Manhunt for escaped murderers continues in North Country

This Week AMERICADE

Bikers descend on Lake George

By Pete DeMola pete@denpubs.com

WILLSBORO Ñ Hundreds of law enforcement officials poured into a rural community in the Adirondacks on Tuesday in an effort to root out the pair of killers who used power tools to break out of a maximum security prison on Saturday.

Acting on a lead generated when someone reported a pair of suspicious individuals who fled after being spotted walking down a secluded country road late Monday, authorities transformed the farming community into a surreal landscape in which helicopters buzzed overhead and black-clad correctional officers prowled down backwoods lanes in buses.

“It’s almost like an occupied territory,” said Jay White, a resident who owns land adjacent to where the agents coordinated their search, as he watched them fan out through the verdant fields.

At first, the Castros dismissed these as growing pains, a natural and common occurrence for a child Skyler’s age.

After a couple weeks, however, Skyler’s mother Shannon began to fear that something may be wrong.

Bikers have many reasons to ride — and to attend Americade

By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com LAKE GEORGE — Clad in leather and sporting a beard, Jim “Smiley” Burrows patted the gas tank of his 1972 Honda 750 motorcycle while several judges scrutinized his and a dozen other vintage road bikes at Americade motorcycle rally on June 5.

Athough it had pitted chrome and showed wear from 192,000 miles it has traveled, Burrows’ Honda was entered into the Vintage bike competition, in which the motorcycles were judged on their condition and the effort invested in their restoration.

Burrows, 60, looked at the gleaming chrome and glowing paint jobs on the motorcycles competing against his.

“My Honda’s not pretty like these other bikes, but I bought it to ride it, not show it off,” he said, remarking that he and his motorcycle had traveled all over the U.S. and Canada many times in the past 30 years, one adventure after another.

“I traded my first wife in for it, and I’m keeping the Honda, he said. “You could offer me a million bucks for it, but I’d think twice about whether to take the money.”

Nearby, Robert Guglielmo of North Scituate R.I. was polishing

the impeccable chrome on a 1986 Suzuki Intruder 700 that his son Robert Jr. drove from Rhode Island to Lake George to attend Americade.

The 2015 edition of week-long Americade, the nation’s leading tour motorcycle rally, was his first — but his father has attended the rally since the mid-1980s.

Back in 1986, Robert Sr.’s wife Becky had test-driven an Intruder at Americade, and on their way home to Rhode Island, they bought the one that’s now considered “vintage.”

For Robert Guglielmo Sr., Americade this year, as many in the past, was a “working vacation, ” he said.

Robert Guglielmo Sr. owns and operates, with his brothers Richard and Tony, Northeast Trikes — which manufactures, retails and services three-wheeled road bikes.

At Americade each year, Guglielmo networks with equipment distributors, reviews the latest advances in two- and threewheeled engineering, and cuts deals with trike manufacturers to add to his inventory.

For the “vacation” element, Guglielmo attends dozens of Americade’s events, including riding on the motorcycle jaunts.

“The riding is fantastic, and there’s so much else,” Guglielmo

said. “My son’s never seen anything like this.”

Robert Jr. walked up and joined the conversation.

“I love Americade — I’ve been to small bike shows, but this is a incredible — it’s a week full of activities,” he said. “The level of appreciation people have for other’s bikes is astonishing, and the rides are beautiful. The people are great.”

through the Nevada desert.

“It was almost meditative,” Bodden said. “It’s called the loneliest road in America.”

Bodden quipped that among all the towns he visited, Lake George has earned a distinction.

“You’ve got absolutely delectable junk food here — there’s nothing healthy to eat in Lake George, and I love it.”

From page 2

While Guglielmos were talking, an award was presented to Nancy Smith of Williamstown Pa. for First Place in the Classic category for her restored Yamaha Virago 750 which had 34,442 on the odometer. Most of those miles were with hers, Smith said, revealing why she bought it in 2007.

“My husband has always been into motorcycling,” she said.

“I used to ride on the back of his bike, but I got tired of it and wanted to drive my own.”

Smith, her husband Cameron and their friends took a 325-mile trip on the way to the rally — it was the 14th Americade that the Smiths have attended since 2000.

Tim Libby of Falmouth Maine, a retired motorcycle policeman, eyed the Guglielmos’ Intruder. Libby’s served as an Americade motorcycle judge for 31 years — since the very earliest years of the annual rally.

“He’s really got this bike detailed well,” he said of the Suzuki, which sported a candy-apple paint job with subtle ghost flares and some tasteful chromed custom handlebars, risers and triple headlights.

“It’s exceptionally clean and its customization is well-balanced,” he added, taking notes on his clipboard. The Intruder ended up placing third in the Vintage category.

Libby eyed several other motorcycles from the 1980s.

“There are some nice ‘Saturday-afternoon’ bikes here,” Libby said. “You don’t have to sink a lot of money into a bike and have a nice ride,” he added, noting he saw one this year in which its owner had invested about $100,000.

As he was examining motorcycles, Libby reminisced about a recent motorcycle trip he took around the U.S. that totalled 7,878 miles, which included riding the full length of the fabled Route 66.

As the judging was finishing up, internationally famous comic Alonzo Bodden mounted his BMW 1600 GT nearby. Bodden headlined two comedy shows at Americade 2015 — his fourth year appearing at the rally, he had been brought back by popular demand, according to reports.

A motorcycle enthusiast, Bodden rode his BMW 1600 GT from Los Angeles to Lake George last week to participate in Americade, considered the world’s leading touring motorcycle rally.

