ANOTHER VETERAN GONE
Burroughs, Who Had Bee
inmate OF Soldierc' Home

William Burroughs, Who Had Been
inmate Of Soldierc' Home
The inmates of the Soldiers home
were greatly surprised and shocked
tn morning by the news that VII
liam Burroughs died at Mary fetch
er Hospital In Burlington yesterday.
He left here on the afternoon OF Jan.
4, apparently in his usual health, for a
short visit to his home in Burlington.
He was born in Richmond April q,
l846, but had lived in Underhill the
greater part OF his life, though he had
recently bought small place In Bur-
lington. Since Feb. II. 1920, he had
been at the Soldiers home, where his
conduct had been most exemplary
that of none more so~--and he had the
highest respect and good will of his
comrades. He was widower, with
no children.
Mr. Burroughs enlisted in Co. B,
nth Vt, from Colchester, Feb. rs,
1865, and was mustered out July IA,
1865.
No arrangements for his funeral
have yet been made, but burial will
probably be in Underhill.

IS 1t Good
Business

For the United States Government to
sell It's surplus property, turning it
into money that can be used where
best needed?
Is 1t good business for any govern.
ment, firm or individual to diJpose OF
that property Of which he has a great
surplus? According to business com
mon sense and acumen 1t would be
the height Of 70 ly for any one In busi-
ness to store up goods that cannot be
used for long time. The only pro.
per proceeding is to sell that which
you do net need and invest proceeds
in those things which you do NJ
IT, then, It Is agreed that this be-
true, why criticize the Red Cross for
doing those very things that you re,
gard as good business policy when
persued by others7
