quarantine Sunday, after siege OF about
six weeks. The case in Mr.. Gary's family

time until the last was unfavorable. The

forced confinement, and all who knew of
the case were pleased when the condition

whether I was going to stay here or re-
turn, hence this note. Yours,

The first snow storm of any account
came Monday. There was enough for
but not enough to interfere
with travelling to any great extent. Trains
on the Central Vermont were about as
nearly on time as usual, but were delayed
somewhat. Everybody who wished had a
wish. The first good sleighing of the
winter resulted from the storm, although
there was short period after an. Ice
storm when runners could be used. There
has been noticeable lack of the so-called
beautiful snow this year, and we have
got along very nicely without 1t. The
wintry nature Of Monday and Tuesday
formed very striking contrast to the
spripg-lik mildness of the three or four
days.
