WILLIAMSBURG.

The sun shone bright last Monday morn
ing while the sportsmen were out in full
galore. Many came home laden with game;
those that did not go anticipated going
the following day, but their ardor was
somewhat cooled, when they heard of
the accident that happened to John Martin,
one of our young glassblowers. 1t seems
that he and Oscar Davis went out cunning
for quail AS some of the birds few up
Davis must have become excited, for he
blazed away, not noticing where his partner
was standing The whole load entered the
legs of Martin just above the knees. 1t is
reported that the case is somewhat serious.
One of our humorists says, that Davis shot
at quail but hit Martin.
James Stinson probably has the largest
and finest lot of marketable poultry in this
vicinity.
Maurice Rainier has some fine Silver
Laced Wyandotte cockerel. Any one de-
string this strain will do well to give him a
call
John R. Downer has built, what he calls
a hermitage; while in fact, it is not overly
pretentious house, sort Of a retreat, back
along the swamp, better known as Squan-
kun Branch. Just what his ideas are it is
not possible to tell, but it is rumored that
he is, or is contemplating, writing book.
So the public can be prepared for some
literary gem in the near future. There is
an old saying that there is room at the top,
so who knows but what Williamstown,
may produce a Thackeray, a Goldsmith,
Cooper, Dickens, etc. There is no tell
ing these days to what great nights man
may soar. 1t reminds one of the lines of
Longfellow, when he says in his psalm of
Life::' Great nights by great men reached
and kept, were not attained by single
flight but they while their companions
slept, were toiling upward in the night"
