THE BOYS BATTALION AND MRS.
CUSTER

The boys battalion is fast getting down
to work. There were SO present from the
younger companies Wednesday, and Co. A
already numbers SO, with prospects of 50,
when the company will equal the Guards.
Enlistments are wanted Immediately, for
little more than two months remain before
the mid-winter competitive drill, and every
meeting counts. Some of the boys have
not noted that the fee of so cents entities
them to all junior privileges of the associa-
ton, and they will do well to get their
membership cards at once. The council
has also decided that any boy may, by pay
ing 25 cents, join the battalion, and that
this payment can count in, If he desires
later to pay the balance, and have the
junior association card. The Bible and
business meetings will be duly announced.
So much interest is taken in the Saturday
night competitive drill that badge is to be
offered to the successful competitor, TO be
held one week, and then defended as long
as possible at the succeeding drills. Full
and prompt attendance is specially desired
tomorrow night, particularly of new re-
cruits.
Mrs. General Clusters coming on Nov.
28 is greatly anticipated. She is to give
some of her famous addresses upon her ex-
citing and romantic western experiences.
Her husbands heroic war record and tragic
death, her own share in his marches and
perils, and her charming personality, will
all combine to make the occasion not only
profitable for the boys work, but delightful
TO the village, and particularly to the vet
eran and active soldiers, who always greet
her with enthusiasm. More details in re-
gard to her lectures will be given later.

MRS. D. A. HoUGHToN.

Mrs. Emily +. Houghton died Wednes-
day morning at her home on green street,
after a long illness from progressive paraly-
sis. Her age was IS. She was the daugh-
ter of Luther Miller of Dummerston and
was born in that town in 1877. There
were ten children in the family, of whom
NJ. NJ. Miller and r. c. Miller, both of
Brattleboro, are the only survivors. Mrs.
Houghton grew up in Dummerston and
with the exception of the time which she
spent at work in Boston at her trade as a
tailoress she lived in that town until her
marriage in 1913 to Don A. Houghton.
Immediately after their marriage Mr.. and
Mrs. Houghton settled on the well-known
Houghton farm on the Putney road where
they lived until Mr.. Houghton's death in
1884. Seven childrenlwere born to them,
Of whom six are living-John +. who oc-
cupies the old homestead, Emma, wife of
W. H. Frost of Williamsville, Ada E.,
longtime employee of The Phoenix office,
Ella L., Annie F., wife of F. NJ. Waite,
and Bertha A. Jennie, the youngest of the
family, wife of F. w. Nichols, died in
1888. Mrs. Houghton united with the
Congregational church in Dummerston at
the age of 10. She never transferred her
membership from that church and always

the death of her husband she came to
Brattleboro and her home has since been
with her daughters here. Disability caused
by a broken hip has kept her from mingling
with the active life of the community, but
she has had many friends who have found
pleasure in her bright and intelligent con-
versation. Energy and perseverance were
her marked personal qualities. She main
tanned to the last lively interest in the
affairs of the day, and there were few who
could talk with her vigor and intelligence
upon the politics of the last so years. Her
final illness, which first showed itself last
spring, was undoubtedly due to the broken
hip already spoken Of The funeral was
held at the house yesterday afternoon, Rev.

MRS. O. b. RuTTERF1ELp.

Mrs. Rosalia Elmer Butterfeld, notice
OF whose death appears elsewhere in our
columns, and whose remains were today
inferred in Prospect Hill cemetery, was
well known to many of the people of Brat
tleboro, where for over 20 years she resid-
ed. She was born in Dummerston Feb.
is, 1S47. She died in Ann Arbor, Mich,
Nov. 3, in the 10th year of her age. Her
remains were laid to rest in this town
where the most eventful and some of the
happiest years of her life were spent.
She was married in 1869 in Pittsfeld,
Mass, where she was then living, to Oscar
III. Butterfeld, and came at once to this
town, where, with the exception of year
spent in Greeley, Colo, she remained till
the early part of 1890. AT that time she
and her husband went to Ann Arbor,
where their only son, Ora E., was a student
in the law department of Michigan uni
versity. He having begun the practice of
his profession there and become identified
with the city government, his father and
mother had come to regard the university
town as their permanent home. After a

and three brothers, Lucian A. Elmer Of
Brattleboro, Edwin Elmer Of Omaha. Neb..
and Walter Elmer of Pittsfeld.
The death of Mrs. Butterfield is felt as
heavy blow by her immediate family, for it
was those who knew her in the most init
mate relations who best realized her nnob-
trusive but sterling worth. Domestic in
her tastes and virtues, she spent her love
and her boundless energies upon those
within the home circle. Still she made
many friends, who cherish for her a warm
affection, and, in this town, large num-
Der will feel her departure as a personal
bereavement. She was an interested mem
