Bakersfield, who is now serving his 46th
term. Mr.. Kellogg was elected to the
Office of Town Clerk in 1926, succeeding
his father in the Office, and that too, be-

logg has been Judge of the County
Court three years, in 1850, 1851 and 1852;
represented Pittsford in the Legislature
seven years, from 1886 to 1910, and from
1s42 to 1S45, and 80 years Justice of the
Peace. Judge Kellogg's official life has
been one of responsibility, and he has
faithfully and honorably performed al
to the acceptance of his constituents.
He has been identified with various pub
lie societies and associations in this
county and State, in which he has taken
an active and generous interest, having
been President of the Rutland County
Agricultural Society, and for many years
Vice. President of the Vermont Colonial
tion Society. The token of the appre-
citation of his labors, rendered him by
his fellow townsmen, must be gratifying
to him as it is honorable to them. We
trust many years may yet be meted out
to Mr.. Kellogg, to be useful to the pub
lie service and pleasant to himself and
