"Mf-Cahe's School base-ball team was ?c~

-Oollegt by m. score ci is to 3.
In spite of the c-oid which prevailed
?quito a number of "'ranks" witnessed
a ifvtin inning g.ime between the Rich

Pets,** ?s lhey aie called in Fulton, and
"Mc-Cabes Tigers.
Had Mr. "Walter Camp, of "pure col
*eg?** athletic?" fame, been present, he
?would 'have had several well founded
grounds of complLilnt.
First. Die -rowd, which consisted of
-about two .hundred enthusiasts, was all
bunched either at the first or third base
lines, thus obstructing the catcher's view
and incidentally routing for their fa?
vorites. Second. Zokc Wrlgley, wlio ls
coaching the Spiders, in his desire to sc<a
thorn win by a ***oikI margin, so f.*r lost
sight of. the "ethics of the game." as
?Mr. Camp would R ?y, as to stand behind
the batsman and yell Instructions to his
"Pets" in the field. Though this, of?
course, materially strengthened the
?Spiders' confidence, yet McCabc's ?would
?have been dcfoalrd. though by a smaller
?core, .perhaps.
tMiuiy errors were madr?, as the Viali
?was very difficult Xo handle, owing to the

In the death of WILLIAM YOUNG
?MORDE'CAI, eldest son ot" Augustus Mor
dectl and Rosina Ursula Young, his wife,
this -community and Emmanuel Cliurch
have suffered a distinct loss.
Born and reared amongst us, we have
watched his character unfolil from the
attractive boy into tlie perfect type of a
noble Christian manhood. Possessed of
a nature warm and kindly, it was his .
privilege to make and hold his friends
far heyond the lot of most men. He
was honored and beloved of all, because
he loved all.
His father's death ("when he was but
eleven years of ase) was not only a sor?
row, but a sacred responsibility laid
upon him, which dignified and ennobled
his whole lif<>, since at that tender age
he became the protector of his mother
and tlie head of tho family. Bis younger
brothers and sisters never questioned his
authority, but yielded him a loving obe?
dience in all things, while they ever
looked up to him with reverence and ad?
miration. None who were privileged to
see him in that family circle can ever
forget the tendfr love, the solf-control,
the thoughtfillness, the patience, the wis?
dom, the faithfulness, which ?pervaded all
his actions. What a son! What a bro?
ther he was! .
.Noble and commanding in person, he
, was not less so in character. Honor was
his -watchword and duty his principle.
Of a rare mind, he with, few? advantages'
accomplished much in general informa?
tion and al?os many special lines. His
wit was ready and charming, but with?
out any tinge of bitierness. though more
than tlie usual share of sorrows and dis?
appointments had been his fate. Prom
his youth up he ever loved the "best
things,-' and his influence was always
on the side of truth, purity, and g??otl
ness. ?Strong in his convictions and brave
in nature, there was no parley when duty
called. So, in the tierce conflict of 1861
'65; he left his widowed mother to join
his two other brothers In the field, and
there remained until tho bitter end. At
the close of the war he. like many others,
returned to his ruined home, and once
more took up the duties awaiting lilin
there, faithful in all things.
His love for his State was boundless.
Her claims he had learned at his mo?
ther's knee, and to her he Rave an ardent
devotion, which ended only with his life.
Virginia never had a more loyal, true
hearted son. nor one who served her
more gladly. Would that there were
more like him!
Tn 1STC he married Miss Helen Alvis
Norwood, who, with live children, now
survive him. Of him as a husband and
father we cannot speak. We dare not
enter the sacred portals of that ideal
home. It will follow his children as a
bienediction through life.
Eoi- som? time past his health had
failed, but during these long months of
increasing weakness the same gentle pa?
tience was manifested, the same unselfish
thought of others. There was a ready
acquiesccncc?nay, cve.n cheerfulness?
in his Father's will, which made that
room the chamber of peace. Brave, hum
bleN earnest, patient, self-sacrificing, he
was ever loyal to the church he loved,
and which ho attended regularly for
more than forty years, and of which he
was senior warden at the time of his
death.
He now sleeps in the quiet "God's
acre" at dear Emmanuel, awaiting the
glorious Easter morn, when
" Soul and hody meet again
No more sorrow, no more weeping, no
more pain!
