One fine day this Fall "a goodly number of
soldiers, armed with their trusty guns, were
seen passing through Barnumville, Vt. People
wondered if there was to be civil war in Man
chester, or had they volunteered to help Cuba
throw off the Spanish yoke.
Each soldier was accompanied by his wife,
who carried a box or basket, supposed to con-
tain lint and bandages. ~
They halted at Conrade Jerome Gleason s
house, where they wert given warm welcome,
supplemented by warm rations, which, in
abundance and variety, resembled an old
fashioned Thanksgiving dinner, as it should,
for those who belong know that these Grand
Army Reunions have the flavor of Thanks
giving when the family all come home.
The dinner was served by white-aproned
"auxiliaries," after which tho armed warriors
fled away into the woods, from which such
continual firing was soon heard that it was
thought there must be great slaughter there.
The "guid wives" showed their bravery by
spending the afternoon in the woods cooly
gathering Autumn leaves and moss while the
bullets whizzed around them, and when the
men returned from the slaughter of partridges,
they went forth TO meet them. rejoicing and
saying one to another, They must have slain
their hundreds"
When the game-bags were opened, it was seen
that Comra J. G. Blackmer had shot moro
patridges than all the rest, which caused no
surprise. for he was known long ago as light

tured Judd and daughter near the sum-
NIT of the Highland mountains. They
were brought to Barker and the pre-

MCGEE claimed that he bought the
horse from Mrs. Judd IL days before
his marriage. Judd claimed that Mrs.
Judd did not own the beast: 1t was
his property. Several witnesses were

the possession OF the little girl, and a
