says the Palatka News. "Many of the
farmers sold out during the first half

trips in his truck to get fresh sup

be a success in some places, but in
others the housewives still prefer to
order by telephone and take what they
can get from the things "picked over

is 1T BRUCE?


The surname Bruce may be traced
indirectly to the Norman French
word meaning thicket or brush. In
Normandy there are places so de-
rived spelled Bruys Bruis or
Brousse. There was a baronial
family that took its name from its
family seat OF Bruis. Robert de
Bruis was a wealthy baron who went
to England with William the Con-
queror and was given extensive lands
in Yorkshire. This is said to be
the origin of the great Scotch fam
lily OF Bruce. One branch of the
Yorkshire family went to Scotland
and established the distinguished
Bruce family there.
An early Bruce family here was
founded by John Bruce who came
from Edinburgh and settled in Sud
bury. Massachusetts. where he was
living in 1912. His descendants are
to be found in Maiden and other
Massachusetts, towns. Many of the
men have been Amherst graduates.
There was a George Bruce, from
Scotland who landed in Boston and
settled in Woburn, Massachusetts,, in
