 MT, Williams was a prominent citi- zen of Granville. He was formerly commercial traveller for New York Japanese sugar store.
 The caVe-in was such as occurs tre- quently in the quarries which abound in Southern Vermont, but usually they happen in the night or give sufficient warning for all to escape. MT. Will Hams, president of the company. was on the pile Of waste when it fell and was not buried deep nor was his body badly distigured, but he was crushed internally. Foreman Cadwalder was taken out practically unnurt but Fore man Frazer Queen was probably fa- tally hurt. The rest of these buried were Hungarian laborers. It is thought none of them can be alive.

 Tommy Mulligan of the seventh grade, was absent from the classroom for one entire day. It would appear that he had played truant. for. un- known to Tommy. his teacher had spied him trudging homeward with pockets bulging suspiciously when she, too, was homeward bound that afternoon.
 But Tommy brought note Of ex- .use the next morning, which, of course would prove that he had been detained at home legitimately. The writing was hardly that of feminine hand, and the note appeared to have been writ len laboriously and with much plotting furthermore, the penmanship seemed to be strangely familiar to his teacher The note read as follows;
