mously passed;
Whereas, it has pleased God in His all wise
providence to remove from out midst our dear

Whereas, since, tie organization of the Sab
bath sohool in connection with our congregation,

scholar, a teacher, and and an officer, and '
Whereas, by his untiring industry, his ar
dent zeal, his earnest love, his self-sacrificing
devotion in the service of Christ in every sphere
of labor in which he was engaged, he had so
endeared himself to ns, arid left us such an ex

Robert Steensosf, President,
Sampson McDowell, Secretary.
Rev. James C, Wyatt, chaplain of the 79tH Regi
ment, N. Y.-Yots., Highland Guard df,N,Y.City,
ilieil at the Officers’Hospital, Memphis' Tenn., on
Friday, July 10th. He was a highly esteemed cler
gyman of the Reformed Presbyterian Church.
Miscellaneous,
King Radama X, of Madagascar whose adminis
tration opened so auspiciously to the cause of Mis
sions among that interesting population, has been
assasinated by some of his own courtiers, and his
widow Queen Rob oda has been elevated to the throne.
Mr. Ellis’ opinion of the sad event is that the king,
still more or less under the influence of ohl supersti
tions, became completely bewildered and alarmed,’
and finally lost his reason. He had issued: a procla
mation virtually legalizing murder, to gratify a knot
of fanatics surrounding him. Their ultimate object
does not clearly appear, butrevolution seems to have
been the only resource of the better portion-of the
court. The Weeidf Review says : !
The intention of the revolutionists appears to have
been to spare the life of Raiiaha, But he insisted
upon his absolute power, refused to give any guaran
tee that the rebel, chiefs would be pardoned, and
threatened all who opposed him with severe punish
ment. “ This led the nobles to determine that it was
not safe for him to live, and he died by their hands'
the next morning within the palace. The fanatics
were afterwards put to death." Such is the way in
whieh the children of nature, reduced to perplexity,
cut the Gordian knots of a political situation,
Mr. Ellis has confidence in the mw regime md
believes that neither the intercourse with foreigners,
nor the toleration of Christianity will be interfered
with. “ Our missionary prospects," he writes, “ seem
to rest on a better foundation than ever.”
The Boston Watchman, under the head of “ ’Sum
mer Religion,” remarks:
” A kind of religiousness exists in many churches
which is dissipated by summer heats, and becomes in
visible and impalpable, but crystallizes again into its
old forms on the approach of Winter. It codld
hardly endure the fires of martyrdom, for all vitality
is lost before the coming of the dog days. It for
sakes the meetings in the Summer months, finds .a
single service on the Sabbath burdensome, and
throws off all restraints in excursions to the coun
try. It disbands Sabbath Schools, shuts up churches,
and never looks, for a revival in the summer solstice.
It is an appalling fact that many professing Ghris
tinus lay aside aU religions activity at the incoming
Summer, and seem to consider'Spiritual sloth an in
evitable result of bodily relaxation.
Christian Commission.— ln reference to the col
lection of #26,000 in Boston in- one week for the
sufferers at Gettysburg, Mr. W. E. Boardmatt, Sec
retary of the Commission at Philadelphia, has writ
ten thus to 0. Demond, Esq., of Boston, of the NjU
tiuual Executive Committee: “.You and youf
Wends generally will never know in this world the
amount of suffering you have saved, or the number
uf lives, by your generosity. If-all Boston had
lurned out to go in person' to the,field, they could
hot have don© half so much, or done it half so well,
a by this voluntary offering through the chairman
nf your committee/’ The Secretary also says that
the Commission is putting three bodies of “ Stuart’s
Foot Cavalry,” (that is, agents of the Commission,)
under motion on three lines, with three bases of sup
ply, for the bloody field that is to come soon bey pud
Autiotam, if it is not already being fought.
The American BiWe Sooiely, at their last
monthly meeting, made a donation of twenty thou
sand copies of Scriptures to the Confederate army*
s.vretary Chase was applied to for permission to
nmismit this donation to the Confederate, States.
