The weeks record beginning last
Tuesday shows a general moisture
that would indicate that either La
noble County Fair or the annual
Campmeeting, or the G. A. r. re-
union must be in progress, but hap
PLY that was not the case and it is
to be hoped that the rain has come
and accomplished its good work, a
little in advance Of any and all of
these events, that tradition says al
ways make it rain, whether or no,
the temperature went hustling right
down, but came up with jump
again on Friday when dog day
weather of the most approved type
prevailed.
II. Z. Cutler, who sold out his pho
tograph business here some time ago,
and went to Norwich, Conn, to con-
tinue the business, has sold out there
and came to Morrisville last week
having first visited Barre and his old
home in Northfeld In coming from
the latter place by train he lost his
long pocket-book, containing some
sixty dollars or more in cash and a
FIVE hundred dollar check, besides
papers that he would prefer to have.
The loss was not noticed until after
he had taken the train on the B. & l..
division at Essex Junction. The con.
ductor on the train he had left was
autographed to and asked to search
the car. Harry is made up of plucky
stock, but he did look a little "pale
around the gills" when he reached
here. He is contemplating locating
in business in Barre, where there
seems to be an opportunity.
