Georgetown.
About forty young people making up
four jolly loads enjoyed a sleighride to
Redding last we'ek, to attend a supper
at the home of George Stevens, for the
benefit of Umpawoag chapel.
There is a large amount of conjec-
ture as to the name of the next ap
pointee to the Georgetown post-office.
The name of a genial railroad official
seems to receive the most favor.
Westley Barrett is slowly recovering
from his little wrestle with a tall oak
that from a little acorn grew. Mr.
Barrett sustained a broken rib in the
encounter. The tree which had lodged
in one of its neighbors after being fell?
ed, was being cut away by him when it
gave way suddenly and started for the
ground with Mr. Barrett in hot pursuit.
Mr. Barrétt weighs about 20.0 pounds,.
and land on his fallen foe with force
enough to break his rib.. He has re-
ceived many congratulations on escap-
ing so easily.
