Editor Rutldnd Globe Your query in
regard to Matthew Lyon have not time TO
answer as completely as could wish, but
I will say that there Is no doubt of his hay
ing lived in this town for several years pre-
vious to 1878. Our town records erc quite |
complete, and we'll preserved.
BY record, Matthew Lyon sold to Eliaklm
Richmond, the place where Eliakim Ballou
now resides, December 25th, 1777, "to-
gethcr with the house and barn thereon
standing" for three hundred and twenty
two pounds, ten shillngs.
The decd says, ~, Matthew Lyon, of
Wallingford, State of Vermont"
Three years later, viz: July 1881, IL,
Matthew Lyon, of Arlington, in the county
Of Bennington" sold to Jcthro jackson
''ny right OF share in tho gore Of land ~
ing east and adjoining on Wallingford,
which was granted to Abram Jackson and
associates, by the Legislature Of this state nj
their session in February last"
Now it is plain that the same Matthew
Lyon that was in Arlington in 1881, had
been the associate Of Abram jackson,
whose advent into Wallingford in 1918 VIC
tomorrow honor by celebrating the one
hundrcdth anniversary thereof.
The jackson gore, so called, it is well
known, was grant from this state to the
first settlers. of Wallingford By the last

that became pay-mastcr to Stark S army,
and that was chosen one Of the committee

was IN carly settler of Wallngford.
BY The way several papers of that date,
bear the date and say mo. Wallingford, and
1t Is Il well known fact that Matthew Lyon
lived in the extreme north part of the
town. That there was strife between
that section and the south part. The town

THE CATALAN VOLUNTEERS.

Knowing how absurd it would he seek
protection from them, Consul Phillips de-
tcrmincd on fight, and the Governor, with
the British consul there, told him that ii
was best that he should go. The Spanish
troops were quoted for time by letter
which ii was said Consul Phillips had
written denying the authenticity Of the re-
ports ascribed to him; but the excitement
broke out afrcsh, and groups Of Spaniards
loitcrcd in the neighborhood Of his resi-
dencc discussing what means should be
taken to get rid of him. At length, on
the 9Th of March, 1870, he quietly started
for Cuba with his wife, but leaving behind
all his property and effects, except small
part Of his own and his wifes clothing.
For many years previous TO his departure
from Cuba, in the pursuit of his profession
he had netted an annual income of SEQ, 900
in gold. He was the owner of one-half of
house at s Enramadus street in Santiago
de Cuba. This house was elegantly fitted
up, and with the furniture was valued at
don. He had farm known as .'Jesus
Maria" near the city, the stock, nipple
ments, &C., of which cost him S7,S42.
There was owing to him on open book ac-
notes to the amount Of S37 ,497. He was
lessee of the estate "Jesus Maria" aud had
extended in repairs and improvements
$34,S71.12, and he valued the lease at
$50, 900, making the place worth to him in
his estimation SS4,871.12.
After his arrival in this country he
learned that all his property had been
DESTROYED or CoSFIsCATED
by the Spanish residents, the Catalan vol
untcers, and others. The plantation
called "Jesus Maria" he understood, had
been laid waste He set his entire actual
loss down at SI07 All, and began to look
around him to see whether the United
States government would attempt to make
the Spanish government reimburse him,
but he found the administration very slow
to act. Gen. N p Banks took interest in
his case and the subject was laid before
Congress. The state department took Of
fence at the open and direct way in which
Consul Phillips hoped to be rightcd and
his progress retarded. He came to this
city with his wife, and was still proud and
independendent as he had always been, and
the greater part of last year they boarded
In the Crittenden House. He became ac-
quainted with DR.. N W Kingsley, the well

In view of the fact that we had once intro

CONSUL PHILLIPS'S DEATH.


