A Stretch OF THE LATE SULLIVAN AND MILES
KNowLToN.
An event which rarely happens occurred
at West Wardsboro on Friday and Saturday,
Jan. 9TH and Gth-the burial of tho aged
brothers, Sullivan and Miles Knowlton. Still
more singular is the fact that the death of
each was caused by diseased foot. Sullivan
Knowlton was born in Templeton, Mass,
June 23d 1893. When between two and
three years of age he came with his parents
to Wardsboro and spent the rest of his life
in one school district. His father built
log house and settled on the place now owned
by Mason Sage, and lived in what was then
almost a wilderness He afterward built
part of the house now standing on the place.
There is also stone wall standing on the place
which Sullivan built when about Is years
old. He was married Jan. 80, 1917, to Isa-
bel Boyle -Four of their six children lived
to man and womannood, but two daughters
only survive him. His wife died April 2S,
1858. He first settled on the farm adjoining
his fathers, now occupied by f. f. Glazier.
lie sold that place to his brother Miles and in
the spring of 1927 moved on to the place
where he died. making over 80 years on the
same place. He was always a hard .working
man until about 60 years of age, when a case
of necrosis partly crippled his right hand
huu bO ulutl ulphlItu ulh blIbuklu luhl llt
gave up hard work He spent great deal
of time after that in reading, until about
three years age when his eyesight failed him.
About Aug. 20, 1882, his friends discovered
that something was the matter with his left
foot. This proved to be dry modification,
which brought death slowly but surely until
its work was completed at about nine o'clock
Thursday morning, jan 4th He was buried
on the 9th in the same yard where his broth
er was laid the day before.
Miles Knowlton was born in Wardsboro,
Jan. II, 1900, and spent the greater part of
his life in that town. He married Peddy
Jones, by whom he had FIVE children. Only
two sons, now living in Spencer, Mass, sur
vive him After the death of his first wife
he married Abigail Howard of Jamaica, who
died a few years later. The wife who sur
wives him was Mrs. Semira Bartlett of West
moreland, N. H. He lived on the farm
bought of his brother until the spring of
1859, when he sold it, One year later he
moved to Newfane, where he spent the rest
of his life. Sometime in March last a sore
broke out on his right foot. Physicians pro-
nounced it necrosis and wished to amputate
the diseased member. To this proposition
Mr. Knowlton objected, saying be would
rather go all together" For several months
the disease made but little progress and his
general health remained good but during
the last two months it spread rapidly until
death ended his suffering at a little past nine
O'Clock Tuesday evening, Jan. @ His re-
mains were brought to Wardsboro on the 9TH
and laid by the side of his companions and
one daughter.
Thirty couples attended the dance at
Stones hall Tuesday evening, and took sup
per at the Wardsboro house.
The 1O.cent supper given by the ladies'
aid society Thursday evening, at the vestry,

We always regret to chronicle the
removal of good citizen from
GAINESVILLE, and that regret was
never more truly felt than in max
ing the announcement that Mr..
Walter McComb will leave our
city and go into business in Nash
vile. He has severed his connec-
ton with the firm of McComb,
Hurst d Co, OF this place, and will
become partner in the wholesale
grocery house of Bailey & Davis,
Nashville. Mr.. McComb's part
ners were the purchasers of his in
terest and will continue the business
under the firm name of John Hurst
q Co. 1t would be a mere pIatitude
to say that Mr.. McComb's depart
ure would be Il serious loss to
GAINESVILLE; it is loss that OF
be readily estimated and one that
the city can lily sustain.
He was among the most active
and energetic of our wholesale mer-
chants and of that class of citizens
that give life. and enterprise to the
place In which they live. Socially
Mr.. McComb and his family will
be greatly missed in GAINESVILLE.
We also deeply regret to state
that Mr.. McComb will carry with
him to Nashville, Mr.. Harvey
HOgg, a young man of very supe-
rior business qualifications, who is
much liked and esteemed i'm this

We will only conclude with Civ
ing for the benefit of the ladies,
what arc considered by florists the
points Of a good single dahlia. The
disk should be broad, forming a
perfect circle and is usually lem n
yellow when the flower first opens
but gradually deepening to a bright
orange. The rays should be in
number eight, neither more nor less /;
oval i'm form, perfectly close on one
another, perfectly uniform in shape,
their further extremities forming
perfect circle. They should be uni
form in color, and, if variegated, the
pattern should be the same on all
eight of them.
We hope Mr.. Munro will continue
his efforts the returning to II type

dred seedlings two or three perfect

The Railroad

Work on the new railroad is
progressing as satisfactorily as could
be expected. Nearly two hundred
hands are at work and the bed has
been completed three miles. Tim
bers for the tre5tle work and bridge
over Red river have been gotten
out and placed at the point where
the bridge will be located. A tea
ture Of the progress made that gives
the work more of the appearance of
a sure enough railroad is the fact
that crosS-tieS have been scattered
along the completed bed. AS soon
as the bed has been finished for a
distance of ten or fifteen miles, or
probably less, track will be laid
and an engine and cars put to work.
An engine, cars and rails have been
ordered. These are the facts and
they are sufficient to quiet the evil
prophecies of the pessimists and put
u stop to the lies of the i'll wisherJ
of this good work. Cadiz Tele-
