now just about one year since she was
compelled by the progress of that fell
disease, consumption, which had fasten-
ed itself upon her, TO resign her posi-
ton as teacher in the graded school.

the decline and during portion of the
time great sufferer. But during this
whole time she was cheerful and even
happy. Her connection with the schools
brought her into relations with the peo-
pie and especially the children, which
caused her noble qualities of mind and
heart TO be appreciated, and she was
accordingly loved as but few are. She
seemed to be at home in the schoolroom
aud among children, and the dozen or
moro years which she spent in the
school room, about four of them in

week Thursday, and received the sacra-
ment as she lay upon her sick bed 4.

thy is felt throughout the community,

w. Ostiguy Il Co., are putting on q

Mr.. Woodford Ostiguy has pur-
chased one acre of land on Main street
ofthe Rutland Marble Company; con-
sideration $50; upon which he Is now
moving his horse barn from the rocks
back of his house.
Business is lively at the Junction

lime are weekly shipped to different
parts of the state and New York; from
20 TO 80 calves and cattle, and several
hundred pounds of butter are also ship

-Markum, head section man on the
Port Henry railroad, has purchased one
half acre of land on Railroad street, of
the Rutland Marble Company, paying
therefor one hundred dollars. Also a
large barn, 30x40, of the Brandon Lime
Il Marble Co., and moved il on the
same.
The farmers throughout the town
have finished sowing, and nearly all
have finished planting potatoes, of which
large quantity have been put in.
They are now preparing the land for
corn. Vegetation advanced rapidly un-
til this dry, cold weather commenced,
which, if IL continues, will make things
as backward as last year.
"A few days since, as the workmen
on the lime works were taking their
hours novIiiuy, they were discussing
their strength and power of lifting
heavy weights. One of them wagered
sum of money that he could lift a 400
pound cask of lime and place it upon
another standing upon the end. The
wager being taken, an adjournment was
made to the lime depot. The powerful
man spread himself and tried, and with
all his boosted power he could not even
raise the cask from the floor; not only
losing tho bet, but had to come down q
little i'll his estimate of his strength.
