 iisplay, and lo ! the inhabitants began i 

 it once to die ott'. so that the undertaker ! 

 night live. Tlie ol(h\st inhabitants passed 



may in l)unches of four or live weekly. , 

 As there are not more than HOO souls ' 

 ti the corporation, including live min- 

 ■-leis of difVtMcnl denominations, and . 

 ■tiiee doctors, the caiis(> of the great 

 'nortality must not all Ix^ blamed on the 

 I'oor undertaker. The trustees of the 

 illage at the next meeting will consider 

 li' desirability of getting rid of two 

 i'^ctors and at least three ministers, in - 

 lie belief that by so doiiij^ tlie village 

 an be restored to its t'ormcr .and normal 

 'calthy cundition. If tliis is found 

 ■ I'licacious the licenses will be restored.
