BERT BRADFORD DROWNED AT fwEsT
BUXTON.
[From our Regular Correspondent
Bert Bradford, a young man, aged %
years, who worked for Fred Wells, Esq,
was drowned Tuesday evening
at the boom. Many people think
that it was case of suicide,
as he had been very Respondent of late
and had frequently spoken of such an
act; but little attention was paid to such
remarks; SO Tuesday evening about eight
o'clock he and companion went to the
boom for bath. After removing his
clothes, he went to the extreme end of
the logs, where the water was about
fifteen feet deep, hesitated a moment
and turned to his companion and said
that he dreaded it, and then jumped in
to the water, He could not swim. His
body was recovered.

Mr.. j. W. Grant of Lyman, had his
enclosure near the barn, on Saturday
night, the 9th inst, and very poor one
left in it's stead. He traced the horse to
South Marlborough, and there lost all
trace of it. Fortunately, Mr.. Grant is
not poor man, but the want of the
horse Just at this season of the year is
specially hard to bear. He has little
hope of recovering the horse.
Farmers have begun haying in earnest,
these hot days being specially favorable
for their work. They report the crop
about one-quarter less than last year,
but the excellent quality will make up for
the loss in quantity.
The apple crop does not promise to be
abundant; possibly about an average.
Blueberries are shipped in considera-
BILE quantities to Boston. The crop will
be about an average. They retail here
