They peddle meat in Woodstock
from hearse. So says the truthful
Post.-Bwlington Democrat
We don't know where Brother
Perkins gets his meat, nor have we
any desire to know. but we do know
that Messrs Richmond g. Pinney
keep the best Market in this town or
any other town in the State, and that
they don't ''peddle" meat from a
''hearse' to Brother Perkins or any
body else.
Brother Greene, we believe never
gets slight" but we do wish he would
get his roof tight" once. We are
interested in this matter-have been
for three or four years.
"A Vast deal of powder and shot
is being expended in the woods just
now, and great many birds get fear,
fully scared.
Folks who didn't 90 to church
last Sunday say the beechnut crop is
very fair one, and that grey squerels
are numerous.
The Dramatic entertainment, Civ
en- by the Woodstock Club at the
Town Hall Monday evening was pretty
fairly attended, and gave good salts
faction. Some $75 was taken for

"A French Modoc got off his
preservation" on South Street Sat

having considerable ''blue ruin or
board, he wanted to fight every body
VIM. Hewitt and r. NJ. Parke,
took him to the Windsor County
institution on Central Street.
During the evening some of his broth
err Modocs begged him off, and took
him to his ''ranche." He probabl,
wonld sing the sad refrain. if he knew
it
GOOD bye, sad world, am going home"
The Fair Ground Association
and the Windsor County Agricultural
Society do not hitch very well. The
Association want the largest half o.
the loaf-just as they have had it fol
the last three years. The Agricultural
Society, offer them 500 and the ped
d!ers and huxters licence per year fol
the Use of the Grounds. This il
enough-at least any peddler Or hux
ter who has been unfortunate enough
to hire, will say So The Association
want $3.50 and the huxters and ped
oilers license besides. We hop,
they will come to some term
in this matter. We want Windsor Co
the Fair held here. But we don't see
how the Society can afford to offe
any more, and save themselves from
bankruptcy--in which condition they
were three years ago, when the Presit
]. +. Mckenzie, John Porter and the
late VIM. S. Carter, pledged theil
names for the money and paid off thu
Indebtedness, and trusted to "Manage
ment" and 'Luck" of the Society fo
pay. Now it is out of debt. Som
six hundred dollars of the Society
money has been paid to the Associa
ton within the last three years 10
nothing. Everybody knows how The
fences and buildings were and al
kept. The Windsor County Sociel
ought to have as good start as othe
. societies in the County and out Of tn
County. Let them have it.
