OUITUAKV.

Mr3. Hattie White Plummer, was born in Henry county, Ind. Oct. 26tb, 1864, and died at her late home south of Greenfield, Oct. 7th, 1895, iu her 31st year. Sha was only fifteen when she became a Christian and was baptized by the Rev. Noah Walker at Kuiglitstown. She was married to William G. Plumber Aug. 28, 1894, and from this union there are four children surviving, her two boys and two little girls. Many will remember the tragic death of a fifth child, little Nellie, a few years since, the shock of whose death Mrs. Plummer never entirely recovered. Besides her husband and children she leaves a father, mother, sister and brother, who mourn her death. She was a good neighbor, a kind friend and a faithful mother. Untiring in her devotion to her husband and little ones who were thoroughly devoted to her. Her last sickness of two weeks duration was bourne with the greatest of Christian fortitude. When she learned that she bad only a little while to live she said, "I am not afraid to die, but what will become of my little family?" Her first thought in death, as it had been in life, was for virtues and not for self. After expressing her different wishes, she called her boys and gave them just such good living counsel, as only a Christian mother can give. She qr ietly bade all good bye as calmly as though she were beginning a journey in this life and all was over. Surely it is a .good thing to die jin the Lord.

The Contract Ke-Let.

Al mreting of the directors'of the new notel Wednesday night, the contract for uuiiding the hotel was re-let. The new contractor is Clint Parker. The reason for the re-letting are as follows: Hrrrou, Parker and Shumway Brothers, who were the first successful bidders, fl'ed a bond which was acceptable to tbe directors, but in return the contractors asked the directors to give a bond to secu"~3 iiie payment for the work wh?n completed. This was thought uuuecessaay by the directors, as they thought the ground and building would be sufficient to guarantee that the contractors wouM lose nothing. The contractors could not see it in this light, and ttie trade is declared off.
