Mountain Association.

Mountain Association WAS held in Bethel,
Wednesday and Thursday, June S and ..
Delegates we're present from various par
lshes in the district, which includes all
Upiversalist parishes in the counties Of
Windsor and Rutland. There were three
sessions during the convention. OF these
the first, held on Wednesday afternoon,
was devoted to business and discussion OF
missionary work. Some of those taking
part in the discussion emphasized the i'm
portance OF what is called Home Mission
work. Others invited attention to the
fact that there are no set rules governing
missionary effort. The prevailing senti-
ment was that wherever there is room for
improvement in the moral and spiritual
life OF humanity there is a field for mis-
sionary endeavor. The discussion was
pronounced helpful by those present.
The evening session was well attended.

Miss Edith Greene led the congregational

praise service, after which Rev. F. L.
Payson of Ludlow delivered an excellent

splendid results OF missionary endeavor.
A vocal solo was rendered by Miss
Greene, after which Rev. George +. For
tier, superintendent of the Universalist
churches of Vermont and the Province OF
Quebec, told of his work in the various
parts of the state. Because of faithful
work on his part, there has been quick
ening of the spirit in many parishes, the
results being evident to all who compare
present conditions with the conditions of
a year or two previous. An offering for
work was made.
The session OF Thursday morning was
devoted to the business OF hearing reports
OF various committees and taking action
on the same and election of officers for
the ensuing year. The convention voted

For Better Train Connections.

The Public Service commission held its
much adjourned hearing at Bethel last
Thursday on the petition OF +. II. Edger-
ton and others for more convenient con-
Hection fog passengers between the White
River r. r. and the Central Vermont.
Officials Of both roads aud a number of
the petitioners we're present.
The White River road seemed to favor
the plan that It should be allowed to run
its passenger trains on the line OF the
Central Vermont TO the passenger depot,
the track to be safe for its trains by the
use of block system. The Central Yer
mont officials did not favor such use Of
its tracks, but suggested a second under
pass below the present "dry bridge" so
that the Rochester trains could come up
to the Central Vermont passenger depot
on the easterly side Of the Central Yer
mont line. Mr.. Edgerton of the petition
ers suggested a plan of having the tracks
OF the Rochester road extended between
the Matson shop and the Central Yer
mont line TO a point near the southeriy
end OF the Central Vermont bridge and
then to arrange a passageway for passen-
gers under the southerly end of the
bridge. The baggage might be trans
ferred by an overhead trolley, or an ele-
vator, or a light baggage track laid
around on the line of the passenger
travel.
The hearing was adjourned to later
date in July to allow the parties TO sub
nit more definite plans and estimates.

floor by the plundering, go look"
They searched long and anHously,
Cages heart beating like a trip ham,

age that had been ruthlessly torn
open, on the back Of which was, "Tne
last will and testament Of Jacob Bald
win, Sr." iS VII MaiH
The officer agreed to accompany
Cage home, but his joy was so great
he left and kept up a speed of the
runner from Marathon.
TIE day following the Baldwin
family assembled to hear the read
."s Of the will Of the father. After
many bequests and instructions, he
willed his "beloved' daughter Mary
his home plantation and the proceeds
thereof, together with all the slaves
living on the plantation, also bank
stock, moneys, etc., Then to his son
"Jacob Baldwin, or should he be
dead, his wife and children, the
"quarter place. with the proceeds
thereof, the negroes, etc., But in
order to equalize the shares, his
daughter should pay the son five
thousand dollars or the equivalent in
land, etc. It is not necessary to give
details, but the idea was old MIR.
Baldwin, thinking his daughter would
go to the home Of her wealthy hus-
band, she would better give land than
negroes in it's equalization. All these
facts can be seen in "Recollections
Of Long Life," by Edwin J. Scott.
The reading Of the paper being fin
ished, the proud, but now trembling
husband sprang, to his feet and
shouted "fraud,' "forgery.' he
was told the signatures Of the three
Of Columbia's most respectable cit
izens we're genuine. That once proud
and naughty woman sat as stupefed.
When the true import and meaning
Of the will came to her in its full
force, that she now, instead Of Caro-
line, was a pauper, homeless and
hiendless she gave one wild piercing
shrek and fell swooning in her hus-
bands arms. Gage was mad with joy,
and ran from house to house to
spread the good tidings. The proud
woman did not have the money, nor
did her husband, to fulfill the re-
quirements of the Will, SO she and her
husband drifted westward and were
heard of no more.
"Miss Calline'' remains a widow
to this day, retaining all her amiable
qualities and much of her youthful
beauty, the daughter, beautiful and
as accomplished as her mother, mar
ried young professional man, and

married three times) while all is
happiness around. When you speak
to old RUNAWAY Cage" about the
frolic at old fiddler Bobs, which
worked such reformation and won
ders in his young master, he will
laugh till the tears run down the
wrinkled checks at the recollection,
and say, "0h, dare was sho dancing
