Vicksburg campaign and in the battle
of Baton Rouge. 1t was in that cam

itated for weeks and months because
of debilitating illness.
MIR. Waitman was born in Chester,
Nov. u, 1886, one of IL children born
to Samuel and Althusa (Smith) Wait
man. The family soon moved to Wealth
ersield and later to Springfield, Vt
| There Mr. Mailman learned the car
penter s trade, which he has followed
ever since with the exception of the
time that he served his country at the

of his company was on the picket line
when the battle started and it was
long after midnight before he found
his regiment again which was then in
the city of Baton Rouge, near the pen

stationed in that locality and sickness
depleted the ranks far more than the
bullets Of the Confederates succeeded
in doing. Mr.. Mailman, however,
escaped the ravages Of fever and the
bullets of the enemy and was eventual
ly mustered out Of the service in Brat
tleboro Aug. %, 1864, the regiment
having completed its enlistment, as
under the act by which the regiment
was recruited they were to ''serVe three

most OF friends who will always treas

Mrs. Dean bore her suffering so pa
tiently and sweetly with a wonderful
grit through all her sickness. She was
devoted wife, as we'll as a loving

ing qualities, culture and innate refn-
ment, one who always had that rare
and valuable gift of making friends

To mourn her death are left her hus-
band, Roy +. Dean. her parents, MIR.

Masonic Bodies DenOunCe Fake

W. F. Laraway has received from
Grand Secretary Robinson. of the
Grand Lodge of Masons of Oregon, a
communication calling attention to an
article in Sundays Oregonian exposing
a spurious organization in Portland.
Mr.. Robinson asked that the matter
be called to the attention of local citi
zens to prevent anyone from being
duped by the "Clandestine Masons, !"
as thev have been termed.
"While the exposure of the fake is
commendable, says MIR. Laraway,
1--WE think it would have hard shedding
in Hood River, where true Masonry is
fully understood.
Convictions of the parties at the
head of the lodges have been made in
Vancouver, B. c., on the charge Of Sc
curing money under false pretense.