His reply was a cheerful consent to the Testaments
living sent. The Secretary says that it gave him
i'ii'at pleasure to be the means of circulating the
Scriptures either to friend or foe. , •

_ Jackson, the capital of the State has again fallen
into our hands, bat the rebel Johnson, we are sbrry
to say has escaped capture. The investment of the
place by Gen: Sherman lasted about ten days, in
which a fruitless charge was made on the 10th, with
out orders it is said, by Gen. Lauman, costing us
three hundred killed and wounded. Gen Lauman.
released of his command. ' Gen. Sherman
continued to press Johnson, throwing shells into the
city and destroying a large portion of it. While
pushing out his lines with a view to’capture Johnson,
the latter escaped by swimming his’forcek over Pearl
River. This was on the night of the 16th. Sherman
says that most of his men must perish from heat, lack
of water and general discouragement. Gen. Sherman’s
Head Quarters are at Jackson. Some of the army
have 1 been sent back to Vicksburg. The reb el army
at Vicksburg have to a great .extent deserted, and
scattered over the country in every direction.-
Eight steamers left on the 6th, for Natchez, having
on board 1,200 soldiers under command' of General
Ransom. On his arrival he captured five rebel
officers crossing the river. He captured a battery of
nine guns, four of which are 10-pound Parrots. He
then inarched back into the country nine miles; and
captured , 277 boxes of ammunition and , nine more
guns. : The,rebels fled in consternation. On return
ing to Natchez, he found 5000 head of Texari cattle
and 9000 hogsheads of sugar, all of which he took
possession of in the name, of the United States. On
the Bth, two steamboats, , arrived from New Orleans,
via Port Hudson; bringing up 2.300 pafoled rebel
prisoners. Two steamers left on the Bth for New
Orleans with large loads of cattle, arid three more for
Port Hudson with live stock. The steamers Louis
ville and Elmira, captured on the. Red river, arrived
at Vicksburg on the l7th inst.'. The. Richmond
Whig of July 23d says: “ The evacuation of Jack
son, Miss., left in the hands of the enemy the rolling
stock of the New Orleans, Jackson and Great North
ern, the Mississippi,.Central, and Mississippi and
Tennessee railroads. , The motive power alone con
sisted of over forty’engines. The loss is incalcula
ble, important, and wholly irreparable. Nothing
goes well in the Southwest.”
' At Trinity nearly due West of Natchez a large
amount of ammunition Was eaptured. These cap
tures, with that previously annaunced;* leave the
rebel army west of the Mississippi nearly destitute
of ammunition. . „ .
Members of Gen. Grant’s staff recently arrived at
Cairo, say that leading citizens of Jackson and the
surrounding country have implored the General to
take some measures by which Mississippi may be re
stored to the Union. Our losses in tlie attempts to
capture Jackson are stated to be 900. ;.
Particulars of Admiral Porter’s expedition up the
Bed river and adjoining bayous show th'at the rebel
steamer Louisville one of the largest and perhaps
the best in the western waters was'captured up the
Little Bed River, and the Elmira, loaded with
stores for the rebel army up the Tensas. The rebels
were compelled to burn two of their-steamers up the
Washita river to prevent capture. ,
Lee’s army at last accounts was passing through
he Blue Ridge in the neighborhood of Front Royal
and Strasburg and going towards Culpepper and
Orange Court House. At Chester Gap, our. cavalry
recaptured 1100 stolen Cattle, and several hundred
sheep. A large number of horses have also been re
covered. ‘ . •
July 19th the rebels attacked our forces unex
pectedly on James Island and[ at first drove them to
the ■ gunboats. ■. The Pawnee getting aground: ret
eeived 39 Shots, but finally Swinging clear, she
opened upon the rebels and put them to flight. Our
casualties were small. , ■
; A second assault by our forces: on Fort. Wagner
has been repulsed with considerable loss.- -Jit was
made On the 18th after prolonged bombarding by
the vessels and the land batteries. Losses not giv
enj though One New York regiment (48th)Tost 250
men, and only'three of its officers escaped unharmed.
The Abels estimated pur loss at 1500 including 200
captured and their own at 150, but no reliance, is to:
be<placed upon this statement. 1 J
The Capture of Morgan’s Forces— On ,the
19th> of July-the U. S. Steamer “Moore” overtook
Morgan’s forces trying to cross the Ohio at Buf
fington. Lieut. Fitch the Commander says in his
dispatch: ' ".'.'J...''
