On the morning of Saturday, February23rd, 1889, passed from this lifeto a bright-er and a happier one, Miss Nell Fen-wick in the fullness of the hope of aMessed immortality. By her death societyhas lost a cherished friend and religion abright ornament. In her daily life she waskind-hearted, genial and generous to afault Those who bad the privilege of be-in z near to her did not merely respect her,

but they loved her, for her’s was essenti-ally a most lovable character. Like thebl-H.miDg rose, when it puts forth its blos-soms and delights all by its sweti perfume,she was bcan'iful to all by her virtues.As the ruse her bloom on earth was blight-ed, but she has been transplanted to anoth-

er soil—She will bloom forever ’ncath thekindly sky of heaven. The fragrance ofher piety lingers here, and holds her insweet memory. May she rest in |>eace.

(Correspondence of the Beacon.)Fake Hall, Feb. 25,1889.

Your humble correspondent bad the

great pleasure of attending the supper at

Cedar Point the 13th instant, and if the

date is regarded by superstitious persons asunlucky, it proved rather a lucky one forthe committee. I think it is generally con-ceded that it was through the indefatiga-ble efforts of Miss Mollie Hilton that thisagreeable mortalumeut was gotten op.About 630 I*. M. the guests began to ar-

rive and the rush was so great that thewonder was will we ever have standingroom, but the bouse seemed built ofcaout-

chouc and (here was room for all. At 7o'clock sharp the joyous peal ofthe supperbell was beard and then as many as couldbe accommodated filed into the supperroom, which was artistically decoratedwith ferns, calls lilies and geranium*.The center pieces ofthe three tables werecomposed of ferns, palm and myrtle ar-ranged in th* most exquisite manner. Andthe choice viands! Why if you didn’thave any appetite just the savor of themacted as an appetizer. All the delicaciesof the season were promptly furnished andin such elegant style that no epicure couldpossibly murmur While partaking of thedelicate morsels I could not help thinkinghow very true the following lines were—-“We may live without poetry, music or art.We may live without conscience and live

without heart;We may live without friends, we may live

without books.But civilized mao Cannot live without

cooks.”The confectionery table was presided overby able ladies and gentlemen. Th • cakeswere the prettiest I ever beheld; two mosthave been representations ofold King Win-ter. 1 didn’t learn the amount realized,bol know it mart have been satisfactory,for the managers faces were just the perfectpictures of contentment Oakville, St Ini-go’s Cedar Point, Fishing Point, GreatMills. California and Park Hall were wellrepresented. There were present minis-ters, teachers, captains, merchants, tann-ers, a doctor, lawyer, magistrate and con-stable, but there were so arguments or jars(except those that held candy) all wentmerry as a marriage belt

Tuesday last, the dwelling of Mr. GeorgeH. Carpenter, of Budd’s Creek neighbor-hood, caught fire and was burned to theground. The fire originated in the kitchenand, when discovered, had gained suchheadway as to be beyond control. Mr-Carpenter, we are told, was sitting in hisdining room and needing something in biskicthen started to go there. When beopened the door the flames bunt out, andhis face and head was badly scorched.We are informed that the property was in-

sured, We trust that “Mr. George” wiUsoon be all right again and have a newhouse.

Saturday last, the kitchen adjoining thestore-house occupied by Mr. T. F. C. Her-bert, Cbaptico, caught fire and was burneddown. The kitchen is very close to thestore and is not for removed from Chapti-co Hotel. Owing to the earnest exertionsof the neigh bon, the store-boose, althoughseveral times on fire, was saved. A gen-tleman from the neighborhood informs osthat the side of the store next tie burnedkitchen is almost bnrned to a coal. Infighting the flames Mr. Allie Welch badbis bead and face painfully burned. Theproperty was insured. A defective flue isthought to have been the cause of the fire

Mesar* Editors: —On Thursday nightlast, by invitation, I was present at an en-tertainmant given by Mr. and Mr*VaFerrell at Bush wood. By 8 o’clock tbeguest* representing the beauty and Ash-ion of Milestown, had assembled. Danc-ing was now indulged in with spirit andexquisite enjoyment until about 11 o’clock,when a carnation of the exhilerative sportwas taken far supper, which was servedamid round* of laughter and flashes of mer-riment This was indeed a delicious re-pert, at which the most delicate and fas-tidious palate could not find fault. Thefirst la order after supper was a prizedance. The match was between our Hon.T. and bis private Secretary, Henry, andagainst F. 8. and & 8., which was won bythe latter. They also had the praise of the

ladle* as not only being the best dancer*bat the best looking gentlemen in theboose. After the match we bad a surprisemarriage,* the bridal party being Miss H.•ad Mr. L., both of Milestown neighbor-hood. Father M. was called upon to per-form the ceremony, which he did veryreadily. After congr tnlating the happypair we hurtled far our coats and emptybottle* The music was famished by tbeWidowers’ Band. Many thanks were ten-dered to tbe host and hostess for their hos-pitality and generous efforts to make theoccasion to every respect an enjoyable one.On our Way home from the wedding andfiance our partj gut squandered somewhat,and some strayed off, and yon could bearcries and howls for miles around, callingfar Henry and Peter, asking for help ornon whiskey. Oor oldest neighbors say'they never knew the Spring Branch to behaunted before; but nop the general talkis of tbe bowls (a that neighborhood.
