Mr.. Moore, of the firm of Baker &
Moore, has moved his family into the
house recently vacated by II. E. Harris,
who has gone to Pennington, N. H.,
where he has leased a new hotel. Harris
will please the travelling people who may
favor him with their patronage.
G. C Bagley has leased the carriage
shop in Farr & Co.'S. new shop former.
y occupied by J. A. Sewell, Mr. Sewell
having moved into the shop vacated by
II. D. Brown. We were much in need of
good carriage maker in town. We have
no doubt but B ,gley will succeed, he APP
pe.ring to he of the right stamp.
DIR. Doty hdd severe puilback about
We, k or ten days ago, mis- friends feeling
very anxious rs to the final result. We
are pleased to be able to report him much

George jenkins OF the Bradford marble
works is on the sick list. DR.. Paine at.
tends him. Also A P Blrber, workman

DIR. ,ine attends him.
Auctions seem TO have been the order of
the day in our village during the past
week, there having been one Of more every
day nearly for week-John B Pecke t.,
Esq, doing the selling. By the way, if
any one is in want of good auctoneer
that can sell goods, it would be for their
interest to secure his services. For three
half days he hammered away upon the
odds and ends of the goods belonging to
some four or five generations at the house
recently vacated by DR.. w. H. Carter,
realizing quite little fortune for the next
generation, Some way Mr.. Pickett seems
to turn everything he handles into money.
We notice lots of auction bills now posted
his name attached as auctoneer. 1t is q
wonder to some how he can run his large
business and find so much time to help
others. What he does he does we'll
whether it be conducting his large lumber
and grain trade, farming or selling goods
under the hammer.
H. E. Parker of Lisbon, N. H., has
purchased the two Opinions in this place
Mr.. Parker puts in steam press anC
without doubt will make the uniteC
Opinion one of The best papers in Vermont
We wish him and his associate, Mr.
Pringle, success. 1t will be pleasant for the
friends of both papers to know that al
differences are settled and that there is t.
be good live paper come up from thu
ruins of their old friends, Bradford Opinion
and Stanton's Bradford Opinion.
We notice Dr. NJ. L. Paine, who ha'
been with DR.. Doty during the past few
months, has hung out his sign over tn
bank, having decided to remain in tow
and take his chance with the others. Tn
doctor is well posted in medicine, and
he had little more self,esteem, withou
doubt would succeed. We understand h
is getting full his share of the business s
far.
Mrs. Mary E. Purple entertained
fair audience at town hall, on Wednesda,
evening, with select readings. Mrs. Pur
pie is very fine reader, ever pleasing tn
people whenever she reads, as proof c
which we noticed the town hall Saturda
evening, when she read again by reques
was crowded to its utermost capacity.
We are having various entertainment
Turing the fall evenings, but we have nc
-pnce to note them.
Fred KENYON, our popular barber, Ia
h en- confined to his house for some ~
P weeks with rheumttism. The shagg

cannot easily be dispensed with,
