Repudia ted by Trustees

The Morrsville Trustees have repudi.
ated the action of one of their members
in the recent automobile episode and
have petitioned States Attorney Mau-
rice to noll PROSE-. the cases against the
S5 autoists who were fined for failing to
toot and to remit the fines already paid.
States Attorney Maurice took the m at !.
ter under advisement last Saturday and
has since been awaiting the action of the
Attorney General. Over SO of the num-
Der have already paid.
Morrisville business men are practi-
cally unanimous in their condemnation
OF the method taken on that memorable
Sunday. While the law regarding driv-
ing autos should be strictly enforced.
they are of the opinion that notice that
it would be enforced should have bee n
given. not only through the newspapers, s,
but posted conspicuously, instead of the
drastic measure resorted to.
In justice to Mr.. Parker, it should be
started that the matter was left in his
hands and he acted as he thought best.
On page four appear several press COM
ments concerning the matter.

"Bie John" Pinned Under Auto

John Ceuro of Morrisville an employ e
in the F. w. Mould stone sheds, has been
in the Barre City hospital since Sunday
last, suffering from a fractured collar
bone, a deep cut over the eye and ri
Gus bruises received in an auto accide Mt
in Montpelier last Sunday afternoon.
The accident occurred in E. G. Foss' new
Studebaker, in which were Ceuro, Mr. :.
Foss and two other men, with big
John" at the wheel. A report of the ac-
cident appearing in the Barre Times of
Monday says
"Foss is said to have been explaining
the working of the car, Ceuro, green
driver, was listening to Foss while at the
wheel, when he swerved the steering
gear to pass Ford machine, which was
going TOWARD Montpelier. AS the Stude-
baker neared the Ford car, it suddenly
wheeled on to the tracks of the Barre &
in the twinkling of an eye it had Topped
half way over. Two men on the rear
seat and Mr.. Foss escaped injury, but
Ceuro was pinned under the wheel, and
it was not until the strength of the three
passengers and a couple of bystanders
had combined to right the car that the
driver was released. Hospital attaches
said Monday that Ceuro passed a quiet
night and would undoubtedly recover
speedily. The car that figured in the ac-
cident was undamaged beyond a few
scratches"

Dear Sir: Five hundred programs
have been shipped to each of your
engagements. have tried to catch
everybody's taste from the most clas-
steal musician to the one that cares
for entertaining music The first
part of the program is for a New
York audience and so is the last part.
However, the last part would also be
enjoyed by an audience that has less
knowledge about music. The folk
dances are entertaining and even
cause smiles and laughter. ITALIA
hassee," by Cyril Scott, is of course.
written for Florida and / am giving
it as compliment to the Florida peo-
pie. The English composer, Cyril
Scott, met in Germany a young gen
tleman from your capital city, Talla-
hassee. The friendship between the
young American and the famous com
poser created this wonderful compo-
sition of modern music.
You viii notice from the programs
sent, that Miss Marie Ellerbrook is
substituting Nine. Heness. Nine.
Heness lost her mother a few weeks
ago and is unable to sing the Florida
engagements. When Miss Ellerbrook
of the New York Metropolitan Com
pany, heard of this, she at once Of
fered to fill her place. So Miss Eller-
brook is singing in the place of Nine.
Heness. Miss ElIerbrook is of the
type of Schumann-H eink,< and is prob
ably one of the most wonderful sing
ers of today. absolutely guarantee
for her success.
Very cordially yours,

MRS. NJ. A. E. ROBERTSON

Mrs. M. A. E. Robertson was born
in Talbot county, Ca, July 4, 1927,
and died at the home of her son-in-
law, L. T. Hendrix in Marion county.
She came to Florida in the fall of
1847, where she has spent the re-
mainder of her life. She was a wild
ow about II years, her husband hav-
ing preceded her to the better land in
1898. She professed religion and
joined the Baptist church in early
womanhood and gave the Lord the
best service of her life, having been a
member of the church 65 years. All
these years she was consistent, de-
voted Christian. Sister Robertson
was a true, faithful, consecrated
Christian woman. AS the years went
by she grew in the knowledge of the
Son of God and ripened into the full
and rich experience of all the graces
Of Christianity. The world had lost
all its attraction for her and she lived
in the full hope of the things which
God has in store for those who love
and serve him. Like st. Paul, she
had a desire to depart and be with
the Lord. She fully realized the ap-
preaching end. Her words were, 81
have been ready for this 65 years
ago and / feel that 1 am ready to go
Her death was peaceful and triumph
ant. Her work is done and the
master has said "Come We blessed OF
my father inherit the kingdom pre-
pared for you from the foundation OF
the world" A Friend.
