summer comes again to our viii
lage and adorns the quiet street
and we see once more the distant
hill grow green, but two good
friends are absent. Two sturdy
boys once lived on one of the by
roads of our town. Only green
holloWs with many a fragrant
bush mark the places where com
mon country homes once stood.
In one home William K. Porter
was born, who went to Boston in
his boyhood to make his fortune.
AS dealer in horses, and later
in real estate, he climbed steadily
from poverty to wealth. This
wealth is now at his death divid-
ed among the members of his fam
lily, to whom he has ever been
most devoted and generous. On
a quiet night you can hear two
clocks strike, in two separate viii
lagos. These gifts from Mr.. Por-
ter remind the citizens of him, and
of times steady march that brings
each life to it's end. Other gifts to
the churches have been received
and appreciated. Further up the
Fort Simon Road" as it is called,
there lived another boy, Wilson
A. Farnsworth, whose earnings
helped, as the others did, the
home in it's struggles. From school
and college life he went far across
the world to labor for fifty years
as a missionary in the Turkish
Empire. On each return to Amer
lea he manifested in various ways
his interest in Thetford; the peo-
pie, the academy. The churches
were ever dear to his heart, tho
he had little money to give. Each
man in his old age, came with
each returning summer to town
to enjoy the scenes of his boy
hood, to greet old friends, and
rejoice in the beauty of the sum-
mer on hills and fields. And it is
with genuine sadness that we
realize that these good friends
are gone.
William Chauncey Langdon, the
Master of last summers pageant,
has a fine collection of lantern
slides, reproducing the scenes of
the pageant. He will use these
slides and others in an illustrated
lecture on Pageantry, to be Civ
en- at the church on the hill July
16, at pm. The lecture is free.
These slides will give the people
who were in the episodes a chance
to see themselves as others saw
them, and an opportunity to greet
our good friend, Mr.. Langdon,
again. He regrets that his many
this summer make it
impossible to give this lecture
more than once in town, which
ne would very much like to do if
ne could.
