Marble was a stranger to all, having
lived in the place but a comparatively
short time, vet every heart went out in
sympathy 10 the afflicted husband and
/ parents, brothers and sisters, who so
deeply greve for one snatched from
them ia the full promise of life.
Miss Ella bore is teaching in Shirley.
Miss Emma has returned from Water
vile, where she spent the winter with
relatives.
Mrs. Gaen kincaid and daughter,
Bertha of Madison, were in town, last
week. to attend the funeral of Mrs.
Willard Marble.
Mrs. F. O. Turner had millinery
opening on Saturday, which was well at
tended.
Sadie, the eight-year-old daughter of
F. p. Pencil has attended school for
eight consecutive terms without losing a
single day and has been tardy but two
or three times. Where is the little girl
who can beat that: Let US hear from
her.
A party of seven grown people and
twelve children with II horses and 3
dogs passed through this town, Friday,
enroute for Aroostuuk Co. They made
a call at every house as il grew near
noon, and succeeded in begging enough
for a very comfortable dinner for the
whole outfit.

Our neighborhood has lately been
somewhat reinforced.
Chauncey Foss and wife have returned
from Auburn where they passed the
winter.
Aaron Soule has come to live with
Mr.. Tozier, moving here from Skowhe'
gan where he has lived the past four
years
Mrs. Clifford Deering, Gillian San
ford) is at her old home here fora while,
returning May II from a stay of two
months with her husband at Bridge
water, Mass, where he has employment.
But not all are coming. Some are
going. We learn that Charles Sanford
contemplates moving to Skowhegan this
week.
Our latest reinforcement was May II.
A small boy of ten pounds called TO be
enrolled at the home of c. F. Baker, Jr.
MIR. Baker is to be congratulated on his
smart family of four boys and three
girls.
Perhaps Ephraim Berry and wife are
expecting our congratulations They
have lately taken a boarder. We admit
that they have better paying boarder
than their neighbours, but she is not a
permanent one-it is the school teacher.
Our school began May 8 with Miss
Sadie E. Parsons, teacher. There were
10 scholars in attendance and at home
too young to go this year.
When we asked the town to build us a
schoolhouse two years ago some of the
voters thought we were asking too much.
We wonder if they think so now when
they are informed that there have been
five babies added to the school popula-
tion since Jan. l, 90. What school
district in town has done better? c.
