| field which are now for the first time recalled
Not the least so is one in which Vermont is con-
spicuous figure. 1t seems that in 1851, Chester
A. Arthur, now the Republican candidate for
vice-president, then fresh from Union College,
came to North Pownal, Vermont, and taught, for
one summer, the village school. About two years
later, James A. Garfield, then young student at
| Williams College, several miles distant in order
| to obtain the necessary means to defray his ex-
penses while pursuing his studies, came also to
North Pownal, and established writing school in
the same room formerly occupied by Mr.. Arthur,
|
winter evenings. Thus from common starting
point in early life after the lapse of more than
quarter OF century, these distinguished men
are, by the action of the Chicago convention,
brought into close relationship before the nation,
and their names placed side by side on the same
political ticket.
| A story told by Professor Brainerd, for many
years examiner in the patent Office here, but re-
Gently deceased, is significant, and conveys use
full moral for the rising generation The profess
