Mrs. J lanox nee Sophia 111 Hicks
On Saturday the announcement of the
sudden death of Mrs J Knox, of this place,
produced a feeling eimilar to that experieno-
ed when a calamity fells on the people of a
town and neighborhood. Expressions of
aurprisee sorrow and regret were beard
from every ome as the sad news circulated.
Mrs. Knox has been a tesident in the
district for a number of years and on ac-
count of her pleasing 'minuted kindly dis-
position and warm heart she had a host
of friends. The burial service took place on
Sunday. A vast number of persons assem-
bled at the Presbyterian church, the place
being crowded to the doors, aud some could
not gain admittance. Other ohurches in
the town., considerately elosed in order that
all might attend the solemn service. Cover.
ing the casket were many wreaths of beau-
tiful f owe s. provided by affeetiouate and
sorroeviug friends. Rare English ivy, pure
white pansies and othei pale and beautiful
flowers composed the floral offerings,
which were arranged with much Mete, and
recalled. the tender words of Mrs. Heinans
"Bring flowers, pale flowers, on the bier to

last look at the familiar features of one who
in her lifetime was univereally •respected,
On leaving the church, nearly the entire'
congregation fornaed the funeral procession.
Besides a large numbet on foot there was a
long line composed of forty-five carriages,
most of theta drawn by two horses, The

Crediton.
Barnrs.—On Friday last the Zurich
ban ban club visited Crediton to play the
rubber with our boys, which resulted in a
tie, and Zurich boys refused to play •off.
The game throughout was notable for
jangling and mishaps. Our boys were
again disappointed in their catcher and
had to put green men behind the bat,
being very disastrous in scoring against
them. The batting was very heavy espeo-
ially in the last inning, when our boys
pounded out 9 runs. The score was the
largest these teams have yet made, viz 27
to 27.—We are sorry to record the death