About nine o'clock on Saturday morning
DR.. Augustus +. Phillips, formerly United
States Consul to Santiago de Cuba, com
mittcd suicide in Hopes & Keith's Critten-
den House, at Twcnty-siXth street and
Broadway, New York. The Doctor was Il
native of Providence, r. l., and was about
forty-eight years of age. He was five feet
three inches in height, weighed 1876 pounds,
had dark complexion, and wore a NOUS
tachc and goatee. In 1S49 he went to
Santiago de Cuba and there began the
practice of dentistry. He made many
friends and succeeded in securing very
large business. He married young and
pretty Cuban. who had received fashion
able education in New York, and their
society was courted by the best families in
Santiago de Cuba. He never renowned his
citizenship of the United States About
the LIST of April, 1869, the then United
States Consul in that city turned over his
office to DR.. Phillips, who was recognized
at Washington as the acting Consul.
While so acting he from time to time made
truthful reports to the United States gov
ernmcnt of the condition Of affairs in his
consulate district, and of the maltreatment
of American citizens by the Spanish au-
thoritics and the Catalan volunteers toward
them. Those reports were published in
the newspapers of this country, and were
copied therefrom and printed in the
Spanish newspapers in Cuba. Their
republication there inccnsed the Span
iards against Consul Phillips and the Cata-
Ian volunteers, who were especially excl
ted, threatened to take his life. Fearing
that they might execute their threats he
applied to Juan de Ojida, the Spanish Gov
crnor of Santiago de Cuba, for protection,
and was Informed by that official that he
had no force under his command except

RRtJN WORRY

Many of lis pray to be delivered from
sudden death, and do we worry ourselves
into it? If we do, can we'help it? To
most of us it is not given to choose our
lives, to avoid the rough places, to
gently shoulder to one side disagreeable
facts. We must climb over the rocks
though they hurt us sore, and the diff
culties, however they may annoy us,
must be met with brain fret and wear
until they are conquered, or We have
passed them. They are rs real, living,
annoying, as any tangible ache or pain
could be; rs brushing and irritating rs
the peas in the shoes of the pilgrim of
old. Nervous health is one thing, and
moral health and purely physical health
is quite another and different thing.
Calm and steady mental work is condu-
Give to long life but nervous emotion,
mental work that is constant urging,
and, at the same time, is an unhinging
of the even tenor of the mind, eats
away the brain faster than any mental
labor, no matter how hard, that is sys-
tematic. As men do not really die of
heart disease as often as supposed, but
of apoplexy, or congestion of the lungs,
40 they do not die of brain work, but OF
brain worry. Scott died Of it; South
ey, Swift, Horace Greeley, and proba-
bly, Thackeray.-London Times.

THE TICHBORNE STORY.

As the Tichborne claimant, otherwise
known as Arthur Orton, is once more
the sensation of the English law courts,
the following brief summary of his
famous case, from a London letter to
the Boston Post, will be found of inter-
est: Roger Tichborne, oldest son of
Sir James Tichborne, after being edu-
Gated in France and at Stonyhurst, and
serving for while in the army as an
officer of carabineers, set sail for South
America in 1851, after which he was
never seen again in England. His
travels and his life ended, or were sup
posed to have ended, when the ship
Bella, on which he set sail at Rio Janeiro
for New York, foundered at sea. His
mother refused to believe him dead, and
advertised for him for several years. At
last she was rewarded by hearing from
Australia that her son was alive and
well and she got letters purporting to
be from him, in which he stated that he
had been picked up at sea and carried to
Melbourne. In 1866 the would-be Sir
Roger, in the person of the claimant,
reached England. Rogers father was
dead the claimant was recognized by
Lady Tichborne as her son. In a year
or two she died. before the case came to
trial; meanwhile almost every other
member of the family denied his iden-
tity. The trial ensued, and lasted nearly
a year; witnesses by the score identified
the claimant as Sir Roger; witnesses by
the score declared him to be an i'm
poster. Finally the testimony of Lord
Bellew, that he had tattoed Roger when
at school, taken with the fact that the
claimant could show no tattoo marks
whatever, induced the jury to say they
had heard enough, whereupon the claim
ant practically withdrew his case by
submitting to q noH-suit. Thereupon
he was at once arrested rs an imposter,
detained at Newgste, bailed out by en-
thusiastic partisans, and during the year
which has intervened has been going up
and down the country making speeches
and trying to raise money to sustain his
defense.
