BLANKET LANE, lProspect)
Mr.. and Mrs. Abner Gray spent Thanksgiv-
ing with their children at the home of Mr. and
Mrs. T. E. Cuddy in Frankfort. Mr.. and
Mrs. John Sprague, aged about 80 years, ate
their Thanksgiving turkey dinner with their
son and daughter, Mr.. and Mrs. NJ E. Clark
Mr.. and Mrs. l. M Cummings were guests for
the day with them. :. Charles Tower has
crew of men at Frankfort rafting logs for the
saw mill at that place. ."Honest john" the
dry goods merchant, passed through Blanket
Lane Thursday. This pedler has great run
of business wherever he goes. He carries a
variety of ladies' and gentlemen's dress goods.
1T is strange but true that troop of gun
ners Of from to ID years of age comes
into Blanket Lane every morning after deer,
although but one half starved little deer has
been seen in Blanket Lane this fall. People
cutting their fire wood in the woods are in dan
ger of being shot for deer. =. Eugene Young
is still running his hay press. He will next go
onto Sears Island to press and then move to
Prospect, where he has many tons to press..
Mrs. Alice Clark of the New York settlement
is visiting her uncle and aunt, Mr.. and Mrs.
Isaac M. Cummings of Blanket Lane. e........
But one deer has been shot in this vicinity up
to this writing. There are plenty of deer and
plenty of dears, but both seem to have the
same mind and that is to run free. William
Young, who has been cutting lumber for Isaac
M. Cummings, cut his leg quite badly Nov.
9th. q. Charles B. Cummings and j. l. Brown
were in Stockton Springs last Thursday, shop
ping. George Overlook of Stockton has job
to haul lumber for 1. M. Cummings to the Per-
kins & Grant mill at Mill creek as soon as we
get fall of snow. wv. C. Bowdoin, superin-
tendent of the Mt. Heagan granite plant, re-
ports that he has cleared the quarry of all
paving blocks and has shipped the last cargo
to parties in Bangor. Mr. Bowdoin thinks of
running few paving cutters through the
winter. Some of the paving blocks just ship
ped were made q years ago and there has
been law suit over them for fifteen years
George Ridley and Thomas Carter of Milo
were in the Lane recently to visit c. C. Ridley
for few days. L. C. Cummings, who has
been sick the past eight weeks, is now gaining

in Waterville to Joseph Lawrence Clarke of
Portland, and is to reside in Portland.
Charles A. Hartman has on exhibition in
his jewelry store window an interesting book
which he discovered while looking over a box
of old books in the basement of his store, says
the Bath Times. 1t is the record book of the
late John Hayden, beginning with March, 1929,
and covering period of six years, showing
the watch sales and all repair work on watches
during that time. 1t contains the names of
1000 sales and repair jobs. There is an inter-
esting history connected with the store now
occupied by MIR. Hartman, 1t has been occu-
pied as a jewelry store for nearly ninety years.
The business was first started by John Hayden,
and then followed Rowland & Donnell, How
land & Hayden, and Charles F. Hayden. Mr..
Harri man bought the business in 1890.
Wednesday, Nov. 9th, was the 6sth birthday
of Hon. Edwin c. Burleigh of Augusta and he
received letters, telegrams and telephone mes
sages from all sections of Maine (even from
Lewiston and Auburn) breathing congratula-
tions and good will and Thanksgiving greet
ings These words of cheer were followed by
"prog ressive" Thanksgiving dinner that in
cluded the members and homes of the six
branches of his family-Mrs. Clarence B. Bur-
leigh, Lewis A. Burleigh, Mrs. R. J. Martin,
Mrs. Joseph Williamson, Mrs. Byron Boyd and
Mrs. R. H. Stubbs. At one house they ate a
course, then moved on to another, carrying the
good will and the cheer that infected all those
met on the way. The Kennebec Journal does
not undertake to tell the story of this some-
what remarkable feast of turkey and fxin's,
but the editor of The Journal says that "all
join in the declaration that Hon. Edwin c. Bur-
leigh was the happiest and the liveliest of
them all on this glad occasion"
