Frank Morgan Is at work harvesting

his doing any manual labor during the

What restless creatures we mortals
be, at least many of US. When We came
here thirty-one years ago, E. q. Pike
had just been married and settled on a
farm in an adjoining neighborhood. A
few years later he sold out and moved
just over the line into Woodstock, where
he has lived until the present time.
Now it seems he has purchased the
George Kinsley farm, so called, in
Greenwood, so that the prospect now Ia
that he will become citizen of this
town again in the near future.
Mr.. Pike has seen trouble in common
with most other people. His first wife
was the youngest daughter of Elon G.

married the Widow Swan, by whom he
has had more children and buried one
of them year or two ago. During the
last few years Mr.. Pike has been engag.
ed In the pulp wood business, apparent
ly with good success and given good
satisfaction to his patrons.

quainted-twenty-nine to be exact-and
already two more have gone down the
valley since the new year came in-John
Hicks and Hattie P. Bailey. Such a
record is not very pleasant one to
keep, but tends to show how rapidly we
are dropping off. Dea. VIM. Berry, one
of the number on the list, was the sec,
ond son of Teri Berry, and belonged to a
family of five children, four sons and one
daughter, and in his death the family
becomes extinct. One daughter sur
