Instead, however, of going quietly into her dwelling and informing her husband of the fact, thus giving him an op portunity of arresting or shooting him, she, woman like, ran to the door and shouted to her: husband that there was a man under the house. He hurried out, but was just in time to see the fellow disappearing over the fence into an adjoining lot.

Col. Robert strause. At a meeting of the Vestry of St. James' Parish, January 25th, 1877, it was unani mously resolved that the following minute be entered upon the records of the Parish, and that a copy be sent to the family of the deceased : ,. jjir It having pleased God to remove from among us ouf friend and brother and com panion in labor, Robert Strange, we, his fellow vestrymen, desire to express and re cord our appreciation; of his worth and of our own loss. ; it ' An intimate association with him for many years in secular business, in social life and in religious labor, in circumstances widely varied, often such as to severely try human nature, has not only enabled us to form an intelligent valuation of his charac ter, but has resulted in a continually in creased estimate of bis worth. : We mean no exaggeration when we say that the severer the trial the higher the point to which he has risen in our respect and love. Of all the Christian gentlemen it has fallen to our lot in life to know he was among the very first in. our esteem. To mental capacities of a high order he added great culture and unusual stores of accurate knowledge. As a lawyer he occu pied an enviable position among his pro fessional brethren, yet vyas he not envied; his own heart free from selfishness or jeal ousy he escaped those evils in the hearts of others. To the honor of his brethren at the bar, as well as to his own. it can be said that, notwithstanding his pre-eminence: all respected and loved him; none envied him or desired to diminish his well earned repu tation.. : '! A. natural gentleman uniting a true and inate dignity to a warm and loving heart commanding on every side respect, while entering with the readiest and most cordial sympathy into all human interests around him; courteous and careful of the feelings of all, whether high or low, with whom he came in contact; kinffly, frank, yet never offensive, gentle as a woman, yet of a no ble manliness, firm without obstinacy, strong, yet exceptionally modest, without the , least self-assertion or 1 obtrusiveness, largely yet silently generous, of integrity unimpeachable, high-toned and abhorrent of all meanness and wrong, his word as good as his , oath, men felt that they could relv u Don him imDlicitlv -for both justice and sympathy, and could, without reserve or apprehension, entrust him with their secrets, their interests and their pro-' perty, assured that rather than wrong an other, he would have wronged himself. A Christian gentleman, one who to the graces of this life added those of the greater life to come, whose excellencies here were the rudiments of an eternal nobility, whose life had root in deep Religious . faith, and . in wli rm faitti and Intra "tnilri Ttiiifr onI. ia verence were rarely blended. s i A man true to bis fellow men, true to his friend, true to his family and kinsfolk, true to his church, true as mortal men are, true, to his Supreme and Eternal Father, a true ana humble follower of his Savlour.he was one whose memory will be ever dear to us, and to whose example - we ; look as one of God's instrumentalities to lead ns to a bet ter life.
