 W. H. Champlin has entered the firm of W. E. Truesdell & Co.,, of Burnside, Conn.,, and is now moving his household goods, and will soon cease to be resi-. dent here. The firm carries a general line Of goods, has good connections, and is doing large business. MT. Champlin's excellent business capacity will find ample scope in his new business. The members and friends of Wolcott Lodge, to the number of sixty or seventy, gathered in the Spiritual Hall last eve ming for social. After selections from the orchestra the real purpose of the gath ering developed itself which was to say a formal goodbye to their neighbor and friend and brother, W. H. Champlin. In few we'll chosen words the chaplain oi the lodge, Rev. T. c. Druley, presented to Brother Champlin testimonial of the high regard the lodge had for him as a man., citizen and neighbor, of their
 
 helpfulness in the lodge room, of their high appreciation of his work and services as master. This testimonial was in the form of past masters jewel of solid gold. It was pinned on Brother Champlin's breast by the master, F. J. Glover. Mir. Champlin was utterly surprised, but man. aged to find words enough to show. that the gift was most highly appreciated, and he wishes your correspondent to make known in this way his heartfelt gratitude to Wolcott Lodge for this proof of their fraternal regard. The company then sat down to the usual bountiful Stafford SUD- per, and the evening closed with an hours social dance.
