On this their wedding day.

On this their wedding day.
Now on that New Years morning
While calmly lay the snow,
They pledged their troth to last for
life
Twas fifty years ago.
So hand in hand they have Travelled
Upon 1ife's rugged road
Three laughing boys and two bright
girls
Have come to their abode.
Now these are left them all alive
And as we meet today,
We feel that God has been most kind
And kept grim death away.
In all the years that's gone and passed
When sorrow to them came
1t was their love that gave them hope
And cheered them on again.
Each in the others sympathieS
We find them ever true
AS William was i'll "'G1'
To the old Red White and Blue
| tried them out as neiShDorS
And found it true indeed
When wanting love and sympathy.
They were your friend in need.
We wish them peace and happiness
III their declining years.
May they come at last TO the land of
hope.
Where there shall be no more tears.

DERAlLED FREIGHT CAR NEAR
LYNDON TIES UP TRAFFIC

The dcraAmcnt of a car on a freight
train near the Lyndon depot tied up
the main line Of the Boston and Name
Railroad for u time Saturday after
noon. A Wrecking crew from LyndCn-
vile cleared the track in a short time
and traffic was resumed some over
an hour later. a number of freight
trains were held in the st. Johnsbury
yards waiting for orders to proceed on
their way north.
Although the rush of the holiday
season is over the trains on all lines
still continue to be from a few min
utes to over an hour late. The night
trains are particularly late, both north
and south, but more often it is the
Springfield train, due to arrive in St.
Johnsbury at $50 am, that is run
ming behind schedule. Passenger traf
tic during the Christmas season is said
by trainment, to have been heavier
this year, than for a number Of years.
In all branches of the mail service
the seasons mails were exceptionally
heavy Since the passing of the holi-
day rush, conditions have again re-
turned to normal at the local freight
Sheds. While the through freight pass
ing this point is reported as being hea-
Wy, the local freight is also reported
as being light for the past few days.
Only a small amount of local freight
is being handled.
Although many roads have put an
embargo on certain products to case
the car shortage which is severe at
some points, the situation on the BCs-
ton and Maine Railroad, especially in
the northern divisions is reported to
have clarified, SO that plenty of cars
are available for use. Though cars
are kept moving to point of destina-
ton, and back to the shipping point,
to aid any connecting road that may
he in need Of freight cars.

MARSHAL REED NOT
OBEYING HAVNER

Davenport, Nov. 26.-Everyone who
transports quantities of booze from a
wet state into a dry state will be
promptly arrested. according to =
statement made by United States
Marshal Nicholas Reed, who "set at
rest" rumors that recent ruling by
Attorney General Havner to the ef-
feet that people could bring booze in
to Iowa if it were for their own. con-
sumption, would curtail the activities
of his men. Marshal Reed emphatical-
ly declared: II am not taking orders
from Havner"
The marshal stated that whenever
person was discovered with the
goods" on him an arrest would be
made.
The situation, according to the
slant given it by the United States
marshal's Office, seems to be this:
Home consumption or no home
consumption, beer, wine or liquor,
cannot be peddled from Illinois Tor
any other wet state) into Iowa.

SALESMAN'S
BODY is FOUND

Shenandoah, Nov. 26.-The lifeless
body OF John G. Miller, piano and
talking machine salesman, was found
J under a truck at the foot of>a twelve
Moot embankment at a bridge between
{ Bingham school and Bingham. There
ARE two theories as to how he died
He either died OF heart failure before
the car went off the bridge or was
kmothered in the sand in the bottom Of
the ditch under the upturned automo-
bile. There was no indications of a
struggle and no water was found in his
lungs. Death could not have been by
drowning, although there was foot
and a half of water and sand in the
/, ditch. There are but few marks on his
ibody, bruised place on the forehead
and a cut in the back Of the head.
