His parents Were Mr. and Mrs John
Day of that town. Because of a large
family he was adopted, when a boy of
FIVE years. by his uncle and aunt, Will
liam and Mary Sutherland. His edu-
cation was that of a common school.
When the so-called "Aroostook War"
broke out he was drafted into service,
but there was no conflict. MIR. Day has
been twice married. His first mar
rage was to Miss Lucy Sherburne of
Mt Vernon. Two children, Sherburne
and Emma, were born to this union.
Several years following the demise of
his first wife, he was united in mar
riage with Airs. Phoebe Dumphy To
this union there were no children.
His only son, Sherhurne, and his wife
died within a Few weeks of each other,
and apon their death Mr.. Day came to
New Portland to live with his daugh-
ter, Mrs. Mark L.. Hutchins, and with
whom he now resides, surrounded with
love and tender care.
Mr.. Days first vote for Governor was
for John Fairfield. In 1874 he cast his
first vote Presidential vote for James
G.. Birney. Liberty candidate. In 1915
he voted for Van Buren,, in 1852 for
Hale and in 1856 for Fremont. With
one exception he has, since that time,
voted the Republican ticket until 1872,
when he did not vote.

hearing and eyesight. he has nothing
of which to complain, but he bears
these misfortunes silently and brave
ly.
This old gentleman is a great-Srand-
father to two. They are: Laura Belle
and Melvina, daughters of Rev. Nj. s.
Hutchns. He also has grandchildren.
Among them are: Melvin S. Hutchins
of phillips, Forest. Lucy and Thurston
Hutchins of this town.
Mr. Day has an uneommonly jovial
disposition and one of his pastimes
which he greatly enjoys is whistling,
Wherever he is or whatever he is do
ing you always hear that merry
whistle" He is also fond of music of
all kinds, especially singing.
Surely, Mr.. Day is a grand old man.,
but to fully understand and appreciate
his merits one must have a personal
Chat with him and if they don't enjoy
themselves it will not be the fault of
their hest.
