Opinion of the Water Commissioners.
The water commissioners have requested
the village clerk to call a special meeting
of the voters Of the village for next Mon
day evening to consider the reservoir
matter. The official call for the meeting
will be found in another column.
On account of the rocky nature of three
quarters at least of the bottom and sides
of the present reservoir, it leaks badly and
is very difficult to repair without much
blasting and newly shaping OF the entire
reservoir, cementing the same with one or
two heavy coats at cost which the COM
inissioners believe would be more than
the building of new reservoir Of one
quarter larger capacity than the present
one.
Colonel A. B. Chandler has generously
offered to give the village most excellent
place for new reservoir with all neces
sary rights and privileges to build and
maintain 1t forever) on the brow of the
hill west OF his residence, near the easter
ly line Of the Weston lot, at a point about
where single large maple tree now
stands. This place is on level with the
present reservoir SO that there would be
the same pressure as now.
1t is found by digging at this point
down to depth OF II feet that the soil is
"hard pam" the best of materials out OF
which to construct reservoir. From a
careful examination of the location, it Is
believed to be free from ledge, which is
the cause OF the trouble with the old res
ervoir.
The connection with the present pipes
for taking the water to the new reservoir
can be made at the corner of South Main
street and Highland avenue, to which
point six-inch pipe is now laid. This is
only 70 rods from the right place to take
the water into the new reservoir II the vii
lage shall vote to build one.
A careful estimate OF the cost OF con-
structing an entirely new reservoir has
been made and figures at from $500 to
$1,000, including the proper piping to take
the water in.
It is not believed that the old reservoir
can be repaired so that it will be as good
as a new one for that money; and when SO
repaired, it is quite uncertain about its
being sure to hold on account OF the
lodges. Another very important thing in
connection with this is that dur
ing the four to six weeks time it would
require to repair it, the village would be
without fire protection, which might be a
serious matter.
In the building of a new reservoir there
is no such contingency while the work is
going on, and the old reservoir might be
kept In such repair hereafter as to be used
when cleaning the new one,
or for extra storage of water, II thought
best.

Church Wedding.

On Wednesday morning, Sept. 2, at II
o'clock, Julia Alyce, daughter OF Thatcher
Stone, Esq, proprietor OF the "Maple.
wood" at Randolph Center, was married
to Mr.. Louis Ferdinand Grant Of Cam
bridge, Mass. !.
The ceremony was performed by Rev.
Homer White In Grace church, which was
deliberately and beautifully trimmed for
the occasion. Miss Abbie Clark presided
while the large audience waited for the
coming OF the bridal party.
The best man was Mr.. Bridgman OF
West Somerville, Mass, and the maid OF
honor was Miss Maud Grant, sister OF the
bridegroom.
The bridesmaids we're the two sisters Of
the bride and Miss Bessie IA. Holden.
The ushers were H. Closson Gilbert,
George B. Gilbert and Henry Sawyer Of
Boston.
The bridesmaids were dressed in white,
the maid Of honor wore blue silk, while
the bride was dressed in white null over
white silk and wore veil. She carried
bouquet of bride roses, and about her
dress were lilies OF he valley and sweet
peas.
AS the doors were thrown open and the
bridal party entered, the bride on the arm
OF her father, the notes OF the wedding
march sounded joyously from the organ,
and to its measure the proce ssion moved
up the aisle to the chsncel steps. Here
the bridegroom and his best man, coming
from the vestry, met the party and as
sumed their proper positions. The clergy
man, robed in surplice with white stole,
came down the chancel steps to meet them
and there went through the first part OF
the service-the bet-othal-up to the Civ
ing away Ut the bride. Then be retired to
the altar and the young couple with their
attendants, came up on to the chancel floor
to the altar rail and there the concluding
portion OF the service was said, the pray
ers being read over the kneeling couple,
who knelt also to rece GIVE the blessing.
The organ was played softly through
out the service, but as the newly-married
pair rose to their feet and turned to lead
the procession down the aisle, 1t burst in
to Joyous strain In harmony with the
happiness it celebrated. After the cere-
mony there was reception followed BY
dinner for the nearest friends, at the
"Maplewood." The numerous presents
to the bride were mostly OF solid silver
and cut glass and were displayed on
table for the inspection Of the guests.
MIR. and Mrs. Grant were obliged to
hasten from the table in order to catch
the 1880 train for their new home in Wa
tertown, Mass. As they left the house
they we're pelted with many handouts OF
rice and they found their carriage and
horses almost hidden by floral decora-
sued not only by a shower OF old shoes
but by the good wishes Of host OF
friends,s Mrs Grants Vermont friends
will miss her much while they pray tnat
her life may be happy one in the home
she has chosen. R
