in order to relieve the darkness that
has been hanging like a heavy pall
over the town during the week Mr. E.
11. Fish commenced on Tuesday even-
ing to put his lamp out in front of his
tonsorial parlor, and it is needless to
say the gloom Was much dispelled
thereby and the light was very wel-
canie. Many people will remember
the time when the streets of Exeter
were lighted by just such lamps on
the toles of posts here and there. hut
few will recognize Mr. Fish's lamp at
the identical one which has the dis-
tinrtion of being the first light to he
placed on the streets of Exeter and
regularly lighted. Such Is the case,
however; the same base, the same
burner. the same chimney, the sante
glass CARP, and all on the same old
post. The lamp passed into the hands
of the town when the council,of which
the late Jaynes Pickard and John San-
ders were members, decided to place
lamps along the streets, but was re-
turned ag81n to the csre of Mr. Fish
when the electric Tight plant was in-

his general store business to Messrs.
Jones & (:lark of \Vinchelses, while
the business of the latter firm has been
purchased by Mr. Thos. Coward of Us -
borne. The transfers of pr()pert v have
not yet taken place and will not he ef-
fected until the end of the year. \Vhile
the people will regret that Mr. Spack-
man has decided to retire from busi-
ness they will welcome the than of
Jones& Clark to town and wish theta
every success. It is the present inten-
tion of Mr. Spackman to move to To-

Exeter, where they have been much
respected residents. On Monday even-
ing last the occasion of the fiftieth an-
niversary of their wedding day was
celebrated by an evening of enjoyment
at their home. where there were as-
sembled about thirty guests, consist-
ing of relatives and friends from town
and front a distance. A most enjoy-
able evening was spent, an excellent
supper was served, and many words
of a congratulory nature together with
choice and valuable presents were ex-
tended to the now aged couple. Be-

were present from other points: -Two
grandsons, Edmund and Wilbert, of
Fort Wayne, ind.; Miss Montagne of
