few Although he had not been in good
health for few years, yet the end

the seed of that which is best in our
New England life.
From early manhood Mr.. Chafey
showed a taste for mercantile pur-
suits. He began his business career
with a clerkship of about year in a
store in Derby Line. and then en-
larged his experience by serving a
similar period in wholesale house
in Boston. At the age Of twenty four
he formed partnership with his
brother, Hiram W., and the firm con-
ducted general store at West Al

of his brother in 1882. Since this lat

than two generations 'Chafey s
Store" has been the customary shop
ping place OF many farmers families
for miles up and down the Black river
valley and along the adjacent hill
sides.
But Mr.. Chafey was not merely a
merchant. Throughout his life he
was actively interested ia all olic
affairs, held many public Offices and
faithfully performed his full duty as
citizen. Continuously for tw enty
years >(1866-l8S6) Mr.. Chafey served

Song Of Vermont in March, 1911.

Sing a song o weather,
Plenty and to spare,
Old Vermont ain't selfish,
She Will gladly share.
Snow drifts all around US,
Eight and ten feet deep,
Meath 'em we're supposin'
That the grasses sleep.
Sing song O. weather,
Cold enough to freeze!
Just to think about it
Makes body sDeeze.
Wind BLOWN fiercely,
Snow a fallin' fast:
Seems to keep comm
Guess its goin' ter last.
Sing a song o. weather.
Scarce fence in sight;
Just rollin' prarie
All in frosty white.
Snow up ter the winders,
Sometimes ter the caves.
When we shoul! be lookin'
For arbutus leaves.
Sing a song O. weather,
April almost here.
And the landscape lookin'
Like mid winter drear.
T#in't no use in sayin'
That we think its fun.
This ere kind O weather,
And the way it's run.
Sing a song O. weather,
| AS it oughter be,
Balmy beezes blowin'
Over wood and lea.
| Pussies settin' sunnin'
On the willer bough,
That's the way it should be.
