SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 1877
SALISBURY & CO.. IVoprietors,
Senator Morton’s last wo rds were
“I am worn out.”
If the Democracy of New York
carry the State Senate, next week, it
will*be for the first time since 1859.
The Telegraph-Messenger learns
from undoubted authority, yellow
fever lias broken out in Key \\ est.
The City Council of Denison,
Texas, pays its Mayor $1 per month,
and when he had a few letter heads
printed, the Council refused to pay
for them.
Mii. T. M. Metcalf, Minnesota’s
Commissioner of Statistics, estimates
that the wheat crop of that State this
year will reach the enormous amount
of 40,000,000 bushels, notwithstanding
the ravages of the grasshoppers.
The report of Mr. Fitch, register
in bankruptcy in New York, shows
that the assignments made in that
city during the last two years cover
liabilities to the amount of $40,000,-
000, with discoverable assets of only
$7,000,000, or 17} cents on the dollar.

The dangers from the noiseless run
ning of bicycles have been so great in
England, that the Watch Committee,
of Liverpool, recommend a law that
anybody running a velocipede with
out a bell attached to it shall be fined
$5.

The aggregate losses by fire in the
United State* ami Canada during the
month of August amounted to $8,420,-
300, which is $2,589,400 less than for
the same period in 1876. The total
losses to insurance companies foot up
$4,258,900.
A n elderly lady played a quiet joke
on the Treasurer of the Baptist For-
cign Mission ray Society. She slipped
up noiselessly and unostentatiously,
and placed in his hands a roll of
greenbacks amounting to $650. She
hurried away, declining to give her
name. The Treasurer wants to hear
from more ladies of this kind, and no
questions asked.
It savors somewhat too strongly of
the ridiculous that Cleoj>atia’s Needle,
after surviving the shocks of three
thousand years, and riding out a ter
rible storm in the Atlantic while on
its way to adorn the commercial
metropolis of the world, should be
detained for debt in an insignificant
Spanish seaport. Verily, ’tis to base
uses it has come at last.
There were sixty-one failures re
ported in New* York city during the
month of October, the largest number
of any month this year; but the lia
bilities, which are in round numbers
$8,600,000, are not so great as in some
other months. Tlienumber of failures
has increased about'thirty per cent,
over the record for the month of Sep
tember, while the aggregate liabilities
is smaller by $100,000.
Tuesday, November 6, will be a
rattling day for elections, which will
be held in New York, Pennsylvania,
Man-land, Virginia, Wisconsin, Mis
sissippi, New Jersey, Massachusetts,
Minnesota, Nebraska, Illinois and
Cenrgia. The New York, Pennsyl
vania and Wisconsin elections are the
most important, and indications point
to Democratic victories.
A case of universal importance was
recently decided by the Supreme
Court of the United States. An Ohio
man named Ulrich was ejected from
a Michigan Southern & Lake Shore
_traiu_fucj\‘-fusing to pay more than
three cents per mile, the rate fixed by
(lie law of that State. He brought
suit for damages, obtained a verdict
in the lower court, which the Ohio
Supreme Court affirmed, and now the
tribunal of last resort has again af
firmed the justice of his cause.
There was a report in Washing
ton to the effect that while Gov. Wil
liams, of Indiana, was in New York
a few days since, Mr. Tilden asked
him to appoint Mr. Hendricks Sena
tor upon the death of Senator Mor
ton. Gov. Williams had hitherto in
tended to appoint Hon. D. W. Voor-
hees, but told Mr. Tilden he would
consider his request, adding that he
•lid not think Mr. Hendricks could
l>e induced to accept. When Gov.
\\ illiams came here from New York
he conferred with his friends and
those ot Hendricks, and spedily re
turned to his former decision.
1 n answer to an inquiry whether
he desired to go to the United States
Senate, should Mr. Morton die.Gov.
Hendricks said, Wednesday: “The
future will determine. I am not, and
tlo not intend to be a candidate for
the United States Senate. Had the
Indiana Legislature been Democratic
in 1869, when my term in the Senate
expired, 1 should have been most
proud ot a re-election, but it was not,
and my retirement at that time I be
lieved to be final. I think it alto-
getliii likely that Mr. Voorliees will
be called upon to fill the Senatorial
vacancy, should ouooocu^. ,,
King Alfonso, of Spain, has ordered,
at Paris, a casket by way of a betroth
al present to bis future wife, the
Princess Mercedes. It is in lapis
lazuli, mounted on four lions’ claws
sixteen inches high and thirty square,
ornamented with garlands of golden
roses, which are miracles of delicate
workmanship. The hues of the flow
ers are all faithfully presented. The
key is a golden rose, full blown. The
interior,of the casket islapislazulistud-
ded with tiny nails, diamond headed.
The casket is intended to hold the
lovers love letters, but it goes to the
Princess in the first place with but
one note and a necklace of eight
rows of i>earls.
To Show Up Ugly Things.—The
House Committee on Naval Affairs
has decided to probe the financial
