Fire chief rescues boy from river rapids
This Week LOCAL
By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com
CHESTER Ñ Horicon Fire Chief Jim Hayes rescued a young teenage boy submerged up to his chest in the rapids of the Schroon River July 3, authorities said. Hayes said this week he happened to be driving his fire chiefÕ s vehicle north up Schroon River Road shortly before 3 p.m. Thursday when he saw a tube between the river and the road, and he slowed down because it looked suspicious. Looking toward the river, he saw a teenager beside the river, waving and yelling for help. The boy, 15, was standing near his 14-year-old friend submerged in the fast-running river. Hayes called Warren County emergency dispatcher for backup help on his fire radio, then grabbed his life jacket, emergency rescue rope and Ò throw bag,Ó jumped out of his truck, and ran to the river, he recalled after the incident. Hayes serves on HoriconÕ s dive rescue team, and routinely carries the equipment in his pickup truck. Hayes then tied the rope onto a tree and lowered himself into the rushing water to CONTINUED ON PAGE 8

Area leaders form task force, vow to solve rail freight hangups By Thom Randall
thom@denpubs.com QUEENSBURY Ñ Corporate bureaucracy now stalling movement of railroad freight between Warren, Washington and Saratoga counties and the Port of Albany has prompted area officials to form a tri-county task force to expedite a solution. Warren County leaders said this week they and task force members will likely be asking Gov. Andrew Cuomo to influence officials of several railroads that hold right-of-way privileges on various stretches of track between Warren County and the Port of Albany to cooperate and reach agreements so goods and materials produced in the three counties can move freely to national markets. Warren County Economic Development Corp. President Ed Bartholomew talked of the delays that the Saratoga-North Creek Railway was experiencing in securing access to the port so it can move many thousands of tons of granite gravel from Tahawus downstate to potential customers. The Ò high frictionÓ aggregate mined in Tahawus has been eyed for use in premium asphalt and concrete products produced in New Jersey and southern New York State. Bartholomew also said that Finch Pruyn and Irving Tissue were interested in delivering shipments of their paper products via rail, but were stymied by the lack of freight agreements. He said that moving freight to the Port of Albany required cooperation from Canadian Pacific and CSX — who lease the railroad tracks
A train operated by the Saratoga-North Creek Railway pulls through the rail station at Riparius. The railway is seeking to move freight from Tahawus to the Port of Albany, but freight movement agreements have yet to be struck between SNCRR and other rail firms that have right-of-way on area tracks. Area economic development czar Ed Bartholomew is forming a tri-county task force to enable the movement of freight from enterprises in Warren, Washington and Saratoga counties to their market destinations worldwide.

between the two destinations Ñ as well as from the entity controlling the access spur into the port. Bartholomew said that efficient, inexpensive rail freight service was vital for attracting and retaining industry. Ò Solving these rail freight issues will help new and existing businesses,Ó he told Warren County supervisors attending the county Economic Growth & Development Committee meeting July 3. He noted that two woodproduct manufacturers are seeking to locate in
FUND helps purchase boat washing equipment LAKE GEORGE Ñ The FUND for Lake George is providing a grant of $10,000 to the Lake George Park Commission for training approximately 50 boat inspection technicians. The four-day training commenced Monday, April 28, and includes a comprehensive curriculum covering all aspects of inspection and decontamination of trailered boats. Inspection and decontamination is central to the Park Commis-
northern Warren County, and rail freight availability is critical to the success of their enterprises. Securing cost-efficient rail freight agreements would make local companiesÕ products more price-competitive in the world markets, Bartholomew added. One rail car can hold a volume of material that would require five tractortrailer trucks to transport, he said, noting the financial savings and environmental benefits of rail transportation. Bartholomew said that with an eye on solv-
sionÕ s Aquatic Invasive Species (AIS) Prevention Program set to begin on May 15. Conducting the training program are D and Michael Davis whose combined experience is extensive and has included training of inspectors across the western United States and in Canada. This includes the inspector training at Lake Tahoe that has an AIS prevention program widely hailed for its success in keeping new invasives from entering the lake. Ò D Davis is the person who we rely on for what is known as level 2 training (training the trainers) and she certainly would be the best to have aboard,Ó said Ted Thayer, Implementation Coordinator for the Lake Tahoe Environmental Improvement Program,
ing obstacles to efficient transportation of materials and products, he was seeking grant funding for a study of rail freight issues and potential solutions. Besides the matter of corporate cooperation, another obstacle was the lack of available rail cars, and the need to upgrade railroad tracks for the considerable weight of freight, Bartholomew continued. Saratoga-North Creek Railway Operations Manager Justin Gonyo said July 8 that his company was currently negotiating contracts with Canadian Pacific and CSX, and the three firms have experienced good working relations. He added that his company was now involved in a project to upgrade tracks between Tahawus and Corinth. Warren County Board of Supervisors Chairman Kevin Geraghty of Warrensburg said that establishing rail freight access was vital to the regionÕ s economic sustainability and future prosperity. A former plant manager for International Paper in Corinth Ñ with experience in arranging transportation of bulk products, Geraghty was asked to join the task force now in formation. Geraghty predicted that Bartholomew would be effective in making headway in freight movement. Bartholomew serves on the stateÕ s Capital Region Economic Development Council and has experience as a consultant to the state senate and to various legislators. If thereÕ s anyone who can get these problems solved itÕ s Ed,Ó Geraghty said. Ò We need to do everything we can to get freight moving by rail to Albany.Ó
Ò We are proud to be supporting this critical component of the AIS Prevention Program on Lake George,Ó said FUND Executive Director Eric Siy. Ò Effective training of inspectors will translate into effective protection from new invasives that so seriously threaten our waters,Ó Siy said. Ò As weÕ ve learned from those invasive species that have gotten in to Lake GeorgeÑ at great financial and ecological cost—the only real protection from invasives is prevention.Ó Ò The invasive species prevention effort has been a state and local partnership from the beginning,Ó LGPC Executive Director Dave Wick said. Ò The Commission thanks The Fund for providing the additional financial resources enabling a top notch training program for our inspectors.Ó

