About so nAighbors and friends, includ-
ing a delegation of IL from the West
Brattleboro Baptist church, drove up to
the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Alonzo N.
Johnson Monday evening to observe the
10th anniversary of the marriage of Mr.
and Mrs Johnson, which fell on Sunday
Their coming was a surprise to Mr.
johnson, but Mrs. johnson had been let
into the secret. The home, about three
miles from West Brattleboro village, on
the Marlboro road, was the scene of
much merrymaking during the evening
and the event was one of rare pleasure,
Mr.. Johnson maintaining his reputation
as story teller. With felictous re-
marks and in behalf of the guests, Rev.
E. S. Harrison, pastor of the Baptist
church, presented Mr. and Mrs. Johnson
sum Of money, and Mr.. johnson re-
sponded, expressing appreciation of the
gift and in greater measure appreciation
of the friends who gave it and of the
spirit which prompted the giving. He
said he hoped that every one of the
guests would i've to enjoy as many
years of true happiness as he and his
wife had enjoyed together. He called
upon David T. Perry for remarks and
after the latter had told some stories in
his usual happy vein he called attention
to the fact that he was present when
Mr.. and Mrs. Johnson observed their
silver wedding "a years ago, anu lie eX-
pressed the hope that he might be pres
ent at still more of their anniversary
celebrations. Refreshments of sugar on
snow, cake and coffee were served and
some songs were sung, including THE
Old Gray Bonnet revised to suit the
occasion, and the party left at late
hour, leaving cordial good wishes.
Aonzo Newton Johnson was born in
Stamford, this state, Feb. 6. 1912. His
father was Milo Johnson and his mother
Electa Field. Mrs. Johnsons maiden
name was Sarah Maria Holmes. She was
born in Halifax June &c, 1889, a daugh-
ter of William and Esther (Hastings)
Holmes On Feb. II, 1863, they were mar
ried in Halifax and afterwards lived in
Stamford and Halifax, coming from the
latter town to Brattleboro more than 40
years ago For Is years Mr.. Johnson
was employed by the Estey Organ COM
pany, being employed by them at the
time of the freshet in 1869, when they
Vermont phÅ“nix. [volume] (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1834-1955, 1912-02-16

occupied the old Smith G. Hunt factory
on Frost street which was burned sew
eral years ago. His work was in the
iron room and at one time he was fore
man. He was member of the village
fire department when fire destroyed the
buildings on the west side of Main
street. While employed by the Estey
company he bought the farm where he
now lives, driving back and forth each
day for several years. Meanwhile the
farm was carried on by w. K. Taylor
his son-in-law, and since Mr.. Johnson
left the organ plant he and Mr.. Taylor
both have carried on the place, which
contains about 200 acres.
Mr.. and Mrs. johnson are members
of the West Brattleboro Baptist church,
in which they have been active workers.
Mr.. Johnson has been a deacon since
the death of his father 20 years ago.
and is one of the trustees At one time
they were members of the Grange. They
had three children, a son who died in
infancy, a daughter, Clara, who died at
the age of 16, and a daughter Alice,
wife of w. E. Taylor who always has
lived at home with the exception of one
year when she and her husband lived in
Halifax. They have five grandchildren,
Earl j. Taylor and Clara S. Taylor of
Brattleboro and Warren NJ, Paul l.. and
Harland A., who lives at home, all chill
dren of Mr.. and Mrs. w. E. Taylor,
and two great-grandchildren, Charlotte
Evelyn and Bertha Alice, children of
Mr.. and Mrs. Earl j. Taylor. All the
children, grandchildren and great-grand-
children were present Monday, making
four generations.
Mr.. and Mrs. johnson are among the
best of neighbors and friends and their
latchstring always is out. They are in
excellent health and represent the best
type of manhood and womanhood. Mr..
Johnson has a younger brother, j. S.
Johnson of Fishers Island, N. Y, and a
younger sister, Mrs. Mary E. Howard
of Brattleboro, widow of Lieut.. James
Howard Mrs. Johnson has an older sis
ter, Mrs. Charles Higley of Grove, a
younger brother, William Holmes of
Grove, and a younger sister, Mrs. Lewis
j. Johnson of West Brattleboro. 1t is
an interesting fact that all the brothers
and sisters Mr.. and Mrs. Johnson ever
had are now living.

TAFT Sure Party VIII Win Again.

President Taft was the guest of honor
in the Lincoln day dinner of the Repub-
lican club of New York Monday. He
was received with great enthusiasm and
he spoke forcibly, expressing the belief
that the Republican party is sure to win
again. Following are some of the briefs
from his address:
The Republican party is entitled to be
called truly progressive.
The truth is that the history of the
last fifty years with one or two excep-
lions, has been the history of the Repub-
lican party.
The Republican party has taken its
position and must maintain its position
in favor of as little disturbance of the
business of the country as possible in
respect to tariff changes. r.N
o. The Republican party is. as progress
sive as any party In its desire to perfect
the judicial procedure of the country
The Republican party passed the re-
bate bill, the rate bill, and has
now brought the railroads within the
complete control of the Interstate Com
merce Commission and the courts.
It's statesmen drafted and passed the
anti trust law of 1890, and it's successive
administrations have gradually brought
that to be a controlling force in the
proper limitations upon business combi-
nations in this country.
We have adopted a new employers
liability act.
We have provided mining bureau
