fresh figs, grapes, oranges, apples, pears,

quite a good many frosty mornings, but
they did no injury to plants, except for

10TH VERMONT REGIMENT.

A joint meeting for conference was held
at the Brooks House yesterday of the eX-
ecutive committee and the monument COM
mittee of the 10th Vermont Regiment as
ISOLATION. The members present were
Hon. Hugh Henry of Chester, 5. A. Smith
and George II. Burns of Brattleboro, c.
NJ. Russell of Wilmington, NJ. II. Bush of
Boston and A. p. Childs of Bennington.
The business in hand was to consider
means for raising the necessary funds for
the erection of monument to mark the
position of the regiment on the Gettys-
burg battlefield. Several designs were
submitted. The one practically decided
upon consists of large block or boulder
of rough granite with Union shield upon
its face, and upon the shield the First
Corps badge. The cost of this monument
will be $1,000. OF this sum 500 has been
raised, and the surviving members of the
regiment will be appealed to to subscribe
the balance 1t is the wish of the commit
tee to have the monument completed in
season for its dedication at the time of the
next national Grand Army encampment,
which is to be held in Washington in Sep
TENDER, 1892.
