NEWFANE
Mrs. James II. Underwood.

Mrs. James II. Underwood, whose
death from heart failure occurred Tues
day morning at $50, at their home in
Brattleboro, was born in East Dover.
She was the only daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. II. e. Howe, who had also two
sons, Eugene Y. Howe of Putney and
LEROY u. Howe of East Templeton,
Mass. After a few years Mr.. and Mrs.
Howe moved from their home in Dover
to Marlboro, where they lived for many
years Their daughter, Minnie L., was
a bright and apt pupil and at the early

and was a conscientious and successful
teacher until her marriage to James H.
Underwood in 1884, when they went to
Springfield Mass, to live. After few
years they moved to Hartford, Conn,
and from there to Albany. After stay
ing a few years in that city they returned
to Newfane, where they lived for about
20 years, going from here to Brattleboro
this winter that she might be with their
only daughter, Sadie.
About eight years ago Mrs. Underwood
took a severe cold, from which she never
fully recovered. During this time, al
though she has suffered much, she has
been cheerful and courageous. OF an
affectionate and lovable disposition she
will be much missed in her home, where
she was a devoted wife, mother and
daughter, by her many friends and
neighbors in her home in Newfane, and
by the Rebekah lodge, Of which she was
a charter member.
The funeral was held in their home in
Brattleboro Thursday morning at IL
o'clock, Rev. Daniel Mcintyre of Towns
bend officiating. Many beautiful floral
tributes were received. The burial was

Windham County Fish Law Approved
bennington Banner.1

bennington Bannerl
Last year Editor Howe of the Ben
nington Banner helped to Officially open
the trout season in Windham county,
and he gave vivid word pictures Of the
chief pastime of the period in that region
Anglers are now patiently waiting to hear
returns from Brattleboro via Bennington
I Burlington Free Press.
The editor confesses to having helped
open the season in Windham county
in due and ancient form With the as
slstance of Postmaster Graves he tackled
a promising looking stream in the town
of Nottingham. While the two secured
only meagre mess of trout they are
both more than ever convinced Of the
wisdom of the Windham county law.
Though the season was well advanced
and the stream clear of snow water only
four fishermen were on a stream some
three miles long-not much like the mob
that VIII skin the streams of every other
county in the state when the season
opens May 10. Owing to the early open-
ing the fishing in Windham county
starts gradually and the fishing will sure
~ last much better than where the front
are lulled INTO security for a month only
TO be nearly all taken the first day. II
was also noted that where trout were
seen only a few Of them would bite.
mus tending to prove untrue the theory
that 1t Is easier to catch trout in April
IMAM later in the season. We are as
ANXIOUS as any one to preserve and i'm
prove the trout fishing in Vermont ana
are sincere in the conviction that the
Windham county law ought to be applied
