One of the Town's Most Useful Citizens Passed Away Wednesday Afternoon after a Short Illness. Was a Son of the Founder of Reynoldsville, a Veteran of the Civil War, and Identi fied with Many of the Town's Business Enterprises. THE FUNERAL HELD SUNDAY AFTERNOON. Albert Reynolds, ono of the best known and most beloved citizens of Reynoldsville, departed this life at 2.10 p. m. on Wednesday, June 14, 1005. On the 0th instant Mr. Reynolds had to undergo an operation, which was per formed by Dr. Stewart, a specialist from Pittsburg, assisted by local doc tors, who removed a gall stone out of intestino, and the operation was a suc cess, but Mr. Uoynolds bad a weak heart and Saturday, Sunday and Mon day the doctors bad littlo, if any hope, of his recovery, but on Tuesday he seemed to be a trlllo better, which Inspired his loved ones and friends with hope, but only for a brief season, for Wednesday morning hiB condition was beyond hope. His death was a reul shock to the community. Wo don't put it too strong when we say that thuro is not a person In our midst who has morn participated In many severe engage' nients, Including the battle of Fred ericksburg, Williamsburg, the Wilder ness, etc., and while some of the boys who marched to the front with him were slain on battlo fields, he escaped with out a wound. Ab. was honorably dis charged September 1, 1804. July 20, 1882, Albert Reynolds was united In marriage to Mrs. Julia A. Green, who survives him. Any enterprise that was projected for the interest of Reynoldsville could always count on Ab. giving encourage ment to it In a substantial way. In the death of Mr. Reynolds the town has lost ono of its open handed and progressive citizen. Not long ago in talking with Mr. Reynolds he mentioned sevoral enterprises that he had subscribed liberally to which ho had little faith in at the time of being a success, but he wj$0r ; ALBERT REYNOLDS boquot roses, from F.

To know Ab. Roynolds was to like him. He was genial, kind, tendor heartod, good natured, always had a pleasant word for people whom he mot, evon the littlo boys and girls, was a kind hus band, and good citizen. Ab. was a giant In stature with a correspondingly largo heart, which many a person who have borrowed ' money and requested other favort can testify to. Ho was 6 foot 7 inchcb tall and weighed 240pounds, April 23, 1842, C3 yoars ago last April, Albert Roynolds was born In a log cabin on the lot where the modern residence now stands in which he has resided for a number of yoars. Ab. was the third son of Woodward and Amelia Reynolds, who were married In Kittan- ning in April, 1838, and one of their wedding presents was 300 acres of land In tho wilderness in this part of Jeffor son county. They Immediately left their homes of comfort and penetrated the deep recesses of a wildernoss to find their wedding present and to carve out for themselves and posterity a local habitation, and thus thoy were among the hardy band of pioneers who first settled in this section of the county, wnen ad. was oorn not much progress had been made In clearing the land and It was yet a wilderness, so that he wit nessed the transformation from wilder ness to modern culture: Mr. Wood ward Reynolds added to his 300 acres from time to time until he become the owner of 1,100 acres of land in and surrounding Reynoldsville for which he only paid $1.50 an acre. When Ab. was eight years old his father built the brick hotel, now Frank's Tavern. He felled his own timber and burned his own brick for the then magnificent hotel. Che hotel, which has since been enlargec originally contained twelve rooms jnd two large balls and the people of that time thought Mr. Reyn olds must havo gone daft to build so fine and large hotel In Reynoldsville, but Albert lived to see the time when three-story, thirty room brick hotels are considered too Bmall for Reynolds ville and large additions are being built to seyeral of them. When Albert Reynolds was yet a youth of nineteen years the rebellion opened and he responded to his country's call lor brave men and on the first day of September, 1861, be enlisted for three years In Company H, 105th regiment P. V. I., and with a number of other brave and loyal boys of this community he went to the scene of conflict and was so anxious to see our town keeping in the front rank that he gave his buI), scriptlon to encourage the progressive Bpirlt. At time of death he had stock In the Water Company, Silk Mill, First National Bank, The Peoples National Bank, Ruynol6svillo Clay Manufactur Ing Co., American Production Co. Land Improvement Co., owner of the opera house and was interested In sovcral other enterprises. He has boon treasurer of the water company number of years, was treasurer of Roy n, oklsvlllu borough several years, was elected chief burgess of this borough in 1880, served as councilman from I8U5 to 1898, a term of three years, and was tax collector of the borough one or two lor ma. Has boon notary publlo since 1871 and in January of this year his commission was renewed for four years more. ' Mr. Reynolds was a member of John M. Read Lodge F. & A. M. about twenty-eight years, and was made a life member three years ago. Politically, Mr. Reynolds was staunch Republican, but was not radical enough to quarrel with other people who disagreed with him in political matters. Funeral service was held at rest' dence on Main street at two o'clock Sunday afternoon and was the largest runerai neia in tais place lor some time Masons. G. A. R., Sons of Veterans and Keystone band attended. Funeral was conducted by Dr. J. A. Parsons, pastor of the M. E. church, assisted by Rev. A. D. McKay, of Presbyterian church and Dr. A. J. Meek, of Baptist church, Reynoldsville, and Dr. C. C. Rumberger, of Big Run, former pastor Reynoldsville M. E. church. Eight MasonB acted as pall bearers, Ira S. Smith, George Melllnger, Captain T.

Napoleon's knowledge of human nature made him select gener als with lurge noses, for this betokens Intelligence, Just as the eagle nose shows a firm, strong will. Fossibly no uose Rpeiiks louder for Itself than the nlcohollc uose, and It Is as much to be feared as the pointed nose and chin, which In conjunction proclaims general wickedness. Certainly the most Inter esting nose Is the cogitative, for It ex, pands with thought, which comes, ac cording to rhinology, or the science of nose reading, from reflection. In stances of these noses from Homer to Wesley and Bhakespcaro can be quoted, A Ointlnn. To.lli. A very small boy was trying to lead a big St. Her mini up the road.

I' or awhile the trainmen, Instructed doubtless by some grammarian of the road, would do this by saying, "Next station will be" Allentown, Reading, etc. An editor took them to task for It, pointing out the absurdity of using the future tense In speaking of that which always Is In the same place.
