The death of DIR. Thomas A. Hitch,
which occurred suddenly at his home
in Lincoln on Saturday last, brings
sorrow to the heart of the writer,
who was his schoolmate in years of
lon gago. How often when we met,
were the scenes of our early child
hood and school days gone over,
which brought wildly to our minds
the many things which transpired
during our attendance as pupils at
the old brick academy located at
Georgetown. Only two or three OF the
many boys and girls who were schol-
ars at that time are left. In few
more year none will be left to ans
wer the roll call when called upon.
To the family of the deceased the
writer sends his deepest sympathy.
