IS 200 YEARS OLD
Member Of John Brown Raiding Party
Taught in Connecticut lnsti-
tuition.

The controversy over the location of
the new school building for the Long
Hill school district, has brought to
light some interesting history in con-
nection with the building of the East
Long Hill district, which will be aban-
doned as soon as the new builG.ng is
erected. 1t is probable that this press
ent building is one of the oldest school
houses in the state still in use. Old
residents Of the district claim that it
dates back nearly 200 years, and that
it is still used shows with what are
the building was erected. The build
ing is located on a hill and is built of
stone, a rather unusual feature. 1t is
interesting to recall, in connection with
the school, that John E. Cooke, one of
the members of John Browns raiding
party, and who was later hanged with
him, once taught in this school. He
was born in Killingworth, and as a
young man came to MiddletOwn to
teach school. Later on, he went West
and became acquainted with the IA
nous liberatOr. Lyman NJ. Baldwin,
one of the well-known residents of the
district, says he has frequently heard
his grandfather speak of attending the
old stone schoolhouse, and often relat-
ed a prank which some of his boy COM
panions played there one night. The
boys of the neighbOrhood had been in
the habit of gathering in the school
house at night to play cards, their only

ALLEN CHAPEL.

by DVlld IL NhOoOOs
Last Sunday Rev. Sheafe again de-
livered two of his inimitable sermon
to a large congregation both morning
and evening. In the evening his SER
mon, which was very interesting and
instructive, was addressed to the
ladies organizations of the Church. By
request he sang solos at both sermons.
Services were largely attended during
the week. There we're seven addi-
lions. Members and friends regret to
see Rev. Sheafe leave; he is accom-
panied by his talented wife who is an
accomplished pianist. Prof. French
will address the Senior Endeavor at
600 p. m. Miss Tooley will sing.
Everybody invited. Father and son
week will be observed February 5 to
Sunday, February IL. A special SER
mon will be preached to Fathers and
Sons on the Sunday morning; Sunday

are pretty well organized into some
club or auxiliary and ire doing TX
cellent charitable and social work and
are really becoming acquainted with
n another and with the minister.

a Church home to you. Lovers of

Miles Nervine, and I began to improve
before I had finished the first bottle
until I was entirely cured"
MRS. JOSEPH SNYDER,
262 Hudson St, Tifin, Ohio.
Many remedies are recommended
for diseases OF the ervou system
that fail to produce results because
they do not reach the seat OF the
trouble. DR.. Miles Nervine has
proven its value in such cases so
many times that it is unnecessary
to make claims for it. You can
prove its merits for yourself by
getting a bottle OF your druggist,
who will return the price if you
receive no benefit. >