management of Mr. George Robeson.
They will show bow the money has
been squandered by giving contracts
for supplies to rings, by defaulting
pa_\ masters and building rotton ships
at fabulous prices. The committee
should be able to solve the problem
why a ship in the British navy is
maintained at $180,000 a year, while
it costs $2(5,000 to maintain an Amer
ican man-of-war; and why the cost
per man in the British navy is $383
a \eai, and in our navy not less than
$3,000. The money expended on our
navy during the last twelve or thir
teen years would, according to the
British style of management, give us
to-day 172 efficient ships and 37,800
men to man them. We have not,
however, thirty vessels which are fit
*°r active sea duty.
THE CITV OF THE DEAD.
There are more people buried up
yonder on the hill than inhabitants
in Columbus, yet our town is not yet
a half century old. Our cemetery is
very lovely. Autumn’s tints have
touched the foliage of the forest oaks
with their brown and mellowed hues,
while the green of others, emblems
of perennial 'remembrance, shine
with a subdued lustre. Every pleas
ant Sunday afternoon the enclosure
is visited by hundreds, some to com
mune with the departed, others to
enjoy the calm and beauty of nature,
others as recreation, and others still
to indulge in day dreams and recall
the past. It is no place for mourning,
for useless regrets, but rather for re
joicing. The dead sleep dreamless
on, careless alike of smiles or tears,
of brightness or sorrow. Life and its
toils are forgotten. Probably their
spirits hover over the spot where f<>rms
have mouldered, and infuse into the
breasts of those they have loved on
earth the sweet sense of comfort and
bring back cherished memories of the
long ago.
How strange events hapi*?n. Here
perhaps lie almost an entire family.
Of three brothers, two rest there. The
pair were schoolmates, played truant
in common, and even in advanced
youth and manhood, were fond of
companionship; frank-hearted and
affectionate. The third was rather as
one apart. Their union is again con
tinued. A short period only divided
their lives and death, while the other
still lingers alone. How many such
can be noted in our graveyard. There,
too, the parent meets the child,brother
with sister communes, and friend
joins hand with friend—all is tinged
with a melancholy, but it should not
Ik? connected with pain.
Oh! not by graves should tears be shed,
Nor there should cypross weave its gloom;
No! gratulatlons for the dead,
And roses for the toomb.
They stand far removed from each
other, and a gulf lies between; but
heavenly music forms a golden, starry
bridge over the abyss, and the holy
and mellodious tones whisper to the
heart the complaints and longings of
an ever-enduring love—a sweet dream
and nothing more.
A graveyard seems naturally to awe
every human heart; yet on quiet
evenings, when zephyrs whisper
gently they are wafting angels by, it
is a place of sweet repose and twilight
thought to the drear and sad, the
careleas and the free. The nursery
child feels within its portals that he
treads on hallowed ground, for hush
ed is the happy laugh and the sportive
abandon of glee. No tones of hilarity
greet the ear. Conversation is spoken
in softer strains than is wont, and
silently are the resting places of the
dead'lingered o’er. Visit the spot
alone, and there is no breast in which
there creeps not a holy reverence and
calm, a high purpose and resolve.
While the winds tenderly breathe a
requiem o’er the dreamless siumberers,
and the skies smile a blessing, even
the unbeliever’s heart sees heaven’s
gate opened wide, harmonious sound
on golden hinges turning. In the
delicious stillness of the cemetery—
all alone—not a human heart speak
ing near but present the knowledge
that groups are not far off, is evolved
the most ecstatic bliss of which the
soul of mortal is capable. Uncon
sciously one echoes the lines of Long
fellow :
I like that ancient Saxon phrase which
calls
The burial ground God’s Acre. It is just.
It consecrates each grave within it's walls.
And breathes a benison o’er the sleeping
dust.
ROSE HILL DO.VOLOU V.
Now glory to the God of Love,
AV’ho guides our wandering feet,
And leads us to that home above
Where saints and angels meet:
There we shall join the mighty host,
And swell the song of praise,
To Father, Son and Holy Ghost,
Through all our endless days.
Nov. 1876. Henry W. Hilliard.
Looking over a Methodist hymn
book in the parlor of ex-Senator J. N.
Gilmore, of Sandersville, on Sunday
last, I found the alxive doxolgy, in
the familiar hand-writing of my
friend Hilliard, on a fly leaf of the
book. I do not know that it is origi
nal, but having never seen it in print,
I copied it for your Sunday issue, by
permission of Major Gilmore, who
informed me that Mr. Hilliard wrote
it one day during the session of the
Methodist Conference in Sanders-
ville, as the guests of the family were
seated in the parlor. Whether original
or not, no doubt it will prove inter
esting matter for your religious col
umns, which department is unsur
passed in the excellence of its selec
tions by that of any Sunday paper
that I have yet seen.

