Brings Encouragement.
The constant rains of last week have apparently done some damage to the crops of this county, although it may not be so serious as it looks. The large corn was laid low, twisted, but not broken. It will straighten up however, and most likely be none the worse for the wind storm of the last of the week. A year ago it will be remembered, the big corn was laid low all over Hancock county, and discouragement over the prospect prevailed everywhere. It all straightened up, and there was a bumper crop.
The most embarrassing condition that is caused by the rain appears to be the delay it is causing in the wheat, oats and hay harvest. Farmers were in the midst of this harvest when the rains began week before last and they have been able to accomplish but little since. The few days last week the wheat and oats were dry enough to cut, the ground was too soft to support a binder and horses and the same trouble is expected the first of this week. The heavy clover is down and can be handled only with difficulty. Sunday water was standing in most every field within a radius of four miles from this city, but the clear sky and low temperature Monday was encouraging for a busy week on the farm.
OBITUAItV
Mary, daugnter of Jasiah and Mary Bundy, was born near Centerville, Wayne county, Ind., April 4th, 1828, and departed this life at the home of Josiah B. Jessup, near Westland, June 22nd, 1910, age 82 years, 2 months and IS days. She was married to Jonathan Jessup in Walnut Ridge meeting house, Jan. 24th, 1349. To this union was born six children, Josiah B., Levi, Susannah, Elizabth
Eunice and Mary Amy. Susanah and Elizabeth died in early woman-
and Emory
She, with her husband, settled in what is now Western Grove neighborhood about 1S50, making for themselves a home in the wilderness and could relate many incidents of hardship through which they passed. But the God of battles, with whom they had before covenanted was at hand to-deliver and prosper them in spiritual and temporal things. She was a charter member of Western Grove meeting, which was first held in the old potter shop, near the site of the present meeting house. She was deeply interested in the welfare of Friends, spending much time and money that the church might prosper and.after she was unable to be present, anxiously inquired after the attendance and spiritual condition of the meeting, exhorting the young Friends that they'be devout and zealous, taking up the work and pushing forward from where she was laying it down. She held the station of elder at the time of her death and for many years previous. She was generous hearted, helping those on every side who were in need, given to hospitality in her home and a kind neighbor.
She leaves many relatives and friends to mourn her departure, but she has lived a good life, leaving a clear testimony of her relation and acceptance with God.
Children and grandchildren, heed her admonitions, treasure them, build upon them, trusting in the Lord, and this separation will only be for a season, and will culminate in a reunion befere the throne and an entering in to go no more out forever.
Mrs. Josephine Drischell, of Marion, is the guest of Greenfield friends.

Greenfield Man in Holland Writes That
Mrs. Nellie Duncan Brings Suit in the
Circuit Court Alleging Slanderous
and Untrue Statements.
Mrs. Nellie G. Duncan is the plaintiff in a suit for $15,000 filed Monday in the circuit court by her attorney, Chaurieey W. Duncan, against Gertrude Rash.
The plaintiff is the wife of Fred Duncan and lives in Green township, and the defendant is the wife of Alonzo Rash.
The complaint alleges "that during the months of September, October, November and December of 1909, and also during the months of January, February, March, April, May, June and July, 1910, at divers times continuously through said months, contrived and maliciously and wickedly intending to injure the plaintiff in her good name, fame and credit, and to bring her into public scandal, infamy and disgrace yvith and among her neighbors and other good and worthy citizens, and to cause it to be suspected and believed by those neighbors and citizens that the plaintiff had been guilty of the offenses and misconduct hereinafter mentioned, and to vex, harass and oppress her, the said defendant did at the times aforesaid, at the defendant's home in Green township, and in a number of public places, in a certain discourse in the presence of and hearing of divers good and worthy citizens, falsely and maliciously speak and declare of and concerning the plaintiff, in the way of her manner and in her home, as a housekeeper, the false and scandalous, malicious and defamatory words following:"
The complaint declares the reports false and says the plaintiff has always lived a straightforward and upright life and conducted herself in a prudent and proper manner and was never guilty of any of the charges set forth or of any other, and that she is well known in Hancock county as a clean and prudent, person of unquestionable character and reputation.
Mrs. Duncan demands judgment for $15,000, costs of the suit and for all other proper relief.

Mrs. Alyea never belonged to any church, but was a good and faithfrl wife, a loving mother and a good neighbor. Her life was well characterized as that of meekness and patience, making her loss to her husband, family and friends one of mourning sorrow and sad affliction.
Our Heavenly Father doeth all things well, and may His gentle guiding hand remain with the bereaved family, guiding them safely through the remainder of their lives, and we reverently commend them to the loving Father for comfort.

Saved at Death's Door.
The door of death seemed ready to open for Murray W. Ayers, of Transit Bridge, N. Y., when his life was wonderfully saved. "I was in a dreadful condition," he writes, "my skin was almost yellow my eyes sunken tonguk coated emaciated from losing 40 pounds, growing weaker daily. Virulent liver trouble pulling me down to death in spite of doctors. Then that matchless medioine, Electric Bitters, cured me. I regained the 40 pounds lost and now am well and strong." For all stomach, liver and kidney troubles they're supreme. 50c. at M. C. Quigley's. 7
