Mr.. G. H. Cleaveand, of Barnard,
Windsor county, VT, contributes to the
Woodstock Standard a notable chapter
of vital sta istics. 1t comprises a list Of
one hundred and fourteen persons, who
have reached the age of four score years
or more, IN that town, out of population
of less than 1900, during the last quarter
OF acentury. Ninety persons have died
IN Barnard whose ages aggregate 1882
wears. One has died at the age of 100
yeals and 4 months; two at 9S years ; one
at 81; TWO at 9B one a. 81; two at 90; two
at 81; three At 90 and 81 ut ages between
81 aud W. Eight persons, four men and
four women, are now living in Barnard
whose ages range from So to 80 years.
These lures go far to make good the
saying of Moses h. Cheney, that II the
healthlulness Of II town was good rea-
son for locating the Stale house there, it
should be located at Barnard. because
people never die there. Mr. Cleaveland
says that his town sis in no way different
from the. towns around except III the
amount of snow that falls there and the
'lenRth OF time it stays" but the Barnard
people certainly are Il long lived race,
