Her noble Christian life was a gran'! it was tolliday, on Satur S0, at Always cheerful she hore her suffer inzs patiently, thinking only of the comfort of those around her. All was done that good doctors, kind friend and loving husband and sons could | do to relieve her suffering; but Go:! took her and He knows best. Abo: eight years azo she removed fro New York (her native State) where ghe has since re sided. One son preceded her to h teavenly home.

Only a short while 'dgo the City Council, bacK.d by i1 | overwhelming vote of the citizens, attempted to borrow $25,000 | build school houses and the Supreme {Court of the State decided that they could ngt do it. Now the City Coun- cil, without giving the voters & chance to say yea or nay, propese {to take the bull by the horns and do what the Supreme Court of the State says is in violation of the con istitution of the State. In addition to that, they propose to do with this nonucy what the voters of Laked jveted down by an overwhehain: [ majority. 1 you will cet a copy « ! the Murrell proposition, submittc: people some time since, i will (ind that it is, on the school jyuestion, substantially just what the Council is proposing to do at this time.

The county schoo! Loard stood ready for months to vorrow the money 1or the district and build the new school house but [ these good people, whe were then as j1ow so distressed about the condi- "t on of the school, would none of it. 1 At first they said they had tried and ! failed to get grounds for the new { building—the grounds were secured o its eXx- pensive heuse, | Then they said the county board vould not let us have enough money ty buy the grounds and put up the {building; that was arranged. Then { they demanded that if the new house was built, $8,000 must be spent on | the old one. After much talk, that was agreed to. They they raiged the amount to $10,000 for the old tuilding. Finally that was agreed ito. They they raised it to $12,000. I he county board dropped the whole matter.
