Mrs Lydia B. Hawley, of whose death
brief notice was given last week, was born
at Ryegate, December "a, 1902. Her maiden
name was Dow. She came to Waitsfeld
when about twenty years of age, and has re-
| sided here since. In 1882 she married Harry
n Hawley. Two children were born to
| them and both are now living-Avery N.
| Hawley, who now lives in the state OF
| Washington, and Mrs. Mary Skinner OF
this place. Mrs. Hawley in her early
| years, professed religion and united with
| Congregational church, but after coming to
| Waitsfeld, she took a letter from that
church and joined the Methodist church.
| In the anti-slavery days she with her hus-
band, withdrew from the Methodist and
joined the Wesleyan church. But after
| slavery was abolished she reunited with the
| Methodist church. Her influence in all
| church matters, as well as in her everyday
| life, has always been for the right and she
will be sadly missed in the church as well
| as in her own home.
The new creamery building erected by the
Waitsfield Creamery. Company. is nearly
| completed and will be ready for business the
last OF this week, or the first Of next. The
farmers of Mad river valley are taking an un-
usual interest in this creamery, and the milk
from three hundred cows is already assured.
1t is located about midway between the
| creameries at Waitsfield and Moretown. The
building is equipped with twelve-horse
power boiler, a Watertown engine and with
churns, watts, ETC., from the Vermont Farm
Machine Company of Bellows Falls. The
watts have four hundred gallon capacity
| The separator is twenty-five hundred pounds
power and a three hundred gallon churn
will be used. The building will be equipped
with steam tester and will be heated with
exhaust steam from the engine. The cost
of the building, ready for use, will not ex-
coed S1,7O0 and the subscriptions to stock
will practically pay the expense leaving the
company able to begin business with no
debt. The water supply and drainage are
excellent, and the concern will be managed
and run by men in whom the patrons have
reason to have the utmost confidence.
