The Vermont Tribune, Ludlow, Friday, February 5, 1886 Chester 2/5/1886 SOUTH STREET Mrs. W. S. HOYT is very ill, and cannot live long. Charlie BOLLES has gone to Ludlow, to work at carriage-painting. Little Susie HADLEY has been ill,--threatened with pneumonia,--but is better. The following letters are advertised at Chester post-office: Mrs. M. T. ADAMS, Silas AMIDON, BOLLES Bros., Z. T. FREEMAN, Joseph HASTINGS, Ed. HOLDEN, Harvey MACK, Mrs. David PIPER, G. H. RICHARDSON, Giddings SHEPARD, Samuel SMITH, Ida J. MUNROE. A petition to the president, remonstrating against the pardon of Silas M. WAITE, was circulated here, this week, receiving a large number of signatures. WAITE took fifty thousand dollars out of this town, and his victims naturally don't have much pity for him, and prefer that he should stay in prison until his sentence was out, at least; and a good sum of money could be raised here, today, to push the other indictments hanging over him.