After chasing Morgan nearly 500 miles, T at last
met him on the river >t this point, and engaged and
drove him back, capturing two of his pieces of artil
lery.ft -He-abandoned the rest ,to Gen. Judah. The
enemy broke in confusion from the banks, and left
his wagon train, many horses and small arms, in my
possession. Since writing the above I followed fur
ther up the river, and met another portion of Mor
gan’s force fording nineteen mi|es above—
I shelled and drove most of them |»ack, killed seve
ral, and wounded twenty-five or thirty, and captured
capture ofthe remainder
is thus announced;by Gen. Shackelford: dated Gei
ger’s Creek, July 20, 9 P. M., “We ..chased John
Morgan and his command over fifty miles to-day—
After heavy skirmishing for over six or seven miles,
between the 45th Ohio, of Col. Wolford’s brigade,
which was in advance, and the enemy; we succeeded
in bringing Mm to a stand about three o’clock this
afternoon, when a fight ensued, wMch lasted an
hour. The rebels then fled, taking refuge upon a
very high bluff. ‘ I sent a flag of truce demanding
the immediate arid unconditional surrender of Mor
gan arid his coirimaud. The flag was received by
Col Coleman and other officers, who came down
and asked a personal interview. They asked an
hour for consultation: ; I granted forty minutes, m
which time the command, excepting Morgan, who
deserted his command, taking with him a very small
squad, surrendered. It was my: understanding that
Morgan himself had surrendered, and I learned that
such was the understanding with Morgan’s officers
and men. The number of killed and wounded is in
considerable.. The number of prisoners is between
one thousand and fifteen hundred, including a large
number of colonels, majors, and line officers. I
captured between six hundred and seven hundred
prisoners yesterday.. .1 think I will capture Morgan
himsejf to-morrow.” .f
As obove .stated, Morgan’s end has really come.
Early Inst Week, while negotiations for a surrender
were pending. Morgan himself with 600 of his men
slunk away leaving the others to surrender. Since
that time this portion of the raiders have passed
through 150 miles of country travelling North and
West until they approached New Lisbon, less than
15 miles from the Western boundary of our State,
and less than 70 miles from Cleveland. On Sabbath
morning last at 3 o’clock they were attacked by our
forces at Salonsville and 240 were captured At 3.
P. M., Gen. Shaekleford.completed the work, taking
Gen. Morgan and 300 others near New Lisbon.
British Reprocity. —The ship Geo. Griswold was
at Rio Janeiro discharging her cargo from Cardiff;
she had been captured by the pirate Georgia and
bonded for $lOO,OOO. This was the vessel that took
out a cargo of produce to the starving Englishmen!
The Draft. —Both sons of Hon. Edward Everett
(one of whom has just graduated at Cambridge,
England) have been drafted in Boston. Both have
made up their minds to serve in person, instead of
procuring a substitute or paying the $3OO. Mr.
Everett himself, it is said, declares that if he is
drafted he will follow their example.
Financial. —On the 21st, Jay Cooke reported the
sale of nearly $1,300,000 Government bonds. On
the 26th of Jane, according to the Richmond En
quirer. Gold, was $8 to $8,50 and Silver $6,50 to $7,
premium/
: Victoryr in Indian Territory.— On the 16th of
this month, our forces under General Blunt, 2500
* strong, with 12 pieces of artillery, met and totally
related a rebel force under Gen. Cooper of 5000
strong.- Oar army on reaching Fort Gibson and
finding the enemy had fled was obliged to march
50 miles m order to come up with-them. The ene
my left 60 dead and 30 wounded on the field and 100
prisoners. -We captured one of their guns. Our loss,
10. killed and 30 wounded.
More Testimony about Negro Soldiers—A
regiment of colored soldiers was engaged in a serious
encounter with rebel Texans and Indian’s in the Cher
okee county early in July. The correspondent of a
NewVork paper says: AH those in the return train
present at the Cabin Creek fight unite in praising
the daring courage of our troops in crossing the
stream under the enemy’s fire. Especially do they
accord praise to the valor and discipline of the negro
soldiers whose drill, moral and elan are the admira
tion,of all who come in contact with them. The rude
mountain men and miners of the Second Colorado
were, while on the march, inclined to sneer at the
“ niggers,” but now. after the exhibition they witness
ed of their courage, are emulous of according them
lull credit.,. Not one of the wounded negroes left his
place in the ranks till compelled to do so by sheer
exhaustion. One black sergeant, serving with the
skirmishers, was severely wounded in the, leg, a ball
passing through the calf. He bound it up to stop
the blood, and maintained his place, loading and fir
ing steadily, till severely wounded in the band. Even
then he did not return to camp, till, as he phrased
it, “Bat dar hand got so mighty stiff I’ze couldn’t
use it.”
