Wostbrook, Me. " I was passing
through the Change of Life and had
pains in my back
and side and was so
weak I could hardly
do my housework.
I have taken Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vege

it has done me a lot '
of good. I will re- I
commend your med
icine to my friends
and give you permis
sion to publish my
testimonial." Mrs. Lawrence Mar
tin, VI King St.; Westbrook, Maine.
Mnnr.ton, Wis. "At the Change of
Life I suffered with pains in my back
and loins until I could not stand. I also
had night-sweats" so that the sheets
would be wet I tried other medicine
but got no relief. After taking one bot
lle of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound I began to improve and I
continued its use for six months. Th-i
pnins left m the nifiht-swcats and hot
flashes grew less, and in one year I was

William H. Fisher is one of the lo
cal men who served in the only Ver
mont cavalry regiment, the 1st Ver
mont Cavalry, that was raised for the
war. This regiment saw more active,
continuous service than a great 111a
ioritv of the regiments, and the men
who served in it. although some were
early iorced 1 roin the active service
list by wounds or 'disability incurred
in the line of service, had their fair
.share of fighting. Mr. Fisher was
not wounded, although he was in all
the hard service the regiment saw dur
ing the campaigns under Banks and
Hope in the Shenandoah valley. After
the second' battle of Bull "Run he was
discharged from the service on account
of disability. After the war Le Lad
some highlv interesting experiences in
the West. '
William Harrison Fisher was born in
Brattlcboro Sept. l.", 18.lt), a son of
Asa and Mary (Streeter Fisher. What
school education he obtained was when
a boy in Brattlcboro. When a young
man he went to Troy, X. Y., where
lie was employed two years as a 'steve
dore and where he cast his first veto
for Abraham Lincoln, He returned to
Brattlcboro. and it was here that he
enlisted in Company F, 1st Vermont
Cavalry. Aininjured ankle barred him
froln acceptance in the iufautry.
The regiment had its rendezvous at
Burlington, and from there went to
Washington ami was net long in camp
there and at Auuapotis before ordered
to the front with Banks's army. From
that time on it was ride and skirmith
and fight most of the time. An in
jury finally forced Mr. Fisher's dis
charge from service, and he returned
to Brattlcboro. He went to Walling-!
ford and for two years worked at mak
ing ox bows, but came back to Brat
tlcboro and worked as a carpenter, lie
married hero Sarah Cole, daughter of
Hollis Cole, and she died eight years
ago last December.
In 1SS Mr. Fisher with his wife and
daughter, who is now Mrs. .lohn Haw
fon of (5 Forest street, with whom Mr.
Fisher makes his home, went West,
lured to a place V.O miles from Dickin
son, North Dakota, by delightful tales
f the fertility of the country and the
prospects of immediately becoming
wealthy. He is rather proud of the
fact that he spent five years there, in
Washington and in Oregon and got
i "
back to Boston with $400, the amount
he had when he started on the long
.journey.
They found the North Dakota locality
anything but what it was advertised to
be and the section lit for nothing but
tattle raising. Families left almost as
fast as they arrived, but Mr. Fisher
remained for two years and during that
time found time to hunt antelope, dig
wells, beard cowboys and exist com
fortably. Soon alter he left there the
battle with Sitting Bull took place and
the house and barns which Mr. Fisher
left wore the headquarters for the of
ficers in charge of the troops that
later had the battle in which Sitting
Bull was killed.
Among his experiences while there
was a walk of M0 miles in seven hours
and 10 miuutes in a snow storm for
the purpose of having two tooth ox
traded. lie remained over night and
rode back the next day. He sank one
well to a depth of 100 foot and four
inese only to find the water undrinkable.
That cost him over l!0H, but it gave
him experience in sinking welts and he
did considerable work along that line.
So many hud left the little settle
ment that there was no opportunity for
schooling and rather than come back
Fast he struck off to the extreme West,
finally binding at Montesano, Wash
ingtcii, where lie remained over a year
carpentering. Work became scarce and
he went to Dalles, Oregon, whore a big
lire had made a great demand for car
penters. He found plentv of work
there and sent immediately for hi
family. There he remained o or tw
vears and nnallv came to liostoii in
lso. He brought back a, spaniel he
had taken West with him.
After a short time in Boston tin
fanulv moved back to Brattlcboro and
here Mr. Fisher has remained since
and for the past 17 years has livet
whore ho does now. Vp to a short time
ago he worked steadily as a carpen
tor, but retired on account of advanc
ing years.
