More About Former Resident

V. VI. Vickery. concerning whom
something was said in our last issue,
will be recalled by many Skowhegan
people who were familiar with our
town in the 1SS0s and 1S90s. He was
in the dry goods business here, the
location being that now occupied by
the Milburn Fruit Company. Mrs.
Vickery was an efficient saleswoman
and assisted her husband in the store
during most of the business day. She
and Mr. Viekery were particularly
fond of horses, and always maintain
ed a nice driving outfit. Mrs. Wick
cry also was very fond of horseback
riding. Their home was, for time,
on Water street, in a house which
stood on the land now occupied by
the Fairgrounds area of the Catholic
school The Mrs. Vickery spoken of
herein was afterwards divorced and
subsequently married Southerner
and went to live somewhere in the
Southern States. After leaving
Skowhegan, Mr.. Vickery was travel
ling salesman for a dry goods con-
Germ, and a little later, with others,
started factory for the manufac-
ture of children's rompers and boys
suits, in New York State. Subse-
ouently, he disposed of his interest
in this factory and went into the real
estate business. Among his deals in
this line was the sale of business
block, last spring, for $47,O He
also sold his home ON Highland ave
nue., in Worcester, Mass, having pre-
viously rented it, furnished for $50
per month, while he passed the win
ter in Florida. He is now building
a nice home on the adjoining lot to
the valuable property just referred to,
his former Worcester residence. Mr..
and Mrs. Vickery had one daughter
Lulu. This daughter married a
Western man, and they lived on his
ranch in Montana until his death a
short time ago. Her home is on the
ranch. but she is at present touring
