JARVIS BARTLETT.

The hardy pioneers of northeastern
Vermont are lessened by one, in the
death of this well known and highly
esteemed citizen, which occurred in
this village on Thursday last, MAY %, }
at the residence of his youngest son,
Alvin Bartlett, Esq, in the eighty-tifth
year of his age.
Mr.. Bartlett was a native of Straf-
ford Conn, In 1906 or 7, when about
twelve years old, his father, Mr.. Chris
topher Bartlett, moved his family to
| Vermont, and settled in the town of
Morgan, on what is now known as the
John Elliot farm, little southwest
from Morgan FOur-cornors, and on the
shore of Seymore lake. When the fam
lily came from Connecticut, they tray
eled from Wells River, VT, with an OK
team, going by the way Of West Derby
and Derby, to Holland, and then by a
bride path through the woods to their
future home in Morgan.
Mr. Christopher Bartlett sfamily was
the second one in town, that of a Mr..
Wilcox, grandfather of Mr.. Ceylon
Wilcox, who lives on the old Wilcox
farm, about 10 miles north of Morgan
Corner, being the first. There from
the midst of an unbroken wilderness,
they proceeded to hew themselves out
home.
The stories of those early days, Of the
first settlers of Vermont, of their hard
ships and privations, of their struggles
to win from rugged soil a scanty live
lihood, and of their danger from the
wild animals, whose homes they were
invading; as they fall from the lips Of
one who saw and experienced it all,
are more enchanting than fiction.
When Mr.. Bartlett's family. came to
Morgan there were no roads in town.
To get to West Derby, the nearest mill,
they We're obliged to go roundabout
way through Holland, on foot or horse
back, making a two days journey of
what is now accomplished in a few
hours.
When Mr.. Jarvis Bartlett became of
age he married Miss Rebecca Morse, a
sister of Mr.. Clark Morse of this village,
and of Mrs. Warren Mansur, of
Charleston, and set to work to "clear
up" a farm for himself, on the farm
southeast of Morgan Corners, where
he passed all the rest of his active life,
and where his family of five children
were born and reared, three of whom
Mrs. Ceylon Wilcox, John M. Bartlett,
ESQ, of Baldwin, Wis, and Alvin
Bartlett, Esq, Of this place, survive
him.
Like many of those who clear up new
farms, Mr.. Bartlett was doomed to be
disappointed in his land. His fathers
farm proved to be cold and wet, to
avoid which he made choice of q lot on
the high point Of land extending into
Seymore Lake, between Morgan Cor
ners and the. Sand Beach. This was
dry enough but rough and rocky,
Still with that honest, patient indus
try and close economy which distin-
guished themen of his day, he won
from his hard soil, comfortable sup
port for his family, and modest COM
petence for his own maintenance in
his declining years.
In early life Mr.. Bartlett identified
himself with the Congregational
Church in Morgan, and was always a
devoted and consistent member of it..

We call attention to a communica-
ton elsewhere in our columns from a
Lunenburg correspondent, relative to
the sanitary condition of things in the
vicinity Of a school house in that
town. simultaneously with this comes
from Newark, an account of a like,
but much more serious condition of
things, resulting in the prostration of q
whole school, and the death of many.
Both these circumstances coming to
notice at the same time, in this season
of the year, and the localities being so
widely separated as to preclude the
idea Of the one having any tendency
to bring the other to notice, is very
suggestive of the startling nature of
these developments. We go to press
too soon after the receipt of this intel
ligence, to enable us to discuss to our
readers, the nature and terrible conse-
quonces of this lax and terribly negli.
gent condition Of things, or to point
out what occurs to us the means which
should be adopted to preserve the
health of % community, and save the
lives annually of hundreds of little in
nocents. This we shall endeavor to dc

The second prisoner tried at Polio,
Court this morning created considsrsbl.
excitement when he announced his
name. Tho first half was Psrdinando
and that went through all right, both
the Chief and Squire O'Neill who pre-
sided At the hearings getting it bssuti-
fuliy, but when he announced the last
half there was troubls. The Chief
tackled it first and after he had thrown
both jaws out of place, the Squire
sackled 1t, aud about sixteen syllablss
OF that dignitary's richest and purest
orosue were rolled over towards the un-
fortunate prisoner, before the squirs's
pronouncing apparatus caved iu. Fl
nslly it was decided that "Ferdinando
balialrenary" was about as near the
thing as the necessities OF the law de.
manded, and the Squire concluded to
run him on that anyhow.
The charge against the prisoner was
that Of threatening to kill Raphael
LuChina. Raphael testified that ths
aecused had COME to his store at Sixth

Of liquor, and had abused him very
much Mrs L1China eorroborated her
