While engaged in handling logs about
his premises last week, Holton 5. Annis
met with painful accident. In some way
the iron bar he was using caught under
rolling log and struck him severe blow
diagonally across his face, crushing his
check bone and knocking out several
teeth. While Mr.. Annis' injuries are quite
serious, he was fortunate in escaping
worse ones. This mishap to our worthy
selectman should serve as warning to all
town officers that "log rolling" is danger
GUS business.
Mrs. Luther Ramsdell died at the home
of John Eastman in Washington last week
Wednesday, OF smallpox. Mrs. Ramsdell
had recently arrived from the West and 1t
is supposed that she contracted the dis
ease somewh here on the way. Dr.Smith OF
this town and DR.. Bradley of Barre attend
ed her. AS quite an extensive "scare" has
been created in this vicinity, we deem it
proper to state that the health officers OF
both Washington and Chelsea have taken
all possible precautions TO prevent the
spreading of the disease, and that no new
cases have been reported. Those who have
been exposed to the disease have been
quarantined and the school in that dis
trict has been closed. While the greatest
possible vigilance should be exercised,
there is no occasion for panic.
