HUNTINGTON.
NATHANIEL RUDD.


 Nathaniel Rudd, the subject of this sketch, was a native of Huntington and was born in the large white house on the west side of the green just north of the Congregational church, which was formerly the old Rudd homestead. It is now owned by Mrs Charles Etzel. MT Rudd has al ways had deep interest in the Huntington Old Home Association and has con- tributed to it every year, either by his presence or by sending very interest ing letter. The following letter was tary of the Old Home Association, and was written by his brother, William Henry Rudd. Nathaniel Rudd died at Chelsea, Mass, October 23, 1906. The letter follows:
 South Natick, Mass.
 January IA, 1907. MT E. J. Buckingham, Secretary
 Huntington Old Home Association. Dear Sir: I have your favor asking if I can furnish some particulars which may be of general interest, con- corning my late brother, Nathaniel Rudd, who passed away in Chelsea, Mass, October B, 1906, and I gladly comply with your request.
 He was born in Huntington, April 8, 1881. His father, HeZekiah Rudd, was born in part of Windham called Scotland in 1781, and graduated from Yale in 1906. His life was devoted to teaching and he was repeatedly styled an advanced educator fully 50 years ahead of his time. His English and Classical school, located in Hunting ton for many years previous to 184O
The Newtown bee., 1907-02-01

and designed chiefly to preparing boys for college, was widely and favOrably known and may still be remembered by some of the older inhabitants. He died in 1868
 Nathaniel Rudd's mother was Mary Eliza Coggeshall, born in Newport, R. l., in 1902, and died in Chelsea, Masso in 1871. His eldest brother, William Henry, (the author of this sketch) was born in 1929. Another brother, Fred erick, was born in Huntington in 1884 and died in 1836 His little grave is in the Huntington village churchyard. A sister, Emily Post Rudd, (named af- ter~FmiIy Post of HuntingtOn) was born there in 1887. Another sister, Abigail. (named after a half-sister who Long Hill and who died in 1838) was born in Huntington, February, 1889, and both are still living in Chelsea, Mass, where, during the greater part of their lives they have been teachers in the public school.
 In 184O, the entire family moved from Huntington to Stratford, and in April, 1847, Nathaniel first came to Boston, and entered the employment of Crockett & Brewster, one of the old period. He was natural born artist, and in the late forties he began to de- vote his little leisure to wood engrav- ing. In the early fifties he resigned his position with o. & B. and entered a leading wood engraving establish after which he was for several years connected with the American Tract Society of Boston, in illustrating thelr various publications. When more modern methods, he devoted himself to oil painting, and quite suc- cessfully, producing many fine pie lures, and also giving instruction in the art.
 He first came to Chelsea in the fall of 1S47, (the same year that he first with the Winnisimet Congregational church. In 1869, he purchased the house which he so long occupied, while it was yet in process of construction, and had it finished to suit himself and | wife. Here he passed the remainder of his days and here all his children, | (now living) were born. In 1904. he | met with a miShap which rendered | him cripple for life, and he was ever after confined to crutches or canes. He was man of singular purity of life, and a most consistent and exemplary Christian. His death was quiet and peaceful, and he passed away with an
 unfaltering trust in glorious immor- taliJy.
 He leaves, besides the brother and
 two sisters already mentioned, five |
 large circle of friends to mourn his de- parture.
 The last letter which he sent to the | Huntington Old Home Association, and which received such close atten, l tion when read. was written, praGti
 cally, in his last illness, and when real 1 ly too feeble to make the effort. Bott 1 he and I always entertained the
 strongest affection for the town of oul bovhood, which the busy cares of oul
 weakened, and among the delusive
 hopes of all these years, especially oul
 latter ones, was the hope that some
 day we would both be permitted tt
 visit again, together, those ''scenes o1
 our childhood" so indelibly impressed
 upon our memories, that more thar
 three score years and ten have not, 1T
 the slightest degree, obliterated them Yours Very Truly,

The OUTLOOK.
The Richest

The Richest Man We have been
 In America. apt to think
 that John D. Rockefeller with his mill lions made in oil was the richest man in America; but now the investigators of rich men tell us that there is an other man whose wealth puts Rocke- feller's millions in the shade and make his fortune look like six cents. The new rich man is millionaire and his name is Frederick Weyerhaeuser and he lives in St Paul, Minnesota. His wealth is in timber land and 1t IS said that his holdings are in the states of Washington, Oregon, Wisconsin and Minnesota. He is one of the lumber barons of the Northwest and 1t is esti- mated has a hold on 30 million acres of>1Qdable timber. In other words, he owns 50 thousand square miles o1 woods, tract six times as large as the state of New Jersey. And much of this property was acquired in ways that will not stand the light. MI Weyerhaeuser came to this country from Germany when he was an 18-yea1 old boy and started in to make 8 liv. ing without cent of capital except his wits and his bare hands.

BEDDING.
A SERIES OF ACCIDENTS.

Last week Wednesday, F. Miller, who lives in Sanfordtown, started out to take sleigh ride. As he was go- ing up the bill near Miss Nellie Bar tram'S his horse stopped and he got out to start him, when to MT Miller's surprise he started Cn a run, leaving MT Miller behind. The horse ran down the road towards James Fair child's and when just below his house the sleigh collided with a heavy road wagon. The horse freed itself and ran mile or more before it was cap tured and taken home. The next day MT Miller hitched up his horse and went after the sleigh and just as he had it nicely fastened behind the wag- on the horse started and ran upon the bank, Overturning the wagon and sleigh. MT Miller succeeded in stop ping the horse and after a few min utes got the wagon and sleigh righted again and stepped back to get the seat which had fallen out, when the horse started, leaving MT Miller behind, and did not stop till he reached his home where he went safely into the barn with both the wagon and sleigh right side up. Fortunately no bones were broken but the sleigh was somewhat disabled. Everything else escaped un- injured.

A SPEEDY AND
PERMANENT CURE

ave express to you herewith our best
thanks Tor the cure Of our baby from
eczema. The eczema appeared when
the child was three months old. We
applied to several doctors and hospitals,
each Of which gave US something differ
ent every time, but nothing brought re-
lief. "A physician recommended a salye
which we threyf into the fire after two
DAYS use as the eczema became worse
so that the baby scratched his face. AT
last, one Of our friends recommended to
US Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Oint-
ment A few days afterwards improve
ment could be noted. Since then we
have used nothing but Cuticura Soap
and Cuticura Ointment, and now the
baby is six months old and isquite cured.
All that we used was one cake Of Cuti-
cura Soap and two boxes Cuticura ONT
rnent, costing il al Sips. Even the
poorest man can pay that instead OF
throwing it into the doctors lap. 1
myself only make twelve dollars week
Is q teanster, but J. recommend the
Cuticura Remedies stronglyto all moth
ers whose children suffer from such dis
eases. They are cheap, harmless and
good. e. r. Kara and Wife, 343 East
