HOME TO STAY
George F. Meade besides to Give W
life ON the Ocean Wave

George F. Meade besides to Give Up
life ON the Ocean Wave
After II trips across the Atlantic ocean
on army transports. George F. Meade has
decided to settle in his native city of Bur-
lington. Mr.. Meade was Junior engineer
on the Antilles which was sunk $50 miles
off the coast Of France a year ago by a
submarine torpedo.
Mr.. Meade left Burlington to 60 to sea
a long time before war was declared.
After pursuing his peaceful vocation he
went on an army transport when they
needed people there.
There are some interesting side lights
on the sinking Of the Antilles. The ex-
plosion occurred at $40 in the morning
when Mr.. Meade was on the dog watch"
or course the men in the engineering
room don't know as much as the people
on the bridge when 1t comes to sighting q
submarine or a whole lot Of them would
walk out of their positions 30 feet below
the sea level. Meade was one Of the men
who was below the water line but he. like
everybody else. was invited upstairs after
the torpedo hit the ship.
According to Mr.. Meade, the worst time
in a mans life to be discourteous is when
he is getting into a lfeboat. A man with
tWO very well IOducu TeVOlVcTS StauOS HI
each lifeboat and the shots are intended
to kill people who insist on taking the
wrong boat.
Out Of the crew Of the Antilles $40 were
lost. This was largely because Of the
trouble In launching the lifeboats. The
ship did not sink until SO minutes after
the boat was struck.
Meade was for two days in a lifeboat
with p other men They mazda the 2y0
miles to France by rowing. The sub.
marines evidently made no attempt to
sink the lifeboats Meade and the rest of
them didn't even have time to ask fol
cigarettes for the reason that when they
were not rowing they were worrying.
1t seems that every lifeboat on a ship
putting out from this country is amply
provisioned. The boats are also ready to be
put on the top Of the ocean at a few
minutes notice. In the boat with Meade
and the other q were bread. canned meat
| and an ample supply Of water. When the
sailors arrived in France and were enter.
tanned by the French people they ate a
lot of things but none of them had been
suffering to any extent except for tho lack
of sleep.
Out of II trips made by Mr.. Meade the
only experience with a submarine is the
| ono quoted. During the last year he had
| made more than ten trips when a sub
mersible was not oven sighted.

three sons by the marriage, Charles,
Frank p. and Fred A. The bill further
alleges that the husband deserted in May,
1905, and has not lived with his wife
since that time.

Washington telling them that their son.
Vernon c. Buxton, has been slightly
wounded In action in France April 8.
This Is the second time young Buxton
has been wounded, the first time being
on March II. He was graduated from

afterward went to Elisabeth, N. J. He

Teresa Mary B. (squires) Young has
filed through her attorney, J. J. Enright.
a suit for divorce with separate support
for herself and her son, from Nelson
Young, Jr.. Of Burlington. In Chitten-
den county court, September term. The
libel alleges that the couple was mar
ried in Piattsburgh, N. Y, on July 6,
1914. and that they lived in Burlington
from that time to March Is, 1918. The
defendant has been guilty. so the libel
alleges. Of gross and wanton refusal
to provide maintenance for either the
libelee or her child, has used intolerable
severity on various occasions. The
couple has one child. George Emanuel
Young. born in Burlington December q,
1917.
Several hundreds of Burlingtonians
gathered in City Hall Park Saturday aft
ernoon to witness the raising of the COM
munity flag which this city SO decidedly
won last Monday by largely over-sub-
scribing its quota Of the third Liberty
Loan. Because Of the disappointment in
securing a speaker. Levi p. Smith who
was in charge Of the drive In Burlington,
took upon himself the task Of making the
speech after an Intellectual attempt to obtain
some one representing the government.
That Mr.. Smiths remarks met with the
hearty approval Of his audience was evil
denced by the cordial applause. The band
from Fort Ethan Allen, which stood SO
pluckily through the drive, was again
present and was very generous with
music.
The entire set Of officers Of 1s17-ls Of
the local council, boy scouts Of Burling-
ton. were reelected to serve for 1888
at the annual meeting Tuesday in the
Y. NJ. c. A. building. Urban A. Wood

sioner for one year. It was announced
that sol out Of the $3.50 included IN the
years budget had been raised. There
are now rs active members in the three
scout troops Of the city. and eight men,
bers are first class scouts. 1t was ar
ranged to have scout masters appointed
to carry on the work of the scouts dur
ing the summer. Mayor ]. Holmes Jack
son and the park commission have turned
! over to the scouts the duty of seeing that
the American flag in City Hall Park
is flung to the breeze each morning and
lowered each evening. Troop No. 2. from
the high school. is the first troop to
accept the duty.
