After glancing over the article on
the second page of this issue, concern
ing toll bridges, our sporting editor"
related his experience in that cOnnec-
ton at North Stratford the other day.
He says: "While waiting for the game
of base ball to be played, another
Island Pond man and | thought we
would take look at the new saw-mill
on the Vermont side of the river. We
went into ST Tibbetts' and left our
overcoats and started for the mill. AS
we approached the covered bridge we
noticed a long pole swinging down
directly across the street in front of us
We thought it u little inpolite, to say
the least, to place distractions in the
way of visitors, but concluded it must
be some new style of greeting strang-
ers, so we walked up and were just
going to pass under the rod when a
fine-looking, elderly man came out of
u house on the butt end of the pole
md informed us that we must each
pay one cent or stay in the Granite
State. We expostulated-we plead
with him. We told him that we were
not Vanderbilt and Gould but only
Stevens, the printer, and Pr, a
railroad clerk; that we just came
down in boX-car and had only %
cents between us. Finding that didn't
work we clustered We denounced
him and his bridge as u bloated mon
opoly; we threatened to start ferry
and give every passenger chrome
Finally we offered him three cents fol
the round trip for two, but it was nc
go. lie was firm and unyielding Us 8
rcck But we got even with him. W.
paid him two cents, went over anC
saw the saw-mill, mo pun,) and wen
back over the Grand Trunk bridge
The old gent came out and holleret
that that wasn't highway, but M
friend told him that he had some in
terest in that bridge, owing to his i'm
portant connection with the railroad
and 50 we got back all right, Late
in the day we heard the toll man tell
ing how a tramp printer and som
other Ioafer beat him out of tw,
! cents
