PORT Of Ksene, Jan. o.. /

POrt Of Keene, Jan. q, 1918.
Arrived this morning, aud anchored for short
tine with good chain cable, al the watering
place situated at the confluence OF the Eve passa-
ges, in this village, the novel built vehicle called
the Trareiling 1fbode, with a crew ofnine hands,
old and young, male and female being the family
ola Mr.. Nickerson. The Tracetling -4bode had
been eleven days out from the port of Saco, in the
Desart Of Maine, and was bound 10 AIbridge ia the
Land OF Promise. She being constructed on an en-
tire new plan, combining many advantages not be-
fore known we shall give some description Of her,
for the beueft of such, il any there be, who are
weary Of feeding the " leafess twigs" that are
here aud there found 10 the valIies on the great
Desert Of Ns,e England, and who may be disposed
TO oia CdTdrGa and venture passage across the
sands 10 the I0nlbuctoo of America. ftf
She sabout 90 feet long. square forward and aft,
fur feet and half wide, and about Z feet high.
The entrance opens on the side. One window on
each side admits sufficient tight for the apartment.
On opening the door we discovered the Captains
Wife and children sitting before 8 comfortable fire,
ia the stove, which was secured to the floor while
The pipe went out through the oof. She was 'aden
principally with i1rniture, had good acconmoda-
lions for lodg ing, and cooking, and most of the
household con eniences. Some of the crew always
lodged on board and the good lady did the cooking
AT The stove for all hands. When we saw her she
had just cleared away after breakfast and was pre-
pairing to take her KNITTING work he vehicle
rested on two short sleds AID was drawn by eight
oxen.
After getting good supply ofwater and laying
in a small store of crackers, she went off through
the Chesterfield passage, IN presence ofmany spec
tators who were not little delighted at the novel
appearance az a moving cottage, with the surfing
smoke issuing from the chimney top, and the sP-
parent happiness Of the emigrants.
