To the Editor of the Sentinet.
DEAR SIR :—Mr. McDonald and
thought that some of the readersof
the SENTINEL might like to hear how
• we have fared since leaving home,so we
will endeavor to give 3 ou as briefly as
we can our impressions of this country.
The part of York State we passed
through reminded ussvery much of our
own 'Ontario ; but as we approached
Pennsylvania by the Lehigh R. R. the
country began to change and we soon
found ourselves among high barren
hills, covered with scrub pine, in fact
a land of desolation, the beginning of
the great iron and coal fields of this
state. Crossing these hills or rather
mountains; we enter the val ey o the
Susquehanna river, down which we
travelled for several hundred miles
through scenery of the grandest des-
cription, and Campbell in his poem
was not far wrong when he called it
the "farest land of all". Ascending
by means of some very steep grades
e QC ./
hills into the valley of the eastern
branch of the Susquehanna, it n. valley
it can be,,ealled for there is scarcely
room in setae places for the railroad at
the side of the river, which runs like a
mill race, while the mountains,. tower
up a thousand feet or more on each
side, and 'at Mauch Chauch the moun-
tains appeared to have shut us in on
all sides. • We passed through many
mining towns in this region and they
appeared to be veritable hivea of in-
dustry. We saw very little of Phila.-.
delphia, Washington, and Baltimore
through which we passed. The coun-
try around the latter place and Rich-
mond, as far as we saw of it was noth-
ing but a wilderness, and -the land ap-

DEATH.—We are sorry to have 04,
chronicle the death of Mrs. John Moi:e
Kenzie. , Mrs. McKenzie a little over
es year ago fell into a cellar and injured
er s in
lyzed.and she could not move without
assistance. At one time hopes,- were, .
entertained of her recovery, but foe, .
several .inonths past her life has Liung.-.
in. the balance. Through the loving -1,
watchful care of those in atteadance
upon heren.d having a strong constitu-
tion, she bore up through te many
long clays of ceaseless pain until death
put an end to her siitierin?r, e 'on Monday
last. Her husband and six sons and
two daughters are left to.mourn for a. • '
loving Wife and a kindend indu1gerb ,
mother. They have Vie sympathy of
the entire community in their sad
bereavement. Her funeral, which
took place to Kinloss ceiretery; was
one of tile' largest ever seen in this sec- -
tion, the procession being nearly amile
in length.
She is'gone to meet our Father,
Gone to the heaven of rest ;'),
A soul tired of life's battle
Now dwells among the blest.
Dwells with the angels of glory,
In the beautiful mansiouson high.
Where Christ, onrkingshall wipe away
All tears,from eat ry eye.
, We are leftto mourn for the live& one,
But what of that, for we know
That life is but &journey
And thither all must go.
Her patient life has taught us
•• To follow where we 're led
By the holy spirit sent from high '
. And Christ who fur us bled. •
Then let us seek to follow,
To the home where she now is,
Where friends shall be united
To live in endless bliss.