The North Creek Mosaic Project gets under way for the season NORTH CREEK Ñ The North Creek Mosaic Project has received much support for this coming summer, and will be offering chances for residents and visitors to Ò make their markÓ on the second panel of the mural. Summer camps for all ages will be offered each afternoon, noon to 3:30 p.m., the weeks of July 21-25, and Aug. 18-22, adults, teens and children are welcome to come create their own projects, and add elements theyÕ ve created to the mural, as well. Last summer, a Ò multi-ageÓ program spontanneously happened during one camp session, and it was a big success. Mosaics is a new medium to discover for most people, so it’s a natural fit for adults and children learning side-by-side. ThereÕ s a discounted fee for adults and children who sign up together. Grandparents, aunts, uncles, parents and friends can come with children of any age. Fees are $55 for adults/teens, $45 for children 8-12 years old, and $65 for any adult/child Ò teamÓ who signs up together! Some scholarships are available. Contact Kate at 681-9921, katehartleyvt@gmail.com to register. A generous grant from the Glenn and Carol Pearsall Adirondack Foundation provides partial funding for this program. A donation of all the mortar weÕ ll need for
the coming summer has just been received, from the Ardex company, and grants from the Sandy Hill Foundation, and the Johnsburg Occupancy Tax Committee will also support this yearÕ s work. We expect to start in the coming week. All spring, the projectÕ s lead artist, Kate Hartley, worked with Maria Gloda and second grade students at Johnsburg Central School, and Patrick Sullivan, John Burns and teens at Warrensburg High School to create new elements to become part of the muralÕ s second panel. They were awarded a grant from Adirondack Arts in Education, administered through LARAC. High schoolers recycled green bottle glass (lots from BarVino), by Ò slumpingÓ it in the kiln to make mosaic tilesÉ and forming the pieces into the new trees that have already been installed by the students last month. Science students at WHS recycled donated tile into paddle shapes for the muralÕ s frame. Second grade students at JCS created mosaic clouds for the sky, with each student creating a tile Ò swirlÓ to add to the puffy cloud. Look for them installing this week, if the weather cooperates. Community members and visitors alike are invited to join in, whenever you see folks working Ò at the wall.Ó Kate can show you how, and itÕ s a fun way to spend an hour or two on a beautiful Adirondack summer day.

