her home on Congress avenue, on Sun
day morning. Oct. 3. On Wednesday
evening, Mrs. Seaver was present at
the supper given by the Ladies Aid
society at the Congregational church,

in the schools and academy of her
native town and also at the academies
of st. Johnsbury and Morrisville. In
1884 gMr. Seaver came from North
Troy to Barton and engaged in the
hardware business, and on Jan. 27,
1885 was united in marriage to Miss
Dawson, who Immediately became
closely identified with the church and
society work of the town and has
always been a most willing and eff
cient worker in every good cause. An
excellent musician, she was for several
years organist at the Congregational
church. of which she was member.
She was also for sometime member

it. She was prominent in all of the
churcn societies. the w. G. T. u, the
Eastern Star, Village Improvement
society, and other local organizations,
social and charitable, and for the past
two years had been most prominent in
the work of the Vermont Equal
Suffrage association, being a member
of it's legislative committee and had
been its corresponding secretary. She
was especially interested in the
schools of Barton and served one term
as member of the school board. Into
all her work in church and society she
brought a trained mind of unusual
ability and she was recognized not
only at home, but throughout the state
as woman of exceptional character.
force and intellect.
The sympathy of the entire commun.
ity goes out to the bereaved husband,
and also to the daughter, Miss A.
Clemma Seaver, who is now at home
and the son, Amory D. Seaver, who is
senior in the University of Vermont.
The funeral services were held Tues

Though the weather was most incle-
ment the church was filled with loving
relatives and friends. Members of the
w. C. T. u. and o. E. g., attended in
body, as did the employees of Mr..
Seaver. The church was profusely
decorated with flowers testifying in
their mute way to the esteem in which
the deceased was held.
Barton has lost woman, whose life
has been full of helpfulness and who
will be missed by all who knew her.

County Agricultural Association Notes.

Every farmer should be interested
in the second annual meeting of the
Orleans County Agricultural associa-
ton, which is to be held at Irasburg
town hall on Friday, Oct. Is, beginning
at .15 a. m. There are to be some
interesting talks by speakers from
outside the county, whom everyone
should feel it privilege to hear. A
big dinner will be served at noon and
a good sociabIe time is assured. Your
old friend, whom you havn't seen for
ever so long, will be there and you
will have an opportunity to renew old
acquaintances and form new ones.
There is always something new and
valuable to be learned from associa-
tions with your fellows in a gathering
of this sort, so you will be doing no
one a greater injustice than yoruself
by remaining at home. Men of all
other professions make a great point
of gatherings pertaining to their pro-
fession. IF the association has not
meant all that you anticipated that it
would come and let's have good
understanding in regard to the matter
and see if we can't cooperate to bring
about the desired needs. Last year
there were over 300 farmers in attend
ance at tina annual meeting, this year
we want even a better showing. The
attendance is not limited to men but
the women should share in this meet
ing and carry home something that
their husbands could not rema mber