A Florida Story.—A curious
story comes from Ocala, Fla., says
the Constitution, which may possibly
have some bearing on the whis
key ring frauds in St. Louis. About
two years ago a person giving his
name as George A. Raj’ settled in
Marion count}', Fla. He led a quiet
and retired life, and was at peace with
all his neighbors. One day last week
he died and his remains were interred
in the cemetery at Ocala. A few days
previous to his death, however, he
communicated to a Mr. Owens the in
formation that his real name was
Campbell, and that he was from St.
Louis. He stated furthermore that
he held a position under the United
States Government as whiskey in
spector and gauger, and that lie fled
from St. Louis and changed his name
in order that his testimony might not
be used against General Babcock
and others implicated in the whiskey
ring frauds. It is understood that
the papers left by Mr. Ray (or Mr.
Campbell) fully corroborated the
statements made to Mr. Owens.

Gov. Hartranft, of Pennsylva

issued by the grand jury of Allegheny
count}' requiring him to appear and
testify in the trial of Gen.**Pearson,
who is charged with murder in con
nection with the killing of certain
citizens of Pittsburg by the State
militia during the July riots. The
Governor, in a letter to the court, dis
avows motives of contempt toward
the court, but “denies the right of a
co-ordinate branch of the government
to compel the attendance of the exec
utive officers or investigate the man
ner in which, in their discretion,
they have performed their official
duties.” He has, however, submitted
the matter to the Supreme Court of
the State and will Ik? guided by its

A late Washington special to the
World says: The Postoffice Depart
ment is involved in a queer legal ease,
which may cause it some trouble.
Section 5480 of the postal laws proliil)-
its the circulation by mail of adver
tisements of any scheme to defraud
people, under penalty of a fine not
exceeding $500, or imprisonment for
not more than eighteen months, or
both. Several months ago an organi
zation calling itself the United States
Secret Sendee Company was formed
in Cincinnati, duly incorporated, and
the articles thereof were deposited
with the Librarian of Congress. The
Secret Service Company issued circu
lars saying that the only way to pre
vent tne spread of crime in this coun
try was for each man to become a de
tective, and offeree! upem the payment
of a certain fee 1 to create any erne of
good character a member of the com
pany, give him credentials, a baelge
and a copy of the Criminal Ga
zette for one year. Each member
of the company was to work up
all crimes committed for the rewards
offereel anel the rewards so obtained
were to be divided pro rata by the
company among its members. * Sev
eral days ago Special Agent Henry,
of the Post Office Department, arrest
ed the officers of the company, and
they were held for trial on the 15th
ult., in $2,000 each. The Post Office
Department ordered that all mail ar
riving in Cincinnati for the firm
should be detained and sent back to
the senders. T. C. Campbell, of Cin
cinnati,the lawyer of the company, ar
gued the matter before Solicitor Free
man, maintaining that when letters
are deposited in the mail they are the
property of the person to whom they
are addressed. Mr. Campbell secured
a revocation of the Post Office De
partment order, but the mail is still
detained, and a further hearing for its
release will be given tiiis week. The
officers of the Secret Service Compa
ny maintain that their business is a
legitimate one.
Why Clarilvld Wasn’t Chosen Srnalon
The President induced Gen. Gar
field last spring to withdraw from the
Senatorial race in Ohio under the be
lief that lie could be elected Speaker
of the House. There was a mistake
all around, of course; but Gen. Gar
field, referring to the subject the other
day, treated it thus:
“Well, I thought at first the Presi
dent hail no right, in reality, to inter
fere in the matter. But I concluded
to think the subject over, seeing he
had asked it, and see if there was not,
after all, a side from which it might
be all right. In the first place, I was
well enough off, perhaps, where I
was, and the new position was only
for the short, unexpired term of an
other man, and I would not get fairly
started in it, provided I was success
ful in getting it, before I would be
obliged to go through the unpleasant
process of a recanvass. In order to
accept the Senatorial election I would
be obliged to give up the old Nine
teenth district, which has stood by
me so long. But what was the great
est argument, perhaps, was the opin
ion that this being an off year, there
would probably be considerable indif
ference among the people, and that
nine chances out of ten the State will
go Democratic.”

