O'Clock this morning, at her home on

widow of Deacon William l.. Poland,

gallant struggle for eight weeks. Death
was due to pneumonia, and old age
prevented the recovery that otherwise
might have been possible.

she would have reached the age of II.
and almost to the point of death her
recovery was looked for. Mrs. Poland
was without doubt one of the most ca
pable women of North Brookheld.
For IA years she held the office of
postmistress and presided over the
mails in a way that did credit to her
self and the town, Among the older
people Of the town there was no one
better known than she and her popu-
Iarity was undoubtedly deserved. Since
she left the post Office she has kept
house on Prospect street, where she
ded this morning, always taking an
active interest in church affairs and
being prime mover in benevolent as
SOClauonS.
As an almost lifelong member of the
First Congregational Church, she held
the esteem and respect Of the parish

Two children were born to them, both

South Grafton Resi-

THREE SALOONS.
More Than They Wish to
Tolerate This Year.

Grafton, March 23.-At a meeting Of
the selcctmen. last evening. The chief
point for discussion was how many Ii
censeS shall be granted by the town for
the year following May /, and how
they shall be distributed This is a
question which the people of the south
part of the town desire 10 have an
swered in different way than it has
been in past years. There have been
three licensed saloons in the south part
for the pas, two years, and despite the
strong protest entered by AZ residents
of that section last spring, they have
had the same number during the past
year, while in the other parts Of the
town there have only been one each in
the centre and at North Grafton.
That the three saloons at the south
part are managed with little regard for
the rights of the people and the liquor
laws can hardly be questioned. The
selectmen have The power to grant five
licenses in the town, or whatever num-
Der they see 1T, and those from the
south part are strongly Of the opinion
that the number granted should he
