A UNITED FAMILY.-A correspondent
of the Caledonisn gives the following in
teresting items relative TO the Gibson
family reading in Ryegate:
I'm 1901 the seven Gibson brothers,
with their parents and two sisters, came
to this country from Paisley. Scotland
John, William, Robert, Alexander, James
and Peter, settled in this town, and David
in Barnet. All were farmers, and un-
usually successful in acquiring wealth
All were presbyterians, and three were
ruling elders in the church. In politics
they voted with the old wing party, until
th6 system of slavery began to be advo-
Gated, when in body they went over to
the "Free 6oil;" remaining there until
the Republican party came into existence,
which suited their political faith. An
other instance is rarely met, where men
began with small means, reared large fam
lilies and accumulated wealth 80 ra-
pidly, not BY great enterprises, or hap
hazard specqlations, but by pa
tent, persevering toll. Honesty, indus
try and economy. have done it all,
and now their list exceeds one-seventh Of
the grand list Of the town, besides large
amounts IN government bonds. They
were never known Ms sapirants for office
yet one of their number will probably
represent the town in the Legislature in
