Charlestown, N. H. last Friday, we're
brought here for burial Monday
afternoon. There was a short ser

the interment in the OXbow Burylng
ground, where lies the remains OF
her kindred. Nancy Clark was born

Among the delegates chosen TO
represent the Congregational Church
at Grafton-Orange Association at
Thetford Hill were Rev. Henry >
Ives, Mrs Ives, Mrs Charles Taggart
and Mrs Wilmar Perkins, and for
tunate indeed were they in accept
inc the invitation which gave them
"a most cordial invitation to meet
of one of the most delightful spots
in New England" Who ever wrote
that Invitation was in this instance
a man of truthfulness and veraclt y,
for standing on the brow OF lheto
ford Hill. overlooking the valley OF
the Connecticut and gazing on the
hills and mountains of New Hamp-
shire. one might easily imagine the
thoughts which might have lifted
through the mind of Moses as ne
stood on Nebo's lonely mountain
overlooking the promised land. In
this old church with its interesting
history, its broad overhanglng' gar
levs Representative people from
towns of Grafton and Orange counties
assembled and had the opportunity
of listening to inspiring and edu-
cational messages from such men as
Rev. Roger A Dunlap and PROF.
Charles D Adams Of Hanover, as
well as pastors of the Association
At noon dinner was served IN a
pavilion which belongs to one OF the
summer schools. 1t was dinner IN
which every way represented the
hospitality and cordially Of the
ladies of Thetford Hill. Daintlly
spread on round tables which would
seat eight guests, and served by at
tractive table girls, no wonder lhose
pious people did eat and eat and yet
the food held out like the widows
oil until a hundred and thirty more,
cried enough. At four O'clock the
gathering broke up, and as the
guests departed to their homes they
no doubt carried with them pleasant
memories of Thetford Hill, and the
committee realized its wish, 1T is
hoped that the program will prove
instructive, profitable and inspiring;
instructive, profitable and inspiring"
