fine translucent catgut are aware that
the almost unbreakable substance that
holds the hooks against the fiercest
struggles of the struck fish comes from
ilkworms. The principal center OF
the manufacture of this kind of cat
gut is the island Of Procida in the bay
of Naples. but most of the silkworms
employed are raised near Tore An

catelpillars are killed just as they are
about to begin the spinning Of cocoons

Real Estate Agents and General
Brokers.

Lang & Kendall of Woodsyille,
N. H, have established a real es-
tate agency and general brokerage
business in that place and further
particulars concerning the same will
be found in their advertisement on
the sixth page. The members of
the firm are Fred B. Lang, an attor-
sney and counsellor at law, and
George H. Kendall, register of deeds
for Grafton county. Both are we'll
known and reliable men and any
business placed in their hands will
receive prompt and careful attention
and will be handled for the best pos
sible advantage of their patrons. If
you have property to sell it would
be well to make it known to this
firm. They have methods of reach
ing and are in constant communi-
ctaion with people who are looking
for real estate and you may have
what some of them want. They
know just where there is a demand
for property and who is buying. If
you want to buy they can probably
find just what you want. They pay
special attention to farms, timber
lands and summer resorts. Read
their ad on the sixth page and then
if you have any property to sell or
want to buy, make your wants
known to Lang & Kendall and the
chances are they will accomplish for
you the desired result.

There was not a man in Brattle-
boro, or one of the many in our state
who have in some way come in con-
tact with Gen. Estey, who did not
receive the news of his death with a
feeling of genuine sorrow. And no
greater tribute can be paid a man
who has taken so active and posi-
tive part in the social and po1iti-
cal life of the past 80 years.
The funeral of Gen. Estey was
held Monday afternoon in the First
Baptist church.
Prayer was offered at the house at
noon, after which the body was TAX
en- to the church, where it lay in
state until 2 O'Clock, the former
members of General Estey's staff
and the members of Col. J Gray Es-
tey's staff acting as guard of honor.
The Rev. F. E. Marble, Phi. D.,
pastor of the church, delivered the
funeral sermon before an audience
that filled the church to overflow
ing. Prof. F. c. F. Cramer, organ
ist of the church, and Prof. j. Ed
gar Kearn, of Philadelphia, presid
ed at the organ. The singing was
by the Estey chorus of young wom-

O'Clock, suffering greatly from
an attack of distressed breathing.
He said to his wife that the end had
come, and he was going to die. She
tried to dissuade him from the idea,
but he persisted, and bade her an
affectionate goodbye, saying Sim
ply, "It is His will" These were
his last words.
Col J. Gray Estey, his son, was
called, and found his father labor
ing heavily for breath. He at once sat
beside him on the bed, took him in
his arms and drew him upon his
shoulder. Almost instantly he re-
laxed, gave up the 1abored breath
ing, drew off his finger ring which
he wished Harry Estey to have,
handed it to Mrs. Estey, gave his
son an affectionate caress of the
hand, and dropped away. He had
been awake only about 30 minutes.
General Estey was an active par
ticipant in the proceedings at Tues
days March meeting, and went
home greatly pleased with the fact
that the town had voted the use of
Festival hall for the Estey Guard
drills. He was the president of the
Vermont society of Sons of the Am
erican Revolution, had been active
in promoting it's membership, and
one of the last pieces of work done
by him Thursday afternoon was to
sign a large number of certificates
of membership. His oldest grand
son, Jacob, son of Col. and Mrs. ].
Gray Estey, was seven years old FRI
day. General Estey's last act be-
fore retiring Thursday night was to
have a birthday present put under
the boys pillow where he would
find it on waking in the morning.
The fact has not been generally
known that General Estey has suf-
fered to a considerable extent during
the winter from difficult breathing,
caused by heart trouble. He suffered
the worst attack while in Washing
ton about three weeks ago to attend
the dinner given by Senator Proctor
to Secretary Shaw. He has himself |
had premonitions of fatal result, |
saving to his family that he had the |
same trouble which his father had, |
and should die in the same way.
Neither his family nor his physi-
clan, however, considered his situa-
ton precarious, and they have be-
lieved that, with proper attention
to diet, he would be relieved of the
accumulation of adipose tissue about
the heart.
