REMINGTON ITEMS. Rev. E. B. Woodson is visiting friends in Delphi tliis week. Miss Jessie Draper is spending her vacation at her hi me in Remington. . r" It is hinted that one of Remington’s noblest young men is about to lead one of Rensselaer’s fair daughters to the alter. Old Boreas came in earnest last Monday, the mercury sinking way down almost out bf-sight. It was too cold even for sleigh riding. Mrs. Williams, who. accompanied her son Wright Williams to Los Angelos, Cal., where he died, i> quite sick in that city and unable to come home. Amazing quantities of corn (for which there is n.> adequate transportation)'nre being brought into town daily.

Tlie three entertainments in town and the one at Mr. Albert Bellows’, in the country, all passed off pleasantly and profitably. The little people had royal good times and only regretted that Santa Claus coyld come so seldom; in fact the ‘children of a larger grQwth’ enjoyed the several occasions as heartily as the smaller and younger ones. Mr. Jacob Bhew, one of the oldest residents of this place, died very suddenly on Thursday night last, of heart disease. He had retired, seemingly in good health, but about 12:30 his son, who slept with him, discovered that he was dead. The grief of the family, to whom he had been a kind father, was overwhelming. He was buried ou Saturday in tlie Welsh graveyard. Remingtonian.
