Mr. Editor :
If it is not asking too much, al
low me space in your valuable pa
per to say a few words in regard to
a certain game of ball that was
Ito have been played on
Saturday, September Ist.
botween Hill Top and Pink Grove
but was not played owing to the
failure on the part of Pink Grove

on the ground the hour the game
is scheduled to be played, the
home team may count them 1)
to 0."
Boys, we are sorry you didn't
come, for we all were very much
disappointed, the ladies especially.

Death Of Mr. Thomas Mabe.
| Mr. Editor :
By request 1 wish to write a
few lines about Mr. Thos. Mabe,
'who died last Thursday, Sept. 0.
j Mr. Mabe went to carry his cow
to the pasture about 2 o'clock and
upon his failure to return in a
: reasonable time two of his little
| children went to hunt him. They
j found hiin about sun down lying
|in the path dead. It is supposed
that heart failure was the cause
I of his death.
Mr. Mabe had been complaining
j for some time and told his wife
and one of his friends a few days
J since that he did not believe he
j would live to finish his crop.
The deceased was about 57 years
i and 10 months of age. He was a
! man who was noted for paying
\ his honest debts. The writer
I lived near him 5 or > years and
always found him honest in his
dealiugs.
Mr. Mabe lived 4 miles north of
Danbury. The remains were laid
to rest Friday evening in the fam
ily burying ground, Elder Paul
Priddy conducting the burial ser
vice. The entire community ex
tend their heartfelt sympathy to
the bereaved family.
Ho leaves a wife and seven chil
dren to mourn his loss. The de
ceased was a kind husband and
loving father.
I had a loving husband dear,
Most precious to iny sight,
Alas! that stroke, it was severe,
Which took my heart's delight.
I had a husband good and kind,
The partner of my cares,
He's gone and left me here behind,
Exposed to many snares.
A precious one from us is gone,
Whose voice is ever stilled,
, x\. place is vacant in our home
Which never can be filled.
A FRIEND.
