(Special to The Bulletin) Providence, April — Addison Avery, of Norwich, forty-seven years on the New York, New Haven and Hartford Sound Line steamers, and for the past eight years chief engineer of the Mohegan, running between Providence and New York, dropped dead just before six o'clock this aft- ernoon on Westminster street. this city. He was on his way from t boat to the Union station to take a train to his home in Norwich to vis- it his wife and son. He was accom- panied by Captain Thomas W. Row- jand and First Assistant Engineer Charles Pierce of the Mohegan. The three men left the boat about 5.30 o'clock after eating supper. Captain Rowland suggested that they ride but Mr. Avery said, “No, we'll walk, I don’t feel well and the walk will do me good.” Ar they turned the corner Turk's Head about a mile from lh. boat landing. Mr. Avery said, “This is the stiffest walk I have had in many a day.” A few steps more and he sank down between his two com- panions withoutya word. When they iooked at him he was dead. Medical Examiner Magill pronounc- DROPPED DEAD On His Way to Visit Wife and ‘was taken in cl by a local nnderhk'r and will be forwarded to Norwich. Mr. Avery had been in poor health for several weeks and had an attack of heart trouble on the boat. The steamer Mohegan left York Saturday evening and have been here about 6 o'clock this morning but because of the northeast- er which caused it to put in at New lnndon it did not arrive until 4 p. ln the 47 years on the Sound lines Mr. Avery had been chief engineer on the steamers City of Lawrence, City of Worcester, C. H. Northrop, Mohe- gan and others. He had worked on the old Stonington and the Norwich lines. Mr. Avery was 66 years of age, was born in Poquonock, and was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Urbin Avery. ‘He had made his home in Norwich for a num- ber of years and resided at No. 36 Hamilton avenue. He was a charter member of Norwich Lodge, No. 430, B. P. O. B, and belonged to Columbian Commander, No. 4, K. T. Mr. Avery is survived by his wife and one son, Carlisle Avery.

Lnere are many reasons why we have and wny we saouid rejoice. And it we do not, it is because' vur tain is growing cold. One reason why is that in this very Episue, St. Paul says, "1 have suffered te lcss of everyuung. 1 count my iosses as nothing.” ‘Tne realizauon ot the power of existence does Dot term- inate with tais lite. There is anoth- er life fuil of happiness which 1s in- deed enough 1o Iui Our hearts with joy. To some seaven is a theory, and somethung that is far oil. Yhey look at lfe on this carth of great import- ance. ‘They-get a high weasure up- on ine pleasules of life. * The speaker told of tue salnts who gave up Iriends, Iortunes and howes vecause of their realzation. 1lhey realized that life soon ends and alt- er it they will come to tne eternity of Dblis: Lhe realization filled thewr nearis with courage Lo make the sac- iifices they made ratner Maiachy told of a hunter In the fores.s vl Germany, who in somo manner got away irom the party and was lost. iie wandered on and hear- ing singing he foliowed tne sounds and soon iound a man siricken with leprosy, with the flesh leaving the vones. He approached the stricken vne and asked why he sang. The man replied that now for forty years nis soul was imprisoned in the body ot clay and he realized that vefore long It would be set free. This is the view of life we should take. We should not forget the fact that we are merely pilgrims in a tor- elgn land, exiles. We shouid not for- get that we travel through lite with a determination thai our nome is 1u eternal heaven. We should not be discouraged or saddened by our lot though it may be harc_on this earth. We should not be discouraged for the day soon comes when it will all be over and our soul will-be with God. If we would take this view how different the worid would be. If we only re- member we are exiles. You have no reason unduly concerned of the salvation of your immortal soul. There is no man or woman alive who can- not save his or her immortal soul. This is another reason why your hearts should rejoice. In order to save your soul, lead good lives, keeb the commandmants\ of God. Think of all the help God gives us to save our soul. We have the gift of faith. He tells us there is a heaven and hell, and He points out the road for us to heaven. Faith is a searchlight showing up the snares ino which we might fall, and showing up the way heavenward. Then again think of the great sources of strength faith opens up to us. Is human nature weak? Is your ten- dency towards evil too strong? Come to the altar and partake in the holy sacrament and then you will not find it hard to resist temptation. By the sacraments of the God gives us strength to save our souls. Therefore you cannot say to lead a good life is hard, it is not so. If it is you do not use the means which God has placed at your dis- posal. If you are - uggling to break the chains of ).ce and find it a hard one, you have neeas of the sacraments. There is still another reason why we should rejoice, great- er in a way than the others. There is a heaven that awaits us. More- over every moment we can increase our joy and happiness to experience in_the Kingdom of God. St. Paul tells us that every man will be rewarded according to hi works. If he soweth sparingly, he will reap sparingly. The more good works we do, the greater the happi- ness. One degree of eternal gflory is greater than all the wealth of world. It is unspeakable happiness. This brings home the value of eternal glory. Here are reasons why St. Paul rejoiced in his sufferings and why he bids us. Kecp your faith, be strong and virtrous. ¥ church Rewards Faithful Employes.

