SWALLOWED A PIN-On Mon
day as Anna Foreacres, daughter
of Joseph S. Foreakers, was re
turning home from school, she was
telling her companions about a
relative who swallowed a pin that
killed her. Immediately after that
she unaccountably swallowed a pin
lherself that she had in her mouth
She was of course frightened, as
were her parents on her arrival
home, at the possible results. DR.
T. G. Moore of this town was con-
suited and he administered pow
der to irritate the trachea and
make her cough, which had the
desired effect, throwing it out the
next morning after a paraxysm of
coughing, which must have been
severe, the pin which was straight
when swallowed coming forth very
much bent.

DEATH OF MRS. ANNIE E.
CULLEN Mrs. Quillen, wife of
Armwell L. Quillen, died at his
residence at Duck Creek on Friday
last at the age Of 81 years. She
was the daughter of the late JOS
eph Disch and married Mr.. Quillen
thirty years ago. AS a school girl
and a young lady she was known
as person of great amiability, a
happy temperament that charac-
terized her whole life and made
the home of the united couple a
singularly happy one. She was a
quiet but ardent member of the NJ.
E. Church, uniting with it when
she was fifteen year old. She was
never a robust woman and for
some years it was evident to
friends that consumption was
making slow but sure claim upon
her delicate frame For the past
two or three months the decline
was more rapid and the final sum
mons did not come unexpected.
Her remains were attended to
Glenwood cemetery on Monday af-
ternoon by a very large number of
relatives and friends, Revs. Quigg,
Gordon, and Haines, taking part
in the funeral services. Mr.. Quill
len, who is left with a desolate
home has the warmest sympathy
of his friends.
