DEACON JOHN H0LBRO0K (SECC'C ARTICLE) As Brattleboro grew, it became wire to ct nearer to the center of population nnd yonut; llolbrook. about 178"., became proprietor of a mill nsar the Erook and ow::r cf the iiou.se o:i Main S'rect hill which after ward bccatr.c t'ac American llovf-c. where the American Euildiivi now stands.

He soon went into partnership with David Porter of Hartford and .started the tin t line of flat bottomed boats on the river, importin.; l.irsc quantities of seeds frcm the West Indies. He also main tained a slaughter house cn the Island. A:u! a little later we find him livinR in the home which afterward became John H. Pdaho's on the pres ent site of THE VERMONT NATIONAL. In 1811 he sold his Erattlcboro hcn.c. store, and mill to Francis Goodhue nnd moved to Warehouse Foint. Connecticut, where he became one of the original directors of the o'.d Phoenix Bank cf HartTord. But the death of his daughter Patty's hr.sband, William Fcsscndcn. brought him tack to Brattleboro. to take charge of the printing and paper making business his won in law had founded. Undismayed by the ridicule of city publishers, he rnd his partner, Joseph Feasenden began work on an ex pensive edition of the Bible. The cost of this enterprise wa3 S30.000, an encrmons sum in those days. But the work proved ?. great success and the llolbrook & Fcsscndcn establishment became the leading industry of the town, with a yearly product of thirty to forty thousand dollars.

A comedy in which M ss Clark is one of the daughters of the Marchioness cf Castlejordan which the good lady is clothing as sons not having any time for girls. Miss Clark plays the girl that likes being a boy, and evidently Miss Clark doesn't have to act much. Sho is superb as a tomboy.
