II Is with deep sorrow that We an
nouncc this morning the death Of
Charles Chapman, which occurred at
his residence at 10 O'Clock last evening,
Mr.. Chapman was one Of our most
widely known and respected citizens,
and his death Is u terrible blow
TO his family aud tho community.
For nearly half century he has been
In business here rs druggist, and II is
safe to say that there was no one In
the State that understood the business
better, Everybody had faith in what
they got at "Chapmon's," and well
they might. In town affairs he took
an active part, and in council and in
Office always showed II clear head, and
on honest heart. lilo was u kind hus-
band, an indulgent father, and warm
friend, and his memory will long be
kept grceu in the hearts Of those who
knew him best. II is not very easy to
see why he should be taken from his
friends and the community at this time
yet,
God never does nor suffers to be done,
But that which We would wish,
Could we but see,
The end Of all events as well as He.
We have only time, before going to
press, to make these few hasty remarks,
but are in hopes to be able to say more
about this distinguished citizen in n
future issue Of this paper. lie was 81
years of age.
Services will not be resumed in the
Univcrsalist church until one week from
next Sunday, Oct. 8.

fold Republican is in town to "do up"
the Fair for that great moral organ,

newspaper man, considering his expe-

strong point, but the jokes he gets off
oil, those jokes-why some of them
were ragged when the pyramids were
young.-They say Hartland bears off

Fair.-Several Woodstock boys from
abroad are in attendance at the Fair,
among them Ed. Abbott, printer, of
Rutland.-''Dix" is constant reader

dumped, without injury, and the horse
cut cross lots back to the stable. Dam. /
