RECENT DEATHS.
Allen.

Edward Allen, for the past sixty-one
years resident of this town, died Mon
day night, June IA, of apoplexy.
Wednesday morning, June 8, he had
shock, losing the use of his right side.
His family physician was called at once
but gave little hope of his recovery, as
he had had two slight shocks before. He
sank gradually and finally passed away
as peacefully as child goes to sleep.
Eighty-fve years ago the 26th OF
April he was born in Lyme N. H., the
tenth child of John and Joanna Cook
Allen and the last one of eleven children.
Edward Allen married on the 10th of
March, 1886, Rhoda Flint OF Lyme, N.
H., and moved at once to the farm where
he died. Mrs. Allen died eleven years
ago last March oil pneumonia. They had
two children, John Allen, who died last
July, and Edward p, who survives them
and has lived on the home farm the past
thirty-one years, making a home for
them. In religious belief Mr.. Allen was
brought up strict Baptist, but after he
came to St. Johnsbury heard the doc
trlne Of universal salvation preached and
knew it was what he had always be-
lieved. He was strong temperance
man; did not talk it as much as some
but practiced it in his daily life, being one
Of the first ones in Caledonia county to
find out that he could wash sheep or
raise a harm wi hout RIM He was a
great worker running in debt mostly
for his farm, he paid for the same in
twenty.four years, building new build
ings, so that not building stood where
it did twenty-four years before.
He served his town as lister and the
county several times as Juror. He was
good neighbor, ever read to lend help
ing hand in sickness or in health, and
kind husband and father. The funeral
was held at his late residence Wednesday
afternoon, June 16, Rev. H. H. Hoyt
preaching the funeral sermon.

No Central Fire Station. 400
voters attended the special village meet.
ing in the Town Hall last Friday night
when the question of central fire sta.
ton came up for final disposition. As
soon as President Bowman had called
the meeting to order, DR.. G. B. Billiard
was on his feet and moved that the meet
ing be adjourned. When the motion was
seconded the doctor reminded the chair
that a motion to adjourn was not de.
batable and he called for vote.
Alexander Dunnett said that when a
motion to adjourn amounted to the dis.
position of the business for which the
meeting was called such motion was
debatable, and he called for ruling from
the chair.
President Bowman said there would
be no gag law enforced at this meeting
and that debate would be allowed on
DR.. Billiards. motion.
DR.. Billiard said that he was willing
to submit this question to a vote only he
did not want an acrimonious discussion
OF the matter tonight. He would favor
the appropriation of SOS 900 towards
continuing the paving up Eastern venue
or an appropriation of $4,000 to raise
the source OF our water supply above the
sewers of the village and thus prevent an.
other typhoid fever epidemic. But he
was opposed to this scheme to build a
central fire station and he had stated his
reasons at a previous meeting.
Mr.. Dunnett wanted more information
on the subject and asked Capt. Griswold
several questions about the expense OF
the department and the probable cost of
the central station.
Marshal Montgomery said that every
body knew all the facts in this question
and urged that DR.. Billiards. motion be
put.
Capt. Griswold said that the primary
object OF all these meetings had been
attained because they had brought out
so many Of the voters who had been
informed of the question in all its bear
ings.
The ballot was then taken, the voters
using the check list Tor this occasion.
The result of the vote was the passage OF
DR.. Billiards. motion by majority OF "a
votes. There were 205 who voted to
adjourn and III who voted against the
motion.
The meeting then adjourned and the
central fire station project was finally
disposed Of.
Richmond dispatch. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1884-1903, 1897-03-12
THE WEST POINT MAILS.

A letter from West Point, printed in
another column Of the Dispatch this
morning, presents two complaints TO
which we would respectfully call the
attention of the proper committee or
committees of our Chamber Of Com
merce. one of these complaints is in
regard to a recent change Of schedule
On the York-River Division Of the South
ern railroad. under which the people
living between here and West Point,
the West Point people, and the citizens
OF a range Of counties extending from
Richmond TO the Chesapeake have been
subjected to a serious curtailment Of
their mail facilities. The other COM
plant is in respect to alleged discrimina-
tions in freight rates. In both of these
questions Richmond is interested.
As TO the justice Of the complaint re-
yarding freight-rate discrimination, there
Is not sufficient information in our pos
session to enable US to express an in
lelligent opinion. We can only say that,
If the facts are as indicated we hope
the Chamber of Commerce will find some
way to remedy the grievance.
But we are in position 20 express an
opinion respecting the mail question,
and we think that upon an understand
ing Of the facts the public will agree
with us that it involves a real grievance
Formerly a train left Richmond for
West Point at A. M. daily except Sun
days. returning, so as to reach Richmond
at p. NJ. Now this schedule has been
reduced to a tri-weekly service, the
train leaving on Tuesdays, Thursdays
and Saturdays only, and returning the
same days as previously. On Mon
days, Wednesdays and Fridays no
mails leave here for West Point and
intermediate stations and the coun-
ties supplied by the York River road
service until after o'clock T. NJ, and
there is no afternoon train for Rich
mond on these days. Therefore, the
Monday. Wednesday, and Friday mails
for West Point ana intermediate offices
are. as compared with the schedule Of
the other three days in the week, some
ten hours later in being dispatched from
the city, and, as is shown by our West
Point letter, the mails distributed or
forwarded from West Point to some
counties are from twenty-four 10 forty
eight hours later I'm reaching their desti-
nations This, doubtless, also affects
distribution or forwarding from stations
between Richmond and West Point.
Again, coming this way, the mails that
on the off-days accumulate at West
Point and intermediate offices. instead
of reaching Richmond at Il. NJ. on
these days, do not reach here until the
next morning. The serious Inconvenience
10 which this arrangement puts the peo-
pie OF a large section Of the State, as
wen as the detriment it works TO Rich
mond merchants, can be readily under
ltnoA
