The Vermont Tribune, Ludlow, July 12, 1889 Weathersfield Center 7/12/1889 Last Sunday was Sacrament Day at the church, and REv. Mr. HERRICK of Felchville assisted Mr. PERRIN in administering the Lord's Supper. The vote at the special town meeting, last Saturday, was something of a surprise even to the friends of the measure. It was overwhelming vote in favor of exemption, there being only one dissenting voice, and he felt lonesome. July 4th was a dead letter. here. The rain even prevented haying, so people took a rest. Except for the occasional pop of a stray fire-cracker, the day seemed more like Sunday than a holiday. Haying is engaging the attention of farmers, now. No good weather has been had until the latter part of last week, and that was thoroughly improved. The crop is extra large, and of superior quality.