- The Greatest Capture of Men mentioned in mod
ern history was made by Bonaparte at Austerlitz,
where he took 20,000 men. Gen. Grant, it is now re
ported, took nearly 31,000 at Vicksburg. Napoleon’s
spoil at Austerlitz was’lso pieces of artillery; Gen.
grant’s at Vicksbnrgis stated to be 238—embracing
nine siege guns and 209 pieces of light artillery.
He National debt on the Ist of July was
$1,097,274,365,99. which is less by twenty-five mil
lions than the estimate of Secretary Chase made
last December. Twenty-eight millions are at 4 per
cent, one hundred and one millions at 5, four hun
dred and thirty millions at 6, one hundred and forty
millions at 7,30, and three hundred and ninety-six
millions without interest. ’ ;
, ; Important Expeditions in ITortli Carolina and
'Virginia— The Petersburg Express of the 22d, in
referring to the calvary expedition sent out by Gen.
Foster in North Carolina, says: “The Yankee
raiders burned .the. railroad bridge over the Tar
river, near Rocky Mount, destroyed the depot at that
place; tore up two miles of the track, burned 5000
bales of cotton, and a large cotton factory. The
bridge over the Tar river was on the Wijmington
and Weldon Railroad, and was about 300 yards long.
They also captured a train of cars which contained
two car loads of ammunition arid 30,000 pounds of
bacon, which were destroyed.
Cincinnati, July 24—A cavalry expedition, under
Col. Toland, of the 34th Ohio Mounted Infantry, and
Col. Powell* of -the 2d Virginia Cavalry, which was
sent by Brigadier General Seammon, from Gharies
toWn, Va., to cut the Virginia and Tennessee Bail
road, at Wytheville, has been successful-. They
captured Wytheville, after a severe fight, taking 120.
, prisoners, two pieces of artillery, and 700 stand of
arms. Our loss was about 65 killed and wounded.
Col. Toland and Capfc Dclauccy, of Cincinnati, were
Mlled, and Col. Powell severely wounded. The enemy
lost 75 killed and a large number wounded. ’ Our
troops were fired on by the citizens, from their
houses. The town was totally destroyed. The
command reached Fayetteville yesterday,; after a
hard march.
Fi»m Rebel. Sources.
The retreat of Lee, and capture of Vicksburg, and
the attack on Charleston, have thrown the rebel
states and authorities into such alarm as they never
before experienced. Jeff. Davis has issued a procla
mation- calling out the entire force of fighting men
between 18 and 45. This proclamation appears .in
the Richmond Enquirer of July 18th from which
we quote two paragraphs.
“ And whereas, in my judgment the necessities
of the public defence re'quire that every man capable
of bearing arms, between the ages aforesaid, should
now be called out-to do J Ms duty in the defence of
Ms country, and in driving back the invaders now
within the-limits of the Confederacy. Now, therefore,
I, Jefferson Davis, President of the. Confederate States
of America, do, by virtue of the powers vested in me
aforesaid, call out and place, ip the military service
of the Confederate States, all white men residents of
said States, between the ages of eighteen and forty
five years, not legally exempted from military service;
and I do hereby order and direct that all persons
subject to this call and not now in the military ser
vice, do,'upon being enrolled, forthwith repair to the
conscript camps established in the respective States
of which'they may be residents, under pain of being
held and pnnished as deserters in the event of their
failure tq obey this, as provided in said laws,”
The Ledger of this city estimates that there are
but 70,000 fresh men in the South available under
this call. The Press allows 100,000.
On Lee’s Retreat and the Fall of Vicksburg 1
the Whig of the 9th says: The intelligence from
Gen. Lee tails short of the promise of the dispatches
published yesterday, and will prove a grievous dis
appointment to the high wrought hopes of the public.
Superadded to the calamity at Vicksburg, it casts a
sombre shadow over our affairs. What is most to
be feared as the immediate result of the fall of Vicks
burg is the conversion of the great army under Gen.