LAKE GEORGE Ñ Sustainability was the topic of conversation in May at the fourth annual low impact development conference. The conference gave participants an opportunity to learn about the launch of the Lake George WaterkeeperÕ s new initiative for a Low Impact Development Manual and Certification System. The Waterkeeper cited the new certification as integral to the The FUND for Lake GeorgeÕ s Legacy Strategy to protect Lake George for the next generation. David Crockett, a fourth generation nephew of the original Ò King of the Wild Frontier,Ó Davy Crockett, and retired director of the Chatanooga T.N. Office of sustainability, made known his admiration of the horizon and venue in which he was speaking. Ò This place is something else,Ó said Crockett. Ò You have Saratoga, the Erie Canal, Lake George and birch trees. Now where IÕ m from, we donÕ t have birch trees. This place; the names; the history; itÕ s incredible.Ó During Crockett’s time as director of the Office of Sustainability, he was responsible for the construction and replacement of over 27,000 streetlights using radio LED and induction lighting. Crockett, an Army veteran and expert on economic development, is currently an associate of the Citistates Group where he has consulted with officials in nearly every state and region. Crockett notably served on many national and international advisory boards including the PresidentÕ s Council on Sustainable Development, The Climate Institute, National

Ò We donÕ t do something without the understanding of what it can do to something else,Ó Crockett said as his rallying cry perspective on sustainability. Ò Here there are grassroots concepts and ideas, a passion for your people and communities. Just to get up here and get a crack at the fishing is enough for me.”

Man drowns in Lake George after fishing boat capsizes By Mauranda Stahl-Sorensen mauranda@denpubs.com
HAGUE Ñ Late afternoon Friday July 4, divers from area law enforcement agencies recovered the body of William A. Scott, 59, missing since his boat capsized three days earlier in Lake George. Scott, a resident of Westerlo, NY, was located 72 feet under the surface of the lake, close to where the boat in which he was fishing had taken on water and overturned north of Hague Beach on the morning of July 1. Divers of the Warren County and Saratoga County sheriffsÕ departments located ScottÕ s body using an unmanned aquatic vehicle and side-scan sonar. ScottÕ s body was transported by boat to Dockside Landing Marina in Hague where fishing partners and friends George Boss and Thomas Greene watched from a small pier overlooking the same waters they had unexpectedly plunged into four days prior. Boss, 75, is from West Kingston, R.I. and Greene, 70, is from Derby, Conn. Boss, Greene and Scott had been trolling the waters of Lake George July 1 when their lines were snagged on a submerged object or an underwater outcropping. As a result, their 17-foot fishing craft lurched — propelling its bow in the air — and the craft took on water. Scott jumped into the lake after grabbing a personal flotation device. Authorities said he may not have had time to put it on properly. Greene and Boss held onto the boat, and strong wind caused Scott to become separated from the craft. Greene and Boss kept in voice contact with Scott for about 10 minutes, police said. Greene and Boss were pulled from the water not long after the incident, but Scott had disappeared. The search was initially called off for July 4, but members of the rescue teams decided to continue their search on the holiday

despite sporadic rain and stiff wind that continued into Friday, they said.
Family holds dawn-to-dusk shoreline vigil
The recovery occurred after many hours spent by ScottÕ s wife Colleen and other family members watching and waiting on the shores of Lake George at the Hague town park. They had held a dawn-to-dusk vigil at the town beach, talking with divers each time they came ashore. Boss and Greene were with them much of the time. Wednesday, Colleen Scott talked about her husband, his character, and his fishing trips. “George and Bill have been fishing for eight or nine years,” Scott said. Ò Once every year they come up to the North Point (Hague). I just keep thinking Ô Bill, you loved it so much, now Plattsburgh, or by calling 1-800-243-0061. Anyone interested in buying at the auction is urged to attend the BidderÕ s Seminar being held at the West Side Ballroom, located at 253 New York Road in Plattsburgh on Monday, July 21. Beginning with early bidder registration at 6pm and followed by the general information seminar at 7pm, this informative seminar is particularly useful for those attending the tax foreclosure auction for the first time. An overview of the auction’s Ô Terms and ConditionsÕ will be discussed and useful tips will be provided to help bidders become more informed buyers. The seminar is a great opportunity to learn, and to ask questions about the entire auction process. Several improved properties will be made available for pre-view, and will be shown on Tuesday, July 22. A showing schedule is posted to www.NYSAuctions.com. Auction-day registration will begin at the auction site

