The funeral of Leonard Warner of At lanta, was held at his late residence, Fri day, the interment being at this place. Mr. Warner was born in Springvvater and spent most of his life there, where he has been an honored and respected citizen. His health for a number of years has been failing and about three years ago he retired from active farm duties and removed to this place. Al though not well he still kept about, and his death last Wednesday was a sur prise to many, as he had appeared on the streets the week previous. He leaves a wife, three sons and three daughters, who have the sympathy of this coniunity. A queer coincidence in connection with Mr. Warner's death was the fact that Mr. Warner's only brother was at the point of death when the dispatch was received, also a brother of Mrs. Warner was lying at death's door, and who has since died and was brought here for burial. The funeral was held Saturday at bis brother's, Jerome Merrils near West Cohocton. And yet one more death and burial last week, makes the second occurrence of the kind which has happened within four months. The death of Will James at his home on Lent Hill last Thursday, was unusually sad. Mr. James was a son-in-law of Rev. Wm. Miller of this place. He left a wife and four children to grieve for a loving husband and in dulgent father. The interment was at this place Sunday afternoon, Rev. Dutcher officiating. Mr. James was 48 years old. Memorial services were held at the Presbyterian church at Atlanta, Sunday morning, the people of North Cohocton attending enmasse. The church was beautifully decorated with flags, flowers, ferns and potted plants. The order of the services was impressive, the singing especially fine. Rev. Evans' sermon was fitly chosen and his address to the G. A. R. solemn and impressive. The \Sunday evening sen'ices were held at the M. E. church at NorthvJDo- hocton. . Every effort had been made to render the church attractive and beauti ful.

A pleasing feature of the exer cises (all of which are deserving of men tion but which we omit for want of space) was the solo, \Just as the sun went down\ rendered by Miss Sadie Bartoor. Frank E.
