Glover talent raises money for library
the Chronicle
by Nathalie Gagnon-Joseph
GLOVER — Over 70 people made it to
Glover’s talent show and pie auction Saturday to
benefit the Glover Public Library.
“We set up 70 chairs and wound up having
to set up more.” Toni Eubanks, the library
director, said. “It’s always nice when that
happens.”
The 11-act set featured performances
ranging from poetry to improvised instrumental
music.
First-time participants Hayley Lewis and
Adam Cook’s performance of various silly songs
caused giggling amongst the children in the
audience.
Karamae Hayman-Jones got on stage to play
and sing one of her own compositions: “Keep on
dreaming — keep on trying. Wipe those tears —
quit that crying. Just know that it gets better.”
People in the audience couldn’t help but tap
their feet along with Jim Daniels’ banjo playing.
After the first intermission, Gabe Harter
decided to play a trick on the audience. He took
some time to organize his music and do a few
warm-up scales before launching into an original
oboe piece he had supposedly been working on
since last September.
After a song filled with trills, scales, and
staccatos, he revealed that the sheet music he
had arranged before was simply a few white
pages.
“I just want to show the power improvised
music has,” he said, and to him there was no
better way to show that than a live display.
The library trustees, the friends of the
library, and Ms. Eubanks organized the show at
the town hall.
The friends of the library were mainly in
charge of finding pie donors.
“It’s never very difficult to find people,” said
Stephan Cantor, a friend of the library. “It’s
only a matter of thinking of who to ask.”
Pies donated from various kitchens were
lined up on either side of the town hall. Each
one had its own bidding card next to it for the
Emcee Randy Williams (back) looks on as Ira Karp drums away and his grandmother Elka Schumann (left),

talent show last Saturday.

silent pie auction. Justin Lander kicked off a
live auction during the second intermission.
The auction started tentatively, but after
some encouragement from Mr. Lander, people
laughed and joined in.
Pies were on display on either side of the town hall for the pie auction at the Glover talent show last Saturday.
“Are you here? Do you love children and
books or not?”
A few brave kids bid while discreetly eyeing
their parents for permission. A key lime pie
went for $21, eight small meat pies went for $26,
and a big blueberry pie went for $35.50.
The town covers $15,000 of the library’s
$25,000 yearly budget, so fund-raising activities
like the talent show are organized to raise the
remaining $10,000, said Ms. Eubanks. She
expected this talent show and pie auction to
raise about $600.
The town also contributes the location and
utilities to the library so the entire budget goes
towards programming like daycare and school
visits, the summer reading program, summer
outdoor movies, the book group for adults, and a
downloadable book service that costs $300 per
year, Ms. Eubanks said.
Other fund-raising activities include the
summer talent show, letters of appeal sent out
in December, a book sale, and the adopt-a-book
program.
Around 8:30 p.m., bedtime came for most
young families and their children, and the town
hall emptied a bit.
Sophia Cannizzaro recited a poem about
being in love with a poet, then Howie Cantor
came up to sing “She’s got no clothes on.”
“Despite the title, I guarantee you I have
vetted it through my own moral filter,” he said.

