The popularity of the turbxn hat is
greater than ever. it is such becom-
ing shape and does duty for so many
occasions.
Taking it all round, the millinery Of
1905 has decidedly changed from any
thing seen last summer. The beautiful
lines of the old masters have given
place to small, compact styles.
The illustration shows a smart hat of
nut brown fancy straw trimmed with
shaded bow OF soft ribbon toning
from brown to pale yellow. Cream
and brown roses encircle the crown,
while the bandeau at the back is lifted
by quillings of the shaded ribbon.

A CHAPTER IN HISTORY.

The Hitchcock family has played an i'm
portant part in forming the history OF the
town of Westfield. The Hitchcocks OF
WestfieId are representatives of family
ancient in ancestry and legion in numbers.
It is understood that the Hitchcocks en-
tered England with William the Conquer
or in the eleventh century. The Hitch
cocks located in Wiltshire. There appear
to have been two families of the name in
Wiltshire, each possessing a coat OF arms.
Several mem bers of the Hitchcock family
came to America in early times. The one
however, in whom we are interested espe-
cially is Luke Hitchcock, who was by
trade a shoemaker. The exact date OF his
birth or of mis- arrival in this country we
do not know. 1t appears that he was here
as early as 1914 for on July 1 in that year
he took the freeman's oath in New Haven,
Conn. He was a captain at Crown Point
the following year. 1t appears that as
early as 1646 he had located in Weathers-
field, Conn. He had large family OF chill
dren. From this date the family history
is easily traced to the time in June 1903
when Medad Hitchcock purchased of
Elisha Phillips of Oneida Co, n. Y, Lot
No. 80 in the town of Westfield for five
hundred dollars according to the deed
Lot No. 80 stands in the third tier of lots
west from Troy line and the fifth tier OF
lots north from Lowell line. 1t includes
the most of the ground where the village
stands and considerable portions of the
farms of Eugene and Hiram Miller. Capt
Medal Hitchcock moved from Brimfield
to his new possessions in Westfield in 1904.
The town had been inhabited six years
and organized two years. His log house
stood about one fourth Of mile south of
the present village common. He built the
first frame barn in town which barn is used
now by Hiram Miller, though it has been
moved several rods from its original site.
Capt. Hitchcock held various town offices
and represented the town several times in
the legislature. He died in 1920
The captsin's oldest son, Thomas, died
without heirs. The oldest daughter,
Azubs, married David Barber before COM
! ing to Westfield and moved here in 1903.
( She was the grandmother of Henry, Lyman
ard David Hitchcock and Anne Barber and
! Mrs. Chss. Cook of West Glover. The next
son, Heber, married lydia WinsIow aud OF
their three children, EIviEa married Herod

4 Lawyer Accused.

Colby Stoddard, Barton Landing
LAWYER. whose advertisement for the
Collection of overdue accounts, bills,
notes, etc, appeared in the last issue
of the MONITOR, has been accused of
being unprofessional. The only
charge against him is that he adver-
tises his business in the local papers.
Hisown answer to this accusation is as
follows:
If it is wrong for me to advertise
nv business, then will plead guilty.
One branch Of my business consists of
the general practice of law. The
other is making collections of overdue
bills, notes and accounts. The first
do not advertise. l lay no claim to
fame because of my legal ability. [
ask no man to trust his litigation to
me. A general law practice requires
much wisdom and dignity, and adver-
Using might show lack OF the re-
ouired amount of dignity. In the col
lection business however dignity is
not of so much Importance. l have
found that ginger is better for col!ec-
ton purposes than dignity. 1t pays
larger dividends and gives better sat
isfaction to my clients.
There is no good reason why l
should not inform the readers OF this
paper that [ am willing and able to
make their collections for them. The
churches advertise their Sunday serV-
ices: banks advertise their ability TO
invest your money; schools ana
colleges advertise their ability 20
teach YOUR children; doctors spit
their practice and advertise their
specially and even lecturers advertise
their ability TO instruct and entertain,
and vet no one questions their ability
or dignity. Now 1 have spent eight
wears of the best part of my life and
$1,000 in cash to at myself for my
work and it does not hurt my con-
sejence to tell the people of Orleans
oounty that | am now at their service
in making collections of overdue &C
oonnts and furthermore | will guar
antee perfect satisfaction both in the
manner of my service and in the
amount of my charges and if l do mo-
succeed in making your collection
will make YOU no charge whatever.
Why should not so fair an Offer be
communicated 70 the public?
Now what have SAID or myself is
equally true OF several other young
LAWYERS in Orleans county. | am only
one of the several. l would nave yop
bear in mind however that have had
excellent success in making collec'
lions. The only reason why shoulc
have your collection business is that
/ have asked you for it aud have
promised TO guarantee satisfaction
botn in services and charges. Let nae
make your collections and you may
be the sole auditor of my charges.

VILLAGE OF BARTON LANDING.

The firm of Taplin & Rowell, deal
ers in horses, wagons, sleighs, mar
nesses, wood, lumber and real estate
do a business of 100000 anruaily.
Twombly & Cotton, wholesale and
retail dealers in groceries and haro-
ware, have an annual business otaoou5
$4,000. Whipple, French & Co.,
hardware, furniture and plumbing,
have a business of from 1000 to $780,
600. Hoyt & Harris, gents clotnlng'
boots, shoes and rubbers, DO s3G,OOo.
Beede & Cowles deal in groceries ana
dry goods and s35 900 is an estimate
of their output. o. W. Locke deals IN
the same lines of merchandise and
probably does as large business.
q. s. Dodge buys cattle and all klnos
of live stock and last year paid the
farmers of this county more than SZo,-
700 for their products. Dan. Bucnan-
an has out more than $50 miles o.
wire and operates over 900 telephone
instruments. At the lowest price per
instrument he has business of more
than $4,000. Frank Churchill sells
phosphate and farm implements and
buys maple sugar. Last season his
business amounted to $4,000. Dean
& Matthews, dealers in feed, grain,
ETC., have put out about $40, 900 worth
of mill products during the past year.
Doubtless Brown & Skinner do as
much. Foster J. Kinney does a drug
business of $4,000 as does Henry s.
Webster, not including the postoffice
business. F. D. Clement, jeweler and
optician, does a business of $4,000,
Dodge & Dean, milliners do $4,000.
E. FL. Lothrop, proprietor of the Val
ley House and livery stable, conducts
most satisfactory business in his
line and his business amounts to
about $4,000 annually.
The total figures already given are
about $1,26O,0OO. The remainder of
the 81. 10000 transacted here annu-
ally is the business of four doctors,
five BARRIERS, two lawyers, two clergy
men, teachers, two railroad offices,
blacksmith's shops, meat markets,
repair shops, dressmakers, carpen-
tiers, contractors and many other
firms that have not been mentioned
and the figures of which we need not
give individually.
The figures we have given above
are not mere estimates for the pur-
pose of booming business, but the
great majority of them are obtained
by computation from books kept il
the regular course of business. In al
cases where we have given figures
they are authorized. Our compari
sons of course may not be eorrec
estimates, but are near enough not tt
materially effect the 81, 500, 900 bust
ness done annually in Barton Landing
