DEATH OF
MARSHALL
,H
MONTGOMERY
Had the Longest War Re-
cord of Any Soldier in the
State of Vermont

Marshall Montgomery died at his
home on Harrison Avenue early this
morning, aged 81 years. Mr.. Mont
gomery had been in poor health for
some time and had retired from his
professional labors several years
ago.
Mr.. Montgomery was born in
Walden, March 26, 1889, being the
son of Serene and Hannah (Foster)
Montgomery. He was educated in
the public schools of his native town
completing his education at Peach-
am Academy, graduating in the class

For over 40 years he practiced law
in st. Johnsbury, serving in the
meantime as states attorney in 1884
86, and as referee in bankruptcy from
1899 through 1910.
Mr.. Montgomery had the unique
distinction of having the longest war
record of any man in the state of
Vermont. He enlisted May 10, 1861,
in the Third Vermont regiment and
on Nov. Il, 1868, was promoted to
the captaincy of Co. ID of the Tenth

:, REV. MIR. RANKIN
Baptist Pastor Describes
Conditions as He Found
A Them In France =.

Members of the Fortnightly Club
with Newport's elite represented, en-.
joyed very interesting talk by Rev
H. 3. Rankin, pastor of the First
Baptist church, at their regular BIZ
monthly meeting which was held
Wednesday afternoon at the home OF
Mrs. C. T. Bean of 25 Eastern avenue
Mr.. Rankin did not chose any spec
ial subject to talk on but gave a vivid
description of conditions in France
as he found them while in the SER
vice of the Y. NJ. C. A. overseas, and
also answered questions put to him
by the ladies present. Prior to Mr..
Rankin's address, the club prayer was
delivered and the roll call held.
In answer to question by a mem
Der as to whether American diplo-
macy was as good as foreign diplo-
macy, MI. Rankin declared that Am
erican diplomacy was so direct that
1t stunned the people of Europe but
got good results. Of course, he
said, it caused great deal of jeal-
ousy between the royal families.
Speaking of possible jealousy that
might have existed between the
French soldier and the American
doughboys, Mr.. Rankin said:
"The French officer received prac-
tically the same pay of the American
doughboy and the French soldier was
given but 25 centimes per day which
amounted to about S cents. in Am
erican money. The Russian soldiers
were paid but one cent a, day. The
Canadian and Australian soldiers
were paid as well as an y other SOL
dier.
"Of course the great difference in
the pay of the American and French
soldier caused more or less jealousy
between the two but all in all they
got along fine together.
"When the American soldiers
reached France the excessive thrift

Asleep at the Switch

Ben Allen of Philadelphia. met
with serious accident last Satur-
day night, and it is remarkable that
he was not killed instantly or badly
injured. He left Philadelphia about
midnight in Ford car, by himself,
and was so used to the road that he
acknowledges that he must have
drowsed off, for when he came to
himself he was at the bottom of the
ditch which is spanned by con-
crete culvert near the Thurwacter
farm. and the car was bottom side
up on top of him. All the injury
he received were a few scratches ON
his head, and he crawled out of a
small hole in the wreck and came
on to town for assistance. The car
is naturally badly used up, as it fell
distance of five or six feet. Near
ly everybody knows Ben, and it is
no use to say that he is as steady
as one of his own hearse horses,
but he was tired and went to sleep
and that's all he. knows about it.
AS strange as it may seem to the
uninitiated, such occurrences are
rather frequent. A person becomes
accustomed to driving car just as
he does horse, and the only diff
ference is that a horse has more
sense than an automobile. We're
willing to gamble. however, that
Mr. Allen does not have another
such experience. Palmyra Specta-

which will send the revised treaty
60 experts, who will report as soon

date from the German people 1t is
expected the consideration OF the
pact will be continued by the Cabl-
nat until Friday, and that the final
German answer will be laid before
the Assembly for ratification on
Saturday.
The detailed reply fails to make
material alteration There are some
concessions, but they appear to be
of a rather minor nature compared
with the demands made by the
Germans in their counter proposals
One of the principal concessions is
admission of Germany to the League
of Nations in the early future" If
she fulfills her obligations.
The majority of the members CT
the Peace Conference believe that
Germany will not sign the peace
treaty, according to Marcel Hutin
of The Echo de Paris, who made
canvass of the number of the lead
ipe personalities. Only one of these
leaders, M. Hutin declares. express
ed the opinion that Germans will
accept the revised treaty. This
member. however. is one whose
opinion. the writer says, he holds IN
the greatest esteem.
The delegate based his opinion
ON the fact that they have knowl'
edge that at Mondays meeting OF
the Council of Four a complete
agreement was reached on the con-
sequences which would follow Ger
many's refusal of the peace protfer'
ed. They were aware that peace
would then be imposed by force in
accordance with President Wilson's
Baltimore speech, and that orders
had been given for an Allied force
of 100000 men, supported by
heavy artillery of hitherto unreveal
ed power, to begin an advance on
the morning of June "a. Confront

Government and the National AS