Listen for that first sign of spring
the Chronicle, March 18, 2015
Ruminations
by Tena Starr
The first sign of spring for me
arrives courtesy of a neighbor. My
bedroom is on the south side of the
house, and I keep a window open
slightly even in the worst of
weather, to the dismay of Steve. He
finds it mildly ridiculous that I
insist on sleeping with an open
window in January.
But in March?
In March, through that slightly
open window, I can hear the low
hum of a vacuum pump down the
road, and I know that sugaring has
started. It’s a welcome sound that
means spring isn’t far off. It could
mean spring is here, depending on
your definition of spring.
For me, spring is here when the
peep frogs sing. But it’s not long
away when I hear those pumps
pulling sap from the maples.
There’s a sugarhouse across the
road that has been unused for some
years. When it was owned by a
different family it went into high
gear about this time. At boiling
time, the whole family was there.
Small children ran around playing.
Women sat in lawn chairs in the
spring sun, in the snow, and played
loud music on boom boxes, had a
beer or two and chatted.
I loved it. I was good with
listening to Madonna at midnight.
Winter is such a white, silent season
that the boisterousness over there
was refreshing. I could faintly smell
maple, or thought I could.
Weather, and sugaring, go on,
and both, actually, are increasingly
serious business. Making syrup was
always work, just not the same kind
of commercial venture that it is
today. Once, for many, it was some
extra money, not a livelihood. You
boiled, friends and family stopped
by and had a beer, or a hot dog
cooked in sap.
That’s not the way of it so much
anymore, but it remains that
sugaring is the start of spring, a
farewell to the lock of hard winter.
But maybe not this year.
Being entwined with a
meteorologist can lead to too much
information.
After an early morning on my
computer, Steve cheerfully informed
me that we’re likely in for a long,
slow spring. He said, eh, we’ll get
three, four inches of snow, and it
will melt, and then we’ll get three,
four more, and then it will melt, and
Sugaring the old-fashioned way.
maybe a bit more, but it’s going to
be a while.
He’s well aware this is nothing I
want to hear. I want to open all the
doors and windows, go barefooted,
haul my computer out to the porch
to work, and see a color that isn’t
white. I want to go to anywhere
south of the Mason Dixon Line until
that happens.
He and I share a fascination
with thunderstorms, wind, and
floods, but we are not on the same
page when it comes to cold. We
were driving home from Boston in
late February, and he was uneasy.
If we get through this one day
without the temperature going
above freezing, February will have
set a record, he said.

I didn’t have anything to say to
that. Rooting for cold?
So tough luck for me — no
chance of hearing peepers on March
31 this year. (That’s the earliest
they’ve ever been out in the near 30
years that I’ve lived here.) But it
sounds like good news for
sugarmakers. A long, slow spring
generally means it will be an
extended sugaring season.
My family farmed but didn’t
sugar, so I came late in life to
maple. Oh, we seemed to have
maple syrup. At one time I must
have had Aunt Jemima somewhere
because I distinctly remember the
chemical taste, but we mostly had
the real thing. We just didn’t make
it ourselves.
But for years now, my son and I
have made our own supply. He puts
up a few buckets, and we boil sap on
the wood stove, finishing it off on
the gas range. The syrup is always
dark, but it tastes good. I’m not
sure that, given the amount of
propane that goes into this
endeavor, we’re saving money.
That’s not the point, though. It
simply strikes me that it’s a good
idea to know how to do it, and to do
it yourself if you can.
We are not efficient, or
professional. Sometimes it rains
and the wind blows, and the covers
blow off our buckets, adding
rainwater to thin sap. Sometimes
we have too much sap for the
containers we have to boil it in, and
we have to leave some outside. But
we generally make enough syrup
out of it to get us from season to
season.
We don’t use a lot of syrup,
actually. Mostly it goes into salad
dressing and marinade for venison.
But I do make maple granola
sometimes, and this is a favorite
recipe.
Maple granola
4 cups rolled oats
1 cup shredded coconut
1 cup sunflower seeds
1 cup pumpkin seeds
1 cup slivered almonds
1 cup pecans, roughly chopped
1 cup syrup
1 cup dried cranberries
1/2 cup olive oil
Preheat oven to 325°. Combine
the dry ingredients in a big bowl,
pour the syrup and olive oil into it,
and mix thoroughly. Add a
generous pinch of salt and bake,
stirring every 15 to 20 minutes until
it’s golden brown. It takes about an
hour.

