Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph Doyle and
two sons, who have spent their va
cation here, left Saturday for their
home in Milford, Mass. "Joe," as
he is Familiarity called, is one of
Franklins boys of whom she is
proud. By his own efforts, he OBJ
one of the% leading lawyers of his
section in Massachusetts, and is
highly respected as a citizen. He
is devoted to his old home town, es-
pecially to the high school in which
he offers substantial prizes every
year for excellence in different ac-

Franklin A. A. defeated Waltham
in hard-fought game of baseball
Saturday. The features of the game
were the base running of the Smith
brothers, and battery work of Wal
than. One of the interested, spec
tators of the game was Robert Phil
lips, Civil war veteran, who was
catcher of the famous "Modoc" club
of Cherryfield, one time champions
of Eastern Maine. Evidently base
ball runs in the blood, for his son
Walter was for years the leading
pitcher in this section, and his
grandson, Lawrence, bids fair to
follow in his fathers footsteps. An
other grandson, Francis, plays
league ball in New hampshire, and
several others have been stars in
"prep" schools.
Another of our Civil war veterans
who is noted for keeness of mind
and wonderful memory is E. W..
Smith Modest as to his own partic-
ipation in it, his recollections of the
war are intensely interesting. AL
though he is much past four score
years, he was the medium through
which the great part of the towns

One of the interesting places IN

town from which stone for street
work was shipped, and through all
the hazards peculiar to the stone
business, has, by good management,
always been a place of continuous
activity and prosperity. In the be-
ginning there were no derricks and
the stone was hauled by oxen on
drag across long pole bridge to
little wooden pier for shipment. Now
there are hundreds of feet of stone
wharf, and where the pole bridge
extended across the cove, there are
acres of stone yards with modern

A WORD OF APPRECIATION

The minister of the First M. P.
Church, having just closed one OF
the best revival services in the his
tory of the church, desires to pub
licly express his great appreciation
of the splendid cooperation of all
his people. The choir, the Mems
Chorus, the mems quartette, Mrs.
Kenton and Mrs. Dickerson, and the
organist, Miss Lillian Bruning; all
deserve special mention. And the
large congregations, and the splen-
did number of efficient personal
workers who attended nightly, have
made the excellent revival possible.
And 1 would not forget to thank
those of other churches for their
attendance and cooperation. Espec-
tally do I want to express my great
appreciation to Rev. Samuel G.
Welch, pastor of the First Baptist
Church, and his congregation for
calling off their meetings for last
Friday and Sunday nights and
merging their congregation with
ours. This shows a fine christian
spirit, which is growing more and
more these days. AS pastor of the
First NJ. P. Church, I also want to
say that never have I worked with
an evangelist who was more eff
cient in his methods, and who pre-
sented the gospel more strongly,
and yet tenderly, than the evangel-
ist, the Rev. John Moses Baker, of
Baltimore, who led us in this won
derful campaign.
Very cordially,
J. FRANKLIN BRYAN, Minister.
