The Vermont Tribune, Ludlow, Friday, August 9, 1889 Proctorsville 8/9/1889 Oscar BRYANT is proving his right to a reputation as a first-class cabinet-maker, as well as a carpenter, having finished, last week, a handsome wardrobe of black ash, paneled with black walnut, which would have cost in a furniture store not less than $35. Twenty tickets were sold at this station for the excursion to Providence Island, Tuesday. Norman THOMPSON has sold his stock of goods to L. B. and Geo. M. MOORE of Plymouth, who will continue business in the C. D. PARKER store. Mr. THOMPSON will clerk for Mr. MOORE , for the present. Mrs. Milton MOORE has gone to Billerica, Mass., to visit her sister. Mrs. Henry BAILEY returned, Monday, from a week's visit to her son in Rutland. Harry TAYLOR is with his mother, at their home in this place. John SEAVER and family are spending a few days among relatives of Mrs. SEAVER in Mechanicsville. Fred EATON has so far recovered from injuries received in a game of base-ball, early in July, as to dispense with the use of crutches. He went to New London, Conn., Monday, to take a position on a dock of the N. L. & N. R. R. We wish to express our thanks to the neighbors and friends who so kindly assisted us during the sickness and death of our little Florence; also to those who contributed flowers. May they never want for friends in their hour of bereavement. Ulrie T. ROSS, Mary E. ROSS, Lovina E. ROSS. Transcribed by Ruth Barton -- Ruth Barton mrgjb@sover.net Dummerston, VT
