The death at Scottsville of Sarah Ensign, widow of tha late George Ensign, removed of the oldest and most esteemed residents of Wheatland, a town in which her home had been for over sixty-two years. was the daughter of Stephen KeMam, mother's maiden name being Kimble, native place Wapac, Pike county, Pennsylvania. On a visit to her sister, Mrs.

Frederick Bennett, of Wheatland, in 1823, she became acquainted with Mr. Ensign, then a prominent business young man in Scottsville, and married him. Thereafter then-home was in Scottsville, during all those years, a pleasant and hospitable one, only broken by the death of Mr. Ensign about six years ago, since which event Mrs. Ensign resided with her niece in that village.

Mrs. Ensign was 83 years of age October 19th last, and to the end of her long life retained her faculties and usual good health. death on Saturday morning was very sudden and attributed by her physician to spasm of the heart. She was naturally possessed of refined sensibilities, a cheerful, hopeful, sunny disposition united with unflagging industry, energy and strong common-sense. Forty-three years ago she made profession of religion, uniting with the Methodist-episcopal church in Scottsville since was a consistent earnest, influential member of that communion, leading an exemplary, lovely Christian life, pure in thought, meek, charitable, self-sacrificing.

Mrs. Ensign was kind to the poor, always thoughtful of the happiness and welfare of her family and friends, and she will be missed by the community in which home was for so many years. The Ensign home was a hospitable and pleasant one a center from which happiness and kindly feeling radiated. Mary, wife of D. S.

Brown, of Scottsville, was the only child of Mrs. Ensign, and survives her parents. The funeral yesterday at the house was largely attended. Rev. John A.

Copeland, pastor of the M. E. church in Scottsville, conducting the services, assisted by Rev. Mr. Ferguson, of the Episcopal church, and Rev.

Mr. Halleck, of the Presbyterian church, in that village. The interment was in Oatka cemetery. BBIEFS. At the First Baptist church In "West Henrietta, at 1 o'clock this afternoon, the funeral of Willie Derville, who died at Rtfd Creek on Sunday, will be held Mrs.

Hope. There are many residents of Monroe county who will regret to learn of the death Jesse Peterson, of West Brighton, which occurred at his home yesterday morn-1 ing.

inipoxted rct- Bishop A. C. Coxe Preaches the Last of the Mission Sermons at Trinity Church. The last of the Advent Mission services were held at Trinity church yesterday. In evening Rt.

Rev. A. Cleveland Coxe, bishop of the diocese, preached on Lay Help, taking as his text the eleventh verse the third chapter of the second book of Peter Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be The bishop first spoke of the advent season its significance and said that he heard with great pleasure the words of the rector the church describing the advantages which the members of this church have enjoyed in the past ten days of mission services. Continuing, he said The very nature of the text points to the fact that we should not live worldly lives. early Christians were very quiet, unostentatious people, who went about their business calmly doing good and even praying their rulers who persecuted them.

They used to enlarge upon the fact that they were good citizens and did not refuse to mingle among their fellowmen, even though they were heathen. So now we are called live in the world, but we must not of the world. You are serving God when you are performing the dally duties of life. We are not forbidden be prosperous. But riches bring with them grave responsibilities, and It Is indeed hard for a rich men to enter the kingdom of heaven.

Bishop Coxe then alluded briefly the death of William H. Yanderbilt and said that he would not have the responsibility of that man's great wealth for all its benefits. All the wealth in the world, he said, could not bring such joy and peace as he gets from his prayer-book and Bible. These things teach men tf at they should not live apart from their fellows or separate them-selvas by any peculiarity of dress or manner. Tha bishop then spoke of the Individual duties of all men and compared the life the Christian of to-day with that of the Christian of the first three centuries, when joining the church was almost the sure forerunner of a violent persecution and death.

He then said that every member of a Christian church had some duty to perform and if all would perform those duties the church would be a much more potent factor in the world than is. He spoke of the great work of John and Charles Wesley and George Wycklille in organizing the laity of the Church of England. He also spoke of the great work be ing done in New York city at present. The bishop's address was an earnest and thoughtful appeal and it is to be regreted that lack of space prevents a more extended report. Next Friday evening Rev.

Mr. Hyde, the rector of the church, will organize a tsible class lor adults. THE LAST MOVE. The Stock of Frederick Kurz Attached by a Boston Firm. Yesterday morning another move was made In the matter of the general assign-men of Frederick Eurz.
