licenses issued
at the office of the Clerk of the Court
here. Of this number at least $500
were out-of-the-county couples. On
the other hand, there are many per-
sons in Elkton who are opposed to
having any change made in the mar
riage laws, some from monetary rea-
sons and others who hold that there
should be no obstacles placed in the
way of marriages.
