was born in BrattleborO, Feb.
%, 1880. Col. Leavitt Hunts
grandfather, Jonathan Hunt ST.,
of Vernon, was ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
or of Vermont in 1894, and all of
the latter's four sons were men of
superior abilities who had large
influence in the early affairs of
the state. Col. Leavitt Hunts
father died in Washington, May
10, 1882, at the age of AZ years,
while serving his third term as a
member of Congress from the sec
ond congressional district. Of
five children of Jonathan Hunt,
Jr., only one survives, Miss Jane
Hunt OF New York City. Two of
Col. Leavitt Hunts brothers were
William Morris Hunt, the artist,
and Richard Morris Hunt, the
architect, two of the most emf
nent men in their respective pro-
fessions in the history of Amer
lea. Another brother, DR.. John
Hunt, who was educated abroad,
practiced medicine in Paris and
died in that city. Col. Leavitt
Hunt was taken abroad at an
early age and attended schools in
France and Switzerland. He
was graduated from the military
school at Thun, Switzerland. He
then went to Heidelberg, Ger
many, where he took the degree
of doctor of laws in 1852. At that
time he passed a winter in Egypt,
where he took the first photo
graphs ever taken of the pyra-
mids and other monuments and
temples. He returned to Ameri-
ca and entered the Harvard law
school, from which he was gradu-
d0qu0W SEA- OH 1881 u! pope
of the famous Porcelain Club. In
1861 he entered the United States
army, where he served as aide de
camp on the staff of General
Helntzelman and was breveted
colonel in the army of the Poto-
mac. He was afterward acting
adjutant general in Washington.
He engaged in business for a time
after the war, but for many years
his home had been in Weathers-
field, where he owned a valuable
estate. He lost the sight of one
eye while in the military service.
In 1880 the sight of the other eve
began to fail and the last twelve
years of his life he was blind. In
1860 he married Katherine Jarvis
of Weathersfield. She was the
daughter of William Jarvis, the
noted consul general of the Unit
ed States in Portugal in the nine
teenth century, who was the
pioneer in importing merinO sheep
into this country. Colonel Hunt
is survived by his wife and five

OF 1906, and which organized

OF Barre have shown their LOYALTY
ana confidence in this new enter
prise already by coming forward
and extending it their patronage
IN large measure. Quite a number
OF applications for insurance
have also been received from sur
rounding towns, since the infor-
nation went out that the com
pany was organized. The Gran
lite Mutual company is not pure
ly local, but will have the entire
state for its field. The company
has capital stock guarantee
FUND of 100000, authorized by
its charter for the protection of
pollcy-holders, of which $4,000
has been paid into the treasury
in cash. The corporation will
be managed by a board of direc-
tors comprising some of the best
business men in the vicinity of
Barre, there being twenty, all of
whom have qualified, according
to the laws of the state. All are
deeply interested in the welfare

The Strother brothers secured
a verdict Of not guilty in the
murder case. There was no deni-
al that they shot at Bywaters,
their brother-in-Iaw, with intent
to kill, when they murdered him,
but they killed him because he
had seduced their sister. The de-
Tense was the unwritten law and
in Virginia the unwritten law, if
proven, is as good as any law on
the statute book.

The Vermont Review, which
has issued two numbers has been
absorbed by the Vermonter, the
subscriptions being transferred
to the Vermonter, and the arti-
cles which were to appear in the
Review are to be published in
this magazine. This is, probably,
a wise arrangement. The Yer
monter is a finely edited state
magazine and the size of the state
does not warrant the publication
of more than one first-class maya
zine wholly devoted to its inter
ests.

There may be something of a
commotion in the Christian
Science Church over the law suit
just instituted by Mrs. Eddy's
son, George w. Glover, by her
first marriage, He claims that
his mother, the founder of Chris
tian Science, is not able to con
duct her own vast business in
terests and that a council, which
surrounds her at Concord, and the
managers of the Boston Church
keep her practically a prisoner
and run things to their own in
terests. There have been so
many rumOrs Of late, concerning
the health of the venerable
woman, that, perhaps, a law suit,
will settle the question of her
physical and mental condition.
Without much question, the PEG
pie of Concord seem to feel that
Mrs. Eddy is remarkably well
preserved, mentally and physical
ly, for a woman well toward the
nineties.

Senator Spooner's resignation is far
and away the most notable in Senate
history since that of Senator Edmunds
of Vermont in 1891. The distinguish
ment had gained a position second to
none as a leader and constitutional
lawyer, and he withdrew for very
much the same reasons which Mr..
Spooner gives the public. Mr.. Ed
munds could still have been in the
Senate had he wished to remain there,
for he is yet alive and younger than
the two Alabama senator's, Morgan and
Pettds. Many have wished most
earnestly that the Vermonter could
have remained in public life at least
a decade longer. The late Senator
Hoar lamented Mr.. Edmundss with
drawal to the very last. springfield

Read every one of the sermons
upon trading at home as they ap-
pear on the front page. They
will give you something to think
about. Perhaps, they will bring
to your minds ideas that never
lodged there before. 1t is so easy
to think the same thoughts and
to get into a rut that it will do
you good to look at your individ-
ual acts as influencing the COM
mercial life of the town. We all
owe a good deal to Bradford.

1t looks as if Nemesis was fast
upon the trail of William e. Cor
ry, the Pittsurg millionaire who
divorced his wife, whom he mar
ried in poverty and who lived and
worked with him from poverty to
wealth, for the actress Mabelle
Gilman. Rumor has it that Ma
belle Gilman has tired of him even
as he tired Of his wife, and that
she will not marry him. From
Wall Street comes the news that
he is soon to step from the posi-
ton of president of the Steel
Trust because his divorce case
brought too much notoriety to
the directors as it was so base a
desertiOn. The rose path is often
full of concealed thOrns.

The resignation Of John G.
SpoOner of Wisconsin, caused a
great surprise in the Senate
when it became known through
his letter to the Governor of his
State. Senator Spooner has serv-
ed the country with conspicuous
ability for sixteen years and now
feels that he owes it to himself
and his family to enter again
upon the practice of his profess
sion. 1t is the same old story,
the salary for government service
is not sufficient to hold men after
they have given a fair proportion
of their time to the public serv-
ice.

Congress is no more, but we
still have the politicians with us
so we will not feel the loss.
Vermont is well represented in
-junkets this spring and summer.
Representative Foster is off for
Panama and Senator Dillingham;
is to visit European countries
this summer to study the immi-
grafton problem, which is one of
his specialities. They are two
good men to get all there is out
of the trip and we shall have the
benefit of their study.

Vermont is now equipped with
a brand new State Fire Insurance
Co., The Granite Mutual Insur-
ance Co., by name, with head
quarters at Barre. 1t starts out
with able business men in charge
and with good capital stock, with
every sign of local support as well
as with gratifying signs of in
terest in other parts of the state.
Vermont should welcome every
new industry which keeps money
invested in the state while raising
its name in the business world.
May the new company make a sue
cess of the business.