The conductor of one of the trains
running into Charlotte, a few nights
since, found a girl about 16 years old,
clad only in a robe de nuit, crouching
on one of the ear platforms. He took
her to Charlotte, had her clothed and
provided a home for her with a prom
inent lady. It now transpires that
the girl is an heiress, a recent gradu
ate of Salem College, and had run
away from her stepfather. Unfortu
nately, for the romance of the story,
the conductor is an old married man,
and it was his wife who interested
herself especially in the girl’s behalf.

Tlie Graphic’* Telephonic Account of
the Interview with Silt tine Bull.
From the Baltimore Gazette.]
Our telephonic communication with
Sitting Bull’s camp enables us to state
what really was said at the recent hu
miliating interview between Sitting-
Bull and the United States Commis
sion :
Can’t have anything to do with
you, said his Majesty, Sitting Bull.
You’re a nation of liars; the truth
isn’t in you.
General Terry and his associates
looked indignant.
Oh, you needn’t put on airs, re
marked Sitting Bull. You’re not
aware of the depth of your own de
moralization. You’ve got used to it,
and don’t mind it. What can we ex
pect of you in the matter of honest
dealing, when you don’t deal honest
ly with yourselves ? I know all about
you.
What do you know ? asked General
Terry.

Bull, and all the chiefs responded,
how!

in to-day’s rain, leaked four millions
of dollars and ain’t finished or done

Gen. Terry—Noble savage, why
kick a man when he’s down ?
S. Bull—Cans’t thou catch leviathan
with a hook which tliou lettest down?
Cans’t thou elect an honorable Legis
lature or a Board of Aldermen ?
All—How ! how !
A Commissioner—General, let us
go home. I don’t think we can be of
any use here.
general Terry—No. ■ Let us hear

Her Mllllmuilre Families and (heir Im
mense Income.
The New York papers have been
using much space recently in the way
of boasting of the wealth and grand
eur of their city, its public growth
and probable future. One of these
says :
The people who live, work and toil
among us—those who read news
papers and watch for themselves the
progress of events—are much more
concerned touching the actual present
condition of New York,her size,trade,
shipping, wealth and commercial
importance, than they possibly can
be in any, even the best founded
speculations concerning her future
greatness. A bird in the hand is
worth two in the bush. It is not the
name or the corporate form which
gives a city its character as such, but
the tact that its inhabitants live close
ly together—in other words, that the
population is urban as distinguished
from rural.
New York contain to-day hard on
1,300,000 inhabitants. For present pur
poses Brooklyn, if not all the area
within five miles of the City Hall,
should be regarded as forming part of
New York. Brooklyn alone contains
at the present writing a population
of 550,000. This added to 1,300,000,
would give New York 1,850,000. If,
however, we take in Jersey City and
Staten Island, which clearly belong
to this agglommeration of population,
New York, viewed as a metropolis, is
the second largest city of the civilized
world, containing over 2,600,000 in
habitants. Thus: London, 3,489,-
428; New York, over 2,000,000, and
then Paris, with 1,851,792.
As New York has grown in size she
haw likewise grown in beauty, wealth,
luxury and extravagance. We doubt
if any two million people in the world
spend annually in rent,dress and pleas
ures as much ’money as is spent by the
people of this metropolis. The enor
mous accumulation of wealth at this
centre represents a very considerable
portion of the profits of the commerce
of the nation for the last twenty-five
years. On the actual amount of this
wealth to-day the total valuation on
real and personal estate for 1877—
$1,101,292,093—give but a feeble idea.
No street in the world (except pos
sibly in London) represents in the
short space of two miles and a half
anything like the enormous aggregate
of wealth represented by Fifth avenue
residents between Washington Square
and Central Park. We give hapha
zard a few names:
Mr. Rhinelander $ 3,000,000
Marshall O. Roberts 5.000,000
Moses Taylor 5,000,000
August Belmont 8,000,000
Robert L. and A. Stewart 5,000,000

