c. Yose of Pittsfeld was in town
last week in consultation with our
citizens regarding the moving of his
chair mandatory TO this place. The
matter was thoroughly discussed and
investigated and we believe the pros

and the patent reversablesea makes
them very desirable.

announcement that ex-Gov. Page is
talked of as Representative from the
town of Hyde Park the coming ses-