A farewell to Bushwhacker
Yours from the Perimeter
by Paul Lefebvre
I was on the camp roof pushing off snow with
a scoop when the impact of Bushwhacker’s death
finally caught up with me. I dumped another
load of snow over the edge and let the memory
settle in. Years ago he had brought the scoop
with us into camp to do the roof, and over the
strenuous objections of his wife, Kathy, left it
there.
I took a break and looked the woods over from
the heights of the roof: All white and green
except for a few withered brown leaves. It wasn’t
the first time someone’s death came so swiftly to
mind, a few weeks after the fact.
When Count died an empty pack of Camels in
the back of the truck released a memory of the
day we drove a few miles up a snowmobile trail
before realizing our mistake. And a few weeks
after Little Wolf died I found a spent .44 cartridge
off the trail to the outhouse where he frequently
used to shoot.
Until people I knew started dying, I had no
idea how off-handedly life would remind me of
their absence. Neither Kathy nor I knew when
Bushwhacker had died; it was either the last day
in February or the first day in March.
She had awaked to find him dead in his chair
and, by the time I arrived, she and another
friend, Bruce, were making the final
arrangement.
“I want you to take his beer with you, Paul,”
she said, as I was getting ready to leave. “I don’t
want it in here any more.”
Like most of us Bushwhacker had his faults,
and some would say more than his fair share. In
word and deed, he could take irony to a malicious
level, and he was a difficult man to see straight
on. Often he wore a handgun in a shoulder
holster and took perverse delight making people
feel uptight. He lost old friends quicker than he
made new ones.
“You still hang out with him?” people used to
say during the latter years of his life. “Why?”
“Because I can,” I’d say, without offering any
more.
Long after Rocky — my companion until her
death — refused to have anything to do with him,
I still included him in the rounds I made through
town on a Saturday morning drive to pick up my
mail. Friendships, like old habits, can be difficult
to explain. I had simply known him too long to
let go.
“Fever,” he’d say, sitting at the table with a
glass of beer in front of him. “Where you playing
today?”
He and I first met because we were in love
with the same high school girl. Since I was seven
years older than him, the advantage was in my
favor. When he married his first wife and lived
in Massachusetts, they would visit Annie and me
in Newark whenever they were in the area.
Neither one of our marriages survived, and
years went by before Bush again came into my
company. By that time, he was living once more
in IP and had earned a reputation in the building
trades of being “a man’s man” — someone who
could build, wire, and plumb.
That was the man I knew when I hired Bush
and two pals from town to transform a gutted,
cold-water, kerosene-lit farmhouse into a home in
the woods for Rocky and me. Bush did all the
plumbing and wiring, and most of the finish
work. Later he built us cabinets and a wood box
on wheels, using leftover pieces of hardwood
flooring.
I don’t know at what point he became a
presence in my life. He started coming to camp
off and on — hardly ever spending the night.
Some winters when Rocky and I spent a month
traveling through the South, Bush would stay at
the house and keep the fires.
Once when we returned home late and
unexpected, we caught him sleeping on the couch.
Bending over to wake him, I saw his hand
disappear under the pillow.
“It’s okay, Bush,” I said, grabbing his hand.
“It’s us.”
He shook the sleep out of his eyes. “It’s a
good thing,” he said, pulling a handgun out from
under the pillow.
No one ever knew what to expect from him,
and when people asked how he got the name,
Bushwhacker, he would unfailingly reply: “Ask
Fever, he knows.”
There was no easy answer. When someone
did ask, I had a pat answer. “Hang around him
awhile and you’ll see.”
As a friend, he could be embarrassingly
generous and loyal. Once when I stuck something
in my eye at camp while wrestling on the ground
with the Indian, Bush intervened with threats far
out of proportions to what we had been doing.
“If you hurt him, I’ll kill you,” I heard him say
as I washed out my eye over the sink.
With Bushwhacker you never knew. He often
struck me as a man who had lost the sense of who
he was by playing one prank, one goof too many.
In hindsight, our friendship was cemented
Page 3B
when I helped him out of a bind by loaning him a
thousand bucks. We both knew that without the
loan, he would have lost what arguably was his
most prized possession — a custom-built,
stainless steel .45 handgun.
He repaid the loan with help from his father
and by building me a woodshed, worth far more
than what was owed. I offered to pay him but he
repeatedly shook his head. Until the world began
closing in on him, he was not an easy man to help
nor would he even go so far as to take your hand
when he toppled off the trail and landed in the
snow with his snowshoes pointing to the sky.
After a few rejections, I would leave him
floundering in the snow and continue on to the
truck, where I waited with the motor running.
He invariably showed up.
Since Bush introduced me to shoveling off the
camp roof with a scoop, that’s all I use. Without
expecting it, he managed to get one final word
this time around when Rose — who had made her
second trek into camp within a week — asked
how deep the snow was on the roof. She looked
for a stick to toss up to me, but couldn’t find one
in the woodshed. I finally remembered.
“There’s one just to the left of the big window,
leaning up against the bench,” I said.
I had seen it earlier on my way to the roof. A
small, young spruce whose branches had all been
cut save one at the very tip. The remaining
branch had been whittled down to a fine edge on
both sides.
Years ago when he demonstrated its use on
the high grass around camp, I told him we ought
to market it.
“We’ll call it the Bushwhacker stick,” I said.
“It cuts both ways.”
The stick’s scything properties have long since
vanished but it has lain around for years — too
long to burn, too short to cut. I stuck the fat-end
first into the snow and marked the measurement
with my fingers to show Rose.
“About three feet,” she said. “Maybe a little
more.”

