The very small attendance U accounted for in part by the faot that Friday was aq old time cold winter rainy day and people beg to be excused from worship under such unfavourable conditions but then very few lndeea came to town on that day on business.

Some trees were transplanted to the school house grounds, done by the pupils, besides this, there were other exIerelses appropralte to the occasion which made of It, of much Impress to all concerned. The small-pox situation and the shrink in the price of oottoo daring the past week gave i>lu ia a ?r?at rintl of conversation and dli cusslon. The iwo combined created no little uneasiness and trouble. - As there are Bald to be, not far off, several cases of tbe sometimes and somewhere fatal j rod much dreaded disease every body Is I talking about It, and no body wants* It. Tbe J nearness of tbe something which is supposed to be tbe small pox, has caused a consideraS ble revival in vaccination, tbe Doctors having bad ranch to do in that line.

Their conjugal connection of hair a century extended far beyond that of most of their friends of earlier days was doubtless given them for wise and good purpose and thay have utilized U to the fullest extent. Their few remaining friends of years agone can bat hope for them many years to come nf tho Inr and hannlnsss that have crowned - their Uvea In the years gone by. Troupe. j ?
