When her surprise was over she proved a very admirable hostess. The daughter kept the secret well, much to the approval of the guests. A bountiful lunch was furnished by the ladies with ice cream for the last course.

Hungerford, was deprived of the enjoyment because of the sickness of her little daughter with the croup.

BEDDING.
GEORGE SHERMAN.


 The subject of this sketch was the youngest son of Ebenezer and Eunice Fayerweather Sherman, and had lived for more than 70 years in the vicinity of the Sherman homestead in the town of Bedding. He was born March 3, 1883. Having no better facilities for learning than the district school af- forded, his education was gathered more from reading and observation. Quite young he was bound out to 8 family named Heron living on Bedding Ridge, and thus passed his boyhood days. His father was desirous that he should become cobbler and when I6 years of age he was apprenticed to that trade to 8 man living in Easton. He soon tired of that work and returned to Bedding, where he learned the busi- ness of comb-making, which was then fourfshing industry on the banks of the Aspetuck. It was while working at this trade that he met and married his first wife, Betsy Peet of Monroe. After having been married about seven years his wife died, leaving four small children, Estelle, Georsianna, Eben- ezer and Isaac. At the breaking out of the Civil War he enlisted in Com pany B, 18th Regiment, and this regi- ment was sent to New Orleans to do duty under General Butler. His term