first 21 years in Grandby,
Connecticut, on the Allen homestead.
He was the oldest of four children
and the family raised tobacco.
In 1953 the family moved to
Bradford, where he worked for his
father on the Stonecliff Dairy Farm. He married Doris McClintock in
1968 and had a daughter, Heather

Obituaries
Bryce Wilson of Craftsbury died
on March 9, 2015, after living a long
life of quiet dignity.
It is said that one cannot choose
how to die, but one can choose how
to live.
Mr. Wilson was born on August
4, 1934. He was a lifelong educator.
His career in education spanned
almost 40 years. After stops in
Derby and Hardwick, he ultimately
planted his roots in New Jersey,
where he was employed by the
Waldwick Board of Education for 34
years. As a guidance counselor,
teacher and coach, he touched the
lives of countless children. His
calming manner will be remembered
by all who came in contact with
him. His subtle wit and wry sense
of humor were his hallmarks.
In 1959, he and his wife,
Audrey, moved to New Jersey
settling in the picturesque Cupsaw
Lake section of Ringwood. They
raised four children, and upon
retirement the couple returned to
the family farm in Craftsbury and
Bryce Wilson
opened the Whetstone Brook B&B.
Mr. Wilson’s wife could often be
found in her kitchen telling the
guests about her cherished AGA
stove. Mr. Wilson would regale the
guests with tales of his nine
grandchildren, or the town history
of Craftsbury, or pretty much
anything else. He could converse
with people from all walks of life.
Before his illness, he was an
avid golfer. He played two or three
times a week…and never got better
at it. He had a love-hate
relationship with the game. Several
years ago, his clubs were, shall we
say, mercifully liberated from the
bed of his truck in the wee hours of
the morning. He was quoted as
saying, “I hope those clubs cause
whoever took them as much trouble
as they caused me!” Anyone who
has ever played with him knows
that would be pretty tough to do.
He is survived by his wife of
nearly 57 years, Audrey; his
daughter Lisa Sedore and her
husband, Tom, of Craftsbury; his
John G. Hunter
John G. Hunter, 74, of Holland
died on March 12, 2015, in Newport.
He was born on March 26, 1940,
in Melrose, Massachusetts, to
Graydon and Edith (Lomas) Hunter.
He was veteran with the u.S.
Marines. He was owner of the
former Gantries Bar in Newport and
he was a self-employed tile layer for
many years.
He enjoyed playing checkers,
sailing, and riding motorcycles.
He is survived by his son Daniel
Webster and his wife, Megan, of
Coventry; two grandchildren: Noah
and Addie Webster; his brother
David Hunter and his wife, Linda,
of Newport Center; and by his
caregivers: David and Cathy
Godfrey of Holland, where he lived
for five years.
A graveside service will be held
in the spring with full military
honors at the West Village
Cemetery in West Charleston.
Should friends desire,
contributions in his memory may be
made to the American Heart

Just A Memory Away
I’m no longer by your side,
but there’s no need to weep;
I’ve left sweet recollections
I’m hoping you will keep.
Eternal joy and memories
stay in our hearts forever,
Strengthening our special bond
that parting cannot sever.
So now it’s time to journey on –
just let your faith be strong,
For I am in a better place...
I’m home where I belong.
But, still if times of loneliness
bring sorrow and dismay,
Don’t despair, for I am there...
just a memory away.
Sadly missed by your loving family

“There are so many talented

what people do.”
Her son Nuri Maher may do a
few magic tricks in the next show.
“I was going to do something
this year but I didn’t prepare
anything,” he said.
Organizers contacted potential
performers directly to ask if they
could participate. The only issues
were last minute additions and
cancellations.
“It comes with the territory,”
Ms. Eubanks said.
Besides the talented line-up and
the numerous pies, quilts from the
historical society’s personal
collection were on display.
The society sent over the quilts
to kick off celebrations for their