Ò About four years ago he bought a Ô 67 Chevy Nova,Ó Colleen said. “It was Canary Yellow. That first year we had it, we went up to the car show at Howe Caverns and Bill won a prize in the top 25 Ñ Boy, if you could have seen that smile!Ó In 2013, William Scott became a grandfather for the first time when his grandson Hunter was born. Ò Hunter just loves him Ñ he runs around all the time yelling Ô Pop, Pop, Pop,Ó Colleen Scott said. Ò HeÕ s here now,Ó she said, pointing to the blonde-haired boy napping in a stroller under the shade of a park tree. Scott spoke of the friendship between Boss and her husband Ñ and how on Saturday the two men had caught a lake trout and broiled it for dinner the night before the boat capsized. Ò At the campground we stay at seasonally, the men have started taking fishing hooks and wearing them on their hats,” Colleen Scott said. Ò Bill found a big one and he painted it gold; he put it in a DickÕ s Sporting Goods box and left it around for George Ñ Bill gave him that hook for being the captain of the boat.Ó Colleen Scott gazed over the waters of Lake George. Ò This morning, George gave it to my son.Ó Following the recovery of ScottÕ s body on Friday, members of the Scott, Greene and Boss families embraced each other, as well as members of the Hague Volunteer Fire Co. and Hague Emergency Medical Services, who attended to their duties loading ScottÕ s body into an ambulance. A subsequent autopsy indicated that ScottÕ s death was due to drowning. promptly at 9 a.m. Prospective purchasers must register to participate and provide a photo ID (valid driverÕ s license or passport) and social security or EIN number before obtaining a bidding number.

He added that five other Warren County schools scored in the top half Ð Queensbury High, Bolton Central, Glens Falls High, Lake George Central and Hadley-Luzerne High. ÒT his is a great indication of what our region can offer,Ó he said, noting that a regional ranking of schools using a wide range of criteria had listed Bolton Central, Johnsburg, Lake George, Warrensburg, Johnsburg and Glens Falls schools as high performers.

Hospice receives local gifts QUEENSBURY Ñ Eric and Lois Melito, owners of One on 1 Design, have created a beautiful “wildflowers,” design t-shirt, the proceeds of which will benefit High Peaks Hospice & Palliative Care, Inc. EricÕ s mother was the recipient of the compassionate care provided by HPH&PC and the Melito family wanted to show their appreciation by creating this one-of-a-kind design and donate the proceeds to the organization. Ò The Melitos are such genuinely kind people,Ó said Sunday Conine, Development Coordinator with HPH&PC. Ò From our very first meeting, it was apparent that a strong bond had been forged with the nurses. Hugs are a requirement.Ó The shirt design was created to highlight the love for EricÕ s
yuna, Bethlehem, Shaker High, Guilderland, Shenendehowa, Queensbury and Saratoga Springs. Warrensburg Superintendent of Schools John Goralski said that the achievement of the top ranking was due to an ongoing team effort, and a matter of high expectations. ÒW arrensburg students and their parents really understand the value of both solid high school instruction as well as higher education,Ó he said. ÒO ur students work hard to get into good schools, knowing it opens more doors for their futures.Ó Laura Danna, president of the Warrensburg Central School District Board of Education, credited the school district employees for the studentsÕ top achievement, noting that each student received personal attention. “This is great – it’s a reflection of the dedicated work of faculty, administrators and staff over quite a number of years,Ó she said, noting that academic excellence takes time to nurture. ÒI n our small-school environment, students are less likely to slip through the cracks. Teachers and administrators know each student, and respond to their individual needs.Ó WCS Principal Doug Duell said that school staff, students, their parents, the bus drivers, school board members and local citizens deserved credit as well as WCS administrators and faculty.

ing that if a child receives positive encouragement from everyone from the bus driver, staff and teachers to parents and local citizens, theyÕ ll pursue academic goals with enthusiasm. Duell noted that many of the students spend a lot of time studying outside of school hours. ÒW e provide them with the opportunity and the access, and they take it from there,Ó he said, noting that 17 of the 63 members of the Class of 2014 were National Honor Society members. The Class of 2012, hailed as the top academically in recent history, might also have achieved similar top S.A.T. score rankings, Duell said, but the data wasnÕ t made available to the media in past years. One factor in the Class of 2014Õ s high ranking is likely to be the S.A.T. preparation course arranged by school counselor Sarah Landers, Duell said. The WCS students took the course at night under the instruction of two retired teachers. Education experts, however, downplay test preparation, saying that many years of highquality instruction and home environment make the difference in test scores. This S.A.T. ranking isn’t the first accolade won by Warrensburg High School. In recent years, it was awarded a bronze medal twice and a silver medal two years ago as a top performing high school in the nation by U.S. News & World Report. Also, Warrensburg Central has been ranked intermittently by the Albany Business Review as one of the top schools in the Capital Region, based on a wide range of criteria, not just test

