tory and the town Of Weston. Although

and no resident physician IS found there.

/ Londonderry, Landgrove, Peru, Winhall
/ Weston, Ludlow, Cavendish, and even
to Plymouth, Reading and Springfield
he sometimes wandered. He was mucl
given to stammering, and was Away
ready for a joke, either at his own OF
neighbors' expense.
