Fitzpatrick Sentenced for Man slaughter but Was Put on Probation. j It will be noted that all numbers in the course are scheduled for Thurs day and Friday nights which nights have been considered best for the general public. The Orpheus Four appeared in Barton in last year's course and was received with great enthusiasm. This number as well as the famous Dr. Conwell need no introduction to a Barton audience. The other numbers are equally good, Glenn Frank being associate editor of "Century Maga zine" while the other two concert companies are of the highest order. The course is one of the most ex pensive ever brought to Barton and is certainly one of great merit. Course tickets will be $2 plus war tax, single admission 50c plus war tax. Humphrey will resume her hospital work for a time. Congratulations. BARTON LOCAL NOTES Miss Nellie Gott is teaching in Al bany. Levi Frechette is working in the bank.

Leonard ,at Uno, Manitoba, from broncho-pneumonia, the result of German gas. Homer Maurice Leonard was born in Barton. July 11, 1887, the second son of Elmer L. and Leona (Leland) Leonard, one of a family of- eight children and this was the first break in the family circle, the youngest be ing 16 years of age. He was edu cated in the public school and took up farming as an occupation. In September, 1909, when quite young, he went to Missouri, and a year later he went with his brothers, Ralph and Reid, to the Canadian northwest for the harvest season. From there he went to Pasadena, Calif., where he spent the winter, returning by the way of the Northwest, where he spent the second harvest season be fore coming home. In 1912 he went to Westmore where he made his home for nearly four years. While there he made many friends and united with the Congregational church and was superintendent of the Sunday schooL When the call came for men to go to the front, he left his work and went to Fort Ethan Allen, where he enlisted June 30, 1917, staying there until September. He was then trans erred to Westfield, Mass., where he was in training until Oct. 3, when he sailed for France on the R. M. S Aura nia, with the 26th Division, be ing a wagoner in the ammunition train until the armistice was signed. He was made corporal June 2, 1918, and was always found ready to to do his duty, no matter how near the front nis train was called. He ar rived in Boston April 23, and partici pated in the parade of the famous 26th Division in Boston April 25th. He received his dicsharge April 29th and arrived home April 30th. Again when the government called for men to go to the Northwest for the har vest season, he left his work and with his brother, Harvey, left August 12 and worked in the wheat fields un til the 9th of September. On that day he was sent to a gravel pit for a load of sand and not returning as soon as expected friends went to look for him. He was found in an uncon scious condition and taken to a hos pital where everything was "done for him that could be, but he died at 4.30 o'clock the next morning. On Thurs day morning the brother, Harvey, who was with him, started on the long trip home with the remains, a distance of 1700 miles, arriving here on the L20 train, Sunday, Sept. 14. Prayer was held at the house Mon day, and the funeral service was at the church at Brownington Center and was largely attended. Many of his soldier friends from his company were present. The Rev. Kent, a pro fessor at Yale college, who has spent several summers at Willoughby lake and who was a personal friend of the deceased, spoke words of comfort to the relatives and friends, and he was laid to rest in the family lot at Brownington Center, the five broth ers acting as bearers. Homer leaves to mourn his loss his parents, five brothers and two sisters, Lawrence of Sheffeld, Ralph of Wil loughby, Reid of Derby Center, and Ruth, Harvey, Roy and Grace, who are at home, besides many rela tives and a host of friends, as he al ways won friends wherever he went. Card of Thanks We wish to ex tend our heartfelt thanks to all who were so kind in rendering aid and comfort in our great bereavement, for the beautiful flowers and letters sent in love for the departed, the singers from the Westmore church, the Brownington Center friends for the work at the church and grave, also to the people in the Far West who con tributed so much to the comfort of the sorrow stricken brother for his trip home. Mr. and Mrs. E. L. Leonard, and family. BARTON LOSES Newport Takes Exciting "Rubber"' Game at Orleans Last Week. Before what was probably the larg est crowd ever assembled in Orleans county to witness a ball game, Barton went down to defeat at the hands of Newport on the Skinner Athletic field in Orleans Wednesday afternoon, the score being 7 to 6, Newport thereby winning 75i of the $200 purse offer ed by Orleans. Many Newport, Orleans and Bar ton places of business closed for the afternoon and cars from North Troy, Derby Lane, Lyndonville. St. John- bury and as far south as Woodsville, r. 11 were in evidence, as well as from most of the towns in this part of the state, Orleans ticket - men. state that about 1800 people were present so that the $200 guaranteed they made was taken at the gate and a snug sum cleared for an Orleans team in 1920. Rooters for both sides had plenty of chance to exercise their lungs as both sides were ahead at different periods of the game. Lee pitched a good game for Bar ton but was hit at critical times and was rather raggedly supported. Though it is always easy to play a lost game differently, and win, af terwards, many believe a change in the Barton line-up would have proved much more effective. Though losing the" final game to Newport Barton - has made more scores against Newport than New port has made against Barton and is anxious to meet her again next sea son. As to cold feet, Newport now ad mits, after winning- the final game, that its feet are comfortable, fox which Barton is thankful, since it has never suffered from the trouble but knows such a condition is very un comfortable for the ailing ones. Wells never pitched a better game, keeping the hits well scattered and fanning Barton men at critical plac es. . The sorce: - - Barton Heath, s Barrows, 2 B. Lee, p Bovd, c Priest, cf T. Lee, 3 " H.
