REMARKS BY GoyEuSoR PROCTOR
At the close of the address Colonel Mead called
upon Governor Proctor, who made "a few very in
teresting remarks. He said he was Windsor
county man, and owned the old homestead in the
southern part of the county His partner was an
Ohio man, and often used to laugh at him for the
confidence he had in men from the /" east side OF
the mountain" lie would always hire every
man who came from Windsor county. In the
fulness of time his partner married. and who
should he win but Windsor county "school-
marin" Now he does not laugh at the confidence
he has in Windsor county people lie said that

but II good state to live in Nowhere else could
be found such sterling integrity of character. such
beautiful scenery and such healthy air He
wanted the farmers to improve in all possible
ways. and keen Vermont what IL ALWAYS has
been--the best state in the Union,
