Jean Louis Robert VS.. Fitzgerald Land
& Lumber Co. for breach of logging
contract. This will take several
days; there are also several other
long cases in line. On the whole
this bids fair to be a record term for
length.
Moreover, Guildhall is booming in
more respects than one. The aban-
doned mill, built several years ago,
has been purchased by some New
York company which is making
thorough repairs preparing to
manufacture paper on an extensive
scale. If we had a hotel large
enough and free bridge in place of
the old tumble down toll bridge,
Guildhall would surely be on the
map to stay for no more beautiful
town geographically can be found
in Vermont.

For several days the past week
Mrs. John H. Wright of New
York, formerly Jessie Dunbar, was
entertained at the home of Edward
Dickson, with her two year old
daughter, Florence Ellen. She
called on as many of her old friends
as possible III so short time. Mrs.
Wright manifested great pleasure
at the cordial way her old friends
greeted her, and only wished that
her visit i'll Island Pond might
have been longer.

Boston on business last week
played with the New England
Checker League against Boston,
winning all but one game out of a
possible eight and played a draw
with S. Crumb, who played fifteen
boards at once, the "3-S cross
variation. This speaks very high
ly of Mr.. Moulton who is not con-
tinually at the game and does not
consider himself professional.

rem in masonry were present at the
tenth district meeting held here on
Saturday afternoon and evening.
While there are but seven lodges in
this district, the visiting masons
from other districts made total Of
thirty lodges represented. Harry C.
Belknap was initiated into the first
mysteries of the art in the afternoon
and in the evening Francis H. John
son was made a master mason.
Banquets were served simultaneously
in the banquet hall of the opera
house block and the Stewart House
dining room so that practically all
were accommodated at one seating.
The Masonic Symphony Orchestra
furnished excellent music during the
supper hour and in connection with
the work in the evening. At the
close of the work, Grand Lecturer
Hartman offered such few correc-
tions as he found and spent some
time in explaining certain features
of the ritual. Deputy Grand Master
Stannard spoke for the tenth dis
trict. Grand Secretary Ross was on
hand with his usual amount of good
stories interspersed with a serious
talk as to what constituted High
Mason" The evening closed with
a brief but eloquent address by
Grand Master Charles H. Darling
of Burlington, dealing chiefly with
the origin of the first three degrees
of masonry.

Through careIessness in makeup
several editorials appeared in this
paper last week which bore no rela-

go in but in the hurry of makeup
slid in somehow. We intend to re-

cover the state and general condi-

state that while on the road we have
been frequently requested to print
locals of Newport, Stanstead, Beebe

and have concluded to do so. We
think many will appreciate this.
