Fred Quimby'S Recovery is
Considered Doubtful
ACCIDENT AT E. BARNET

Fifteen Feet.
ACCIDENT AT E. BARNET

st. Johnsbury, Jan. o.--Fred ouimby
lies in The Brightlook hospital in crit
cal condition, having been brought there
to-day from East Barnet, where he was
injured by falling fifteen feet and having
a heavy timber strike him on The head
The patient is in an unconscious eondi-
tion and. in fact, has been ever since
the accident yesterday afternoon. His
recovery is considered doubtful.
Quimby, who is a carpenter and joiner,
was at work about his own property
erecting a shed annex TO the barn. He
was on the roof Of the shed when the
support gave way and let him drop the
fifteen feet to the ground. 1t is probable
that his injuries would not have been
severe had not the timber fallen at the
time and struck him on top Of the
head. He is 46 years Of age and has
a wife and four children.

by Knights Of PythiaS,

Present and the Evening Closed with
Banquet-Retiring Chancellor
Commander Duthie Honored.

Thomas G. Cheney, speaker Of the ver-

ent also several Of bis associates in
the present legislature, and the evening
was made a gala affair, with banquet
served after the work.
Speaker Cheney is a member of the
Rathbone lodge of the knights in his
home town, but since he is at present
in Montpelier the opportunity for put
ting him through under the smooth guild
ance Of the degree team of Vincitia
lodge was gladly embraced by the local
lodge. In return for the compliment,
Speaker Cheney promised each and any
knight welcome to the legislature, but
he declared that he could not promise
such team work as the degree team OF
the local lodge eHnced.
Another pleasant feature of the even
ing was the presentation to the retiring
commander, William II. Du-
THE, of q past chancellor's jewel, and, in
addition, handsome knights Of Pyth-
las charm, bearing the emblem Of tho
order. The speech Of presentation was
made by g. NJ Wiley, and Mr.. Duthis
thanking the members Of the
lodge for their tokens. The postprans
dial exercises were presided over by the
retiring chancellor commander, and re-
sponses to toasts were made by various
members.
