HENRY W .,sTEvENs STILL LIVES.
During the past week Franklin and Orleans
counties have been pretty thoroughly per
meated by the report that Henry W. Stevens
of johnson, the long time and deservedly
popular travelling salesman for c. ii. Cross
& Son, bakers and confectiOners of Montpel-
Ter, had died with pneumonia. The story
was received with an almost unanimous eX-
preston of sorrow. for no one who ever met
Henry failed to find in him a friend. That
the report was utterly without foundation
the following letter dated at Montpelier Apr
80 is the best evidence:
, In the language of the immortal Webster
81 still live.' was in Franklin county last
week and found the report had been cireu-
, lated all through that section for several
: DAYS that was dead. | think | am in 20
: sition to contradict it. | cannot conceive
how the report started /; think l must have
been COMPOUNDED with some one else.
The foregoing of course settles the question
and the Messenger joins with his friends al
over the state in hearty expression o
pleasure and the hope that he may live TO
{ many years, and that his shadow may new
er grow less.-St. Adams Messenger.
