OBITUARY
Rev. Henry B. Martin, D: D.

News has been received of the death
at Chestertown, Md, of the Rev.
Henry b. Martin, D. D., former rector
of Chester Parish. Dr. Martin, was
formerly one of the Rector's of Trinity
Parish, Wilmington, DEL, from 1881 to
1886, and was the only surviving ex-
rector of that parish. He was 80 years
old. His successor at Trinity, Whining
ton, was the Rev. H. Ashton Henry,
who died in Florida, on March 4th, 1920.
During DR.. Martins rectorship in
Trinity, Wilmington. two events of i'm
portance occurred in the history of the
parish. The first was the removal of
the church from Fifth and King streets
to Delaware Avenue and Adams St.,
the present site; and the second was
the appointment of regular vicar in
charge of Old Swedes Church, where
services have been regularly conducted
from that time to this. Dr. Martins
ministration left many permanent
marks of his devotion and fidelity, and
his name has always been held in high
esteem in this parish. He removed to
the Diocese of Easton in 1886, and was
there for the remainder of his life, ex-
cept from 1894-19OO. when he was To-
Gated in Philadelphia. DR.. Martin, be-
sides holding the degree of Doctor of
Divinity, was Doctor of Medicine.
DR.. Martin oficiated in St. Anne's
Middletown, in recent years, and was
a relative of Mr.. ]. G. Bragdon, Junior
Warden of st. Anne's Parish.

Bohemia Bridge Collapsed

A section of the Bohemia Bridge,
near Chesapeake City. on the Maryland
State Highway, 72O feet long, fell in
the river at noon Thursday. A heavily
laden truck had passed over the bridge
but ten minutes before it fell. This
bridge which was 1885 feet long was
built in 1892. but it had been very poor
ly cared for during that time and had
been unsafe for travel for the past ten
years, having been patched several
times after smaller sections had fallen.
Plans have been made by the State
Highway Commission for the building
of concrete bridge to take the place
of the wooden structure for the past
three years, but the construction has
been put off on account of the high
price for the work. From the present
appearance of the old bridge, a new
one will now become necessary. Traffic
over the Maryland Highway will be de-
toured through Middletown.

Conference in Session

Rev. Van P. Northrnp, pastor of
Bethesda M. E. Church, is at Crisfield,
Md, this week attending the SD an
nual session of the Wilmington Metho-
dist Episcopal Conference. The con-
ference session convened Wednesday
morning with Bishop William F., Nc
Dowell presiding. There will be d
schedule continuing for seven days,
closing with the reading of appoint
ments on Monday morning, April a..
Bishop William Frazier Mcdowell will
preside. Rev. Dr. R. K. Stephenson,
who will leave Milford, is slated for
Silverbrook, Wilmington. Despite this
optimistic impression, the situation
down through the State becomes inter-
esting because of the retirement of the
Rev. S. N. Pilchard, of Georgetown,
from the pastorate and the active min
istry. Rev. G. W. Hastings, it is also
stated, will retire from the ministry on
account of poor health. The Confer
ence host will be Rev. J. l.. johnson,
pastor of Emmanuel M. E. Church,
Crlsfeid. Special arrangements for the
care and comfort of the guests through.
out the week have been made.

FINE EASTER OCCASION

Last Sundays Easter exercises in St
Anne's Church were memorable sue
cess from the early morning services
with communion at o'clock, to those
that closed the day in the evening.
The altar was handsomely adorned
with lovely Gala lilies, gift from Miss
A. T. Spruance, of Odessa. Upon the
front of the fine brass eagle-sur-
mounted lecturn-a gift of Gen. R. M.
Blatchford, U. S. A., in memory of his
wife-was hung a large and beautiful!
spray of pink and white peas, a yearly
offering of the Generals.
A fine replica of the original Hymn
Board. presented by Mrs. Elizabeth
Green in honor of her daughter, Mrs.
Natalie Blatchford, was placed on the
left side of the Church, near the organ,
last Saturday, and will prove great
convenience for those seated on that
side.
The morning congregation was one of
the largest ever seen in the Church on
Easter morn, and heard with interest
the very excellent sermon spoken to the
theme of Immortality from l Cor. Is,
verse 10 by the rector, Rev. P. L..
Donaghay, IF in this life only we have
hope in Christ, we are of all men most
miserable" Of the communicates
present 80 per cent. received the COM
munion.
The music was in harmonious keeping
with the beautiful day and, the holy oc-
casion. An Easter anthem ''He Is
Risen," was finely sung by Mesdames.
Browne, Beaston and Pleasanton and
Mr.. Fred Brady, together with the aug
mented choir, Mrs. Bragdon giving at
the organ fine Illustration of instru-
mentation as accompanist. Then a Te
Deum in E fiat by Stults was also well
rendered.
In the evening, the rector gave to q
good audience another fine sermon.
"Christ's Resurrection-a pledge of
Ours" from Acts 1868. Mesdames
Browne and Pleasanton and Mr.. Fred
Brady sang beautiful solos, and the
large choir assisting.
The Rector also made an address to
the Sunday School children whose Mis-
sionary Mite Box Offerings amounted
to $50. 40-a big advance over last year.
This sum reflects high credit on the in
dustrious young workers in that holy
cause.
Mr.. and Mrs. Richard Rodney, of
New Castle; Mrs. Sites, of Kirkwood,
Mo-; Mr.. and Mrs. Horatio Willis, of
Landsdowne, Pa, and Mr.. and Mrs.
Roger Williams, of Ga!ena, Md, were
among the friends from distance.

FRUIT WAS DAMAGED
Kent and Sussex Growers We're
Hit the Hardest
THE LOSS WILL BE ENORMOUS

The damage done to the fruit crops
in Delaware by the cold wave which
sxept the eastern section of the coun-
try Monday and Tuesday nights, is
estimated between $1,500,OO and
5000, 900. While the esti.r ates differ
as to the money value, all growers
agree that the fruit crop is almost de.
stroyed.
Orchards near Dover and Wyoming,
in Kent county, were the hardest hit
Reports from there declare that the
trees were almost all damaged by the
frost In Sussex county, around Bridge
vile, the apple and peach trees were
about ninety per cent damaged. -
According to DR.. G. A. AcCue, chief
of the experimental station at the Uni
yersitv of Delaware, the fruit crop in
Delaware this year was estimated to be
worth So, 900, 900. He also said that
the growers had made efforts to make
this years apple crop the largest in the
history of the Diamond State. He said
further that an accurate estimate could
not be made as yet.
A 6O-degree fall in temperature mark
ed the advent of the cold snap in Della
ware, the thermometer dropping to 20
degrees.
Strawberries in some sections down
State were reported killed, in other
sections the plants were reported not
far enough advanced for the frost to
reach them. Garden truck generally
was in this stage Of its growth. In a
few places peas and beans were re-
ported up and killed by the frost.
In Sussex and Kent counties the
growers consider the peach and apple
their money crop, declared Coulter
NJ essick, of Bridgeville, and these haye
been about 80 per cent damaged. He
said unless first estimates were too far
wrong, the year would be total loss.

Preventative Medicine

The tendency of medical science is
toward preventative measures. 1t is
easier and better to prevent than to
cure. Pneumonia, one of the most
dangerous diseases that medical men
have to contend with, often follows
cold or attack of the grip. The cold
prepares the system for the reception
and development Of the pneumonia
germ. The longer the cold hangs on,
the greater the danger. Take Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy as soon as the
first indication Of cold appears so as
to get rid of it with the least possible
delay. It is folly to risk an attack of
pneumonia when this remedy may be
obtained for trihe.
