Hotel Again Onened.

Hotel Again Opened.
The townspeople of Putney were roy
ally entertained Sept. IA when Mr..
and Mrs. Ernest W. Parker, who for
merlv carried on the Mansion House
Mt Charlestown. n. H.. and who recently
leased the Kendrick House of DR.. L. II.
Bugbee. gave a public opening in the
form of a fine turkey dinner. Over 100
guests enjoyed the excellent menu, al
though the hosts had planned on only
10. During the evening Burditt's or
cbestra furnished music.
The interior of the hotel, which will
be known as the Tavern, has been
thoroughly renovated and those fami-
liar with the hotel as it was previously
are indeed surprised at the remarkable
transformation that it has undergone.
Every room has been papered and
painted and modern plumbing and cleo
tricity have been installed. The furnish
ings are very pretty and give the hotel
an unusually home-like atmosphere. The
town of Putney is fortunate in having
such a fine country tavern and wishes
Mr.. and Mrs. Parker every success in
their new undertaking.
The opening was for the townspeople
only, but later the managers plan to en-
terrain for the benefit of the people in
the surrounding towns.
