Charles Martin, the bicycle dealer, 
has moved from the store he has been 
occupying in Neighbors’ hall block, 
soon to be occupied by the post-office, 
and has taken another store in the 
block. Mr. Martin, it is understood, 
intends to add an automobile repair 
shop to his business the coming sea- 
son. 
George Larcom, the oldest person 
in the Farms, beloved and respected 
by all, Monday observed his 90th 
birthday. A few friends called to 
pay their respects. Mr. Larcom has 
grown quite feeble the past few 
months, and he is not so active as he 
wasa year ago. He is one of the old 
stock, a son “to the manor born.”’ 
Last Saturday, while driving by 
sleigh through Manchester, S. John 
Connolly and Miss Mary Casey of 
Providence, R.I., had a very narrow 
escape from a serious accident. Part 
of the harness broke, and the horse, 
which was a rather frisky one, became 
almost unmanageable. In order to 
avoid further accident Mr. Connolly 
was obliged to drive the horse against 
a passing lumber wagon, which fore- 
thought resulted in bringing the ani- 
mal to a rather abrupt stop. The 
sleigh was slightly damaged, but the 
occupants escaped with a shaking up, 
and ‘‘John”’ has been around with 
bandaged knuckles this week. 
The fixtures for the new post-office, 
soon to be locatedin Neighbors’ block, 
are now being made in Boston, and it 
is thought they will be set up next 
week. The post-office, in all proba- 
bility, will be docated in its new quar- 
ters the middie of this month.

piano. fund of the Y:.P5.C’E. ~The

on attending the concert.