Save your community: Volunteer
A
lack of volunteers threatens the future of many annual summer events in the North Country. For events happening from late May to early September, a lack of volunteers can turn a day of fun into a faded memory. Here are some examples around the North Country. First: The Labor Day Celebration in Au Sable Forks. Before, the event lasted for two days. On the first day, the grounds would be crowded with both guests and volunteers. An array of games and food booths were available along with a huge bingo game in the gym, a chicken barbecue, pie roulette, dunking booth and a bounce house. On the second day, the same events would happen, along with a parade in the morning. Today, the gathering lasts for just a day, and after the closing of Holy Name School and St. Matthews Church, the town struggles to keep its tradition going. Now, the parade runs on the first day. All of the food and game booths remain, but many of the dedicated volunteers that ran them are no longer there. People who had been running the same booths for years have either died or have become too old to help. The few people who remain struggle to recruit new volunteers. Second: Ò Champ DayÓ in Port Henry and Moriah. Before, it was a day to recognize the folklore surrounding the alleged Lake Champlain creature Champ, and pay tribute to the more than 300 documented sightings of the creature. Ò Champ DayÓ took place on the first Sunday of August. The event included sidewalk sales, street vendors, entertainment, childrenÕ s games and pony rides, among other things. Today, “Champ Day” has been officially discontinued after 31 years. The event ended for multiple reasons, including the recession and the Champlain Bridge closure for two years. Because of this, the town decided to put Ò Champ DayÓ on hold until the economy righted itself. The economy has been recovering, but Ò Champ DayÓ has yet to be reinstated, mainly because of a lack of volunteers. Third: The Rouses Point Fourth of July Celebration. Before, the event lasted for a week and was known to be one of the biggest parties in the country. The festive week, founded by
July 12, 2014
George Ducharme 54 years ago, once included a carnival and huge parade that contained 15 to 20 bands and brought in people from all around the country and Canada to see and participate in the fun it had to offer. Today, the week-long event has been condensed to three days. The carnival no longer comes to town because itÕ s too expensive. Many of the games and food booths remain, but the annual get-together struggles to stay alive because of a lack of volunteers. A committee works diligently to keep the celebration intact, but those offering their services to help have become fewer and fewer. Fourth: Rulfs OrchardÕ s Strawberry Festival. Before, the Strawberry Festival was a one day celebration that celebrated strawberries becoming ripe for the picking. The festival includes strawberry picking, a strawberry shortcake eating competition, a strawberry rhubarb pie baking competition, a number of different vendors, games and fun strawberry themed food for both children and adults. Today, the Strawberry Festival remains successful after three years. Most of the events are the same. ThereÕ s been a few changes in terms of vendors, but, besides that, the orchard keeps the tradition they started three years ago. How is Rulfs able to continue and even grow its popular festival? The answer is quite simple Ñ they donÕ t rely on volunteers, they pay the individuals who help make the event happen. There is nothing wrong with that, but these people are not volunteers. And, the simple fact of the matter is that many events around the North Country cannot afford to take on a paid staff. What it really boils down to is a matter of civic pride and civic duty. These events are not only a source of summertime enjoyment, they also are economic engines that fill our main streets with people looking to spend money. People that oftentimes fall in love with the area and return to spend money or purchase homes here. So, there is a much bigger picture here when it comes to volunteerism. It is an integral part of the fabric of our communities. Without it, they may also become just a faded memory Ñ going the way of so many celebrations, festivities and events throughout the region.

