ANOTHER LANDMARK GONE.

| The property recently known as the
Banks property is now being torn
ldown. This was one of the early host
Ilerles of Woodstock. Prior to and
some years after 1917 it was known as
the Woodstock Coffee House"
Even tradition does not give us the
names of the first proprietors. Prior
to 1920, Mr.. Gray conducted q hotel
IN this place. In 1920, Mrs. Ann
Turnbull, who had been running a
hotel in Middletown undertook the
management Of this house. She
is said to have been q very pretty
woman, A short time after her
coming she was married to Mr..
Peter Miller, man of consider
able property. 1t was said that the
match was made by the creditors OF
Mrs. Ann Turnbull. Mr.. Miller, in a
| very short time learned that he had
married his wife's debts, as the law at
that time made the husband response
BILE for the wife's ante nuptial debts.
That appears to have been her sole
objec. in marrying him. as the copy
of the Shenandoah HERALD, which
published the announcement OF the
marriage also published a notice,
from Mr.. Miller, warning the public
not to trust his wife, as he would not
be responsible for any debts contract
ed by her.
Another tradition, connecting this
property with tragedy, which is now
scarcelI remembered was related by
old people over half century ago.
1t was when the gathering of militia
for general muster attracted large
crowds. Two of the members agreed
to fight sham duel. The guns were
loaded with wads only and they re-
paired to the lot, in rear OF the hotel.
At the word, both fired and ore, Mr..
Rodeffer was wounded by tow wad.
He reached the front of the hotel and
died rpon the pavement. For some
years prior to 1915. Mr.. Charles
Welsh used this property as hotel.
Col. II. S. G. Albert purchased the
property and occupied it as a private
residence and store for number OF
wears. 1t was used as hotel about
the year 1857, by Mr.. Daniel Smoot
aud a partner from East Virginia.
Col. Albert, the owner OF the prop
erty again occupied it. Afterwards
Mr.. Andrew Wright lived in it and
later Thomas Banks occupied it for a |
number of years. Some years later
the late N. B. Schmitt purchased it,
and it was rented to various parties.
After Nh. Schmitt's death. it was
purchased fly the Shenandoah Fire
Compsny and used as tenpin alley
and an apartr INT house.
Now the o'4 landmark must givel
way to the v.seels of progress and in
short time city hall 10 keeping
with the demands of the age will be |
erected.

mutual friends-with such aid as
could give them, to choose and try me
as your County Clerk during this
short term-the shortest provided 1or
by the present constitution.
Even with my previous knowledge OF
the office, it was hardly to be expected
that / woald be able, in this short
period of probation, to me asdre up 10
a high standard proficiency, but my
conscientious efforts to perform the
exacting duties of the office faithfully.
impartially and in an acceptable man
ner, and thereby show my auprecia-
ton of your confidence. have been met
with such kind indulgence and con-
sideration by all, without regard to
their politics, that have not only'en-
loved being in position where |
could serve them, but have been led
to hope that your action will be rati-
fed and confirmed by rejoicing me
next Novemb Der for the coming full

Toll Gates.

Judge F.. s. Tavenner and Com
monwealth's Attorney Williamson
went to Richmond last Wednesday to
represeet Shenandoah county, before
the State Corporation Commission, in
the matter of the Valley Turnpike
Company's application to put an in
creased number of toll gates on the
road in Shenandoah county. The
other counties through which the road
passes are quiet. The company has
made no effort to put more gates in
those counties, but they may rest as.
sured that If they succeed in Shenan.
dosh, their turn will come next.
From an interview with the P-esi-
dent OF the Company published in cae
of the Harrisunhurg papers, it seems
probable that the company will mex
endeavor to have tho fences moved OIL
Of the property of the turnpike CON-
pany's grounds, SO as to make the
roadway 40 feet wide, sufficient for 9
roadway and a trolley line.
The people are patient but it will
nor do to bank too much upon theil
patience.
