Golden Wedding.

Mr. and Mrs. George w Mason of 10
Silver street, Haverhill, Mass. pa
rents of Senator Arthur l.. Mason
though II years old are both in good
health and active for people of their
years. They celebrated their golden
wedding anniversary on Monday eve
ming and enjoyed the occasion inn
mensely. Mr.. Mason was the first man
to build a home on Silver street, with
in few hundred yards of Tilton's
tower erected on the highest and most
slightly spot in the city. Mt. Washing
ton at the time was looked upon as
the coming residential section of the
city and some of it's most prominent
citizens built homes there. Mr.. Mason
was engaged in the slipper manufac-
ture up to % years ago and on first
coming to Haverhll in 1863 recogniz-
ed the advantages of locating high up
on Silver hill
While both come of sturdy Pine Tree
state stock, they attribute their long
lives and good health to the superior
quality of the air which they breathe
on Silver hill. Contrary to what most
people suppose they say that it is al
ways two degrees warmer on the hill
in winter, from what it is in the city
proper and that during the hot sum
mer months there Is always a breeze
to be found on the hilltop and the air
is less humid
Their home is located on the south
ern exposure so that they never suffer
from the cold north winds. They are
too high to be enveloped in fog and
never suffer from dampness. In young
err years Mrs. Mason said that years
ago they never thought anything of
walking down town and back, but now
people were growing puny because
they depend on the electrics. 1.-THE tele-
phone also has kept people indoors and
saved their legs. Only the other day
Mr. Mason, at Il. walked from his
home to Linwood street, Riverside,
without feeling in the least fatigued.
Friends of Mr.. and Mrs. Mason hope
that they may live to see many more
years of happiness together.

fast, who made a strong plea in be-
half of his client, and also read several
letters advocating pardon, from Waldo

briefly in behalf of the petitioner. and
also read a number of letters, among
them one from Warden Wiggin, and
when the matter was passed upon by
the Governor and Council a condition
