ability like unto bis predecessors Of Golden
time ~
Mr.. Gutierson can il requested, give
some very interesting extracts from these
old books in regard TO the acts and doings
Of the stald and good old people OF An
dover long since gathered unto their faith
ers.
In addition to my wish to state to your
readers that "my people by Mr.. j. X.
Hutchinson still "ho.d on" to the "old
Squire Warner place. and are on the Sec
ond hundred years who has with him
younger brother about II years Of age, to
whom if health and will are given, it will
not pass out Of the family for a long time
yet. have a wish to call attention 70 the
good conduct and reputation of Ardover
las a people, and whoee example ought
to be followed always. j refer TO the fact
that the sale Of alcholic liquors is rot per-
mtted in Andover under any guse.
refer also with great pleasure To a fur
Their fact that at the last guberHstioual eluc-
ton Andover was unanimously republican.
The number of democratic votes cast on
that occasion is expressed in Waiton's Reg
lister with 1901" which Is abcut the Il, usl
number cast In that town on election days.
Democrats of the copperhead or secesh
strifi in that town are about as "scarCe Is
ht Ms teeth !"
ain well aware that "merited praise" is
due to other towns for like "good condu t"
and especially to the town OF Tinmuu In
Rutland couu y which cast at her last lee
ton an equally unanimous repub lean vote,
and the same nnmbor as was cast by An
dover. Tinmoulh has no rummely 10 town
of any sort. d. not mean that all demo-
Gratis drink rum, bat so far as my expert
ence goes where there is NO rum there are
few democrats If any BODY wishes to test
the truth of this suggestion, let him 'trav-
ell" and take census Of the rum hotels and
votaries those in our cities and larger towns
and he will be convinced that rum is Us
necessary to democracy, as straw was TO
the IsraeIies in Egypt 10 make brick.
Tinmoulh ard AndOver were settled by
sple.did set of inhabitants, mainly from
Connecticut who although dead, YET speak
and act wisely through their descendants.
II anybody has any doub;s let him study
the record of the descendants Of these
towEs, now refer more especially to Tin
mouth, as my mother was born in Andover.
and the place of my birth was in Chester
about ohe-iourth of mile from Andover
line. l have spent many happy days il
AndOver, have taught school in Andcver,
and last and not least my wife was born in
Andover, and the morning of our marriage
we started from her fathers house in An
dover | think a great deal Of A dover
because-because it is entirely loyal and re-
publican and has contained and now con-
tainc so many good people. | am perhaps
too much interested to be n reliable wit
ness. Some may suggest that AndOveT
and Tinmouth are small towns. This is
true, by Legislature, and not by nature. The
legislature male AndOver into two towns,
Weston and Andover, and the legislature
made three towns out OF Tinmouth, to wit:
Tinmouth. Walling:ord, and Midoletown,
and no one could expect large towns after
dividing them up in this way but small
"a these towns ar NJ other towns in the
state can show such long continued fdeh y
to principle as can these two towns. May
other towns take knowledge and do ke-
wise. Peace and prosperity attend AN
dover and Tinmo1th In behalf of the
right, | am respectfully,
MoERIs II. CooK,