Turning Back the Pages By Jean Hadden One Hundred Years Ago – July, 1914 Boy survives accident, dies from treatment
J. Howard Byrnes, 22, the young telegraph operator of North Creek, who was injured in a motor cycle accident on the state road near that place on June 14, 1914, died Sunday night, June 21, 1914 in Saratoga Hospital, where he was taken on a special train immediately after the accident. His injuries, though very serious, were not necessarily fatal and death was caused by pneumonia resulting from the effects of ether. Had the young man lived, he would have been a cripple. The motorcycle was owned and driven by station agent Mr. Ochs and at the time of the accident Byrnes was riding on the rear seat. Ochs turned out to pass a heavy motor truck loaded with iron ore and he did not clear it. When the crash came Byrnes was thrown under the wheels of the truck which ran over his right leg, splitting the bone from the knee to the hip and his back was injured. Ochs went over the handle bars and sustained severe injuries. The deceased was a son of the late James Byrnes, of Thurman, and he was related to the Camerons and other prominent families of the town. His father died when he was a young boy leaving him with his mother, Mrs. Sarah Byrnes. Gifted with a happy disposition and industrious habits, he was a great comfort and help to his widowed mother. He had been married for four years and is survived by his widow, the former Miss Marjorie Smith of Chestertown. Mrs. Byrnes lived with the happy couple and their home was a heaven of happiness. The funeral was held from the home of ByrnesÕ uncle, William Walsh, in Thurman.
Dark night, no light, much plight
Elmer Dalrymple, of Lake George, while driving through that village about 10 oÕ clock Sunday night, June 21, 1914, carrying no light, was run down by an automobile. His carriage was demolished and the horse broke loose and was captured only after a long chase by the automobile. Mr. Dalrymple was thrown to the grass at the side of the road, but was not injured. The occupants of the car left without giving their names. No action can be brought against them as Dalrymple was at fault for not displaying a light as required by state law. In other news, a large Buick car owned by Glens Falls people, who also refused to make known their names, was struck in the rear at Chestertown by a Troy car. No one was injured and the autos were sent to the garage for repairs.
Jerome Jenkins in the jug
A well known character is occupying familiar quarters in the county jail. Jerome Jenkins, an elderly man whose extremely bibulous habits have made him well known throughout this locality, Monday night, June 22, 1914, hung his hat on the same old peg in the county jail at Lake George, where it has so often hung before. Jerome has for some time made his headquarters in Bolton. Sunday morning, about 3 oÕ clock, while intoxicated, he entered the home of Thomas Lenox, through the window and made his way upstairs to Mr. LenoxÕ s bedroom. He resisted the efforts of the house owner to expel him and could not be ejected until a neighbor was called in to help. Constable Sheridan Finkle was notified and Jenkins was taken into custody and lodged in the county jail to await a hearing.
Hotel dodges bullet
The case of the People of the State of New York, against the Delaware and Hudson Company, owners of the new Fort William Henry Hotel, called for trial at an adjourned term of the Supreme Court at Lake George, Monday, June 22, 1914, Justice C.C. VanKirk presiding, and came to an abrupt close when counsel for the plaintiff accepted a compromise offered by the defendant by which it was agreed that a perpetual right away across the companyÕ s dock at Lake George should be granted. The concession to give to the public a perpetual right to cross the dock was made by the D&H Company through its counsel, Attorney L.E. Carr. The road was closed by permission of the town board of Caldwell and the village board of Lake George in 1909. The plaintiff contended that without right the defendant filled in state land under water at the head of Lake George and sought to compel the defendant to remove the filled in part upon which several structures had been erected. As the only purpose of the plaintiff was to secure right for the public to cross the dock with vehicles, the action will be continued to compel the defendant to remove the filling and buildings thereon and the Attorney General will not oppose the application of the defendant to the State Land Board for a grant of right to use the property now filled in.
New law enforced
The State Department of Health has announced that it will enforce vigorously the new law requiring the registration of births within five days after the visit of the stork. Many physicians have been very lax in this matter but hereafter they must do their duty or pay the penalty prescribed by law.
Horicon summer hotel
E.H. McAuliffe has sold the Brant Lake House, at Horicon, to Caesar A. Rossi for $7,500. Mr. Rossi will take possession July 6, 1914. Mr. McAuliffe built the Brant Lake House fifteen years ago and it was one of the finest properties on the lake. He will give a closing dance and supper Wednesday night, July 1, 1914 and everyone is invited.
Barn burns, cattle safe
E.S. DunlonÕ s barn, in North River, was burned to the ground Sunday night, June 28, 1914. Mr. Dunlon saw the flames in time to save his wagons. The cattle were in the pasture. It is supposed that the building was struck and fired by a severe thunder storm which was raging at the time. The loss is only partially covered by insurance.
Oddity in Thurman
Herbert Rounds, of Thurman, has a lamb two months old that has only three legs, one in front and two behind. It is perfect in every other way and gets about very handily with its short equipment of legs. Herbert Rounds took a load of veal lambs to Johnsburgh and sold them to Nobel Armstrong. In other news, H.C. Ingraham, of Landon Hill, Pottersville, recently found a strawberry in his garden patch which measured seven inches in circumference and two inches in diameter.
House changes hands
D.E. Pasco bought the John Moon property on Hudson Street, Warrensburgh for $955. The place was owned by Mrs. Mary Beswick who has been judged incompetent and sold at auction on a court order to settle her estate. The lot is triangular shaped and is located on the north corner of Hudson and First Streets. The house was occupied for many years by the late John Moon, father of James Moon who now lives a short distance up the street. The sale was not largely attended and there were few bidders. The first offer was $500. (Note – John Moon came to Warrensburgh village from a farm near the Chestertown tollgate (corner of route 9 and 28). He was supervisor of Warrensburgh in 1849. His son, James Moon, in 1876, was appointed Ò keeperÓ of Clinton Prison at Dannemora. James was married to Harriet E. Salisbury and they had three children. He died in 1917.)
News near and far
Farmers in Meadville, Chestertown have completed their haying. Owing to the grasshoppers and dry weather, the crop was very light. Lester Wolroth had a very serious attack of colera morbus brought on by eating green apples. A bustle adds much to the new dances, that is, for the spectators at the new dances. Its gyrations, when its mistress is doing the Tango or the Lightening Streak, is worth watching. A three year old colt owned in Fort Ann, committed suicide recently by batting his head against a rock in an effort to free one of his legs which had become caught in a fissure in a rock in its pasture. A trout weighing seventeen and a half pounds was caught in Kattskill Bay, Lake George by John R. Gordon, of New York. This is the biggest trout caught in Lake George this season. The Empire Shirt CompanyÕ s factory on River Street, Warrensburgh, closed July 1, 1914 for two weeks during which time extensive repairs are being made to the buildings. (Note Ð The Empire Shirt Factory was established in 1879 by Louis Weinman and Louis W. Emerson. Today it is the home of Lizzie Keays Restaurant and several small businesses. Louis Davison and Miss Daisy Langworthy, both of Warrensburgh, were married Friday evening, June 26, 1914 by the Rev. Richard Abbott, at the home of Mrs. Lucy Harris on River Street.) Miss Francis A. Combs, daughter of Mrs. May Combs of Glens Falls, formerly of Warrensburgh, was married to Frank J. Hoag of Westerly, Rhode Island, the son of William Hoag of Glens Falls. The bride wore a suit of Copenhagen blue with a white hat and she carried a bouquet of white carnations. Harry Stockton, of Lewisville, Warrensburgh, has bought a fine blooded bay horse from E.S. Crandall. Orrin Perkins is having a fine croquet and tennis ground prepared near his residence in West Stony Creek. A son was born June 21, 1914 to Mrs. Frank Wall of North River. Mrs. Herbert Rounds, of Thurman, is the mother of a new baby girl. A son was born to Mrs. Lewis Davis of Graphite. Mrs. Ernest Pratt and baby girl, of Warrensburgh, are passing a few weeks at Riverbank with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. George Hill. Mr. Pratt is employed at the Sagamore grounds at Bolton Landing.

