The parents of the boy were away from home, and there was no one in the house with him except a young er sister. The boy's mother had b jen quilting, the frame being suspended from the joists by strands of a plow line. She had removed the frame and left one of the strands hanging from the joist. At the end of this strand was a loop, and it seems that the boy climbed into a chair, got the loop around his neck and fell ottt of the chair, thus strangling himself to death. When the parents returned home they foundtheir boy dead, his feet about six iq ches from the Moor. The little sister told what thc boy did, and said she thought he was just playing when she saw him swinging around by the neck, From the'little girl's statement the parents were satisfied that it was an accident, and uo inquest was held.

She was the mother of twelve chil dren, ten of whom, with her venerable husband, survive her. In her young womanhood she joined the Baptist Church, and throughout her Hie was a most devoted and exemplary member. In every relation of life she bore her self with becoming and exemplary dig nity, always tender, patient and self sacrificing, looking to the comfort and pleasure of others rather than herself. She was true to her Church, faithful to her husband and devoted to her chil dren. Spending a long and useful life, she leaves to her children and friends a pure influence, a noble example and blessed memory, which, as a sacred, holy, hallowed heritage, will be a last ing benediction. 'Her loved ones, in their sore bereavement, have the con solation of knowing that she now en joys her reward in Heaven.
