j MACHINE GUN SQUAD FORMING Si e To be Organized under the Sons of J Veterans | The militia connected with the local n Sons of Veterans has shown Its pro- . gressive spirit by the attempt to organf ire a machine gun squad. This squad will consist of fifty men and it la expect- . ed that they shall be uniformed and j equipped in time to participate In the „ Memorial Day exerdses. This squad i willl have for its Captain Clarence Bis- . , 1 bop and all applications should be made jto him. e In addition to the machine gun squad | the Sons of Veterans have made a call [ t for men for the various .other branches i .'of their militia. These applications! r, should be made to M. E. Denny, Adju- ; i tant. In charge of the entire company lis the commander, Charles H- Dorner. r; It is hoped, by the officers of the mit litia, that the new squad will.be suf- | ficicntly drilled, by the time the sum- > mer months arrive, to enable them to carry on the regular summer schedule . together with the other brandies of the militia. The membership of the'minila is re- . stricted to song or grandsons of soldiers, | sailors or marines who served in the Civil War for the U. 8. A.

Tao mother. Sarah Moore Hand, was . the second daughter, of Jonathan Hand and his wife, Saiah Moore. In 1SJ4* wliin 24 years of age, Lydia l Learning Boss, the subject of this sketch, was married to Franklin Whi taker, a school teacher of Cumberland County; . they resided in South Jersey for eleven yean alter their marriage, he teaching i school in the winter and farming in the • in 1865, they moved to Cam- ■ den, where Mr. Whitaker went into the. feed buaineai, continuing until his death 1886. They had seven children, all in Gzpe May County; six of them survive her, Julia Ross WhiUker, who . married William Ross Hunt, a druggist; she died in 1883, leaving one daughter: Lemuel Whitaker, principal of one of the Philadelphia high schools: Clarence B.

Camden. i- Frank and Lydia WhiUker took great d pride in giving each of their children a good education; this was to be expected d of the father, who was for e many years a school _ teacher, d but the mother took an equally keen ini- tcrcst in their education, she herself bec a great reader and student. She was greatly interested in horticulture— ead pccially flowers. In religious matters, II she was of deeply earnest and pious nas j ture, tiling connected with the Presbys ^ terian Church. She had an exceedingly - | ^PPy and sunny disposition and had a y host of friends. Our sadness at her passing Is temper - . ed with a feeling that all was well with . her in her new Home; the end came . naturally like the frill of leaves after 3 the frosts of Autumn. In beautiful e Evergreen Cemetery in Ctmden, by the e ride of her loved hnshand and her older daughter, the still form of the once ac- . tive and sunhy-natur'ed Lydia WhiUker l( is laid snfi there she "sleeps beneath the ; shadows of the -clouds, careless alike of sunshine or storm," her body in the bosom pf'Mother EaHth and her spirit with fcrGod.
