A Citizen Of Years.

Col Daniel Snow of this village, says the
Skowhegan Reporter, can say what few men
in the State of Maine can saw. He lived on
one farm in Skowhegan, on the Middle road
4 miles down river, nearly S4 years. He was,
horn ON the farm and resided there until one
wear ago, when he came to this village TO
reside with his son, Geo. E. Snow. Col. 5.
i. IS wears old and has had an active. pros
nervous business career as kennebec lum-
herman aud farmer. He has spent Al winters
in the lumber woods and speaks with ANNA
tiou of the destinations of the lumber ousl-
ness. which all true woodsmen feel, so that,
once they get into the business, they remain
in il until advanced years drive them out OF
il He says that there is but one other man
in town that has lived as long as himself In
one place. Captain Macmillan Jewetf, VINO
now occupies the farm he was born on IN the
same neighborhood as his old home.
Col Snow has been unwell since January,
the result of a severe cold, but is now able
TO walk about the village. His health mas
always been remarkably good, with scarcely
a sick day in his long life. He takes keen
interest in the affairs of to-day and depre-
Gates the agitations'that had such unfavoraoie
eff ect upon the business of the year.
