Perry, with a request thai Mr. W. preach the funeral sermon Sunday. Upon their arrival iu Dundee o i Satur­ day afternoon they found that six were lying dead awaiting Interment. Mrs. Perry had been in Iowa several weeks, attending a sick daughter. Ou return­ ing home ou Jhe 2 P. M. train she found Mr. P. waiting at the Depot tor her. He was In excellent he tilth and spirits and they walked to their home a mile from the depot. At half past live he partook of a hearty supper and while sitting by the stove conversing suddenly put his hand on his nomacli and with an exclamation and a few gasps for breath, he expired. Mr. Todd his neighbor and ii tlmue friend, hear­ ing of his death,came In and was much affected by seeing his old friend lying cold in death; so much so that lie did not sleep much at night, and only two days from the time Mr. Perry died, Mr. Todd, while entering his own door, fell and suddenly expired. Tim®, after two days separation, the eld friends are, we fondly trust, united in a better and brighter world. The funeral ser­ vices of Mr. Perry were conducted In the Baptist church by Rev. Mr. Wheeler assisted by Revs. Fish and Foster. The church was well filled, and pmm old settlers were present. I EDITOR I'LUWnEALEit:--In response tola.

The bride was very richly and neatly dressed in a lovely bronze green silk, her only ornaments being fish scale jewelry and oriental bracelets sent by a friend from Florida for the occasion. The maids were tastefully arrayed in silk. After the congra^. ulaAond were over an elegant supper was served. Tne guests were mostly young peo­ ple, friends of the bride and groom. There were friends from Princeton, III., Wankegan, McHenry, Wauconda, Crystal Lake, Hberty- ville, Chemung; even some started from Elgin with their sails ont, but on arriving here they were forced by the cold weather to take them iu. The evening passed pleasantly with vari­ ous games. During the evening, after some line instrumental music, SGiss Nellie Huson read vert Inely a poem written for the occas­ ion by Miss Clare Critchett, of Chemung. The poem deserved all the admiration with which it was received, coming from the pen of that talented young writer.

News reaches us of tiie death of El| Manor, an old and well known resident of Genoa Junction, Wis. He went to New Orleans, not long since for the purpose of visiting r lie World's Exhi­ bition, and intended to remain during the winter. Being taken ill, he started for home, in care of a friend. He got back to Genoa last Saturday, In a very exhausted condition, and died about 10 o'clock in the forenoon of the next day. The funeral was held at Genoa on Monday. ' ' * . Messrs. Bennett, Wray, Eldredge and Dennison, of Richmond, attended the skating rink at McHenry last Saturday evening. A couple of these young gentlemen had the misfortune to smash up their cutter* near the old Clairmout House, and had to foot it throug the snow to McHenry, a not over nice task with the* thermometer at 10 decrees below zero. They were not to be cheated out of their futi, how ever, and on their arrival in town at once visited a couple of McIIenry's fair­ est daughters, who accompanied them to the evening's entertainment. Nor were those young ladles unmindful of the delicate calls of hospitality, for they furnished their escorts a dainty supper after the skate. The cutter was too much demolished to be re pal re di and after a few hogfe' rest at the Par­ ker House the i'oftwiate unfortunate young gentlemen had to hire a livery to transport them to Richmond. On Thursday evening the ten mile race on roller skatts came off at Coul- man's Opera House. Four entered the luce--Eldredge, Vosburgh, Bennett and Jobonnot. The latter gave out on the 208th lap, and left the race to the other three. Tiie score was »s follows: Vos­ burgh, 275 laps; Eldredge 273; Bennett 2C6. The race was too long altogether, and it is to be hoped Mr. Coulman will never aflow as long one again. It was just pitiable to see those boys towards the last of it. The test of speed can just as well be made in a^ffve-mile race as in a ten-mile race, and the, first distance is not sufficiently long to ex­ haust the contestants and Invite a fit sickness on account of such violent and prolonged exertion.
