Caledonia county is the only lily white
county in the state as the vote for the
license bll shows and it will be closely
watched through the year to see how the
law is enforced in the II dry" towns
st. Johnsbury citizens have already taken
steps to provide for the sale of liquor in
the drug stores and other towns in the
county will undoubtedly do likewise. As
the CALEDoNIAN has previously remarked
the open saloon is the most Objectionable
feature OF the new law and we are glad
there is one county in the state where
they cannot exist for henext 2 months

Barre was the first place in Vermont
to appoint license commissioners and the
mayor appointed a doctor, an editor,
and an Episcopal clergyman. The latter
felt called upon to resign and a manufac.

citizens Of Barre have started off well
and such a commission will undoubtedly
see that the new law is enforced.

Obituary.

We feel sorry to report the death of
Edward Manderville an old settler of
Delaware Co. and an honest, upright
and worthy citizen, who died at Della
ware or near there, Feb. 2, at the home
of his daughter, Mrs. Dave Paris, at
the age of rs years, months and one
day, after an illness of perhaps three
months or more.
Mr.. Vaudeville was born at Penn
brook, Geneaseo county, N. Y, and at
the age 3 years went with his parents to
Cayuga Co., Illinois, where he lived I'm.
til he was 10 years of age when they
removed to Winnebago Co., Illinois,
where he remained IS years and during
thatperiod became acquitted with Hiss
Martha Dixon, whom he married, and
some time after they became residents
of Delaware Co. and later of Delaware
Center, where he resided until his
death.
This union was blessed with three
daughters and one son, Mrs. John Hef-
ner, of Waterloo, Mrs Dave Paris and
Miss Kittie Vaudeville of Delaware
and Judd Vaudeville, of Waterloo.
Edward Manderville also leaves one
brother and one sister to mourn his
loss, Isaac Vaudeville of Winnebago,
Illinois, and Mrs. Lee Chapel of North
Manchester, the only surviving mem
bers of his fathers family. But "God
shall wipe away all tears from their
eyes, and there shall be no more sorrow
nor crying; neither shall there be any
more pain, for the former things are
passed away"
The departure of this dear one has
made sad vacancy. 1t is true indeed
that these vacancies by death cannot be
filled. If the aching void is filled at all
it must be with the bright shining rays
of the Sun of righteousness.
| Many circle will be incomplete at
the end of the year, for the past year,
like all its predecessors, has made for q
great many families record of sor-
rows. Unmixed mercles are not the
lot of any in this life, and when the
curtain is drawn aside, SO that the light
of Heaven can shine upon the dispense
tions of providence that seem the dark
