the food in all directions. The little
goIdfinches come often to take lunch

summation of the exchange that has
been made.
At a meeting Of the representatives
of the factory and Chicago the fol-
lowing telegram was sent TO Mr..
Morse as the unanimous feeling of all
present:
Recognizing your honesty, stabili-
ty of purpose, devotion, long and
faithful service. and the definite bear
ing all these have had in building up
both corporations and binding them
together with cords stronger than
mere business results could accom-
plish, the representatives of field and
factory join heartily in best wishes
and deep appreciation. A high re-
solve to safeguard, strengthen, and
continue all that you have helped es-
tablish and still are keenly interested
in, has been made by us this day. Be-
cause of all that you have done, and
are yet accomplishing, you inspire
confidence, determination, and efforts
that we hope will be crowned with
success to all concerned.
Fairbanks, Morse G. Co.
E. and T. Fairbanks and Co"
1t is because of a sentiment like
this that Mr.. Morse has been success
full and that he is interested to see the
greatest success of the plant here at
ST. Johnsbury The confidence with
which the present management is TAX
ing hold of the affairs of this company
is undoubtedly inspired by the fact of
Mr.. Morse's long association with the
business and that sharing with him
that desire. all will work together in
the best kind of team play to bring
the best results to st. Johnsbury and
the increasing of the renown and repu-
tation that the Fairbanks Scale has
always enjoyed The present plans
that are being made are the strongest
kind of assurance that increased
prestige and honor are in store for the
Fairbanks scale

with the death. March 8, of Domeni-
co Ragosto, an Italian woodchopper,
in the attic tenement on Meadow
street occupied by the Gruppos. The
arrest of the trio in Philadelphia was
the result OF a search extending over
three states. Warrants charging the
couple with murder were issued after
the finding of the body in the desert
ed tenement under circumstances
which gave rise to suspicious of foul
play. A theory that the mans death
was due to poison was abandoned
when an examination of the victim s
stomach and other organs showed
that the man probably had died a
natural death. States Attorney c. V.
the Gruppos and Massaro had guilty
knowledge of the affair. His conclus-
ions were based principally on the
fact that Ragosto was known to have
had a considerable sum of money in
his possession shortly before his
death and on the suspicious circum-
stance that the persons arrested mys-
teriously disappeared prior to the find
ing of the body.

IN FAMILY FOR ia YEARS
Farm Owned BY +. T.. BicldOrd In
North Danville Settled By Eli
BicIKfOrd.

The story circulated in the state
papers two weeks ago that the White
hill family at North Ryegate has
lived on the same farm for 118 years
brings to light the fact that Frank f..
Bickford of Danville can tell better
story yet, his family having lived on
the farm he now occupies for 124
years or four generations of the same
name. The first owner of the farm
was Eli Bedford born in 1884. After
a career of adventure during which
ne was taken prisoner by the English
and confined in prison for four years,
Eli Bickford married at Deerfield, m.
H. and in 1892 with his wife and four
children and a party of others came
to Danville where he cleared land and
put up a log house. Before he COM
pleted the house he had long illness,
but his neighbors finished his house
and he lived to rear a family of nine
children. Eli Bickford often recalled
seeing all the voters Of DanvilIe sit
ting on one log at town meeting. He
passed away in 1856 at the age Of 101
years and seven months.
At his death the homestead passed
into the hands of his son, John, born
in 1898. He married Maria Colby in
1928 and reared two sons and
daughter. One son, George became
Methodist minister; the other. Joseph
succeeded his father on the farm and
made a home for his parents and aged
grandfather. In 1853 he built new
house and married Olive Clark of
Cabot. They had two daughters,
Laura, the late Mrs. Franklin, and
Emma, Mrs. John P. Weeks of North
Danville, and one son, Frank E. Bick-
ford, the present owner of the farm.
