SchoolhoY at Sixty,

A man who is at least 50 years OF
age. and probably somewhat over that,
has just commenced going 10 school In
the first primary class In the Hefteron
district Cnmpden township. His story is
a very strange one, About nifty years
ago, although the date cannot be det-
nitely ascertained. he is known TO have
been an inmate OF the county poorhouse'
but no facts are now remembered by any
one as 10 how he came TO be placed
there.
Forty-nye years ago the poorhouse was
DESTROYED by FIRE and In consequence OF a
law that was passed that same year tnis
man, boy then about 10 years OF age
must have been turned over TO the au-
thorIties of Campden township. for there
ia a recital in the county books OF the
disposal made OF the poor, and TINS SHOWS
that "one boy was turned over 10 LAMP
den. and IL is supposed that this man
was that boy
The first definite date In regard to him
appears fifteen years later, at which time
