A Garrick Incident.

David Garrick, where speaking was
concerned, was the pride, of London.
Members of parliament envied him his
powers. Burke envied him. There is
that instance in parliament when, dur
ing heated debate, a member moved
that the gallery be cleared. This was
ordered to be done, and the strangers
withdrew, all save Garrick. Still the
member objected. Then up spake
Burke. Would it be fair to exclude
from their debate the master of ~elo-
quence, the genius who taught them
the art Of speaking? he demanded.
For himself he was proud to acknowl-
edge his Indebtedness to Garrick. Fox
followed in the same strain, and Town
shend. The house then voted that the
stranger should remain" And Gar
rick did not budge.-St. James Gazette.

MRS. ASHLEY FARMAN.

AZTEC o'clock on Sunday morning.
August 20, Mrs. Harriet Newell
Winslow, widow of the late Ashley
Farman and mother of Chaplain M. w.
Farman, passed from this life, aged 80
years. The cause of death was old
age. Though she had been in frail
condition physically for years. yet she
retained her mind remarkably to the
last. She bore the infrmities of age
with wonderful patience and cheerful
ness. She was interested in the occur
renee of events both local and general,
often inquiring concerning the progress
of the European war. She enjoyed
both hearing and telling wholesome
story, and would laugh heartily at the
climax. She was an intelligent, con-
sentative, kind woman of high charac-
ter. sound judgment and firm purpose.
Mrs. Farman was the eldest daughter
and second child of Orlando and Salome
Hitchcock Winslow. She was descend
ed from the Kenelm branch of the
Winslow family. Her paternal grand
mother was an Adams of the noted
Massachusetts family and her mater
nal grandmother was Stebbins. She
was born in Westfeld, July 30, 1926.
She attended the schools of Westfeld,
Montpelier and Derby academy. She
| taught several terms. On March IL,
1851, she married Ashley Farman, and
for IS years they journeyed life's path
way together. Mr. Farman died in
1906. Two children were born to
them. Leila Annie, who died in 1892.
and Marcellus Winslow, who survives.
Mrs. Farman and her son were con-
slant in their devotion to each other.
They read much together. She gave
him her unreserved love and sympathy.
Mrs. Farman is survived also by one
sister, Mrs. D. E. Wright, and by
nephews and nieces. She was not only
the oldest member of the Congrega-
tional church, having joined December
5, 1858, but also the oldest inhabitant
of the town. The funeral was held at
her late home on Tuesday afternoon,
