The couple expressed a preference that the ceremony be per- { formed by an Episcopalian clergyman, | but found that Rev. W. H. Davis, pas | tor of St. Alban’s, s out of town this week. Rev. W. H. Darbic of Wood- stock, Va., who happens to be visiting at his home here and acting during the absence of Rev.

C. H. Barber performing the ceremony. In the certificate Mr. Hill gives his occupation as a merchant and also { states that this is his second marriage, he having been a widower. Why the couple came to Danielson from New York to be married is not nfade clear. SNARES AND SCENTED BAIT Being Used in Town of Brookiyn, Con- trary to Law. The matter of using snares to catch | foxes over in the town of Brooklyn, a | practice regarded by legitimate sports- men as a rank injustice to them, will probably be referred to the state game | commission. It is contended that while | the towns pay a bounty on each fox | killed, snaring fs not among the meth= | ods that should be used to catch the wily animals, and that when a man ts a snare he has no right to assume | that nothing except a fox will be | caught. There is a law against snar- ing. There is also talk that scented | bait is Leing used, which is absolute- Iy forbidden under the statute. $100 STOLEN From Safe in Union Mills Office—Brok- en Open With a ‘Sledge Hammer. pioiiis | A small safe in the office of the Un- ion mills, owned by the Aldrich Mana ufacturing company, was smashed gpen with a sledge hammer sometime | carly Wednesday morning and money #mounting to about one hundred dol- aken.

BURLEIGH DRAFT Made Twenty Years Ago Being Cor- rected and Amended to Date. About twenty years ago there came to Jewett City a man named Burleigh who with his assistants r.ade a pen plcture of the village. From this pic- ture, with the ascistance of a number of sketches drawn from the various hilitops round about, a fine and ac- curate draft was made. There wire over 200 sold in town. Where the hig Aspinook plant now stands is shown, the old ball grounds, the woods and lots which belonged to the Falls priv- fleze, then owned by the Johnson helrs. Many of the old houses which have been moved in the Jast two de- cades are shown in thelr proper places. George H. Prior, who is much inter- ested in such matters, has taken one of these drafts this winter and is marking in and cutting out and other- wise annotating the many changes, his purpose being to bring the draft up to date. Mr. Prior is anxious to get a picture of the old Fanning gambrel roofed stor~. This store was built just after the close of the Revolution, being moved elghteen years ago by Frederick H. Fanning, who built a ‘new houws near its site. Tn looking un the old papers a valu- able manuscript has been furnished by Chas, Edw. Prior of Hartford, written a.mi published by him, regarding the famous “Picket Fence Club,” which a quarter of a century ago used the old gambrel roofed store and the long bench outside for its r'-htly meeting. Many of its distinguished members have long since been lald to rest among their kin, and their children. boys and girls then, are now men and women. The original manuscript co tairs an account of an excursion of club, told in a most interesting style About the Borough. Mgr.
