Gen. knox's Carriage.

Frank B. Hills, first selectman oil
Thomaston, hyched up in front of the
Rockland postoffice day or two ago
with 'pedigreed carriage"-the one
in which Washington's first secretary
of war used to ride. The carriage was
built In Boston 1870 years ago and
was the private carriage Of Maj. Gen.
Henry Knox, secretary under the first
president, and not only is 1t one of the
most historic vehicles in the United
States, but 1t is also probably the old
est able bodied private carriage in ex.
istence on the continent. In spite OF
its 100 years, a quaint substantial We
hicle II is. Gen. Knox no doubt had
1t made. just as history tells It., In
Boston, for there were no carriage
builders in Thomaston in those early
days, and as Gen. Knox operated q
packet line of small sailing vessels
between Boston and Thomaston II
would have been easy for him to have
the carriage brought to Thomaston.

the affair on the Raccoon; but before
they left the table the Raleigh morn
ing papers were brought in and 1t was
clear that the newspaper men were
keeping their contract.
Both governors had decided upon
an inspection of such portions of their
militia as were assembled on the Rae
coon, and a Joint dress parade was
appointed for six o'clock.
Ardmore, anxious to make every
one at home, saw the morning pass
without a chance to speak to Jerry;
and when he was free shortly before
noon he was chagrined to find that
she had gone for ride over the es-
tate with her father, Gov. Osborne,
Barbara and Griswold. He went in
pursuit, and to his delight found her
presently sitting alone on a log by
the Raccoon, having dismounted, 1t
appeared, to rescue a fledgling robin
whose cries had led her away from
her companions. She pointed out the
nest and directed him to climb the
tree and restore the bird. This done

Ardmore seized and wrung his
friends hand for the twentieth time;
but he was preoccupied, and Griswold,
fastening his collar at the mirror,
hummed softly the couplet:

"Of course 1 like her, you idiot!

He frowned upon the scarf he had
chosen with much care, snapped 1t to
shake the wrinkles out, humming
softly, while Ardmore glared at him.
