AFTER an investigation by States At
torney Rowland and the local authorities
regarding the recent shooting affair at East
Barre whereby John Cello, an italian lost
his life, Charles Lott and Victor Bogio
were arrested last week at East Barre by
Deputy Sheriff Shepard and brought to
Montpelier. An Information had been
filed against them by the States attorney,
and the grand jury, after investigating the
case, will no doubt indict them for murder.
They were committed to Jail. Although
the shooting affair was the outcome Of
joke attempted to be played on another
party it was none the less serious mas
much as an innocent party lost his life.
A VERY pretty wedding occurred last
Wednesday evening at eight o'clock at the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. George H. Ladd Of
Middlesex Center, when their daughter
Alice Louise, was united in marriage to Os-
man man L. Goss OF this city, Rev. Andrew Gil
lies was the officiating Clergyman. Rice,
old shoes, etc., prevailed until the happy
couple started for the depot for the mid
night express which they took for Troy, N.
Y, where they are to spend their honey
moon. They found riding little "up hill"
work for a while, but it is needless to say
that the wheels have got back to their right
places by this time. Mr. and Mrs. Goss
will reside in the tenement now occupied
by Warren Kibby after about the middle Of
October.
QUARTERMAsrER GENERAL GILMORE was
at the Montpelier House Monday night, and
went on Tuesday to Fort Ethan Allen. So
many rumors have been in circulation of
late regarding the probability that the First
Vernon regiment will not be mustered out
next week, but held for further service, the
opinion OF General Gilmore on this question
was sought by a WATCHMAN reporter. He
stated that there is no doubt but what the
regiment will be mustered out at the com.
pany armories, and further said that this
work will begin not later than Tuesday or
Wednesday of next week. In fact there
has been no change in the original plan to
muster out the First Vermont, which was
formed when the regiment left Chicka-
mauga for Fort Ethan Allen.
