Abernant Boy's Sudden Death.
Abernant Boy's Sudden Death. At the Hhoswenallt Hotel, Abernant, on Monday, an inquest was held en Ebenezer Meyriek, 9, Foreman's Row, Abernant. Evidence was given by the mother of deceased, a widow. ,tited that her son was 13 years of age, and he did not tell her that he was ill before Friday night. As he retired t" bed that night at 10.30 he complained of his stomach. At six the following morning his conditioll became worse, and he died an hour later. He was a strong boy. He had complained to other people that he was ill.—Thomas Davies. schoolmaster, Abernant, said that the boy was one of his pupils. He noticed that the hoy was unwell on Tuesday. He was absent from school on Monday, but attended for the rest of the week, and was looking better. -Nfr, Morris, Abernant Road. said the boy told her on Friday night he was ill when he called on an errand.—J. Morris, husband of the last witness, deposed to seeing the boy on Friday night seated on the pavement. In reply to a question the boy said he was ill. Witness then carried him to his (the boy's) home.—Dr Graham deposed to seeing the body soon after death; the appearances were quite natural. The boy might hare strained himself, and ruptured a small blood vessel. Death was probably due to some internal injury. There was no suggestion of any poisoning.—The jury (foreman, Mr David James, Abernant) returned a Terdict in accordance with the medical Afidmce.
Cwmdare, Trecynon, and Llwydcoed…
Cwmdare, Trecynon, and Llwydcoed Notes. BY "HYPOS." I Well. well, after knocking at a door in Bryn Terrace for about a quarter of an hour a caller felt so very tired that he leaned on the door knob. The door suddenly opened, and-wpll. the language is unreportable. My word. Mrs you kept the grocers' man t-ather busy on the hill, didn't you ? He was there for three- quarters of an hour writing your orders for groceries. Evidently the strike had no terrors for yon. Those young men didn't half make a noise at the bottom of Harriet Street on Sunday week. Singing comic songs, t.oo. Shades of Cynog! Fancy the pom breaking iuto seven little bits! How is Miss E going to share the piece* ? Since poor W lost the ring he has also lost his lady-love. He still has the pig ring. I would advise him to go in for a pig now instead. \Vho said that Llwydcoed lasses arc not outspoken and to the poirit? Look how M told the Merthyr lad to buzz off," at the same time exhibiting a fine new engagement ring. Poor old Jo(,! Who came tripping home 011 Saturday night (bewitching hour) as if every step p gave him pleasured He was loaded as follows:A bunch of rhubarb under one arm; a bag of Brussels sprouts under the other, and a bottle labelled xxx sprouting out of each of his pockets? What a number of slouch hats are coin- ing out again. Where there's life there's soap. Let's soap that when Mrs D sees this note take the tip. There's a little log cahill down the lane lovers' lane, just room for two. Who occupies the show each evening!" Oh, my eye!

I Letters to the Editor.
I Letters to the Editor. KATABLK INDIFFERENCE. Dear Sir,—111 the matter of rates ana taxes the Aberdare District Coun- cil seems to he completely indifferent, is it because some of them contribute s > little, and they are indifferent as to what others have to pay? ]t is on tradespeople, as a rule, that the burden talis. INQUIRER. ISOLATION HOSPITAL. Sir;—I notice that the Aberdare Dis- trict Council purpose .spending a large sum of money on a site for an Isolation Hospital, some £ 8,750. Would it not he possible, through the influence of Lord Merthyr, to prevail on the Mar- quis of Bute to present this to the town:- Abernant House is and has been idle for so long that this would be an excellent and memorable purpose for its use. Is there 110 one that will take rle matter up?—Yours, JOHN JONES. MOHB TRAINS WANTED. Dear Sir,-A llow me to draw the atten- tion of the Aberdare Chamber of Trade to the bad train service between Hirwain and Merthyr. I know thev have already moved in the matter, but will they point out to the G.W.R. Co. that it is a very great necessity to the Merthyr and Aberdare districts to have more trains, especially a. later one than the 8.30 p.m. on week nights and a later one also on Sundays. Fancy taking a walk on a Sunday afternoon across the 11101111- tain from Aberdare to Merthyr, and j having to rush back by the 5.5") p.1Il.. before one can get a cup of tea. I think that the 8.7 p.m. in Merthyr could easily be run back to Hirwain. It would not mean much to the railway company, but a Jot to thp people for whom they aYe 1 supposed to he eutering. In voicing this I am sure I have the support of all the district.—Yours, etc., A LADY RATEPAYER. MR. KIMPTON AND EMPLOYMENT! OF BARMAIDS. Sir,—Mr. A. E. Kimpton, Church j nussiotier.inan address to a Temper- ance Society at Aberdare, recently ar- gued that barmaids should not be em- ployed, and gave as one of his principal reasons that they were constantly sub- jected to insults and obscene language by drunken persons in the bar, and that while some publicans resented this con- duct many did not, and that if the bar- maid complained she was open to dis- missal, and, further, that the publican was not bound to give a character to a dismissed barmaid. While I am not go- ing- to argue as to the desirability or non- desirability of the employment of bar- maids, I certainly think the above statement is a very serious and unde- served reflection upon a most respectable class of tradesman—the publican—and it would be interesting to know if the speaker had ever known an instance of the publican who. encouraged drunken person., to insult and use obscene language to his barmaids, or to dismiss his barmaids without a character if they J complained to him of such conduct, While I. myself, am a Temperance ad- vocate I do not agree with making statements of this character, which, I alii sure, must be without foundation, even in the furtherance of our cause. We must have some regard for fair-play.— I alii. T. PREECE PRICHAR1). W.A.I). TO B.B.D. AND BACCHUS (THE GOD OF WINE). Deal- Sir,—I am writing my farewell letter to the gods of wine. It would be beneath my dignity to take notice of them. It is manners that make the man. They are no illf-ii-))Uffooll oil I I-. People tell me, They are only having you 011 because you denounce ardent spirits." 1 am glad that they see it. These writers have 110 arguments at all, only they try to put me down because of that. But I will not be put down. Not as long as there are five and a litlf million men. women, and children in a condition of poverty indirectly and dir- ectly throug-h drink. Where is your sympathy; your letters are nothing but humbugging. First you said that I was doing nothing of any service. Then I showed you up. and the half has never been told. I can treat on other subjects as well as alcohol. You may put any initials you like. I have no axe to grind, remember. The object- of all natural food is to Imilrl up and sustain the body, to nouiish and warm it, to give it strength, and to preserve life as long as possible. But alcohol is not a food. Remember again, they who abstain from stroii, (ii-iiiks of all kinds arc not only amongst the most industrious and use- ful, but are aI,o amongst the healthiest and the happiest of mankind. "Blessed are ye when men shall revile you aud 1 persecute you. and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely for my sake. Rejoice and be exceeding glad, for great is your reward in heaven." God is not mocked.—Yours etc., H.R.I.P..
