THE TOWNS AROUND.
EAST HARDWICK.

Joseph Robinson Delano died at his
home in this town yesterday, June 81 +,
at the age of 65 years. Mr.. Delano
was born in Hardwick, May L, 1920
where he spent most of his life. He
was clerk in the store of Strong 81
Delano until Mr.. Strong's death, when
he entered the firm as partner with his
father. In August, .1948, he married
Jane Vincent and in SO they removed
to Boston, where he was in the COM
mission business until 1867, when he
returned to Hardwick where his home
has since been. For the past 20 years
he has lived on, the home farm at the
"Street," and has also been a member
of the lumber and manufacturing firm
of Tolman, Simpson & Co., at Green's
boro Bend. Mr.. Delano has held some
town offices having been selectman of
Hardwick for several terms. Both Mr..
and Mrs. Delano united with the Con-
gregatiOnalist church at East Hard
wick in 1853. Some years ago Mr..
Delano's health and eyesight began to
fail, and for the past few months he
has been nearly blind still his cour-
age and energy was such that he would
not give up Iife's activities and as late
as the county conference June 6, he
was present having driven down from
his home. In business and social re-
lati ons Mr.. Delano will be greatly
missed. He was man of warm i'm
pulses, strong convictions, a perfect
gentleman in his intercourse with men
and one whose individuality and
strength of character impressed all who
met him. His last illness was called
Bright's disease, and although an ex-
treme sufferer he was very patient
and submissive. He leaves a widow
and daughter, Florence NJ, and a
son, Walter l.. Delano, and wide
circle of friends to mourn his death.

ed last Sunday morning at about 10

is thought it was struck by lightning.

GUILFORD'S SENSATION.
\ Much Postponed Case Meets Another
 Postponement.


 Postponement.
 Guilford's great sensational case of Ben ton vs Starr was set down for trial yester- day, but was again postponed through the efforts of defendants counsel, Attorneys Allen and Newton, who claimed that an important witness, Edward Munson, was ill and could not be present. Messrs Ar vine and Zacher for tbe plaintiff, insisted that the case be tried, alleging that Nun son does not appear, as a suit is now pend ing against him for islander. The plain tiff in this case is the father of Miss Fanny Benton, the paternity of whose child is charged upon the defendant, Deacon John Starr, who is the most prominent man in Guilford, pillar of the church, and who has at one time and another during his 65 years of life held about every position of trust and emolument within the gift of his townsmen. He is wealthy and said to have overcome Miss Benton's scruples when she was but F years of age by pres ents of money. The Bentons are poor, and have been anxious to have the case tried, but counsel for the defense have again and again obtained postponements. The trial is now set down for July 26, when the defense must proceed whether they are ready or not.

Some of the things we do for the improvement of Trade; keep only First-C Class Pianos and Or gans. known everywhere as Standard Goods. We sell them at the lowest possible prices and most favorable terms. Weber, Shoninger, Emerson X Wheelock are our leaders any one of which will in every way give satisfaction and prove source of joy in any family. Among the things do not do is this: Never annoy people. who not ready to buy, or lie about our neighbors goods, but are willing to accord all fair valuation in the market Neither do we run after customer who has purchased of other agents, trying to make them dissatisfied, and are yet liberal enough not to do all the Business. No Miniature Pianos carried in our pockets Tuning Ham, mers thrown in. We prefer the principle of every farmer to his milk cans, and mechanic to his trade and have yet a friendly, feel manage our own business honestly, fairly and le- ultimately: pay dollar for dollar promptly; fur niSh our own Bank Vaults for Leases taken from Installment Customers without the aid of Sher- ifs to collect on the same. Thirty years standing before the people as a Company, is sufficient guarantee of our stability. Those Shoninger New Style Upright Pianos are elegant in design and finish. We make them and get the price way down; Warrant them irst-class. All the rest of the dealers are blowing about them, which proves that they are A No 1, otherwise abuse would be necessary.
