Alpha Messer, the master Of the
Vermont state grange, and national
grand lecturer, issues an appeal to the
members Of the order for a general
canvass to increase the number of
oranges and of it's members. He saws:
1sThe farmers of Vermont need the
grange; the grange needs all the
farmers and their families We want
the best men in the grange TO assist in
developing and making proper use Of
the social and educational features of
the order, for the benefit of the rural
population of our state. Vermont oc-
cupies a leading position in various
lines Of farming interests, and is sure
ly coming to the front as a place for
happy rural homes; and our farming
population should use every opportu-
nifty within their reach to properly de
velop the social element in their ma
lures, and to educate themselves. not
only in the various lines which relate
to farm work and farm production,
but also in those lines of education
which relate to their duties and re-
sponsibilities as citizens -

Johnsbury. July 4, 1886, went to John
Dow's house, Greensboro, then again
to Calderwood's, then to Carl Thomp-
sons, in Greensboro, then to Ora
Rowell's, again to Thompson's, then
to Riley Tolman's. When keeping
house her husband supported her;
when she got short, she went out to
work and her husband went to his IA
ther's Their household effects were
much of the time during all these
years at Moses Silver's. In spring of
1888 went to SWEET place, Greensboro,
and remained there till Sept, 1889.
In 1892 called upon Craftsbury for
help. She and four children still sup
ported by that town; her husband at
the Moses Silver place. She had not
seen him since last November. Her
father had been supported some Of
the time by the town Of Greensboro.
A large number of witnesses were
examined on both sides, tending to
show the various transactions by both
towns; also the ability of A. 0. Silver
to earn living. Some testified that
he was not able of himself to earn
living and support his family, while
others said he annually run with a
saving and threshing machine and
was an average hand, sometimes hav-
ing charge Of the business and max
ing necessary repairs.
Various witnesses were produced to
show where Silver and his family
had resided at different times, the
object of the plaintiff being to show
that the family had maintained a res
idence for three consecutive years in
Greensboro.
The defence attempted to prove
that there had not been three consec
utive years of self support shown and
produced testimony to show that the
family Of Mr.. Badger, father Of Mrs.
Silver, had been supported by the
town, and that, too, while Mrs. Silver
was at her fathers and receiving BEN
eft Of such aid. The main question
appeared to be whether Mrs Silver
and children had ever maintained, in
the years since her marriage, three
years residence in the town of
Greensboro, being during that time
self supporting. If Greensboro could
prove that aid had been furnished
them dtafang this period, it broke the
settlement and made sure defense.
In the case of the Graham family,
Mr.. Graham testified that his father
had been dead sixteen years and since
that time his mother had lived with
him. She had no property. In 1892,
Graham was ARRESTED and committe d
to jail in Newport for non-payment
OF debt. At that time his family
were in Craftsbury, with nothing to
live upon in his absence as he did not
leave them supplied; his family con-
sisted of wife, six children and moth
er.
Greensboro practically admitted
three years continuous, SELF t-support-
ing residence Of the Graha N family in
that town.

A SERIOUS MATTER.

English OHicers and Soldiers Shot in Sierro
Leone, without Warning or Provocation
BY Frensh Troops Sent Out to Punish
the Nativos-The Firing Upon the En-
glish is Inexplicable Until Further News
is Received.
LONDON, Jan. 6.-The news received
at Liverpool concerning the slaughter
of British troops in the interior of
Sierra Leone has been confirmed by
the adyices of the foreign and war
Offices The officers killed were Capt.
Lendy, Lieut.. C. Wroughton, Lieut..
Liston and sergeant. The twenty
privates who were shot were all ne
groes. The government dispatches
are meager.
According to all accounts the French
opened fire upon the British troops
without provocation Or warning.
The attack took place in the district
whose possession is still a matter of
dispute between France and England.
Some time ago Capt. Lendy was sup
posed to be hemmed in by natives near
Koranko, and detachment of the
West India regiment was sent to his
aid. Then a larger. force from the
same regiment was dispatched after
the first. 1t is not known whether
both forces were with him at the time
of the French attack.
Capt Lendy left Liverpool in No
vember, 1892 a.
The French some time since took
possession of the town of Hera Ma
kohah in the interior. This town was
claimed by the English and Capt.
Lendy was dispatched with small
force to relieve the British at Taluta
in the district. All reports OF his
progress and experiences since he set
out have been meager and contra
dictory.
The main British expedition sent to
Koranko was commanded by Lieut.
Col. Ellis, and consisted of 1870 frontier
police and 430 West Indians. Great
Britain had informed France of the
objects and scope of the expedition,
knowing that French troops also
were furnishing the Sofas under All
NAV Samadoo. Those at Koranko had
fed from the French. Great Britain was
not aware that the French were far
enough south to come in contact with
the British troops. The French troops
consisted chiefly of Senegal negroes,
Differed by Frenchmen.
Capt. Lendy recently was decorated
with the Distinguished Service order.
