LOYAL LANGDON WRIGHT.
Died Saturday Night at the
Ace Of ct.


Loyal Langden Wright died at the
home of his son, Samuel S. Wright, in
Middlebury at 10:30 Saturday night in
the 9th year of his age. Mr.. Wright,
although failing in health for two years,
had been confined to the bed only three
weeks and death came from old age.
Until two years ago few men of 60 were
more vigorous and active than he. The
funeral was held at the home of his old
er son, George H. Wright, in Weybridge,
Monday afternoon, and burial was in Ma
pie Grove cemetery in that town.
Mr.. Wright recalled the history of
three generations He distinctly re-
called the days when some of the princi-
pal streets of Middlebury were only part
of wilderness. He was born in Wey-
bridge, June 1S, 1911, on the old Silas
Wright homestead, purchased by his
grandfather in the year 1795. He lived
on that farm until he was 30 years old,
when he moved to Cornwall. He lived
in that town sixty years, going to Mid.
dlebury five years ago. He had followed
the occupation of farmer all his life.
During the time he lived in Cornwall he
was justice of the peace for twenty-five
years ard a member of the school COM
mittee for twenty years. He was also
road commissioner cf that town for
twenty-five years.
When he was 1S years old Mr.. Wright
joined the Congregational church and
claimed the honor of being the oldest
living member of that church in Addison
county.
Mr.. Wrights ancestors came direct
from England in the year 1914 and set
tied in Amherst. Mass. His GRANDPA
theirs, Seth Langdon and Samuel Wright,
were captains in the Continental army
under George Washington. Loyal Wright
was relative of the late Gov. Slas
Wright. of New York, who died in the
year lS47. Three years after his death
the beautiful monument which now
stands in Weybridge was unveiled in his
honor. During the unveiling, Loyal
Wright had as his guests, Gen. John E.
Wool, who delivered the principal ad
dress of the day, and Martin Van Buren,,
eighth president of the United States.
Loyal Wright had many interesting re-
collections of his uncle, but his great
pleasure was to declare that he cast his
first vote for Andrew Jackson for presi-
dCHl anu NOItQ lOT every DeIlOCTdL-
ic candidate since.
Gov. Silas Wright, his uncle, was born
in Amherst, Mass, May "a, ITS, and
died at Canton, N. Y, August 81, 1S47.
He fitted for college at Middlebury in
the Addison county grammar school and
was graduated from Middlebury college
with the class of 1915.
Mr.. Wright was twice married, had six
children, four of whom survive him:
George h. Wright, of Weybridge; Mrs.
c: B. Blake, of Albany, N. y; Mrs.
Chapman Smith, of Port Henry, N. Y;
and Samuel S: Wright, of Middlebury.
The funeral of Loyal L. Wright was
held at the house here Monday afternoon
at o'clodk. Prayer was said at the
house and at the church in Weybridge
by Rev. George Bailey. Burial was in
eybridge The bearers were Henry
and Alvah Wright, grandchildren of Mr..
Wright, and Samuel and George Wright,
his sons,

A SHOCKING AFFAIR.
Miss Faith Powers Is Drowned and
Her Escort Narrowly Escaped.

A gloom has been cast over the entire
community by the shocking tragedy
which occurred here on Saturday even
ing.
Faith Powers, '07, and Ivan Winslow
| 'OS, were boating, when the boat cap
sized. when opposite the Lyman ice
house, throwing both into the water,
which, few feet below this point, is
very rapid. Mr.. Winslow did everything
that was possible to save Miss Powers,
but she was swept downward through
the rapids and over the falls.
The river, due to the recent rains, was
much swollen and the resulting swift
current permitted only some four min
utes in which to act from the time the
accident took place. Winslow was res
cued in seni.conscious condition a
short distance above the bridge.
Immediately after the report spread
search for the body of Miss Powers be-
gan and was maintained by both town
and college parties until Monday noon
when the body was found in shallow
water off the shore back of the Brandon
Italian marble works.
The remains were escorted to the train
on Monday evening by the entire college
body from the home of Miss Powers's
aunt, Miss Tinney, on Washington street.
The funeral was held on Wednesday af
ternoon at $3.50 o'clock, and members of
Miss Powers's sorority, Pi Beta Phi, to-
gether with representatives of the diff
ferent fraternities, were in attendance.

An Expla n alton.

In connection with the sad drowning
accident have been quite severely crit
cised in various ways for owning and
letting this canoe. This was large
canvas canoe about II feet long and
has for several years been used on Otter
Creek and owned by several parties.
l had rented this canoe for the season
to two young men in college who are
quite expert with canoe, and they on
this particular evening let the unfor-
tunate young people take it because
there were no other boats to be had.
1t has been reported that it was the
same boat in which the sad accident at
Lake Dunmore occurred some three wears
ago. and again that it was the same kind
of boat taught at the same time.
These statements l wish to contradict.
The accident at Lake Dunmore was
from a row boat This canoe was NOT
like any of the canoes or row boats at
Moosalamoo Park, Lake Dunmore, moi
was it manufactured by the same con.
cern. Signed,

NOTABLE COTTON BALE.

The Manchester Ship Canal Company
has issued a circular telling OF the first
bale OF cotton TO be carried from Mem
phis 10 the port OF Manchester. The
bale. as IL happens. has an interesting
history. Some months ago the Mer-
chants and Farmers Cotton Company
Of Memphis built its own compress on
the Mississippi river. The compress was
completed last summer. and President
Roosevelt who favoTs all schemes for
the better utilization Of the waterways,
pressed the first bale turned out by the
company on October 4. The bale was
marked President Roosevelt" carried
by the Arkansas River Packing Com
pany 20 New Orleans, where IL was
placed on the direct Manchester Ley
land liner Albanian without once being
landed on the quay and taken across
the Atlantic direct to the port of Man
chester. The Merchants and Farmers
Cotton Company has presented the bale
10 the directors Of the Manchester Roy
al Exchange. who have posted a notice
on the boards Offering the bale for sale,
the proceeds to be given to the Man
chester Infrmary. This is the first bale
OF cotton TO go all the way BY water
from Memphis to Misunderstanding Or

Their Friends Lamented
But ASpirantS Found
Rewards They Sought.

Two young women who have made a
successful transition from the college
campus 10 the stage are az the COlum-
bia this week IN the Yankee Tourist"
They are Miss Flora ZabeIle and Miss
Helen Hale.
Their leap from things academic to
things theatric was tne occasion a few
years ago for a vail Of protest from
their friends who vocIferated that 'thc
stage is no place for a college girl, and
paeans and jubnatIon from the press
agents who worked the .'giTl-student-
actress" idea overtime for publicity pur-
poses.
There was one person, however, who
stood by Miss ZaDelle, when she first
used the Stage entrance. That was her
father-the Rev. DR.. N. Maagas3rian, OF
Chica goa thinking broad minded
preacher, whose ability has giy en- him
high standing in Chicago. He told his
daughter TO go ahead. She did, and still
is going.
Miss Hale, If induced to talk about
herself, will grow enthusiastic over the
old days st Wellesley, when she and
her chum. who later took the gtago
name OF Diamond Bonner, dreamed and
planned of histriOntc careers
They finally made the leap together.
