The Vermont Tribune, Ludlow, Friday, April 16, 1886 Sherburne 4/16/1886 Herbert L. BATES is canvassing, this bad traveling, and is making good wages selling an article to cook griddle cakes. Fred SPAULDING recently had an attack of rheumatism which deprives him of work, but was able to ride to see the doctor at Bridgewater. Elisha ORCUTT is quite poorly, this spring, being troubled with his old complaint--heart disease. He sent for Dr. BRIGHAM, last week. The cry of a poor sugar season will soon pass off, as some people are compelled to boil all night to save their sweet, being short for storage. It is reported that we have three or four ministers in town, visiting and preaching. It is said they come from the north part of the State, and belong to the Advents or Seventh-day Saints. The lumbering business is a little dull, just now, on account of bad roads, though Frank TOWNE has got his steam power in motion and the wheels and gearing run smooth and lively. He has begun turning out chair legs. Transcribed by Ruth Barton -- Ruth Barton [email protected] Dummerston, VT
