The Essex built schooner, Eleazer 
Burnham, was run into and sunk by 
Steamer Camden while riding in 
Rockland harbor on Monday. The 
schooner’s crew escaped in one of 
the small boats. Nothing was known 
of the accident by others than the 
crew until the fog cleared and the 
tops of the masts were seen sticking 
out of the water. The cause of the 
accident was the dense fog.

ESSEX. 
It was a banner day at the Con- 
gregational church on Sunday. Rey. 
Washington Choate, D.D., supplied 
the pulpit forenoon and evening and 
Miss Helen Mears sang twice at the 
forenoon service. Dr. Choate is an 
Essex boy and always a_ favorite. 
He drew large congregations at both 
services and gave his hearers elo- 
quent and scholarly discourses. Miss 
Helen Mears is the daughter of Rev. 
D. O. Mears, D.D., recently of Al- 
bany, N. Y., now retired and resid- 
ing in Essex. Dr. Mears during his 
active ministry, was noted for elo- 
quence and scholarly attainments, 
always commanded the best pulpits, 
and was classed among the ablest 
ministers of his denomination. Miss 
Mears has a cultured voice of great 
richness and power, combined with a 
personal magnetism, a characteristic 
so noticeable in her father, which 
gives her rare power to sway an au- 
dience at will. Miss Mears sang 
twice to the great delight of the con- 
gregation. We predict as great suc- 
cess for her in singing as Dr. Mears 
has had in preaching. The YPSCE 
meeting was led by Miss Frances 
Low. It was a good meeting. At 
this meeting it was voted that the 
society assume the expense and re- 
sponsibility of furnishing supplies 
for the pulpit during the absence of 
their pastor while on his four weeks’ 
vacation. At the Sabbath school it 
was voted to take up a special col- 
lection to defray the deficit in the 
picnic expense. It is expected that 
Rev. D. O. Mears, D. D., will preach 
at the Congregational church on Au- 
gust 20th.
