of the church 64 years, and one of the
deacons 36 years, was chairman of the
building committee. He subscribe!
S100 toward the new hou? e, but being a
young man and without much means at
thnt time and a carpenter by trade, he
wotked out bis subscription by day's
work on the building. He has always
taken a deep interest in whatever per
tained to the welfare of the church.
Last year he gave a tower clock to be
placed upon the church, which cost
more than 9300.
' During the last two years the par.-cn-age
bas been repaired and renovated,
largely through a donation from Hod J.

MIDDLEBURY.
AT THE GHANOE.
On Tuesday evening the gentlemen fur
nished a varied and delightful program.
The singing of the Wood Brothers and
the male quartet was excellent. A num
ber of valuable original papers were pre
sented. Great had been the effort of the
brothers to outdo the sisters. Four judges
had been appointed to decide whether
they or the sisters had furnished the best
program. Two of the committee decided
for the Bisters and two for the brothers.
This Is quite perplexing, because the pre
vailing opinion is in favor of the broth
ers, but the chief complexity lies In the
grave question, who shall furnish the
next supper?
