 Stafford grange meets next Tuesday evening.
 Mrs. Melicent B. Kinney, whose death was announced last week, was daughter of David Marcy, of Holland, Mass. born May 24, 1918, and was married to Horace Kinney March 24, 1889. Four children blessed this union, all of whom preceded her to the other life. Mrs. Kinney was | woman of rare domestic virtues, genial | and hospitable, her greatest happiness being found in the home circle, caring for the loved ones and making it all that name implies. She was never connected with any church organization. but was a firm believer in the continuity of life after the change called death. A devoted wife and mother, she will be sadly missed by her companion, who survives her, and he has the heartfelt sympathy of the entire community in his bereavement.

 Staffort1ville.
 Rain interfered materially with the proposed republican demonstration at Stafford and Staffordville on Friday even- ing. Only about one third of the expect ed number of men brayed the tempo st., and mackintoshes, rubber boots and um- brellas were much in order. At Stafford the rain fall prevented any march, but the procession of we'll illuminated wagons drove past the brilliantly illuminated houses and cheers responded to cheers. 1t was well towards ten o'clock when the wagons drove into Staffordville, but the | people were here on the alert, the win- dows ablaze and a line of torch bearers in readiness for escort. An intermission in the rainfall permitted a hurried march through the streets, with enthusiastic greetings from the people. Hot coffee and doughnuts were welcome round up to the march at the church, a heavy rain fall having set in just as the march was concluded. -..5.s West Stafford.
