PicNIc iN WALDEN On the afternoon Of
the third Of September, qaite large number
of people from Cabot and Walden assembled
in the grove Of Mr.. /. II. Collins, for the pur-
pose Of having picnic.
The day was delightfully."- clear, and the scene
ry, including a long line Of the Green noun
tans, conspicuous among which was Camel 5
Hump, was grand and imposing. First came
a sugaring or the sugar being generously fur
nished by Mr.. Collins twas hard to realize
while eating the sugar that tasted so new, that
the trees from which it was made were waving
their branches, green with foliage, above our
heads. Next there was singing, and the notes
Of Coronation, Uxbridge, and many other old
familiar tunes echoed and roverbemtcd through
the lofty arches Of the trees Gods temple
Then there was a speech by the Rev Mr.
Damon, of South Walden, followed by another
by the Rev. Mr.. Evans, Of Noyesylle Both
gentlemen spoke highly in favor Of such social
gatherings, as being pleasant In themselves
and as a means Of enlarging our sympathy for
and interest in each other, and especially as a
benefit to the children, who are so soon to take
the places Of those who are now bearing the
burdens and responsibilities of life After a
prayer, the company were invited to the tables
whose appearance did great credit to the cul,
mary skill Of the ladies'. There were swings
and croquet and everything passed off pleas
antly, without accident or discord, and we hope
another summer may witness many such pleas
ant scenes among the hills for which Vermont
is so Justly celebrated

VALUABLE PAMPHLET, We have received a
pamphlet OF forty-eight pages from the press Of
the Manchester Journal containing 1.-THE trial
confessions and convictions Of Jesse and Stephen
Boom, for the murder of Russell Colyin, and
the return of the man supposed to have been
murdered, written by Hon. Leonard Sergeant,
Lieut. Governor Of Vermont, who was one
of the counsel for the defence. The supposed
murder occurred in 1919, and the trial in 1910;
and is Of much interest to lawyers and people
generally.

ANOTHER ACCIDENT AT THE JUNCTION. On
Sunday morning last freight train No l6, Con-
ductor Holland, coming from the south, drew
up on the side track at Montpelier junction,
and as it had about twenty minutes time be-
fore the night express from the south was due,
the Conductor ordered the train on to another
lie imck, where some cars were left, but on
aturning neglected to turn the switch. As a
result, after the night express had left the
Junction, it soon ran of the track, damaging
the engine somewhat, and iniuring two cars oil
the freight tnin, which were run into. This
was all the damage done, and the fault is to be
attributed to the freight Conductor, although
he has long been regarded as one Of the best on
the road