Meals on Wheels drivers sought
The Area Agency on Aging for
Northeastern Vermont seeks good
drivers with clean records to deliver
its hugely popular Meals on Wheels.
The most critical need is in northern
Orleans County, southeastern Essex
County, and southern Caledonia
County. Each route is different and
varies with the number of seniors
who depend on these healthy menus
so they can continue to live in the
comfort of their homes.
“We’re asking you to try it once
by going out with an established
driver,” said Jerri Ryan, volunteer
engagement coordinator. “The
reward of connecting with grateful
individuals is immeasurable.”
This extensive roster of
transporters throughout the
Northeast Kingdom’s 2,027 square
miles is a vital safety net that
enables the region’s elders to stay in
familiar surroundings and at a cost
considerably less than if they were
to go live prematurely in a care
facility, she explained.
The agency also seeks drivers
for Pets for Life, a program that
delivers donated food for cats and
dogs to Meals on Wheels diners with
companion animals.
The Agency also needs to expand
its substitutes list in order to
provide regular drivers with time off.
“Volunteers who need a flexible
schedule find route substitution
ideal,” Ms. Ryan said. “Some do it
on their days off from working their
regular jobs. Others do it when
their kids are out of school, and may
bring them along to help in the
deliveries.”
Each driver receives mileage
reimbursement. The typical
delivery from a senior meal site,
where the nutritious repasts are
prepared, lasts about 90 minutes,
taking drivers to 15 different homes.
“Try it,” Ms. Ryan added. “You
just might like it.”
Jerri Ryan can be reached at 1800-642-5119. — from the Area
Agency on Aging.

Crankies in West Glover March 20
The Museum of Everyday Life in
Glover presents “Banners and Cranks
NEK,” an evening of cantastoria and
cranky performances, at Parker Pie
in West Glover on Friday, March 20
at 7:30 p.m. Witness an old art form
re-imagined as performers from
across the country offer up
contemporary cantastoria and cranky
performances in Vermont.
Cantastoria is the Italian word
for an ancient performance form,
which involves pictures, live music,
and sung narration. Crankies are
pictures on a scroll moved by means
of a hand-cranked mechanism. This
is a living and breathing folk
performance practice that has found
its own particular place alongside
the technology and media of the
twenty-first century.
The evening features Anna
Roberts-Gevalt and Elizabeth
Laprelle, renowned folk musicians
dedicated to the mountain music
tradition, bringing a captivating mix
of ballads and foot-stomping dance
tunes illustrated by hand-sewn
crankies and painted banners, all
the way from Virginia. Local
performers Adam Cook, Modern
Times Theater, Clare Dolan, and
Meredith Holch round out the
evening with cantastoria and cranky
stories of mayhem, crime, heroism,
inspiration, and mischief. Some
special surprise guests will also join
the performance.
The cost is $15 at the door, but
cheaper for anyone who is broke —
no one will be turned away.
Friday’s performance follows one
on Thursday night, March 19, at
The Lamp Shop in Burlington.
For more information, see
museumofeverydaylife.org or call
Clare Dolan at (802) 626-4409. —
from the Museum of Everyday Life.

Gardner Park restoration fund reaches $10,000
The Gardner Park Restoration (GPR) group
has been busy fund-raising as part of a continued
effort toward putting in a brand-new custom
playground at the park. GPR committee
members recently reached a total amount raised
of $10,000 with a $2,000 deposit at the March
committee meeting. Recent GPR fund-raisers
have included a wrestling show, a craft fair with
a quarter auction, and Bingo.
The 2015 Ice Out is currently underway.
Guess when the ice will go out. The closest guess
to the actual date and time wins 50 percent of the
pot. All proceeds benefit the Gardner Park
Restoration Project. This year, it’s “Olif on the Ice” and he’s
waiting on the Gardner Park bay for that fateful
moment when the ice gives way and he is
returned to his liquid state beneath the gentle
ripple of Memphremagog. Don’t miss your chance
to win big bucks and support a great cause by
guessing when the ice will go out. For tickets, call 334-6345, or visit the
Newport Municipal Building, Hoagie’s at
Waterfront Plaza, or Little G’s Deli on Main
Street. The cost is $3 per ticket, $5 for two
tickets, or $10 for five tickets. The deadline to
submit entries is 4:30 p.m. on Friday, March 20.
If anyone has any questions or would like
more information on upcoming events, please feel
free to e-mail [email protected],
or join the Gardner Park Restoration group on
Facebook. The committee is always looking for
new, dedicated volunteers or committee members.
If interested, please contact them at the above
e-mail address. — submitted by Jennifer Smith.
