a happy affair for everyone. In behalf
of her friends c. A. Stanley presented
her with purse of money, and COM
fort bag containing numerous small
articles wrapped separately. She also
received several other gifts and many
beautiful flowers. In her own charming
way Mrs. Hartman thanked her friends
for their kindness, and music was en-
joyed and refreshments OF cake and coffee
served.
Mrs. Hartman does not look a day
over TO- but the records of Barnet show
that she was born in that town March
13, 1919, to Robert and Judith (Wallace)
Laird. Her father lived to be 88 and
her mother 93 years old. She was the
second of eight children, three of whom
are living, John of Spirit Lake, Iowa,
and Peter of Nyando, N. Y. In her
youth she helped her father on the farm
and spent much time spinning and
weaving, using between 95 and 100
pounds of wool every year, and also
spinning much fax. She taught 13
terms of school before her marriage, in
Cabot, Albany and Barnet. Recalling
her marriage to Charles B. Hartman of
Barnet in 1945, Mrs. Hartman says
that she wore cap at her wedding,
but has never worn one since. The year
after their marriage Mr.. and Mrs. Har-
riman joined the Walter Harvey church
in Barnet, which Mr.. Hartman after
wards served as deacon, Sunday school
superintendentand elder. Mrs. Hartman
is still a member of that church. Mr..
Hartman died II years ago. When her
nephew, Rev. Washington Laird, now of
West Chester, Penn, was preaching at
the Presbyterian church here, Mrs. Har-
riman moved to St. Johnsbury that she
might hear him preach, and she has
resided here most of the time since. She
has two children, Wallace Hartman
and Mrs. c. E. Cummings, with whom
she makes her home, and one grand
child, Rosa Hartman.
Mrs. Harriman's days pass happily
She uses glasses, but can read and sew
without them, and she spends much
time in reading the Bible, which she has
already read through 4S times. She
carries on her own correspondence with
her relatives who are away from here.
Many of her old friends reside here, and
as she makes friends of all who meet her,
by her charming spirit of hospitality,
she has many callers, each of whom
realizes when leaving Mrs. Hartman
that
Life grows rich as it groweth old,
And its latest sands are its sands of gold"

Mr.. Spencer'S Birthday.

George W. Spencer reached his 18th
milestone Sunday and in many ways he
was reminded that he was rs years
young, as indeed he is measuring time by
his geniality and warmheartedness. The
neighbors sent in bouquet of rs carna-
tions, about so of his friends called dur
ing the day to extend hearty congratula-
tions, and many more sent greetings by
mail. His daughter, Mrs. George H.
Frost, came up from Brookline to help
him celebrate, and in many ways he was
reminded that in his 40 years service at
the Fairbanks store he has a host ot
friends here and elsewhere.

The Perfect Tribute.

The loss of mother is always felt;
even though her health may incapacitate
her from taking any active part in the
care of her family, still she is a sweet
rallying point around which affection
and obedience, and a thousand tender
endeavors to please, concentrate; and
dreary is the blank when such point is
withdrawn! 1t is like that lonely star
before us; neither its heat nor its light
are essential to us in themselves; vet the
shepherd would feel his heart sad if he
missed it, when he lifts his eye to the
brow of the mountain over which it
rises when the sun descends.-[ [Alphonse

Shall we all be gathered there?
Shall we know one another and meet again
Shall we love again anywhere ?"

PROVES TO BE NO MATCH
FOR STANLEY KETCHEL
Fight is Stopped by the Referee Dur

pion Accomplishes What Jack john
son Could not Accomplish i'm Twice
the Time-OBrien is Knocked
Down Three Times Before the Fight
is Stopped.

Philadelphia, June 10.-Stanley
Ketchel, the middleweight champion,
defeated Jack O'Brien last night in the
third round of their bout, thus ac-
complishing feat that Jack Johnson.
heavyweight champion, failed to ac-
complish three weeks ago. The fight
was stopped in the second minute of
the third round. after O'Brien had
been knocked down twice in the Sec
ond and once in the third, and was
unable to raise his hands.
The fight was a whirlwind affair
from start to finish. Ketchel went af-
ter O'Brien from the tap of the gong,
and showed that he was determined to
make short work of the shifty Phila-
delphian. He devoted his attention to
O'Brien's body until he found an
opening and then sent in a crashing
right to the jaw that scored the first
knock-down in the second round.
O'Brien got UP gamely but went
down again in a few minutes later
from right and left on the jaw. This
time he struggled to his feet at the
count of six and two seconds later the
gong rang.
The third and last round was brief
ketchel went in for Knockout. In
his anxiety to finish II quickly he was
wild. Finally he cornered O'Brien
and sent in a left short arm blow
on the jaw that practically finished
the battle. O'Brien could not fall be-
cause he was pinned in corner, but
'rumpled up against ropes and clung !
desperately to Ketchels neck. Shak-
ng him loose, Ketchel again sent in |
right and left. Referee McGulgan,
seeing o'Brien's condition and wish
lg to avoid possible serious injury.
stopped the fight.
