"a REEFS in our country are for
tunately 80 common as al
most to pass without de6ni-
ton. Everybody knows tree
and knows all about 1t too. At least
he thinks he does. He knows that
tree has an erect persistent stem, wide
spreading or deep descending roots,
waving, far extending branches and
abundant leaves, casting In summer
grateful shade, in autumn falling. He
knows that trees, some Of them at
least, bear flowers and fruits and seed,
reproducing the species latter their
kind" This much everybody knows,
and these indeed are some of the pa
tent, obvious features Of tree. New.
ertheless, as may be suspected. this Is
only an outside or surface view OF the
subject. When we come to inquire
how the tree comes to be what 1t Is,
how it does all the things that we see
1t do, how It pushes the roots through
the hard ground where plow can
hardly 60, how the leaves elaborate its
food, how It builds stem and bark and

REENWOOD.

Some say we are having our Indian
summer, and really it is fine weather
thus far this week, although Jack Frost
reminds us every morning rs to the real
season of the year.
Various kinds of work are going on
including butchering and shingling
buildings.
Last Saturday evening A. S. Brooks
had husking bee, comprising both
sexes and all ages from old to young.
About 40 took supper there, and first
class time was reported. On the follow
ing Wednesday evening Austin Morgan
had similar gathering, and about the
same number took supper.
Dea. S. B. Cummings has left his
hermitage, and gone to stop with his
grandson, George G. Cole, Jr., for the
winter. His diseased arm is giving him
good deal of trouble.
S. b. Swan, whose death was reported
last week, was the oldest son of the late
John and Louisa Briggs Swan, and liv-
ed the most of his life in this town. He
was married about 80 years ago to Sibbel
b. Cummings, the union never being
blessed with children. His widow and
TWO DrOtnerS survive ulUl.
There is a coincidence in connection
with the decease, which perhaps may be
worth mentioning. On the last day of
October, 1898, Mr.. Swan was baptized in
Twitchell Pond by Rev. Seth Benson,
and joined the Greenwood Baptist
church, all the members being present
on the occasion, except A. j. Aver, who
was too feeble to attend. In just four
years from that day Mr.. Benson preach
ed his funeral sermon, all the members
of the church being present, except Mt.
Aver, who was absent for the same rea-
son as before. The remains were buried
in the new cemetery at the Centre, which
is situated about midway between the
place of baptism and the little chapel in
which he received the right hand of fell
lowship four years ago.
And now we are called upon to relate
another fatal accident. 1t will be re-
membered that several years ago Edward
Estes was married to Dea. r. l.. Coles
only daughter, Matte, the marriage
being public and full report given at
the time. He soon moved to Lynn,
Mass, and worked at his trade, which
was that of carpenter. The other day
the sad news came that he was killed by
fall while at work on an elevator. He
leaves widow to mourn his untimely
death, but no children.
