State Normal School offers training for teaching with spring term starting March 24. Address J A Cooper Edinboro Pa.

Mystery Hermit of Fulton County Promises Lasting Fame
A lengthy Albany newspaper account recalls a semi hermit living on a dingy red farm in Fulton County who once served as consul to Naples and heir to a vast estate. He hobnobbed with Longfellow Bryant Emerson and others, writing and reading, while weekly boxes of books arrived from New York. A fearsomely private life ended with a death in Stratford near Little Falls, and critics/writers may yet reveal his epic or poetry to the world.
