Il. Paine of Xenia, H., now in his SD
year, who came from his home, unac-
companied, arriving here Friday morn
ing, to visit again the scenes of his child
hood and to meet two or three whom he
knew when a boy but whom he never
expected to see again. Capt, Paine was
a Brookfeld boy, though he knew CheI-
sea WELL having many relatives here,
among whom was his maternal grand
father, Adolphns Easterbrooks, who lived
on the west Hill on the farm now owned
by Warren Stearns.
1t was touching scene that the writer
witnessed when he went with Capt. Paine
to meet once more his friend of former
years, Mr.. Emery, who totally blind and
infirm with age, after being assured that
his visitor was the Sam Paine he used
to know, grasped his hand with all the
strength of his infrmities, when both Of
the 'old boys" overcome with JOY and
vet with grief, wept like little children.

over again their early days together,
which finally drifted into narration Of
their lives after separation, and culmi-
mated in the promise by Mr.. Paine to
repeat the visit year hence if both
were living and he able to come cast.
Later in the day and upon the street
he met another old acquaintance of his
youth, Erastus Bugbee, whom he had
not seen for rs years, now in his s5th
year. He also found cousins living here,
Mrs. w. p. Townsend, i. A. 0rdway,
Mrs. G. p Dickinson and B, A. Goodrich,
whom he had never met and who knew
nothing about him, and their meeting
was mutual pleasure. He went, Sun
day, to Williamstown 70 visit a play
mate of his youth, Luther II. j. Merrill,
now in his s4th year, from there going
to East Brookfeld to remain two or
three DAYS, when he viii proceed to New

cles and whose name appears after many

writing the biography Of Mark Twain.
MIR. Paine is remarkably well pre-
served in mind and body and is an ideal
type of the grand old man."
