LIBERTY.
Quite a number of people from abroad
are in town, some to spend the summer and
others to spend vacations OF few weeks.
Among them are Prof. Peck of Concord,
n. H., who recently bought an island in the
lake. He is making his home at VIII
Hurd's... Mr.. Gardner and wife OF How
ard, r. l., are spending a few weeks with
Mrs. Gardner's mother, Mrs. Perkins, IN
this village. Mr. Charles Perkins, also OF
Howard, is with them. Miss Ellen Hurd,
daughter of L. F. Hurd, formerly OF this
village, now of Howard, r. l., came with
the party and is stopping with L. c. Morse
and family.... L. Cargill, having passed
a successful examination at the Tufts Den
tai college, Boston, graduated with honors
and received his diploma, June 18th, is now
Dr. Cargill. He thinks of locating in Rum
ford Falls Ralph l. Morse, a student at
the law school of Yale College, New Ha-
ven, Ct, returned home Friday. We could
say more on this subject, but Ralph's ex-
treme modesty forbids. We will say, how
ever, that if he has learned to hook clients
as we'll as he hooks trout he is all right On
the day after his arrival he caught y of the
speckeled beauties. "A part of the Pulsi-
fer family of New York arrived in town
Saturday. Capt. p. and his wife and son
Charles will be here in about ten days..
Game Warden w. l. Neal has been in this
vicinity the past three days. He was sent
here by Commissioner Carleton to look
after the illegal shooting of deer reported
, by some person unknownut after a
thorough investigation he could find no
thread on which to found even suspicion.
80. The erection of the three buildings in
this village has absorbed all the carpenters
in this neighborhood and any one wishing
carpenter to do lesser job is unable to
find one. E. Grass is doing we'll and good
hay crop is among the possibilities notwith-
standing the recent severe drouth.
wINTERPORT.

ted themselves satisfactorily. At the upper

The A class was the graduating class.
They all did we'll and will enter the gram
mar school next term. The graduating ex-
ercises of the Grammar school, taught by
Miss Blanche Shaw, were held in Union
Hall Friday evening, and it is safe to say
that no event which has taken place for
years more deeply interested the people of
| this town. The stage was tastefully deco
rated with the class colors, pink and white,
class motto, cut flowers, etc. Printed pro-
grams were distributed the music was fine,
and the whole affair was an immense sue
cess, and creditable alike to pupils, teach
er and the superintendent who has taken SO
much interest in the schools. The hall
was densely packed, and all felt that Win
terport has a right to be proud of her
schools. The program was as follows:
