Fred Marsh, Prominent in Town Affairs,
Died Suddenly.

Fred NJ. Marsh passed away very sud
denly on the night Of Sept %, death be-
ing caused by heart trouble, resulting in
a clot of blood lodging at vital spot in
his brain. The community was greatly
shocked at his sudden death, as he was
man who was held in high esteem by
his townspeople and all who knew him

hardships of life he was oak and rock
in sunshine he was vine and flower He
was the friend of all heroic souls; he
loved the beautiful, He was worship
per of liberty and friend of the op.
pressed.
A human soul went forth into the night
Shutting behind Deaths mysterious
And shaking off with strange resistless
might,
The dust that once it wore
So swift its fight, so suddenly sped,
As when by skillful hand bow is
bent,
The arrow hies-those watching round
the bed,
Marked not the way it went
Through the clear silence of the moonless
dark,
Leaving no footprints of the way it
trod.
Straight as an arrow cleaving to its
mark,
The soul went home to God.
Alasl they cried, he never saw the morn,
But fell asleep outwearied with the
strife;
Nay, rather, he arose to meet the dawn
OF everlasting life.

FARM BUILDINGS BURNED.
Loss Considerably Over $4,000, the
Amount of Insurance.


Vergennes, Oct 2-The dwelling
house, horse barn and small hay barn
on the farm in Waltham owned by Mrs.
Mary Goodall of Vergennes were totally
destroyed by fire on Tuesday afternoon.
The only person about the premises was
an elderly woman, Mrs. Chapman, the
housekeeper. She was overcome by
smoke and was carried out in an uncon-
scious condition. The fire broke out
in the hay barn, but how it originated
is mystery, although it is thought it
may have been due to spontaneous COM
bustion.
No estimate of the amount lost can
yet be given, but besides the greater part
of the contents Of the house about 20
tons of hay, 200 bushels of oats and some
farming tools and wagons were de-
stroyed. 1t is reported that Mrs. Good
all had an insurance of $4,000, but the
loss, it is believed, will far exceed the
insurance Mr. Gilmore, who carries on
the farm, had no insurance.

REVENUE COLLECTIONS
FOR YEAR SHOW INCREASE
Collections of Internal Revenue In
Seventh District Much Larger
Than Last Year.

Taxes collected in the Seventh In
ternal Revenue District during the
year ending June 30, 1919, total APP
proximately $3O,OOO,OOO, of which al
most $25O00,O00 was collected as tax
on Intoxicating liquors.
These figures were made public
Saturday at the Office of Collector Ell
wood Hamilton of Lexington. These
figures are almost double those which
give the amount of taxes collected for
the year ending June 80, 1918. To be
exact, totals for the two years are re-
spectively $29,673,01012 and $14,366.-
202.13, difference of $l5,306 ,S07.99.
The reason given for this increase is
that in the last year, the tax on "spir-
its" was advanced from $500 to $6.4O a
gallon.
Income tax paid in this revenue dis
trict during the past year amounts to
! $3.50, ,S044S. The difference between
| the total tax and the amount given as
| income tax is what is known as mis-
cellaneous tax, the much larger part
| of which is tax on liquors.
Total collections for June, the last
month in the taN year just ending
amount to $1,S25,23976.
