Text from Harper's Magazine recounts a hunter named Peter stalking a stag with Jack the hound and Reub at Stony Pond. The deer is wounded, the boat races, and a rifle cracks ending with the buck claimed by the hunter Henry Wang.
The passage blends family scenes before school and a wilderness hunting day in the Adirondacks. It follows a hunting party led by Raul and Steve with dogs and boats as dawn turns to pursuit, then shifts to reflections on Lincoln and Garfield with biblical cadence urging national renewal.
The Garfield death leaves no lady presiding at the White House. President Arthur lost his wife last January and is surrounded by his family. He has two children Allen and Nellie, a brother Major William Arthur, three married sisters, and may rely on Mrs Elroy of Albany to preside if family duties allow.
The Buffalo Express describes Cleveland’s Garfield catafalque as a beautiful ornate structure in a public square across Superior Street. Floral massing from greenhouses and area cities, the Elyria route of decorations, and a torqued canopy with a canal boat model frame the casket under bright electric light. Lake View Cemetery features a Gothic receiving vault and a knoll chosen for Garfield’s permanent rest, with Hon. D. Lyman recalling Garfield’s ties to Sham and Lake View.
Hon S P Johnson declines invitation to McKean County dedication on the 12th citing pre engagements. He recalls early McKean jurists including Eldred McCannet Williston White Chadwick and others, praising their justice and memory, and notes the coming curtain on these pioneers. He closes with respect and sentiment for the era.
Recounted scenes from Albany Express describe a five year old praying for the President, a boy Charley mourning his missing father, and Mary and Dickie grieving with bird and song. Youngsters wonder if the President has reached heaven and how others will fare in his absence.
Medical testimonials from T Kenney and A L Avery praise Ely's Cream Balm for hay fever and catarrh. Kenney reports relief after use and recommends it to friends. Avery notes eleven years of hay fever relief after trying many remedies. Harris of Newark also reports sudden relief after a few applications.
