Mr.. ]. L. Battles, the new landlord at
the Red Lion Inn, is making friends with
all he meets. He impresses us as being
just the man we want in the hotel to sue
coed Mr.. Morse. He has had eighteen
years experience in the hotel business and
understands il thoroughly. We hope that
all our people will take hold and help in
m king the Red Lion even more popular
than before. No change will be made in
price either to towns people or to tran
sients, and no pains viii be spared by Mr..
Battles to make the hotel deservedly pop
ular. The Argus had pleasant word for
him last week: 1.-The change in landlords
at the Red Lion Inn was quietly effected
last Thursday morning, Col. X. W. Morse
retiring and J. l.. Battles, formerly of St.
Adams, taking charge. During the many
years that Mr.. Battles has been in the no.
tel business, and especially as clerk of the
American House, st. Adams, which place
ne left 70 assume his present position, he
has won an enviable reputation, and has
secured large following of representative
travelling men. 1t is his purpose to keep
up the first class reputation that the Red
Lion now enjoys, and every appearance
indicates that he will do just that thing"
