    3. The Vermont Tribune, Ludlow, Friday, February 12, 1886 Plymouth Five Corners 2/12/1886 A surprise (?) party at George CHENEY's tomorrow (Tuesday) evening. A dance, Tuesday evening, Feb. 1st, in the hall of what was designated the GLEN house in the days of its prosperity. Another cold wave, and it continued to "wave" until thermometers, Friday morning, said 23 and 24 degrees below zero. School closed, Saturday, at term of ten weeks which has been interrupted three times by funerals; which shows death as been unusually busy in our midst. We enjoyed a lecture from Mr. TUTTLE, Friday evening, his subject being "The Mound-builders." Fifty years ago Mr. TUTTLE, in the capacity of what we now style a "drummer," traveled quite extensively in the Western states. In company with two German archeologists he spent considerable time examining some of the more important works that peculiar people embossed upon the face of Mother Earth. His lecture proved interesting, and was listened to attentively by those present. He will, in another lecture, tell us of the Northmen.
