Bennington County groups plan events and parade
The Bennington Congregational church schedules a March 16 17 meeting on what God wants of us. A Behingrad Electric Railway Company meeting ends with confidence that building work will start when weather permits. Vermont troops may escort Governor Grout in the Washington inaugural parade with Co M Burlington and Co I Brattleboro likely to appear. Captain Fillmore may lead. State funds are unavailable so costs fall to participants. Dr Webb offers five sleeper cars and use of a coach for Washington to save lodging.
