DEATH OF COURTLAND V. REEVES : Courtland V. Reeves, aged 76 years, B died at Lis residence in Cold Spring, on t Friday evening. 20th inst,, at 8 o'clock. ' i - ft' -"«••• IN",., Ml o O CIOCK.

;• He suffered a stroke on the previous Monday morning, and laid unconscious from that time to the time of his death, while life slowly ebbed away. The funeral oeeurred on Tuesday services at the house, at 1 JO p. m.. conducted U' his pastor and Rev. J. L. Land is.' Int'rtment was made ftt the Cold Spring l'resbvtrion Cemetery. The life of Mr. Reeves had been some- I what unique, or at Isast would bo so re- J garded in this hurrying, changeable, dissatisfied and discontented age. All 'of ! it was spent on a farm and the greater part of it on the one upon which he died. .Year in and year out, he plowed and sowed and reaped. . Year in and year out he listened to the melodies of the birds, and knew them all. Year in and vear out he attended and fostered and mnde-eomfortable his domestic animals and knew all their whims and | peculiarities. Year in and year out he . watched tho growth of grain, and vegetables , fruits and flowers and knew them all thoroughly, and year in and | year out. living this simple, pastoral life, , ie was contented and his joy was full. What better philosophy, what finer pose can you find in any life? There are few ( such examples. He was noted far and wide for his hos- x pitatities. He was equally noted for his fondness of children and few of these there were within several miles of his farm who did. not know him and love him. In his last illness, young men who 2 had been recipients of his kindness as b children came forward and offered their $ services for the long nights of sitting | up required. He had not been as far away from home as to West Cape Mav | for three voir*, until a few weeks ago. | when he spent a day at his son's house i «' , tuid called upon a number of friends in | si the borough. j D He wn* a lUniul ■ i_.l _l ^ a husband and ;i

and his domestic life was idyllic. His friends were legion, a testimony to the vs. fart that he himself was the best of friends, and thereby attracted friendship.

The Reevesconnection is large and "Uncle Court* was one of a generation of which' few still remain. He is the third of this name to have passed away - in this vi- j cinity within about four months. His 1 name and. hi* memory will live and his 1 good works will follow him in many a ; life upon which his influence was exerted. He was during the .greater part , •t»f his life, n member of the Cold Spring i Presbyterian Church and for many years ! quite active in its councils. His l.'fei was an exemplification of Christian doc- ' j trine, which shone forth brightly.
