The following, appearing in a re
cent issue OF state paper, will be
read with regret: Zone day recently
while clearing the railing of ice at
Hotel Barton Mr.. Mears, the mana
ger, had the misfortune to so iniure
one eye as to put 1t out and the doc
tor gives him no hope of recovering
the sight of it. Mr.. Mears was push
ing the ice from the rail about the
piazza, when one foot slipped and the
end OF the broom handle hit him in
the eye.
The Lenox hotel at Montpelier is
closed and its management has
passed out of the hands of S G. Doty,
who has run it since the middle of
last February. Mrs. Doty left the
city short time ago and it is said
that the fact that she announced her
intention of remaining away, aid the
accumulation of small bills, are the
causes of the closing of the house.
Mr.. Doty says he feels certain he can
meet the bills through the disposal
of the furniture which he owns, most
of the creditors manifesting an incli-
nation to be lenient and give him
time to settle up. Mr.. Doty ascribes
Mrs. Doty's decision not to return to
overwork and encouragement about
their affairs. The hotel will probably
be opened soon by other parties. st.
