A Child Bitten by Rattlesnake in Pres
-eace of its Father.
The dispatches give an account of a
distressing encounter of child with
rattlesnake, that resulted in the death
of the three-year-old child of Frank
Floyd, near San Francisco. One after
noon the baby went into the yard to
play and found a cozy place in corner
and commenced digging in the sand.
Soon his attention was attracted by
rattling sound. A saake rustled up
to the child, and coiling itself up in
front of the little one, darted two and
fro. The boy was delighted with the
visitor, and talked to it in baby lang
uage.
His father walked into the yard to
look after the baby, and was horror
child prattling to the snake. Shout
ing to the baby not to touch the snake,
he secured a club and.walked stealthily
up to the rattler, which was watching
every movement made by the infant.
The little one reached out to protect
the snake, and received bite on the
back of the right hand. In an instant
the father had smashed the snake,sl

one or the other of these troop
ers very often rode with him. AL
though he had been much on
horseback since his earliest recol-
lection, these friendly troopers
noticed and corrected his faults
in riding. Indeed, though he did
not then known it, he was in an
excellent school for a trooper all
these three years. He had not
only enjoyed the favor of these
detached men, but had often
seen the entire troops on the
march and in drill under their
accomplished officers, Captains
Jones and Armitinger. This ex-
perience influenced him in his
choice in the cavalry arm, when
he decided it was his duty to en-
list for the war.
He was admitted to the bar of
Lamoille county at the June
term, 1S49. December of same
year was appointed Clerk of the
Court and held the office for two
years. In 1852 he was again APP
pointed and held the office until
he resigned to enlist in the ser
vice in September in 1861.

But now that Hyde Park has

deemed it advisable and necessa-

people to send them a resident

Edward Bertrand Sawyer, son
of Joshua and Mary Keller Saw

April 16, 1928. He was the
eighth child of his parents and the
second of his name. From the
age of five to fourteen he attend
ed school. In 1912 he went to
live with his oldest brother, Vic
tor, who was then in trade at
Pike River village, P. Q. Here he
served an arduous apprentice
ship of three years. Stationed at
this little village were always at
this time two or three troopers
of the Queens Light Dragons
and Montreal Royal Cavalry,
whose duty it was to patrol the
country around for the purpose
of intercepting deserters, etc,
and to keep themselves, horses
and equipment in fine condition.
These men were relieved by 9th
ers once in about eight weeks.
Both above troops were then
composed of fine, stalwart men
who had seen some service in the
then late Papineau war, and had
splendid mounts and equipment.

chance for any one to drop any

AS fast as each vessel is filled,

that it contains no poisonous sub

tightly to retain the warmth. Over

ly polished that it looks like a

of jublakiars, or first assistants
of the chief cook each bearing
on his head a tray, upon which
rests one of the silver vessels.
These jublakIars are so perfectly
trained In the art of head balanc-
