Of Dr. Bellows it is unnecessary to say anything where he is so well and favorably known. We must however congratulate him upon his choice. Though we have not the pleasure of the lady's acquaintance, we are glad to learn that she is one of the most beautiful and accomplished of Canandaigua's fair daughters, and not only this, but in her every walk her life has been that of a devoted, useful Christian lady. Already has she made a most favorable impression upon those of our people who have met her, and we cordially welcome her to Norwich Society, to which she will add greatly by her pleasing manners and engaging disposition.

News Item
Nearly all of our citizens remember John Smythe, or "Jack the sailor," who died here about four years ago. We recently visited his grave in the cemetery at Genegantslet Corners and we found it fitted up in splendid style. The lot is nicely graded, and a large and beautiful marble cross is at the head of the grave, which is enclosed by six substantial marble posts, connected with iron rods. At the center of the cross is a large, raised anchor over which is inscribed in a half circle the sentence "Our Sailor Friend." Below is a beautiful masonic emblem and the name and age of our departed friend. The monument &c were purchased and erected by James W. Brower of Albany who has had them placed over the remains of poor old Jack, in remembrance of his many virtues.

Nov. 4, 1875, Mrs. Harriet Graves, the beloved wife of our highly esteemed citizen, Mr. G.S. Graves, passed from our midst by death. Her sickness was short, but very severe. On Tuesday afternoon she was taken sick, medical aid proved inefficient to stay its progress, and at half past ten on Thursday morning she exchanged mortality for life. In this visitation her family have sustained a heavy and irreparable loss. Though of a weakly physical constitution yet the deceased was a lady of very superior abilities, as a wife and mother she discharged those sacred obligations with deep kindness and affection and with unusual prudence and discretion, as a friend those who knew her best loved her most.
Naturally reserved and unobtrusive, her many excellences were often concealed save to those who shared her intimate acquaintance. Mrs. Graves became converted to God when in her 16th year, and united with the M.E. Church of this village, and this relation has been sustained with uniform consistency of character from that time to her departure. A true friend to the cause of Christ, she was warmly attached to the Church of her early choice, and in her removal the church is again called upon to suffer a great loss. In the midst of sorrow and grief, we are cheered with the thought that having lived in the Lord, she has died in the Lord, having spent twenty-five years in the service of her Master. She has gone to await the "well done." The funeral services which took place on Saturday were attended by a large number of friends, the deepest sympathy being felt for the family.
