inch from the left eye. -He was taken
to Dr. Slime's, where the injury was
dre ised, and though nothing serious,

years, she smilingly said good-bye to
those around last Friday morn. While
meditating upon the theughts of death
she left a request that at her funeral
they would silos three hymns. These
