G. A. r. orders, and was SO closely
identified with the business interests
of the town and vicinity that the fun

from Fred Kimball of Boston on Sat-
urday last. Mr.. Kimball is a son of
the late r. NJ. Kimball, who for many
years was a prominent citizen in this
village. Moving from here some yrs.
ago, Fred was put to school in Boston
and developed a taste for, and receiv-
ed thorough instruction in, engineer
ing, mechanics and electricity as APP
piled to electric lighting and motor
purposes. He soon became skilled in
these lines and is at present an cleo
trical engineer under generous salary
from the Thompson-H and Ed
ison light companies now combined.
Mr.. Kimball of late has been planning
the electrical apparatus for the great
plant that is being put in on the Win
ooski river near Burlington for sup
plying that city with light and cleo
trio dynamo power. We are more
than pleased to note Mr.. KimbalPs
success. He is spending few days
here with his wife among friends and
relatives.
