Mrs. Mary Morrill,.

Mrs. Mary Morrill,, whose death
was mentioned last week as occur
ring Wednesday morning, November
1, was born in Sheffield May 10, 1888,
and was therefore 83 years of age.
Her maiden name was Mary Bean.
She married John Ross in 1856,
and he died in 1879. She married
Charles E. Morrill, in 1895 and they
came to Barton and bought the place
on Park street where she has lived
since. Mr.. Morrill, died in 1903 and
his nephew, A. W. Morrill,, came to
Barton in May, 1904, and has lived
with her since.
She leaves one brother, John Bean,
of Springfield, Mass; three nieces,
Lettie Locke Of Lakeport, N. H., Mrs.
Robert French of ST. Johnsbury and
Mrs. W. II. Ford Of Springfield, and
one nephew, D. D. Bean Of ST. Johns
bury.
Mrs. Morrill, was one of Barton's
oldest citizens, and woman very
highly spoken of by all who knew
her and her life before her years of
decline.
The funeral was held from the
house Friday, Rev. w. A. Warner Of
fciating, and interment was at ST.
Johnsbury.

Popular Vote Very Close in Many
States. Republicans Appear to
Have Gained in Congress.

Early reports last evening gave
every indication that Hughes had
been elected president and at mid
night several Chicago, New York and
Boston dailies admitted that Hughes
would be elected, and all morning
newspapers declare Hughes the win
ner. At midnight news was given
out that Hughes had more than
electoral votes enough to win.
But this forenoon returns from
several states where the popular vote
was very close have changed these
figures to some exent and just before
noon the news was circulated that
Wilson had won by four electoral
votes.
The Monitor has made every effort
to confirm this report but has only
this to report. Chairman Mccormick
of the Democratic national committee
claims 2C8 electoral votes, while only
266 arc necessary for election.
Chairman Wilcox Of the Republican
national committee IS just as positive
in his statement that Hughes has
carried California and Minnesota,
two disputed states, and has won.
News reporting agencies admit
that it will probably be another day
before positive and final results will
be known. At least the contest is
very close.

Gives $4,000 for 2OO-Cow Farm.

One of the largest real estate deals
made in Orleans county in years, and
probably the largest farm deal ever
made in the county was consummated
Monday when W. e. Nye and son
decided to Thomas Bovine Of Derby,
their 900 acre farm (see picture on
page six) located three miles from
Barton village toward West Glover.
The Nyes took 200 acre farm located
in the town Of Derby, near Newport,
in the trade, making the property
valuation involved in the deal and
transfer of the two deeds, about
$4,000.
Mr.. Bovine is a practical farmer
with plenty of capital and has some
definite ideas as to what he will do
with his new property, on which there
are now 100 COWS, 35 head of young
stock, rs hogs, 10 horses, 200 hens,
so geese and probably $4,000 worth
of standing timber. The Monitor
understands Mr.. Bovine will increase
his dairy to 200 COWS, which the farm
is capable of carrying, and that he
will also raise sheep.
The farm is not only a good pro-
ducer but has every modern equip
ment. The buildings are electric
lighted, the stable is equipped with
a milking machine, there are electric
motors and everything to make farm
ing on a large scale easy and
profitable.
Mr.. Bovine takes possession of
his new property at once and Mr.
Nye goes to his Derby property.

LiteraS Club Halloween Party.

The annual Halloween party of the
Woman's Literary club was held at
the home of Mrs. II. W. Carter on the
evening of Nov. 1st and was the
most pretentious and entertaining
function of it's kind ever held by the
club. Mrs. Carter was a most char
ming hostess and the house was at
tractively decorated in orange and
black and with lighted jack-o-lan-
terms. It's straw buffers and lackeys
lent much to the Weirdness of the oc-
casion. After a short business meet
ing program consisting of an arti-
Gle on the origin of Halloween, was
read by Mrs. Zuar Hanson and Miss
Redfeld sang, Will-o-the- -Wisp" by
Spear and responded to an encore by
giving the Japanese Death Song,"
by Earl Sharp. Miss Kate Ferrin
read "The Jewel Box" a selection ap-
propriate to the occasion. Following
the program there was an hour of
real Halloween stunts with witches
and goblins galore, until even the
bravest of the brave had difficulty in
keeping their hair from taking sud-
den upward flights. The uncanny
pitch-dark lunch didn't seem to ap-
peal to the members as being soul
satisfying and therefore the company
adjourned to the dining room, where
a most excellent collation. had been
prepared and where once more in the
glow of the electrics, spirits began to
rise and such things as the shivery
oyster and the apex of the porker
were forgotten. Certainly a very
pleasant evening was enjoyed by all
of the thirty-odd members who were
present.

to the finding Of it's parents.

says papa" and grandpa" From
the actions of the boy, which physi-
clans say is Is or Is months old

where there are three, father, moth

believes it to be the work Of man.
The sewing on the hood looked like a
mans attempt and the shirt the child
wore was mans garment cut down,
while the stockings were many sizes
too small for the child. It was a
"botched" mess, as Mr.. Crandall ex-
presses it, and not the clothes of a
merely destitute child. The baby has
every appearance of coming from a
family of at least comfortable circum-
stances as he has been we'll fed, and
as those who have seen him say, is
sweet and very attractive.
A red and black horse blanket was
wrapped around the child when it was
left. The blanket shows considerable
wear from the thills and was appar-