Mr. Fred Stevens 10,000,000
Mr. Louis Lorillard 1,000,000
8218,000,000
Here we have some eighteen fami
lies, living near each other, who de
rive fixed yearly incomes from a cap
ital of between $240,000,000 and §250,-
000,000, the greater part of which
capital, with the exception of the
Vanderbilt fortune, is invested in New

Minor <tiir*tloii* Hint Puzzle Hie (train-
inn ria »».
\Richard Grant White in the Xew York
Times.]
I have of late received no less than
nine epistles—one of them from the
Pacific shore—asking me to decide a
dispute whether it is right to say to
morrow is Sunday or to-morrow’will
be Sunday, and I am speaking with
in hounds when 1 say that within the
the last ten years that question has
been put to me, personally or by let
ter, more than one hundred and" fifty
times, and I have lately received sev
en letters, three during’the last week,
asking whether it is “grammatical”
to say I feel had or I feel badly.
As to the former momentous inqui
ry, I might truly say I don’t know
which is right and I don’t care. It is
not worthy of five minutes’ consider
ation by any reasonable human crea
ture. Either form of expression is
perfectly intelligible, and both have
the support of good usage. As to the
latter, which, trifling as it is, does
really present a point for decision,
there seems to me no doubt that “I
feel bad” is right. I cannot believe
that any one of my querists, who, ris
ing in the morning, felt low spirited,
would say, “I feel bluely,” but “I
feel blue.” Nor would any one who
speaks English well without thinking
about it—and only such persons speak
well—say “the grass looks greenly,”
hut “the* grass looks green.” But "we
say and should say “that woman
dresses badly,” or “the air bites
keenly.” When the verb ex
presses action or suffering, an adverb
is required ; but when it expresses a
condition of the speaker, as “I feel
bad,” or an appearance to him, as
“thegrass looks green,” an adjective
is proper. But even under these con
ditions good usage and good sense ad
mit both forms. We may say either
“the sun shines brightly” or i! tlie sun
shines bright,” “the river flows dark
ly,” or “the river flows dark.” There
are many such cases in which the ad
jective is the better word, and solici
tous use of adverbs is rather a sign of
a grammar-and-dictionary style of
speech and of writing than of one
which comes of a spontaneous con
formity to good usage and an uncon
scious mastery of one’s mother tongue.
And it should be added that no one
can learn to speak good English or
“good grammar” by fretting over
such questions as these ; that it is to
be attained only by an unconscious
conformity to the usage of the best
speakers and writers, as I have had
occasion to say before.
SOUTH ^CAROLINA.
More Duiuatfintr Testimony Against
Cardoso.
Columbia, S. C., Nov. 3.—The tes
timony in Cardozo’s trial was finished
late this afternoon.
The defendant was rigidly cross-
examined this morning, and, among
other things, testified that Hardy
Solomon had offered him a bribe of
five thousand dollars, when visiting
his private office, to pay certain
fraudulent claims, amounting to $20,-
000.
Solomon contradicted this state
ment, and alleged that he had given
C'ardozo throe or four thousand dollars
as part of the fraudulent substitute
tn this transaction.
Solomon’s cashier, Sealy, testified
that when he presented the claims,
Cardozo’s clerk demurred to the pay
ment, when Cardozo told him to the
demand, “it was none of his busi
ness.” Sealy is a respectable Demo
crat, and his evidence on this point is
damaging to the defendant.
Counsel for defendant subsequently
admitted the substitution of fraudu
lent claims.
Argument of counsel will begin
Monday.
The "jury is kept together and
guarded every night.