Grant from a stationary into a moving force. From
its organization, almost, it has been confined to the
work of taking that city.' It is now free to operate
elsewhere. This is the evil against which the govern
ment is now called to make the- most energetic pre
paration. lt is not,difficult to imagine in what direc
tion Grant will move, nor to estimate the effect of so
powerful an army coming upon the field, with no
corresponding accession on our side. This is the
danger that presents the most serious grounds for
alarm. It would be blindness not to see it, and im
becility not to put forth the most strenuous exertions
to guard against it We can only pray that those
to whom the management of affairs is entrusted may
be equal to the crisis. ■
Foreign-
The news of Gen.-Meade’s victories at Gettysburg
had reached England when the last steamers left.
The tone of the press there is very much changed of
course. Great praise is accorded to our troops.
The Times however believes Mr. Lincoln’s hopeful
anticipations premature. It had not yet heard of the
fall of Vicksburg and Port Hudson. Mr. Roebuck
withdrew his motion for Recognition on the 13th,
before the news arrived. The Russian answer to the
four powers in regard to Poland is very pacific, and
it is believed will prove satisfactory to all but the
party most concerned—poor Poland itself.
LATEST.
On Thursday the 23d this Third and Fifth army
corps under Gen. Spinola, (disputed the passage of
the rebels through Manassas ’ Gap. It was a most
gallant action, the odds being largely against us but
the rebels with their artillery (17 pieces) were so
fatigued apparently as to b 4 no match for our men
with the bayonet alone. Their loss is put down at
500. Gen. Spinola was wounded. The rebel army

On the 13 th of June, 1883, in the city of Philadelphia, in ihe
30th year of his age, Georg e Hogg. ’
The deceased was a young man of more than ordinary worth.
Bom in the city where he died, the ton of pious parents, at a
very early age he gave indications of devotedneßS to God,
seeking from a boy the ministry ofithe Gospel. Having en
tered upon the studies of the school he also gave high hopes
of much intellectual power. In due tipe he entered the Univer
sity of Pennsylvania and graduated;with honor. His health
beginning to fail, he was desired to desist from entering the
Theological Seminary; but bo Intent tvas his heart on the work
of the ministry, he entered upon his Theological course, and
completed the course as to be ■ ready for licensure. This the
Fresbyteryurged; but he declined pa account of failing health.
He visited the West Indies by direction of his physician, and
received some benefit. As the cfimdte was more suitable' for
him, he received from the Government of the U. S. the posi
tion of Oonsul to the Island of Trinidad, which office he held
for nearly two years, till his death.
He returned to die, and his dßath was peaceful and
blessed, *
- Early in life he united with the church of which his father
and brother are .elders—the Fifth . Reformed Presbyterian
Church in this city—and few more’ consistent or valuable
members are in any church. He was in’every good work, and
had become so endeared to his fellow-members by his earnest
spirit, his consistent life, his holy walk,his burning zeal, that
he will not soon be forgotten. “Mark the perfect man, and
behold the upright; for the end of that man is peace. ”
MyrOlarke was second daughter of the late John McMil
lan, Each, of St. John, N. 8., formerly of the firm of Archer A
McMillan, Belfast, Ireland. She was bom in Ballymena, Co.
Antrim, 26 miles north of Belfast. . The record of her birth
was lost in the fire of St. John, 1837; hut it is believed to have
represented the 16th of- August, 1800. From : her childhood,
her training and society were of the best order. She wan mar
ried in her father’s residence, 49 High street, Belfast, in the
evening of the 22d of May, 1821, by the late Bev. Josias Alex
ander. The morning of the 23d of May, 1821, was her first bri
dal morning with an earthly husband:- and the morning of the
23d of June, 1863, was the morning of her glorious introduc
tion into the company of the Bridegroom .with whom she will
iive forever. ,
Mrs. C. was the first female missionary sent to foreign
partß hy any missionary organization of the Reformed Pres
byterian Church of Ireland. She had a strong mind, a gene
rous disposition, and a constitution calculated to endure every
sort of hardship. In this country she had many hardships to
hear, and most nobly did she bear them ail to the last. She
was proverbially kind to all who caine within her domestic
bounds; yet some to whom she was most so, were not her best
friends. ---- .
