Winter still fingers, and seems 10th
to bid us good-by.
The Manchester stage was four hours
coming from Peru to this village, last
Saturday, the snow being so soft it
made the travelling very bad.
Col. G. W. Hooker and family of
Brattlcboro, were guests of A. A.
Curtis, last Thursday.
Mr.. Corbet Tarbell is in town visit
ing his children. We wonder if there
is another man, of his age, in the coun-
ty as spry and lively as he.
Londonderry was very creditably
represented at the Normal school at
Castleton, about four years ago, by E..
f. Arnold, who completed three years
course of study in twelve months. Who
can do better?
Felt Brothers could not work in their
shop last week on account of low water.
A. A. Curtis is not running his mill for
the same reason, but the prospect is
good for a plentiful supply ere long.
We understand that Mr.. Pratt of
Weston, talks of hiring the blacksmith
shop in this village.
Mr.. Patterson has taken possession
Of the hotel.
The chief topic of conversation O.
mong the farmers. just now is sugaring.
They compare notes and talk over the
prospects of the season to their hearts
content. We wish them grand success.
A lady asks if some one can tell her
what causes the leaves on her gerani-
ums turn red and in a few days with
err and die? 1t seems to be disease,
affecting only the smooth leaved varie-
ties, but it does its work rapidly, and
seems to be contagious, for if one plant
is effectd others, of the collection are
sure to follow. 1t is very discourage
ing after one has cared for their plants
all winter, and such o winter as this,
to see the leaves turning and falling off
when they ought tobe in blossom.
Another correspondents sends us the
following:
Mr.. Pratt, of Weston, who has for
the last few years carried on the black
smithing business, in the old Sterling
shop in Weston, has leased the Hay
ward shop in this village, and will be-
gin business at once. We think we
have blacksmith now worthy of pat
ronage.
L. P. Sheldon and family arrived
home from Chicago, last Saturday eve
ming, and we arc all glad to see them a.
gain and hope they will find their home
the best place after all.

EARLY RECOLECTIONS OF
LONDONDERRY.

The Parson we'll remembers when
there was but three houses and one
small barn, together with mill stand
ing where now the Londonderry post
Office is located. The post Office was
first situated on Stowcll hill, Dea. Lu-
thGr Stowell =. NJ. The first public
house in the village was on the mill
yard nearly opposite the present hotel.
Sufficient land was purchased of uncle
Joe, the miller, on which to build the
house with l. and make well. No
spare land back or front Entering the
front door and turning to the right
would admit one to the grocery and bar
rooms. This room extended across this
building, turning to the left was found
the ladies parlor, sitting and dining
room, all in one; while small kitchen
back. served as cook room and family
escort. The l. was occupied AS she'd,
stable &c, while the basement of stable
was located the tcn-pin alley.
The house was one and l-2 story, and
IN the upper rooms the guests were car
cd for the night. At the corner of the
bo, sc a post was erected, on which
svrng sign, inscribed L. Hcwes' Inn
wh;,o ovor t,,'" door was the word Gro
oo,.;os An tho '"aycl west at that time
was obliged to pass that way.
The house still rema u p.ii may
have since been enlarged. 1 us was
the first grocery store, hotel u" private
house combined that the writer 'hl'le''-
bers of visiting. And to Leman aH"-
cs should be given credit of selling th>'
first groceries in Londonderry. Nort
village. ;
The next man who commenced trade !
ut this place was john Emerson. He !
sold dry goods also groceries, both wet
and dry. His store was located where
Mr.. Curtis now occupies: and it was
here that not a few neil while boys took
their first glass. In those early days,
the rum traffic was carried on in most
of the stores where groceries were
sold.
The first intoxicated man the writer
of seeing was at this place.
Niles Aldrich was successor to John
Emerson but he took 10 stock in wet
groceries. PARSoS.

LINES IN MEMORY.
We knew he must leave us, when day after day.
We his noble form wasting slowly away
His light step faltered, yet he gazed
With fondness all he held dear
He has gone. 1t seems like a vain empty dream,
Like something unknown and unseen,
1t seems that when summer in brightness shall come
That dear cherished form will again visit home
Then comes to our hearts the sad thought.
He has gone to that bourne where no travellers can
return.

CHOLERA.

There has been at least one death
from Asiatic cholera in St. Louis
Wolf Pinkner, a Russian peddler, who
brought the germs Of the disease, it is
thought, from New Orleans.
We do not wish to be sensational, OF
to raise unnecessary alarm, but we de-
sire to do our duty by Lafayette coun-
ty and its people, and, therefore, we
warn them that there is no time to be
lost in taking sanitary precautions, es-
pecially in the towns, some OF which,
as we shall endeavor to show next
week. are regular breeding places for
the disease.
No red tape, rrocrastinations care
l~essness or apathy will do in this mat
ter-it is one of life and death.
A case or two of cholera in q large
city at this season of the year need not
create anything like panic, butt should
