Ear was desirable shopmate. He was full of fun and an inimitable mimic. His drollery caused much laughter and made time pass pleasantly. In speaking of his age he says: "I arrived in Bethel 81 years ago. The house up on the corner is where l spent my first night. My father, built his house by odd jobs when he got day off. I can remember my grandfather, Capt Daniel Hickok, who was an old Revolutionary soldier. He made daily visits to our house to see my mother and his grandchildren. " MT Barnum was educated in the dis trict school of the town and usually at tended the Sunday school. He learned the hatters' trade and spent two years or more sailor boy and visited many parts of the world. During the Civil war he enlisted into the United States service as musician and served through campaign and then took an honorable discharge. MT Barnum is a member of Eureka lodge of Masons in
  panions in life but has no children to cheer him down life's journey. With few exceptions he enjoys very good health and is still Spry and able to take care of his house and get his own meals. Ear, as he is generally called by near friends, wishes to have his old comrades call. It cheers him up and makes time pass more pleasantly along.
