The St. Johnsbury Grocery Co.

Henry E. Wilson has opened his whole
sale grocery store and has already star
ted out on the road. He will be assisted
by another travelling salesman, while
John E. Cook and John Galbraith will
be in the store. The new store is located
in Mr.. Caldbeck's building on Market
street and occupies three floors. In the
large office on the first floor will be sam
pies of all the goods handled by the firm.
St. Johnsbury is an excellent place for a
wholesale house, its two railroads lead
ing in tour directions, and Mr.. Wilson
will build up a trade through Vermont
and northern New Hampshire. Mr.. Will
son is nc stranger to the retail grocers
in that section as he travelled for many
years for a well-known Boston house
and has had charge of stores in this and
other towns in this county. Goods are
arriving by the carload every day and
the retail dealers have found out that
they can buy their goods cheaper in St.
Iohnsbury than in Boston, as there
is often considerable saving in the
freight.

sale involving about $4,000. This is
one of the largest real estate deals ever
consummated in the village and Mr..

of the best pieces of real estate in town.

dicate being formed to buy the property,
but Mr.. Caldbeck took the matter in his
own hands and bought it.
The Avenue House is at present leased
to F. M. Black, who has proved such
popular landlord, and built up such a
splendid trade, that the travelling public
and the citizens of st. Johnsbury hope
that at the proper time Mr.. Black will
take another lease of the property.

Farewell ReceptiOn.
Our TOwnspeOpIe's Tribute TO Judge
and Mrs Bates.

and Mrs Bates.
Judge Henry c. Bates received word
Friday that the government trans
port would leave San Francisco on
March Is and this compelled him to
hasten his departure by several days and
leave town on Monday afternoon. This
quite upset the plans of the county bar,
who were to give him banquet on Mon
day evening, while the Mystic Club had
planned little reception for him on
Tuesday evening. Some of his friends
decided to combine these functions and
quickly engaged the Museum for Satnr-
day evening. Several hundred of our
townspeople gathered there to meet and
greet Judge and Mrs. Bates and music
was furnished for the occasion by the St.
Johnsbury Orchestra.
After half hour of cordial handshak-
ings Senator Dunnett called the assem-
bly, to order and Arthur F. Stone present
ed Judge Bates with gold watch chain
and charm, the gift of the Mystic Club.
Mr.. Stone referred to the fact that the
recipient was not only one of the char
ter members OF the club. but one of it's
originators, and hoped the gift would
always remind him of the lasting
friendship OF every member of the club.
Senator Dunnett followed Mr.. Stone,
and on behalf of the citizens of st. Johns
bury presented Judge Bates with an ele-
giant diamond ring. He referred very
fittingly to the high honor conferred up
on Mr.. Bates by the appointment, to the
acknowledged legal ability that he posses
sed to fill this position, and to the warm
esteem in which he was held by every
person in St. Johnsbury.
Mr.. Dunnett was very happy in his
CT sing words, which were as follows
GAS token of the friendship and esteem
of your old neighbors, and of their SYM
pathy with you in your future home and
labor, present you this ring. Take it
with you. May your happiness be as
endless as the circle it represents. May
your Judicial work be as bright and
pure as the light of this beautiful
diamond"
Judge Bates responded beautifully and
feelingly to these gifts. He said he
should always consider st. Johnsbury his
home, that he left the town with no re-
sentiment to anyone, and he was glad to
feel that no one harbored any resent
ment towards him. He said words
could not express the depth of his feel
ings on this occasion and he most heart
lily thanked both the Mystic Club and
the citizens for their beautiful gifts. And
for the parting word he wanted it to be
Good night" and not Good bye"
Judge Bates was warmly applauded at
the close of his address and after all had
said "Good night" the reception was
over.
Judge Bates, Mrs. Bates and Miss
Addie Bates left on Monday afternoon
for the Pacific coast. A large crowd
was at the depot to say "bon voyage"
and they carry to their Philippine home
the best wishes for long life and contin-
ued happiness from all our townspeople.
