James NJ. Jones gave an object lesson In

day OF last week. He is certain Tun-
bridge will be given this delivery : OF
i mails.
A hearing on the bridge question was
given by the county highway commits
sioner at Nights hall, North Tunbridge
last Thursday at 4 p. IN. There being
several questions OF importance to be de-
cided the hearing was adjourned finally to
Monday OF this week at p. m.
/ A. P. Ordway, who lives on the west
side of the river opposite this village, has
to travel about l l-2 miles to reach a
church, school, postoiiice, etc. II the
town will build bridge across the river
and lay road across the F. A. Tucker
land one mile, or more, OF this distance
would be cut off.
The hearing before the County Com
missioners, J. X. Darling OF Chelsea,
Chas. Granger OF Randolph and Horace
White OF Topsham, at Wight's hall, took
up new aspect Monday, when the town
brought in counsel ID. G.. Hyde OF STRAIT
ford, to act for its rights. q. l.. STOW OF
Chelsea acted for the few who signed the
petition to call out the commissioners.
The hearing was on a bridge that is said
to be unsafe for travel. When the bridge
was built in 1915 the town voted to build
one-third OF the bridge IL j. r. Buzzell,
one of the land owners on the east side Of
the branch, would give the town the right
to get gravel from a knoll on his land,
and be and another party were to build
the other two-thirds, which they did, but
after that until the present day the town
has made all repairs, charging the other
parties for one-third apiece. which is said
to have never been paid The counsel for
the defence tried to show the commits
sioners a more feasible way to accommo-
date all parties concerned, by laying a
road around, wi ich could be built for a
small sum, compared with what ii would
cost to build a new bridge, but was choked
off. The court adjourned to wait the de-
cision of the comm ISIS ioners

Miss Macarthur, who was spared by

The girl, frenzied by the horrible
sight of the murder of her little brother,
staggered into other rooms, only to
find that Morrison had killed four
members OF the family with the axe,
and left three others wounded for dead.
With some difficulty she reached q

Men turned out and set out upon the
