represents the great general in the

to contemplate, and not as the grand
man and the hero ut the head of his
army. 1t was when Washington, after
the Revolutionary war. was TRAVELLING
through Connecticut .and visited Hart
ford, staying ut Bulls tavern there. A
boy came into the kitchen of the tavern
and said: Il want to see Gen. Wash.
ington.
The functionary on duty did not
propose to let any boy see Gen. Wash.
ington merely for tie asking and said
as much.
"But have a note for him." re.
monstrated the boy
From whomp
My father. Chief Justice Els

note and said to the boy: your faith

The world famous Endicott pear

on the ancient orchard farm at Dan

Tradition has it that 1850 was the date

Endicott did not break up the ground
for his orchard until 1858. There is
no doubt, however. of the great
antiquity of the pear tree. and that it

That all we ask is that

When on any patriotic occasion it becomes
necessary to state precisely what the CIVIL
war meant, what it was fought for, what il
accomplished if that be the waving of the
bloody Shirt then let the bloody shirt b'
nailed to the masthead" All of which
shows that Mr. Depew believes with ex Gov

by which republican victory can be gained
next November is the vigorous waving o
the ersanguined garment.
