Merchants and others who receive
orders for goods from F. w. Keech 4
Co., will do well to deal with them eau
tiously They have no visible place of
business here and there is considerable
doubt about their doing a strictly legiti-
mate business. All that is known of
this company is a boy apparently about
sixteen years of age. Some days ago
three boxes of goods came to this COM
pany from Henry & johnson, Burling-
ton, which were re-shipped to Moriah
by this young mans orders. Some
weeks ago he took his departure for
time. Several letters came to the post
office after he left, which he afterwards
ordered forwarded to him at Port Henry
or MOriah. Last week he returned, paid
charges on goods at the express or
freight office and ordered them re-ship-
ped as before stated.
Mr.. w. C. French has refused an
offer of $3.50 for Fanny Leigh" since

Champagne, the ''feather bed man
has sold territory" to the amount of
nearly eight thousand dollars since he
came to town a few weeks ago.
Mr.. Thomas Treadway, of the firm
of French, Treadway s. Co., is lying
quite sick of acute rheumatism.
1t looks now as if something was
about to be done to supply our village
with water. Mr.. ID. NJ. Arnold has
taken the matter in hand and has already
obtained considerable amount of the
necessary funds by subscription. He
proposes to form a stock Company the
shares being 1925 each. The water viii
be brought from Lake George, and as
we have over two hundred feet fall, it
will be one of the finest water works in
the State.

comfortable impulse which neither his
understanding or will could resist Ii
SO, the plaintiff is entitled TO recover.
DIR. Allen says it is strong marked case
of insanity. How much control an in
sane man must have over his will, to
prevent a recovery, am not able to com
prehend; it is for you to determine. |
am not in all respects satisfied with Judge
WOOdruff's rule. | should have been
better satisfied with more liberal rule,
making insanity the test. But to secure
uniformity in this circuit | shall adopt
that rule in this case. If you find these
facts for the plaintiff, then she is entitled
to recover, unless you find that the claim
has been settled To make this defence
available you must find that the plaintiff,
Understandings, and without fraud or
circumvention on the part of defendants
agent released her claim and gave up the
policy. Did she Understandings give it
up? You have heard Mrs. Green's state
ment of how it was obtained, and you
have heard the statement OF Mr.. Castle.
He should have known the truth of the
statements he made to her, or not made
them. Did he deceive her? To me this
looks like strange transaction. | can
not see anything honest about it,-but it
is not for me to decide-it is for you. If
you find for the plaintiff to recover, then
your verdict viii be for the amount of
the policy, deducting one quarters pre-
MUM with interest on the balance from
the list day of December, 1869
To the charge of the court as made,
aud refusal to charge as requested, the
defendants excepted.
