MR. JOHN KIRK DEAD.
Venerable iCtizen of Mallard Creek
Passes Away.
In the passing away' of Mr. John
Kirk, whoso death occurred at his
home in Mallard Creek township Satur
day night, at 9 o'clock, Mecklenburg
loses another landmark of its past his
tory. Mr. Kirk lived to the advanced
age of 93 years, and for over 60 "of
them, he had been a active elder in
Mallard Creek Presbyterian church.
Mr. Kirk was a man of sterling char
acter, upright and honest in all his
dealings. He was modest and retiring
in nature, but was bold indeed when a
chance for doing good to his fellow
men came to hand. He was a liberal
giver to his church and to every ben
evolent cause that presented itself. .
The funeral was one of the largest
attended in the history of the church,
his friends coming for "miles to pay
this one last tribute to the memory
of this good man. The services were,
held at the house, and the interment
was at the cemetery near Mallard
Creek church. Rev. J. E. Summers
conducted the services, and the elders
and deacons of the church acted as
pallbearers. These were Messrs. R.
W. Alexander, Young Galloway, Frank
Cochran. J. R. Hutchison, A. A. Garri
son and M. A. Galloway.
Mr. Kirk is survived by two sons
and two daughters, Messrsfl James C.
and A. S. Kirk and Misses Margaret
and Elenora Kirk, and a large number
of grand children. Mr. Kirk married a
Miss Alexander, who died in 1SS3.

How Courtship Started.
Grace Brown was a farmer's daugh
ter from South Otselic, who worked
m the same factory with Gillette. Al
though she did not pay her unusual
attention her companions were, not
long in recognizing that she was
somewhat of a favorite with the
young foreman. He began to call
on her at the home of her married
sister, who lived in the city, and
soon won her trust and affection.
The girl's confidence in Gillette and
his promise of marriage eventually
led to her undoing and in the sum
mer of 1906 she went home to prepare
for the wedding which she felt could
not long be postponed. It was during
her stay at her home in South QtSoIic
that she 'wrote him that remarkable
series of letters which were found
among Gillette's effects after his
arrest.
Her Tender Devotion.
In these outpourings of her soul
she breathed the poignancy of her
sorrow, and her sweetness of girlish
youth, faitfi and self sacrifice were
ever apparent. In her misery she
pleaded with her lover to come to
her saying that she had been brave
but was beginning to feel discour
aged. In spite of her suffering she
thought first of all of him, and how
she might lessen any burden that he
was destined to bear.
Extracts From Her Letters.
"I am as lonesome for you as
Oh, as I thought I'd be. I don't be
lieve you've even missed me," she
wrote soon after her arrival home."
I did not think all the home folks
would be so glad to see me. They
ate me up, and if you ever have
thought I was spoiled, dear, I don't
know what you will think of me when
I get back. You or any , one else
won't be able to do anything with
me."
A few days laterf she wrote: "I
have done nothing but cry since 1
got here. If you were only here 1
would not feel so badly. I do try to
be brave dear, but how can I when
everything goes wrong? I can't help
thinking you will never come for
me, but then I say you can't be no
mean as that, and besides you told
me you would come and you have
never disappointed me when you
sniri von would not."
girl in me
words have I had from you' since I
came home to encourage me?"
Spirit of Self-Sacrifice.
Then further along in the same
letter the girl's,spirit of self-sacrifice
asserted itself and she wrote:
"Chester, I don't suppose you will
ever know how I regret being all this
trouble to you. I know you hate me
and I can't blame you cne bit. Of
course, it's worse for me than you,
but the world and you.too,, may think
1 am the one to blame, but some
how I can't, just simply ,can't. think
that I am, Chester.
"My little sisrers cams up just a
minute ago with her hands full of
daisies and asked me if p didn't want
my fortune told. I told her I guessed
it was pretty well told now."
A Secret Meeting.
Plans were arranged by letter for
a meeting at IieRuyter and Gillette
secured leave of absence from the
factory. He ariived at DeRuyter on
the evening of July 8 and registered
at a hotel as Charles George. The
next day Grace Brown left South
Otselic ostensibly for Cortland but
changed cars fcr Utica at DeRuyter
where she was joined by Gillette. On
the journey to Utica Gillette did not
share the seat with "Billy" but chat
ted with other girls on the train
from Cortland and made an appoint
ment to meet them later in the
week at Eagle Bay. At Utica Gil
lette registered Grace Brown and
himself as Charles Gordon and wife,
New York. They left the next morn
ing. Gillette did not pay his bill butt
directed that some laundry which
he . had left behind, be sent by ex
press to Eagle Hay.
The couple went to Tupper Lake
registering at a boarding house there
as Charles George and wife, New
York. While at Tupper Lake Gil
lette inquired for a quiet lake and
Grace Brown threw herself into the
arms of a maid who had brought
her a glass of water, and burst into
tears.
Arrive at Big Moose.
On the morning of July 11 the
couple retraced their journey to
Big Moose-, where Gillette registered
at the Glenmore as Charles Grahm,
Albany, and on the next line on the
register wrote the girl's correct name
and address. . Gillette inquired for
good places to take pictures and se
curing a boat rowed away over the
blue waters of the lake. Gillette car
ried a suit case, camera and tennis
racquet. The girl's baggage had been
checked to Old Forge and she left
some of her wraps and hat at the
hotel.
The Tragedy and Lake.
Late that night Gillette appeared

cabled a lower, range of prices ear
ly but rallied in the later trading and
was about as due at the hour of the
local opening.
Our market opened steady at an
advance of 2 to 3 points with the
new crop months showing the best
gains despite the continued favor
able weather reports from the south.
July and May touched 9.68 shortly
after the call under active trading.
After the first demand for cotton was
satisfied the market relapsed into
dullness gradually losing the ad
vance. July showed relative strength es
tablishing a premium of 2 to 3
points over May, that option being
depressed by fear of heavy tenders
of low grades next month.
The weather in the south will be
watched carefully now as one of the
most important factors in the market
and any change in the present ideal
conditions might cause a sharp up
turn in prices.
We would favor a scalping policy
on the long side of cotton on all
weak spots.

English spinners would hurry to

then foreign mills will pursue the

From this it appears that the fate

She decided to try your medi

took six bottles and it made a

two colored girls living with me,
both of whom had scrofula very
bad. I recommended your med
