The club met Dec. 17, with Charles Atkinsou, Town farm The question of the evening was: "Town Farm: Is it for the best interests of the town to own a farm on which to keep the poor " Mr. Atkinson said that Mr. Allen was to do the talking on the subject. Mr. Allen said he had no paper but would talk about it as it looked to hitmm:

When he appeared near the schoolhouse with his revolver, one of the little girls asked him what he was going to do. He told her, and she begged him not to shoot the animal. "But I must." he said, "for he hasn't any license." "We'll get him a license if you won't shoot him." said the lit- tle girl, and so the policeman granted a few days' respite. The little girl interested eight or ten of her friends. arranged for a "show," consisting of speeches, recitations and music, to be given by themselves. and persuaded their teacher to announce it, with its charitable ohject.
