EDITOR CHRoNIcLE-Dea' Sir. We
take pleasure in reporting that on the oc'
cssion the Baptist Sunday-Scho excur-
sion to Cedar Beach last Wednesday Mr.;
Harrington, the proprietor of the hotel
extended 10 us the free use Of his house
and that during the presence Of the Sun

allowed to be seen on or near the premises;
We regard this as an act to be appreciated
and encouraged by all people who desire
the so5riety and virtue of the rising gen
Grafton, especially of those who as othceTs
and teachers of Sunday Schools should
realize the incongruity and mischiel OF
the drinking practice being thrust IN I'm .ne

exists one of the lowest dens of vice that
can be found i'll the State. Here the thieves
bring their plumber every Saturday night
after y o'clock, divide their spolls and
celebrated their success with licentiOus
colored women, men and cheap whiskey
until sunrise un Sabbath morning 1t is
time that this den of iniquity and vice
should be broken up, and 1t is the duty OF
the town authorities to take some action
on the matter at once. Your correspon-
dent had an occasion to visit the locality
in which this institution is situated one
Saturday night of very recent date, When
his attention was attracted by curses, ,yells
and the most Wi gar expressions that ever
came from the lips of human beings
Curiosity led linn to an investigation and
on going around to the back of the build
ing he found an old rickety door leading
into the room where the inmates were
holding a drunken reyel. Looking under
am old delapidated bedstead standing III
one corner Of the room your correspon-
dent saw no less than a half dozen large
hens that these midnight raiders had
taken from some farmers poultry house
while he slumbered.-Milford letter IN

The pest.hole referred to above has been
broken up and the crowd, one aud all,
have gone to parts unknown. Two OF
these peopIe came to Milford about two
weeks ago from Dover and when these
two white women came and cast
their lot with the Bodines and their crowc
