no means least, new bell has been in
stalled this week 1t was purchased from
the Blymer Bell company OF Cincinnati,
o., and weighs 800 pounds. The tones OF
the "old school bell' have been familiar
to at least three generations as 1t was
transferred from the old academy building
to the present building in 1858. The tol'
lowing taken from the treasurers records
may be interesting to many: AT spe.
ciai meeting of the board of trustees OF
the Brattleboro academy held April ID,
lS47 it was voted that a sufficient sum be
taken of the funds of the academy now in
the hands of the treasurer to defray the
expense of recasting the bell now in the
academy and Mr.. Admatha Dunklee was
appointed to cause the said bell to be re-
cast" and following that article is an.
other extract: AT the annual meeting of
the trustees of Brattleboro academy, Nov.
%, lS47 there was vote cast allowing
the bill of $500 for recasting the bell.
The bell has been in use up to the present
time. although it has been in bad condi-
ton during the last year as it became
cracked and its tones have been exceed
mgly disagreeable and caused many I'M
pleasant comments

no disposition to delay matters.
much has been said of the in
creas in travel to result from a lower

of all could such effect be expected
In the essentially agricultural sections.
Nothing Is said on the other side
Of the question. II "A lower ate in
