bors were willing to help but some
of them were even worse off. Shoes
were so scarce all through Vernon,
even down to 1900 and later that it
was customary for men, women and
4 children to so barefooted from April
4 to November. IT, was considered
necessary to wear shoes at church on
Sundays and the historian of Poult-
lney, above referred to, states that it
was common for the people to sart
for church Sunday morning with their
shoes and stockings in their hands.
When near the meeting house they
sat down beside he road and dressed
their feet After church the process
was reversed This was to save
wearing out their shoes which were
hard to get and high in cost. 1t is

laborer of the present time lives bet
