A Tribute to Character.

The following extract from the sermon
of Rev. f. E. Marggraf of Bellows Falls,
delivered at the funeral of John Robertson,
seems to many of our people to be an ac-
curate summing up of the character of Mr..
Robertson:
"He was man whom wealth could not
spoil or position make vain. He believed
in the homely old maxim of living and let
ting live. Men, therefore, who came in
contact with him as an employer or COM
mercially always found him "much of a
man. and it is in such relations more
than elsewhere that men show their true
character. He was a man of quick, gen
erous and tender impulses. Nothing was
others. He loved with all the intensity of
his strong nature his home, his children,
his wife and his friends. He was ever
ready to help deserving man, and his ex-
cellent judgment enabled him to assist
many by counsel which was especially val
liable. He had strong interest in the
public veal and no worthy cause ever APP
pealed to him without receiving re-
Spouse. He was also man of
strong religious interests. His intense
fondness for young people, his eXuberant
Joy in life, his interest in everything that
related to life and living kept his spirit
young when he had passed the allotted
time of man. Thankful are we for what
he was, for the manly life, which, meas
ured by the light of other mems lives, was
rich and fruitful in many virtues worthy of
emulation"

A Board of Control Elected and u COM
mittee Chosen TO Solicit Funds.
A meeting was held at the town hall
Monday evening for the purpose of form
ing an organization to conduct the public
reading room voted by the town. Rev.

spoke of the advantages to be derived from
reading room properly carried on and
hoped to see the step taken by the town
perpetuated.
The corner room in the town hall build
| ing next to Fisk Block was favored as be-
ing the best available room for the pur-
pose. The organization will be called
The Hinsdale Reading Room association.
Z. ii. Patterson presented a consttu-
ton and bylaws which were accepted with
the addition of one article and a few
changes
Article three of the constitution relates
to the choosing of a board of control Of
five members and was the most discussed
of any. 1t was finally voted to elect a
nominating committee of three to make
nominations for the above board, and f.
/. Mason j. c. McCaughern and w. j.
Leonard were chosen.
After being out for some time they
brought in the names of c. ii. Patterson,
Mrs. j. X. Holman, J. c. McCaughern, X.
A. Clogher and Miss A. NJ. Barrows, who
were elected. The board is to have man
agement of the room under the supervision
of the selectmen, and will organize by
choosing president, secretary and treas
urer from the members of the board.
A committee consisting of Miss Emma
Wellman, Frank S. Archibald and Miss
Minerva Burroughs were appointed to so
lict funds for the association to 60 toward
payment of lighting, furniture and fixtures
of the room. The committee will make
every effort to get as large a sum as posi-
BILE, and no one will hesitate about giving
as it is one of the most deserving and
worthy objects that could be asked for.
1t is the intention to have daily, weekly
and monthly papers and magazines in the
| room, the amount of which will be gov
erned somewhat by the subscriptions re-
ceived by the soliciting committee.

Hard Lines In Their Declining Years

Joseph b. Randall and wife were taken
to the county farm at Westmoreland Tues
day morning by Constable +. p. Kinds,
and accompanied as far as Keene by Third
Seectman o. II. Higgins. Mr. and Mrs.
Randall at one time owned quite a little
property in town and had some money
saved by the result of years of hard work
and economy, but by a few poor invest
ments into which they were drawn they
were deprived both of their home and
money, and for the past year have been
town charges. Mr.. Randall is now over
70 years of age and has been ailing for
some time, causing his mind at times to be
slightly unbalanced, and it was thought
best to remove he and his wife to the coun-
ty farm, where they would receive the
proper care.
