The Bulletins Columbia correspon- dent writes: The town in the inter est of Pine Street school district and the Columbia Ecclesiastical society is about to receive bequests Of s100 and $500, respectively, willed them by Will liam Austin Yeomans more than sixty five years ago. This will was pro- bated in 1S46, and in 184S by an ar engagement of the executor and heirs of the testator, Lyman Clarke assumed the responsibility of paying these be- quests upon the marriage or death of the testator's widow.

 sulting later in their offer to deed the
 property known as the Lyman C.

Dr. Soule "dropped out of sight and
mortal ken,' and so far as known to any
person in Richford has not been heard
OF since that night. His disappearance
is one OF the great mysteries, as nothing
In his life in Richford Indicated anv
necessity for concealment. He simply
dlvested himself of everyday apparel,
leaving money, watch, keys, etc., donned
an old suit used on fishing expeditions
and disappeared leaving no word or
written note in explanation. Acting
upon the theory of suicide, the mill
pond was drawn out by The Sweat

Soule was seen at Newport that night
by Archie Gregoire, immigrant lnspec.