Riotou* Assemblages in Nan Franel»eo.
Special to Enquirer-Sun.]
San Francisco, November 3.—For
several weeks past a series of so-called
workingmen’s meetings have been
held in open air at various points in
this city, at which the speakers have
indulged in most violent, incendiary
liaranges; threatening the peace of the
community, and the lives and prop
erty of a number of prominent citi
zens by name. No attempt was made
to arrest the speakers, owing to the
disinclination of the authorities to
make martyrs of them. The press
lias been silent until within a few
days, when the principal journals
sounded the alarm at the impetus of
which the disorderly movement
is gaining, and are now call
ing loudly for prompt action
on the part of the authorities.
The Chinese have already taken the
alarm, and six companies have ad
dressed a communication to the May
or, calling his attention to the threats
which have been made against them,
and asking protection. Many cool-
headed citizens consider the situation
liable to become critical, nnless action
is taken such as will effectually stamp
out riotous conduct. It is not consid
ered that the workingmen of the city,
as a body, are in sympathy with the
movement, but that it is * supported
mainly by dangerous classes and those
who have become desperate by the
presence of the prevailing hard times.

GOVERNMENT CIRCULAR.
London, November 3.—The Paris
correspondent of the Standard asserts
the following semi-official note has
been sent to provincial papers: It ap
pears to have been decided, at the
last Cabinet council, that the present
Cabinet will remain in office till No
vember 5. After the elections to the
Councils General the Government
will find itself in the presence of two
extreme policies, one of resistance to
the Chamber of Deputies with the
support of the Senate; the other of
complete concession, bringing into
office a Ministry composed exclu
sively of the Left. The present dis
position of the Marshal does not ad
mit of the latter policy. However,
the President is willing to see if it he
not possible to arrivd at some kind of
transaction by which the Left of
the Chamber of Deputies and the
Right Centres of the Senate may lie
represented in the Cabinet, thereby
establishing harmony between the
two houses.
COMMENTS OF THE NEWSPAPERS.
Paris, November 3.—The Soleil
states that M. Panyer Quertier has
been invited by the President to form
a Cabinet of the Right in which M,
Panyer Quertier is to lie the President
of the Council ami Minister of Fi
nance. The Soleil says this is a con
ciliatory step for the Marshal.
The Rcpublique Franeaise says it
is impossible for President MaeMahon
to accept a ministry acceptable to the
recently elected representatives of the
people, because such a ministry must
act in the teeths of the President’s
policy of the last four years. A great
issue has been raised.’ A tampering
solution will not do.
Ahvxinuia Threatening Egypt.
London, November 3.—A special

obituary.
MELVINA OWEN, daughter of G. W.
Owen, and sister of Mrs. L. C. Harman, of
this city, departed this life October 24th.
Rev. Dr. J. S. Key officiated. The remains
were placed in the Columbus Cemetery.
Tiie pall bearers were A. M. Brannon, L. S.
Wright, T. E. Blanchard, and Gibson.
Her age was twenty-seven years and seven
months. She leaves behind her two sisters,
lliree brothers, and three darling little
nephews to mourn tier loss. Site died of
typhoid fever. She was confined to her bed
twenty-six days, and bore her suffering witli
Christian resignation and patience to the
end. The graces of a Christian character
were her’s in an eminent degree, endearing
her greatly to various people among whom
her lot had been cast. Kind, sympathetic,
unobtrusive and discreet, she was respected
and loved wherever known. She was true
in all relations of life. She tiad no place for
regret in tier closing hours. Her’s was a
triumphant death, and a brighter spirit
never took its flight from this world of sin
and sorrow, more calm in bidding dear ones
farewell. She called Mr. Harman, her broth
er-in-law, and said farewell witli a bright,
angelic smile on her face. She said, “Sister,
what a beautiful land I see." Shedied with
out a struggle. Her exclamation of Chris
tian jov cun never lie forgotten by those who
were about her bedside. She lived a life of
truth and justice. She made virtue the at
tendant of her life, while the past but crowns
virtue his meeds. She pictured her daily
walk and conversation—hope, faith anil
charity—more beautiful and more at-
tlian any artist's brush lias ever been able
to place upon canvass. Living justice and
truth, living virtue, and living images of
beauty, can come alone from Christ, and
MELVINA OWEN lived so near to tiiis in
exhaustible fountain that makes life more
beuutiful and death so sublime. She is dead
to earth and its ceaseless labors, and has
gone to her eternal rest, while her works do
follow her. She has gone to receive a never
fading crown of glory, which the righteous
Lord will give her for all her charitable
deeds done here.
The angels hovered around her bed,
To bear her spirit home.
A TRUE FRIEND.
