OBITUARY..
WILLIAM D. WATSON.

William Dodson Watson of East Mid
dlebury died at o'clock p. m. on Thurs
day, March 6, at the Soldiers home in
Bennington, after brief illness with
pneumonia in the 10th year of his age.
Mr. Watson was born in Warrens-
burg, N. Y, December IA, 1913, but
passed the greater part of his life in
this state, living at various times in the
towns of Cornwall, Rochester, Goshen
and Middlebury, and his last home was
at East Middlebury. On December
10Th, 1868, he enlisted in Co. K of the
LIST Vermont cavalry in the Civil war,
being credited to the town of Cornwall,
and was mustard out at Frederick, Nd, ,
June 8, 1865. During this service young
| Watson had his share of the dangers
and honors of war. In Fitzpatrick S
raid on Richmond he was severely
wounded in the right side, just above
the hip, on March l, 1864, at which
time he was also made a prisoner of
war He was confined in what was
known as the Old Tobacco Warehouse,
an adjunct of Libby prison, in Rich
mond, until April 3, following, VIII en-
with other prisoners, he was paroled.
Charles E. Youtt of Middlebury, COM
pany comrade, was wounded on the
same occasion and was fellow prisoner
in Richmond
Owing to his wound the deceased did
not perform any active service after
his parole, but passed most of the time
in Federal hospitals until the discharg e
of his regiment, two months after the
close.of the war. His wound was an
extremely painful one and he suffered
much: from it during all the remainder
of his life, and he was also a great
sufferer from pleurisy and rheumatism.
He had been an inmate of the hospital
of the. Soldiers home since early in
November last, with the exception of
some weeks spent at his old home in
East Middlebury in consequence of the
illness and death of his younger daugh-
ter, Mrs. Leonel Lamorder, who died
on February 3.
Mr.. Watson was farmer for most of
his life after his army experience. He
was man of a generous and genial
nature and made many warm friends
wherever he was located; and his com
rade-in-arms give him the name of hav-
ing been brave and reliable soldier.
In 1873 he was married to Margaret
(Morrison) Collins of Middlebury, who
died three years ago. They had four
children, Archie w. Watson and Miss
Georgia Watson of Middlebury, Freder-
lex c. Watson of Utica, N. Y, and
Sarah, the younger daughter, who died
last month, as above noted. He also
leaves one sister, Mrs. May A. Stevens
of Chicago.
The remains were brought here on
the 3:l5 train Friday afternoon and
were taken to the home of his son,
Archie, on Franklin street, where they
reposed until 2 o'clock p. m. on Sunday
at which time the funeral services were
held. There was large attendance OF
relatives and friends, including William
P. Russell post, No. SO, G. A. R., of

FIRST TIME IN THREEYEARS

PHILADELPHIA, October 1S.--Revers-
ing the results Of their two previous con-
tests, Pennsylvania defeated the Brown
foot ball team on Franklin Field today
by the score OF 2S to O. The home eleven
outclassed the Providence team in all de-
partments of the game. Pennsylvania S
goal was never In danger and through
out the contest the Brown team was able
to make but one first down. The Red and
Blue showed a strong defense and seldom
seemed to have much trouble In advanc-
ing the ball. Pennsylvania's kicking was
superior to Browns. and in this depart
ment alone the Quakers gained many
yards. Pennsylvania often tried the for
ward pass. but It seldom was a success.
Brown tried it twice without gain.
Pennsylvania scored early in the first
period. The ball was worked down to
Browns 12-yard line, where, on q fake
forward pass. Minds handed the bali to
Marshall. who ran for a touchdown be-
fore Brown could fathom the play The
second touchdown also came in the first
period, Capt. Young going around Browns s
right end for the score after Pennsyl-
vania had carried the ball almost to the
goal line.
In the second period Marshall failed at
a field goal from the 3J-yard line Later
forward pass. Minds to Marshall. net
ted Pennsylvania 25 yards. Marshall cir
cled Browns right end for 20 yards, and
with the ball on Browns 1-yard line
Minds was pushed across for the third
touchdown. The last touchdown was
made In the third period by Minds. after
Pennsylvania had easily gone around the
Providence teams ends for substantial
gains. Marshall kicked. all four goals
from touchdowns. Lineup and summary:

A glittering caught his eye. A faint

There i'll easy reach was some easy
money! All he has to do is to climb in
the ring with Tommy Murphy and it was
his. Packey is not about to retire..
We shall be sorry IL he did. The ring
would lose its most brilliant boxer and
the game its greatest credit. Packey is
without doubt the best pugiist of any
class in the world today, and If he did
retire he will have carried between the
ropes the greatest record of any fighter,
past or present. He has fought some
thing like 1I5 times and was never de-

considerable battle, Wolgast was cham
pion then, and Tommy and Packey We're
striving for the chance to meet him.
So the result of this fight meant some
thing to the winner.
They both trained hard. Tommy worked
out before admiring throngs at Al
Whites, across the bay i'm Oakland,
while Packey reduced himself to condi-
ton out at Joe Miilet's. in Colma, with
the help of the present champion. Willie
Ritchie. then an humble sparring part

They started off on their long jour
ney at Blot's arena, with a huge crowd
and beautiful day looking down upon
them. Packey was expected to win
easily. and started Off as if to fulfill pre-
dictions.
He cuffed. slapped and batted poor
Tommy about the ring with ease his
speed and cleverness completely battling
the little iron man from Harlem OF
course Tommy never stopped trying. and
was there or whereabouts at all stages of
the going, but UP to the fifteenth round
the best he got was the worst of 1t.
Oddly, the most unusual thing about
it all was the manner In which Murphy
took his licking. Instead of being aroused
to rage and curses by the sharp jabs and
hooks of the shifty Chicagoan his face
took on an expression of admiration for
