NEWS OF THE ORANGES.

When the State Grange next meets in annual
session they will miss Martin B. Hunt of Bel
mont. grand old man whom everybody loved.
He was pioneer in Grange work in Maine and
was for six years master and IL years treasurer
of the State Grange.-Augusta New Age.
Comet Grange, Swanville, is making exten-
sive repairs on its hall. They have laid fine
hard wood floor 42x3O, made their stage l2x30
and added two good cloak rooms. Mrs. E. c.
Bowling of Maiden, Mass. made the grange
present of $25 to help on the good work. We
are more than grateful for the generosity of
our friends and hope to see them soon in our
new hall.-R. G. Seeley, Sec'y.
Mystic Grange has adopted the following
resolutions of respect:
Whereas, Death has entered the fold of our
grange again and taken our beloved brother
and charter member, Martin B. Hunt, a true,
tried and earnest patron; therefore, be 1t
Resolved, That while we deplore his loss from
our temporal membership we are consoled with
the belief that he has been transferred to that
great Spiritual Grange where no candidate is
rejected but all are advanced according to merit
Resolved, That tender to the daughter
and grandchildren our sincere and heartfelt
sympathy in this their hour of great trouble
May they be sustained by the knowledge that
their loved one is only surrendered for time;
that he has but gone before to prSpare for
them a welcome when they are called upon to
follow him to that heavenly home where neith-
er sickness nor sorrow ever enter.
Resolved, That as token Of respect to our
departed brother our charter be draped in
mourning for thirty days; that copy OF these
resolutions be sent to the family OF brother
Hunt; also to the Republican Journal, and that
they be placed upon our grange records as a
tribute to his memory.
We loved him but he left us like some sweet
vision nigh,
That only came and blest US, then passed for
ever by;
But in yon mystic bower unshaded by care,
He's resting mid the flowers, that bloometh
ever there.

81 AND "a.
Two Well Known Belfast Citizens Observe
Their Birthdays.


Friday, April 3Oth, was the Gath birthday of
Augustus Perry, who by common acclaim is ac-
corded the title of "Belfast's Grand Old Man" 3"
He is still active, mentally and physically,
regular in his attendance Sunday at the Con-
lyregational church as well as at the Thursday
evening prayer meetings, in which his voice is
often heard. After retiring from business he
held the position of money order clerk in the
Belfast post Office for many years and retired
about four years ago. Last Friday, as on his
95rd birthday, he had many callers, his daught-
ers Mrs C. o. Poor and Miss Julia Perry re-
ceiving his friends at the Perry homestead, 10
Cedar street, and he was the pleased recipient
of beautiful flowers and other gifts. A family
dinner at which four generations were pres
ent ended the observance the passing of the
94th milestone in life's journey.
Sunday, May End, was the Saith birthday of
Hon. VIM. B. Swan, who is still actively en-
gagged in business as President OF the Swan &
Sibley Co., President of the City National
Bank and President of the Waldo County Hos
pital association Mr.. Swan expected to have
spent his birthday with his daughter, Mrs.
Walter B. Kelley, in Minneapolis Minn, but
unfortunately slipped on an icy step few
weeks ago, receiving injuries which confined
him to the house for while, but from which
he has so far recovered as to attend to his
many business engagements. Among his cal
lers Sunday were the officers of the City Ma
tional Bank with which he has long been con-
4ected as director and president, and there were
many floral offerings from friends. Mr.. and
Mrs. Swan took dinner with his nephew, Mr..
Charles S. Bickford, on Cedar street. walking
there and to his home later.