From the evening in June; 1821, when she left for America,
till that of June, 1863, when the arrow of death pierced her
generous heart, the time was, to an hour, 36 years; 34 of these
she resided in Amherst. Her last illness was over thirteen
weeks. Such patience, under such intense suffering, the wri
ter never before saw. Certainly Jesus was with her in the
furnace. She left tea children, who loved her most tenderly,
and an affectionate husband, all of whose love she thoroughly
reciprocated, hut declared her willingness to part with them
all for the Saviour. In Him and His finished work she evinced
the firmest faith to the last. To her sadly sorrowing hus
band’s last question, her. triumphant reply was, “ No doubt®,
no fears, najdarkness.” “I shall dwell forever in the house
of God.” Her children, one after another, Bhe caused to kneel
bv her side, and with the only hand she could use, on the head
of each she prayed and gave them up to God, (a most touch
ing scene), declaring her strong hope that she would meet

sad Btroke to her bereaved family, and a loss to the field of
her long and severe toil. Bnt u God reigneth.” Her bereav
ed partner sadly feels the blow. The greatest sympathy Vas
manifested for her and the intensely anxious family during
her protracted suffering, and profohnd respect was shown to
her remains and to the deeply sorrowing family on the day of
the funeral. All along the road, nearly five miles to the
grave yard, work was laid aside—the stores of the street
through which the funeral passed, were shut and the village
hell tolled to the solemn and mournful march of nearly one
hundred carriages. For, thus shall it toe done to such as the
King delightetn to honor. Service at the house by the Rev.

A Correspondent of the Siecle Paris; the government organ
Prance writes from Tunis, Algiers, as follows:
of “Our College philosophers at home may, and probably do accom
plish a great deal fortho cause of science, but the Americans are the
people to turn these ' discoveries to practical account. Many of the
modern inventions in use here are American, and one American
chemist, Dr. J» C. Ayer of Lowell, supples much of the medicine con
sumed in this country. His Cherry Pectoral, Pills, Sarsaparilla and
Ague Cure constitute the staple remedies here, because they are of
easy application, sure in their results, and have the confidence of
the people. While the science of 3£edicine Is carried to a* higher
perfection in our own country (Prance) than any other, it strikes a
Frenchman as a little singular that ap American Physician should
furnish, the medical skill and remedies for onr Principal Province.

THE RICHARDSON PREMIUM
BURIAL CASKETS.
Draped inside throughout with Cashmere, Satin, or
other material, and eonstructed substantially air-tight
by the novel invention of patent Circular Ends,, with
out any joints, making it'impossible for oxygen to pe
netrate from the outside, thus rendering them more
durable, and better adapted to the purposes for which
they are needed.
They are tastefully manufactured from grained Rose
wood, Mahogany,.Black Walnut; and other materials
that render them, less expensive and place them with
in the means of persons of moderate circumstances,
and all finished according to the wishes and taste of
those giving the orders. ; .
While the Casket retaini all the requisites of an ap
propriate receptacle for the dead, its construction and
appearance is such, as entirely to do away with all dis
agreeable and unpleasant sensations. There is noth ■
ing in t|ie arrangement or shape of the Casket, that is
in the remotest degree repulsive, but quite the con
trary, it is beautiful. • And surely that which tends in
any degree to soften the poignancy of grief iri the
hour of bereavement, must commend itself to the fa
vorable consideration' of every afflicted heart, and
, sympathizing friend. ,
The Caskets when required, are : made air-tight,
emitting no offensive odor, and hence are specially
valuable in-the removal of deceased bodies from any
of the battle fields, and other distant points to remote
localities for interment, and are not liable to the ob
jections frequently made by Railroad Companies,
when offered for transportation with the usual prepa
rations. !
J*
We guarantee, in our hands, the removal of the
dead with perfect safety, no matter how long buried,
and if recently interred, in a good state of preserva
tion, and without the least unpleasant odor, or we
will make no charge for the Casket.
The Caskets are furnished at one-half the cost of
the so-called metallic coffin.
N.B. —We expect to visit the different battle fields
weekly.
The undersigned also offers to tbe public in gene
- xal, his. Patent. Corpei- Preserver, a New Invention,
for the preservation <jf the bodies of deceased persons,
by cold air alone, and without the application of ice,
which is so repugnant to the feelings- By the use of
this Preserver, the funeral may be deferred for weeks,
if necessary, to await the arrival of absent friends, as
by the cold‘ air process, the corpse will keep much
longer than in the ordinary way of pressing the body
down with from fifty to a hundred pounds of ice, and
saturating it with water.
