NORTH BELFAST If ex-Mayor Hanson had
gathered his information from reliable source
we do not believe that he would have made
the scurrilous attack upon the voters of Ward
4 that was made in last weeks issue of the
Waldo County Herald. There was absolutely
no ground for his statement that the ward
was carried for Dunton by rum and money, and
it is a base SANDER upon the integrity and
honesty of the staid citizens of Ward 4, ire
spective of party. A more quiet election
never was held and we believe every man who
was there any length of time will bear wit
ness to the truth of that statement. Mrs.
Ellen C. Gay went to Chelsea, Mass, last
Thursday to visit her brother, John H. Gill
more. Mrs. Abbie Daniels arrived home last
Friday from a three weeks visit with her son,
Rev. Willard Daniels of Guilford. Mr. and
Mrs. M. F. Hurd arrived home Saturday night
from ten days visit with their daughter....
Mrs. Fred A. Holmes is visiting in Waterville.
....A fine supper and entertainment were
given in the vestry W ednesday evening, March
18th, under the auspices of Chemical Co. No l.
The mock trial, 1.-THE Scroggin's Divorce
Case" was acted in pleasing manner. F. L.
Bartlett was judge and presided with dignity.
Arthur w. Coombs was the plaintiff, and was
represented by his lawyer, Maurice Roberts,
in brilliant manner. The defendant was Vic
tor Merriam, who conducted his own case. His
make. and Interpretation of the part was
equal to many professionals The witnesses
and jury were dressed for their parts, all of
which was well done. A large audience was
present and the affair netted $500.
FROM SUBSCRIBERS. Col F. E. Boothby, who
with Mrs. Boothby is sojourning at Magnolia
Springs, Florida. says, in q personal note:
Coming to Florida this winter and last makes
me think of my railroad days. when l used to
come every winter in the interest Of, or adj
vertising, Bar Harbor and other Maine resorts.
This until the years of my election as mayor
of Portland prevented. And always it used to
be a great pleasure to meet in Jacksonville
Charles B. Hazeltine of Belfast-as fine q
gentleman as ever lived. Once-you mustn't
give it away-he, Mr.. Bass and occupied the
smoking compartment Of Maine Central
train and it was found (although not, of course,
just to day. that Bass was ten years older
| than l and Hazeltine twenty-but that did not
prevent our always being friends" ... From
Nassau. N. P. with the date of March 18th,
comes a postcard from Mr.. Alfred johnson,
who writes of the picture it bears: This is
