James Randall who had lived with
Moses Randalfs family nearly all his
life died last week. He was taken sick
with the grip as had all the family.
James was apparently getting better
when his sickness took turn and
he died suddenly, supposedly from q
weak heart. He had always been an
invalid. He was 46 years of age arb
the Youngest son of the late William
Randall.
The late Robert CUNTS property was
all sold at auction last week Thursday,
and we learn the sale was remarkably
good one. Everything sold high except
the farm and that fetched much more
than it would have had it not been
located near the village The place
had been in the Quint family for more
than fifty years. Robert, Jr., was the
last member of the family, although
it is said there is brothers son sup
posed to be living VINO would be an
heir. He should be about fifteen years
old He went West with his mother
ten or twelve years ago. But if he
should not be found there are more dis
tant relatives who could be persuaded
to take what is left.
Frank Brown, who bought the Quint
property last week for 1,t12.50 will
fix up the house and move in at once.
He will work at his trade of tool shar-
pening and run the farm as a side
issue.

those who have occasion to travel the
main street. He is at present putting
in heavy granite wall at the back of
his house and has quite force of able
men employed. He surely has experi-
enced help as two or three of them are
at least upwards Of so years old; if
