Hampshire Conference of the
Methodist church. When the
Vermont conference was formed
in 1845 Mr.. Merrill was one of
the men to form the organization
and he was member of the Yer
mont conference from that time
to the day of his death, although
for the past twenty years he had
held superannuate relation. For
forty years the deceased was in
the active ministry filling charges
in Mooretown, Middlesex, Sharon
andEast Barnet, Thetford Centre,
Union Village, Bellows Falls,
Williamstown, Plainfield, Roches-
ter, Waitsfeld, st. Johnsbury
Center, Craftsbury, Woodstock.
Danville, Barre. Chelsea and
Williamstown from 1858 to 1861
inclusive he was presiding elder
of the old Danville district of the
Vermont conference and in 1860
he was delegate to the General
Conference. In 1S4S the deceased
married Miss Caroline Wiley,
who died in 1899. A daughter,
Mrs. J. B. Jeffords, and a son
Hon. Olin Merrill both of Enos-
burg Falls survive.
Emerson Stafford and Gilbert
Ross of, Readsboro, have search
ed for a week for Lester ].
Stafford, their cousin, who dis
appeared from the home of r. n.
Fairbank, in Guildford, last Oct,
but no trace of the missing man
has been found. John E. Gale,
administrator of Stafford's es-
tate. searched the same territory
with gang of men last autumn.
Mr.. Gale has a new theory in re-
gard to the disappearance. A
large amount of illegal shooting
of deer was done in Guilford last
autumn, and as Stafford was an
imbecile and afraid of strangers.
Mr.. Gale thinks he may have
been shot by mistake while run
ming through the woods and his
body disposed of, although there
is no evidence in support of the
theory, other than as stated.
Marcus Peck of Brookfield died
May 10 from the effects of shock
he received the week before. Mr..
Peck was a man widely known,
was connected with Mortified
National bank, and was proprie-
tor of the Fork Shop in Brook

second year. and leaves a wife,

ton, and daughter, Mrs. DR..
