his ri fort and reiteration of his first mis-

Instead of getting mad when corrected
he should be thankful for the service done

him from the habit of careless statement,

Conclusion of this subject, “for the pres-

Congregational Singing in David‘s 'l‘lliit‘.
Taking into consideration the extent
of the prejudice in the public iiiiiiil
against having anything to assist the hit-
man voice in the singing of tiod‘s praise
in the s iiicliiary. it is really comforting
. to spend an hour or two in an examina-
tioti of the Old Testament and note how
llavid coiiiliico-il church music in 'his
day. and what iiisti-muculs he used to
assist in “coiigregatioiial'singing.“ 1n
the first place. llivid was fully alive to
the importance of having a well trained
choir to lead the singing. and to execute
the more dillicult pieces of music when
:such were used. These were the Levites.
who seem to have been ii peculiarly
musical people. and these are some of
the instruments that found a place in
Davids choir: 'rand org:iii.liarps.tfroin his
great skill it is very probable David him-
self. was the soloist.) flutes. lyres. cor-
ncts. (the same instrument Levy plays
on so wonderfully.) psaltries. ta stringed
instrument.) tiinbrels. (same. as a ket~
tic drum now used in orchestras.) cym-
bals. tcircular shape. made of brass, now
usedhy bands.) sackbuts. (a rich deep
toned wind instrument. now used by
bands and called a tromboned dulcimers.
thus about fifty bras-s strings. is played
upon with two sticks and sounds very
much like a large music box.) shawus,
(also a wind instrument.) But see! the
great congregation has assembled, and
a voice is heard saying “Praise ya the
Lord. Praise God in his sanctuary.
praise him in the firmament of his pow~
er. Praise him according to his excellent
greatness. Praise him with the sound
of the trumpet. praise him with the.
psaltcry, and harp. Praise him with the
tiinbrel, with striiigid instruments and
organ. Praise him upon this loud cyms
bals. praise him upon the high sounding
cymbals. \V’ith trumpets and sound of
comet make a joyful noise before the
Lord, the King. upon an instrument of
ten strings. and upon the. psaltery. Sing
aloud unto God our strength. make a
joyful noise unto the God ofJiicoh. Take
a psalm‘and bring hither a timbre]. the
pleasant harp. with thepsaltery. Praise
ye the Lord. ‘
We should like to have been there and
heard the great wave of melody that
followed when all the people sang. But.
it is too late to grieve now. If we had
been there it is hardly pmbable we
should be here now. Anyhow it is
comforting to imagine ones self there.
and to secretly resolve that some of
these days we shall have the silver
tougued corner introduced in our own
choirs, and possibly ahurp to, or even
the sweet votced violin, believing that
they are just as capable of. assisting in
od‘a praise now u in David‘s time.

would be a good plzin to bring the (on is
down hire and have thi-iii sold at Illf‘
saiiic lllilt‘ of the Sheriff‘s sale of horses
and cattle belonging to Mr Fruit-ruin
So with Sheriil‘ Swartx he went to New
i‘anaan and demanded the goods Mr.
Hall would not deliver them. claiming
that he had a bill of expenses ol‘ $15
against them. Mr. Light offered liiiii
$5. which he refused. "c then had the
sheriff rcplcviii the goods. t‘oust ible
Hall. as soon as the preparations for re~
i‘eviii were commenced went away.
he goods were loaded on Mr. Finch‘s
truck. and he was directed by the slit-ritI
to bring them to Norwalk.
As much time had been consumed iii
obtaining the goods. it was nearly ‘3
«fly-lock before thcv were on the truck.
It was necessary for the sheriff to be at
the sign post. this city. at L‘ o‘clock. and
he :ind blr. Light got into the Sheriff‘s
buggy and drove rapidly to the city.
where the sheriff disposed of what had
been advertised for sale. Just as the sale
was completed. Mr. Finch drove up in a
light conveyance. and informed the sher—
iff that as soon as he left New t‘anaan.
t‘oustable Hall appeaivd. and made him
drive back. when iis horses were taken
from the truck and the goods unloaded.
Mr. Light instructed the sheriff to go to
New t‘aiiaan and demand the goods but
to use no violence to get tmssession of
them. Hall refused to give them up.
The sheriff then served the writ of re-
ilevin. which is returnable before Judge
lily. Saturday next. The goods are
still in the possession of Constable Hall.
and it is repoited he does not 'ust
exactly know whether it was the vest
thing for him to have taken them away
from the sheriff. This will be determin-
ed by the courts.
Wednesday Mrs. Fredericks sued t‘on-
stable Hall for false imprisonment. and
this ‘ase will be heard by J iidge Austin
at Police heath unrtcm Monday.
Many absuri statements have been
made about this matter. and a good nia-
nv New L‘annanites seem dis mud to
blame attorney Light and Slierif Swarfz
for their part in it. The attorney is
serving Mrs. Freilericks. as her counsel.
and the sheriff is performin ' the duties
of his office. Mrs. Frederic s is cut fled
to every protection the law affords. and
to all the defense she can make Pub‘ic
opinon in New Canaan does not consti-
tute a legal tribunal. and its conclusions
may not be in accord with strict justice.
Mrs. Fredericks has met with a number
of unaccountable losses since her arrest.
and unless she is protected may be puns
ished undeservedly.
The report that a deptitysslieriff tele-
phoned to New Canaan to ascertain if a
reward had been offered for the arrest
of Fredericks, and the intimation that
this reward was only necessary to have
the thief arrested was entire y unware
ranted. Deputy Sheriff Dan telephoned
to New Canaan to ascertain if such was
the case simply because chief Lockwood
and he disagreed upon the point. the
chief holding that a reward was offered.
Neither has the suit for false im risen—
ment been brought in retaliation or the
interference of olicer Hall last Monday.
The two trials wing out of these
complications promise to be very inter-
esting. -
