He looked at the reward, then at his competitor, and said to him, "I will carry this little girl on my back and beat you." The little girl was this Mrs. Wilson, then a child. He caught her up in his arms and with her won the race, then distributed the prize among the spectators.
GREGORY: New Lisbon, Otsego Co. NY: Again, the angel of Death has been among us and removed from earth one of our most estimable Christians, Mrs. Lyman Gregory. Her husband died about two years ago, and since that time she has been in poor health, and much of the time a great sufferer, yet she has borne all with great fortitude and at last death has ended her sufferings. She leaves four children who can all say that God gave them a good mother. She had been a member of the Baptist church many years, and that body has lost a good and faithful worker in the cause of Christ. W.N.T.