THE HOLD LAND AT FESTIVAL TIME Rev. Joel B. Slocum, D. D., Tells of Easter Customs in the Far East. An illustrated address on The Holy City at Festival Time was given by Rev. Joel B. Slocum, D. D. at the evening service at the Central Bap- tist church Sunday before a very large audience. The scripture reading was Luke 19; 41-48, and was followed by a prayer after which the offertory was taken. Two hymns were thrown on the screen before the address. Fhe ad- dress was illustrated by a largas num- ber of finely colored slides, including Jacob's Well, the work of an earth- quake In Messine, The burial of Jes- sus, probable tomb of Jesus, crowds on Palm Sunday, Eastern church digni- tary, people struggling to reach the holy fire, and others. The homeland of Jesus is in one sense an unchanged and unchanging land, sald Rev. Dr. Slocum. Few countries on earth are more solidly fastened down to conservative old ways of doing things. Many daily customs are absolutely the same as nineteen hundred years ago. Syrian women today draw water at the very well where the Master once asked an- other Syrian woman for drink to quench a weary traveler’s thirst. On the other hand, wherever war- ring men’s cities are in question, the Holy Land is a land of perplexing and puzzling change. Jerusalem in the centuries between His day and ours has been so altered that the apostles themselves would be hard put to find any ground actually the same as that which they used to tread when disci- ples of the Nazarene. On Thursday of Holy Week, the pa- triarch and several church dignitaries of the Orthodox Greek communion re- peat in the great entrance of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, a cere- mony which they have practiced ever since the middle ages. This is the foot washing ceremony, and is carried out as a reminder of Christ's example of humility and brotherly lovinz kindness. Rev. Dr. Slocum spoke of the crowds trying to reach the holy fire in the church, the descending of the heaven- ly fire, a wonderfully dramatic specta- cle and then he took his audience to the top of the height of Olivet. In conclusion Rev. Dr. Slocum said: It was not alone for that city and that land that He died, but for all the world in all time. He died for vou and for me and He simply asks that we take our cross, not His, and follow Him. Each one of us has a cross to bear, a cross that only we can bear ana ‘'we must not expect our Lord to bear the crosses that He has put upon us. The service was brought to a close with the singing of the hymn, Must Jesus Bear the Cross Alone? STATE BEEKEEPERS IN ANNUAL MEETING. Storrs This Year. The flourishing condition of the Con- necticut Beekeepers' association was shown in the report made at the 25th annual meeting in the old senate chamber in the capitol at Hartford on Saturday by L.

He had been in ill health for about 10 months, suffer- from a complication of diseases. Born in Salem, Ct., in 1843, Captain Goddard received his education at the N’omeh Free Academy. He was 19 ears of age when the opening ol hos- umh- between the north and the south prompted him to enlist_in the Harris Light Infantry of New York as a sergeant major. He re led with tkis body only a short while and was trapsferred to the Fourteenth Connec- ticut Infantry, with the commissjon of second lieutenant.
