ton. During the little more than two
years he has lived here, he has car

1000 pounds of wool manufactured

cd of. Mr.. SWEET has sold in all
S26,275 worth of goods and real es-
tate. Mrs. SWEET has carried on the
millinery business satisfying her
customers and making financial
success of it. During their remain
ing with us, they have gained many
friends, who wish them success in
their new home, but feel sorry to
have them 60 away. They have
been very liberal, giving much to the
poor and helping in rebuilding the

olent enterprise. We congratulate
the Enosburgh people on their new
merchant aud milliner, but we don't
care to spare any more of this kind
