Yesterdays thaw lowered the
snow banks in this vicinity very
much. 1t was rumored that if the
snow went away with a rush. as it
does occasionally, that the Bordens
would have to ship the milk from
here to Honesdale on a scow, as
no team would be able TO make the
trip, but at present everything looks
favorable for an early spring and
no serious floods.
During the past winter more
horses have been injured than usual
ly; this is due to the great depth
of snow making it difficult for
teams to travel on the highways.

STEENE.


MIR. John Smith of Keene. never
tires of talking to his old acquaint-
ances of the things that have hap
pened about Keene, Steene and
Prompton for the past so years.
Mr.. Smiths memory is remarkable
for a man of his years, especially
while enjoying good smoke.
Mr.. Buckland of Steene is prob
ably an older resident of Keene
and Steene than Mr.. Smith, but he
remembers nothing of the past but
his fishing expeditions, away back
when Keene Lake was surrounded
on all sides by dense forest. He
claims thar he would go while the
women folks built the fire, and
would be back by the time the frying
pan was hot with fish enough to feed
large family all day, fish averag-
ing from one. two. four and six
pounds. He says in those days the
butchers couldn't afford automobiles
or drive a fast horse. Later he will
tell us some of his thrilling expert
ences of landing some of the mons
ter fish of the latter days, that is,
if he has good, old-fashioned plug
Of tobacco to keep his memory from
wandering.
Another old timer in this section
is Mr.. Dennie, who has been. and is
yet, a great trapper, so much so
that its a very sly fox or mink that
will pass his traps without being
enticed to taste of the death-dealing
bait, or to get in range of an old
u0'ver-miss rifle, that is always ready
for emergency. but as Mr. Dennie
doesn't use tobacco in any form, it,
hard for him 10 keep his nerves
steady enough TO relate some Of his
thrilling experiences in trapping,
but he will give us something in the
near future.
