fore had from SIX to Is inches OF water in

We noticed in The Phoenix OF last week
that question has been raised in West
Dummerston whether Carl T. Reed is a
married man and that it has been left for a
board of decision in the lyceum at that
village to decide from the weight OF argu-
ment presented by the disputants whether
Mr.. Reed belongs to the class of men called
Denedicts He has a pleasant home in
East Dummerston, where everything is
kept in apple-pie order by his amiabe and
excellent wife, who is frequently left alone
in the charge of the household affairs for
a week or longer at time on account of
the nature of her husbands business.
Mr. Reed is a worthy citizen in the prime
of life, very industrious and prosperous in
his business, which is that OF a lumber
man. Should the question at the lyceum
be decided against him it would be well
for him to take an appeal from the decis-
ion because it would certainly be a sad
disaster for him TO be deDarred from visit
ing home whose Joys are passing lovely