Letters to the Editor
Options for safety To the Adirondack Journal: Resource officers a price the county and schools can’t afford! This is total b.s.! The national rifle association will train qualified citizens free of charge to be armed guards. Everyone included will donate their time free of charge. How can any school district say they canÕ t afford it, when it is free! Essex County doesnÕ t think their students are worth $72,000 to protect. You people need some mental health screening. I quote from your article Ò Sheriff CuttingÕ s request comes without a stitch of anecdotal or statistical information from the past satisfying the need for these officers.” Channel 10 News stated, Ò 74 school shootings since Connecticut Sandy Hook.Ó People that is 74 times! The idiot (you wouldnÕ t print what I
really think) we have our fearless leader in Washington doesnÕ t know what to do. Well for a start, repeal the gun free school act. It doesnÕ t work. Repeat after me Ò It doesnÕ t work.Ó If it did there wouldnÕ t be 74 more school shootings. Jr. CuomoÕ s New York State Act. What does it do? Makes it harder on the police and easier on the dirt bag baby killers. Are you going to protect the children or become baby killers by proxy. George Phillips Chestertown
Agrees with publisher To the Adirondack Journal: I fully agree with Dan AlexanderÕ s last two Viewpoint editorials condemning political attack ads. Such ads have significantly lowered both the quality of political debate and our respect for
our elected leaders. While candidates are not supposed to consult or coordinate with the Super-PACS that run these attack ads, there is nothing to prevent a candidate from loudly and publicly protesting the use of these ads - something candidate Stefanik never did. If similar ads start appearing during the general election cycle, I would hope that Ms Stefanik - better late than nevertells any Super-Pac that runs such an ad to please stop dragging down any politician who happens to disagree with their narrow political agenda. I also heartily applaud the offer to publish two editorials written by each candidate. The pledge not to accept any attack ads is particularly commendable, since in doing that Denton Publications is truly Ò putting their money where their mouth is.Ó Let the polite, civil, reasoned debate begin. If nowhere else, at least in this paper. Tony Goodwin Keene

