But a few days before Mr. Mitchell's
death he buried his only son. He went

was living there and who was sick.
While there his soil died and he brought
his remains to Butler where they were
buried last Tuesday a week, just a week
from the time the remains of Mr.
! Mitchell himself were laid away. The
weather was very severe when soing to
and returning from Cleveland and that,
with the shock of his son's death,proved
more than his system could stand.
John Mitchell was quite an active
man in the affairs of life. He is the
last of the family of the elder James
Mitchell, one of the earliest pioneer* of
the county, and who lived on the Kit
tanning road about two miles east of

Mr. Mitchell held various offices of
trust iu the county, being at one time
the Sheriff of the county aud recently
one of its Commissioners which last of
fice lie vacated only on the first of this
year. He held oth*-r official positions,
and being a man of very generous dis
position and peaceable manners exercis
ed much influence among his fellow
citizens. All knew hiui as a kind, ten
der hearted man, one always willing to
oblige and always liberal and chari
table.
The exercises at the funeral werecon
dnctcd by the Revs Oiler and Worrell
of the Presbyterian churches of this
place and the remains were followed to
the grave by a very large circle of rela
tives and friends.

On Friday there were rumors of the
Boers sueing for peace, and these were
renewed on Saturday and Sunday.
Mafeking was reported to be iu sore
distress from the spread of feyer and
dysentery.
President Krnger, addressing a crowd
of people at Pretoria said:
"Although God is testing our people,
my personal opinion is that the limit of
oilr test is nearly reached. If the peo
ple are sustained bv faith in tin* time of
adversity, God will soon again turn the
tide in our favor. If we have strong
faith in God, He will surely deliver us.
The God of deliverance of the olden
time is the same God now."
On Saturday there was sharp fitrht -
between the English cavalry and some
Boers near Dreifontein, ending in the
retreat of the Boors.
On Tuesday Gen. Robert's forces

The English government refused to en
tertain the Boer overtures for peace.

A SPLENDID EXAMPLE
of the maker's skill ni><l our value giving
is the Hue of
SUITS AND OVERCOATS
we have here.
The material used is that which is
generally j>ut into the products of the
high priced tailors, but our standard of
quality is a good many degrees above
our standard of prices, so our goods all
value for much more than we charge.
