NINETY YEARS OLD.
Col. Frederick Fletcher Reaches that
Ripe old A &c.

Col. Frederick Fletcher Reaches that
Ripe old A Sc.
Col. Frederick Fletcher celebrated
his ninetieth birthday yesterday and
large number of his friends took
this opportunity to call and ex-
tend their hearty congratulations
Col. Fletcher was i'll the best of
health and received his friends with
that courteous and kindly manner
that has always been characteristic
of the man. The CALEDoNIAN ex-
tends congratulatins to our distin-
guished townsman and expresses the
universal wish that he may live
many years more and that the de-
clining years of his life may be free
from pain and sorrow.
Sketch of His Life.
Col. Frederick Fletcher was born in
Woodstock Nov. 21, 1904. The family
was a notable one. The father, lanes
Fletcher, was born in Chesterfield, N H =,
Feb. %, 1857, and the mother, Catherine
Fletcher, was born May IS. 1862.
Twelve children were born to this fami-
ly. Col. Fletcher was the youngest OF
the lot, all of whom with one exception
lived to a good old age. Of these child
ren, the oldest one, Paris, went to Bird
port into the saddler's business. He
was soon followed by Frederick and the
next older brother, the late Thaddeus r.
Fletcher whose fortune ultimately went
to the establishment of the Fletcher Free
Library and the Mary Fletcher Hospital
in Burlington.
These two brothers worked for Paris
for n time and then went into the mer-
camille business in Jericho, soon branch
ing out till they had seven stores in as
many towns in that vicinity. Through
close attention to business they prosper
ed and readily accumulated quite a for
tune. They were prominent in all town
affairs and Frederick brought about the
establishment of a union poor farm in
which six or seven towns were interested
and which has proved a great success in
managing the unfortunates.
In 1912 the brothers sold their stores
and went to Burlington to live where
their business ability brought them into
prominence, and Frederick was made
president of the Farmers and Mechanics
bank, of which he had been a director for
many years.
From Col. Fletcher's interest in the
militia comes the title by which he is
known. He was the first Vermonter to
add a brass band to muster and other
public occasions. He entered the militia
as captain in 1926 and was gradually
promoted until he became colonel in
1888 of the Sth regiment
About 80 years ago he removed to
this town where his son, Col. T. c.
Fletcher, had already established buSi-
ness. He was the first president of the
Merchants National bank and has al
ways taken an interest in all our town
affairs.
Col. Fletcher was married to Beulah
Chittenden Jan. Il, 1886. She was the
daughter of Truman Chittenden and
granddaughter of Gov. Thomas Chitten-
den, Vermont's first governor. She died
March 16, 1898.

THE REPUBLICAN SOLD.

AT the auction of the property of
the Caledonia County Publishing
Company Tuesday morning the en-
tire plant was sold to L. P. Thayer,
formerly of the West Randolph Her
aid. The bidding was not very lively
and the plant sold for $500. Mr.
Thayer takes possession next Mon
day.
The Caledonia County Publishing
Company was organized in 1885
with a capital stock of $1O,OOO
This was increased $4,000 when the
Daily was started, which was an en-
terprising but not successful ven
ture. The former manager left as a
legacy notes and bills payable
amounting to about SIS, 900. The
creditors had receiver appointed to
protect their interests and as a result
of the sale will receive about 3Ocents
on the dollar. The stockholders will
not get anything.
Mr.. Thayer is one of the best
known journalists in the state. For
over 20 years he has published the
West Randolph Herald and made a
success of it. He is a dyed-in-the-
wool republican and has always
taken an active interest in public
matters He has made no plans as
to the future details of the work.

HOME FOR AGED WOMAN.

Have you ever visited Sunset Home?
If so you are already interested in this
family made after the Divine plan-"God
setteth the solitary in families" Those
who come once usually come again and
not empty-handed. If you have never
visited it, we invite you to do so at your
earliest convenience. The last Wednes-
day in each month was set apart as
visiting day when the visitors for the
month would be present. 1t has never
been observed to any extent, but you
will receive gracious welcome any day.
The old-time fast-day is merging into the
truer fast which God hath chosen, better
fulfilled in Thanksgiving day rightly OBJ
served and just at hand. Shall not some
of the intervening days turn our thoughts
and deeds toward this Home? Last year
it was very bountifully remembered.
One gift-a barrel of -four, has furnished
bread all the year and so the giver is not
yet forgotten.
Meanwhile many have helped to make
it an all-the-year-round Thanksgiving
day. We feel sure that to be reminded of
this beautiful charity in our midst will
insure renewed cause for multiplied
Thanksgivings.

DIR. PALMER'S LECTURE.

What we believe will be one of the
most interesting lectures ever given
in St. Johnsbury will be the one in
the lecture course at Music Hall to-

of New York will deliver his patriotic
lecture, "The Die-No-M Mores," which
has aroused more enthusiasm than
any lecture of the present day. DIR.
Palmer enlisted when only IA, and
served through all the war, and this
lecture is a tribute to the private
soldier in the war. After listening to
this lecture Gen. o. o. Howard said,
"It made me feel that we had a coun-
try worth dying for" and Chaplain
McCabe says, Hear it if you have
to ride fifty miles for the privilege" "

effects of the poison early in the

his mind has been unbalanced for