Thurman Bridge repainting project to continue through August By Thom Randall
The Thurman bridge, a two-span truss, carries an average of 2,250 vehicles per day. Viggiani said that the bridge is routinely repainted about every 12 years.
THURMAN Ñ A vintage steel-truss bridge that is the primary pathway for Thurman residents to get to work and access metropolitan areas, is now getting refinished. The work on the Thurman Bridge requires the two-lane traffic on state Rte. 418 over the Hudson River to be restricted to one lane. The traffic over the 438-feetlong bridge is now alternating directions every several minutes, controlled by a temporary traffic signal. The steel bridge, built in 1941, is being blasted with an abrasive substance to remove old paint and rust, followed by repainting work. As Rte. 418 is a state highway, the state Department of Transportation is overseeing the work, performed by five to 10 employees of TDA Construction of White Plains. The project, anticipated to cost the state $1.9 million, is likely to be finished by the end of August, according to D.O.T. spokesman Bryan Viggiani. While the work is under way, the entire bridge is shrouded in a cloth enclosure, with a vacuum system that is designed to contain lead dust from the bridgeÕ s old finish as well as paint overspray, Viggiani said. He added that such containment is the common practice for all D.O.T. bridge painting jobs.

crew and ambulance were busy with a prior call. Firefighters from Chestertown and Horicon arrived on the scene too. The 14-year-old, later identified as Joey Hurd of East Greenbush, told Hayes and others on the scene his tube had popped with an object in the river, he was swept downstream a short distance, and his life jacket and tube became entangled in a downed tree due to the rapids and strong current. He said the life jacket was pulling him under water and he was able to take it off and cling to the tree, authorities said. The current was so strong it ripped his swimsuit off, Warren County Sheriff’s officers said. Gould called the boyÕ s parents after Joey was pulled from the river. The boys and their family members were staying in a cabin on the Schroon River above the Starbuckville Dam, and they reported the boys had experience tubing on the river, authorities said. Joey Hurd was transported to Glens Falls Hospital, as responders thought he may have fractured some ribs when being pinned against the tree. The 15-year-old was Logan Speed, also of East Greenbush, according to reports aired on WNYT Channel
13. LoganÕ s mother, April Speed, told the WNYT reporter she and the boys would forever be thankful that an experienced, well-equipped emergency responder happened to be driving by when help was needed. Monday, the boys and their family members visited the Horicon firehouse and personally thanked Hayes for his rescue. Ò It was nice to meet up with them again,Ó Hayes said Tuesday. Ò It felt good that I was at the right place at the right time and got the boy out of there quickly.Ó Horicon Supervisor Matt Simpson said Tuesday that citizens of Horicon and other rural Adirondack communities are fortunate to have dedicated volunteer emergency responders as neighbors. Ò IÕ m quite impressed with this rescue,Ó Simpson said. Ò WeÕ re fortunate to have Jim and the other volunteers who are well-trained and have the equipment they need to get the job done Ñ These emergency responders are always prepared and there when you need them.Ó

Always Investing In The Health of Our Region Glens Falls Hospital Continues Tradition of Excellence In a time of tremendous change in health care, one thing remains constant: Glens Falls Hospital is investing in the health of our region. Since the start of this year alone, we have added significant new capabilities in the way we treat cancer and perform various types of surgery. In both cases, we are treating people more effectively, with fewer side effects, and getting them home sooner. We’re also caring for people in new and better ways at our 11 Family Health Centers. Our team approach to care is helping people prevent or manage chronic illnesses, so they’re spending more time enjoying life and less time in the hospital.

Precise Technology Helps Fight Cancer
The first of two new linear accelerators has been installed at The C. R. Wood Cancer Center. The next generation of technology delivers a higher dosage of radiation to cancerous tumors more precisely than ever before, improving treatment of tumors that are difficult to reach or treat. For some patients, treatments may be reduced from five to seven weeks to one to three days, while treatment times can go from one half hour to as little as two minutes.

Horicon auxiliary plan bus trip to casino
Warrensburg firefighters stand by a utility pole near Warrensburg Mobil station that was hit at about 5:30 p.m. June 27 by a 2006 Toyota Highlander driven by Gordon A. Carter, 66 of Warrensburg. Police said that alcohol appeared to be a factor in the crash, and the case remains under investigation. The strength of the wires prevented the pole — sheered off in the collision — and its transformers from crashing onto the gas pumps and their canopy, officials said. The gas station was closed while the pole was replaced. The Warrensburg Emergency Squad responded to the scene, as well as members of the Warrensburg Volunteer Fire Co. Although Carter was transported to Glens Falls Hospital, no serious injuries were sustained, authorities said. Photo by Thom Randall
