She was a true, wife and mother and retained to a remarkable degree her attachment to her childhood home and friends. The centre of a loving home circle, her loss is an irreparable one to which it ia hard t o submit.

The death of Alfred G. Burnham, which occurred last Monday afternoon, was not unexpected, for i t was known by our people generally that his condition was very critical and that his constitution was weakening fast by the inroads of disease and. long suffering Thn cause of his death was from th e result of a shock of paralysis sustained several weeks since. Mr. Burn- ham was one of Cape Vincent's most active an'd energetic men, having conducted the flouring mill at this place for many years, and also was an extensive dealer in coal. He confined himself, as many business men do, too closely to work, seldom taking a holiday, and nn doubt thereby his life was shortened. He leaves a wife and a son and daughter to mourn the loss of one who was ever th e kind and indulgent husband and father. The aged mother also sur- vives him, as well as two brothers, E . K Burnham, of this village, and Charles H. Burnham, of Washington, D. C, and a sister, Mrs. Mott, of Glens Falls July 23. _ * WOODVIUB.

He has been a kind and loving husband, until very lately, when he has threatened t« #hip his wife, and it is said has slapped hsr once for some fancied neglect of duty. He has made queer inventions and was aoi»g to Wash- ington to get them patented. No doubt his brother's sad death has preyed on his mind until It has brought about a temporary iu- Bamty.

Owing to the high wind the new barn of Dr. Dale, the buildings of A. D. Lowe and John Patch were imminent danger, as well as the'lum- ber on the lot for the erection of Mr. Dale's house The pail brigade composed of men, women and children, did heroic service fighting fire.