“This year’s Americade has been fantastic — I always have a great time,” Bodden said, noting he’d test-driven several different motorcycles including a Harley-Davidson — a rare opportunity at a rally. “Americade has beautiful riding, great people, and I love the wide variety of bikes.”

Bodden noted he rode his motorcycle 3,700 miles from Los Angeles to Lake George to participate in Americade, visiting a number of national parks along the way.

“This was the first time I’ve ridden across the U.S., and it exceeded my expectations,” he said.

Bodden’s route included a long stretch of U.S. Route 50,

Hundreds honor U.S. soldiers who never returned from battle

By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com LAKE GEORGE — U.S. government agencies should dedicate far more effort to securing the remains of soldiers missing in action, veterans’ group officials proclaimed during the P.O.W./ M.I.A. ceremony held June 7 atop Prospect Mountain in Lake George.

Several hundred veterans, civilians, and leather-clad motorcyclists participated in the services held for those soldiers who never returned from war, or were held captive by enemy forces.

Warren County American Legion Vice Commander Eugene Pierce, emcee of the 46th annual ceremony, spoke to the crowd about his frustrating experiences trying to contact U.S. Defense Department officials to approve a permit for an excavation to unearth soldiers’ remains.

He also noted the ceremony had been founded by Vietnam War veterans who wanted to raise public awareness about the fact that many U.S. soldiers were missing in action or prisoners of war, and the government wasn’t doing enough to bring them back home.

He urged that the younger veterans join the American Legion or V.F.W. and become active in the mission.

“The government has promised that no soldier would be left behind, so we have to keep the pressure on them to have our soldiers returned to the U.S.,” he said.

Ceremony guest speaker Mackenzie Waterston, 21, a Glens Falls High School alumnus, described how she and others had

“Let us never forget them, their wisdom, valor and devotion,” he said. “May we always keep them in our prayers, and comfort their loved ones.”

Noting that terrorism continues to threaten the U.S. and other nations worldwide, Pierce called for the crowd to pay respects to the emergency personnel who responded to the Sept. 11 2001 terrorist attacks, and the law enforcement officers who are continuing in their efforts to keep the U.S. citizenry safe.

Mario’s named Lake George’s first business of the year

By Ryan Edwards

ryan@denpubs.com LAKE GEORGE — Mario’s Italian Restaurant has become a landmark in the Village of Lake George since first opening its doors in 1954.

Now, still owned by the same family 61 years later, Mario’s has been recognized by Village officials as the recipient of the first ever “Business of the Year” award.

The award is not only a reflection of proprietors Paul and Nancy Nichols’ decades of successful business ownership, but also of their extensive charitable involvement in the Lake George community and beyond.

In a press release announcing the final decision, Lake George Mayor Robert Blais said, “For many years, Mario’s has been synonymous with excellent food, fundraisers and the owners’ involvement in the Winter Carnival, Italian Festival, Women in Need and L.G. Youth Commission.”

During their nearly 39-year stint as restaurant owners, the Nicholses have donated to a number of causes and charitable organizations including area food pantries and North Country Ministries, in addition to hosting fundraisers for area residents who have fallen on hard times.

These fundraisers — of which 100 per cent of the proceeds are donated directly to the recipients — include auctions and pasta dinners held at Mario’s for both a local woman in need of a kidney transplant and a local man whose medical expenses stretched him beyond his means, among others.

The Nicholses contributions do not stop there, however; as Nancy serves as the president of Women in Need, an organization designed to help struggling women in the communities

of Warren, Washington, Saratoga, Essex and Albany counties through donations including money, food and clothing.

The organization has no budget, and relies solely on donations and fundraisers — chief among them the annual WIN Golf Tournament held at Cronin’s Golf Resort, which will return for its sixth year on Monday, June 22.

“Some communities don’t have a lot of businesses, but we have many, so it’s kind of neat to be the first business awarded this,” Paul said in an interview.

Nancy agreed: “It’s a great honor to even be nominated, let alone to win,” she said.

The village hot-spot began as a project undertaken by Paul’s grandmother in the 1950s, who endeavored to convert her seasonal home in the North end of the village on Canada Street into an Italian Restaurant, and in 1954 Mario’s was born.

Paul has worked at Mario’s since he was 14 years old, and eventually he and Nancy bought the restaurant from his family, which the couple has run together nearly four decades.

According to Paul, what sets Mario’s apart is the Nicholses’ and their staff’s attention to detail, inside and out.

“We plant flowers out front, we take care of the pavement...” he said, “and when you come inside it looks the same. Everything counts.”

Mario’s is also one of the Village’s only year-round businesses, in a town where even the McDonalds’ closes when the snow begins to fall.

Paul said the Nicholses endure the financial hit in order to keep their core employees working year-round.

“It’s all part of doing business here,” he said.

But Paul isn’t the only person at Mario’s with a decades-long work history, as a number his employees have worked at the restaurant for twenty years or more, many of whom are generational employees.

And it’s not just the employees who keep coming back year after year; some of Mario’s most loyal patrons have been dining at the restaurant for as long as 55 years, Nancy said.

The Nicholses, while proud of their accomplishments, were modest about the upcoming award.

“Nobody’s perfect,” Paul said, “But when we make mistakes, we address it.”

Other nominees considered for the award were the Lake George Steamboat Company and Duffy’s Tavern.

Local teens look forward to brightening others’ lives

By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — Teenagers belonging to a youth group at St. Cecilia’s Catholic Church are embarking on a mission this summer to accomplish tasks and fix up homes of people with limited resources, and they gathered recently to talk about their upcoming work trip.

Members of the youth group discussed their thoughts and expectations of their trip to metropolitan Boston. Their mission involves a week of fix-up, painting and cleaning projects in homes of people that couldn’t normally accomplish the work themselves — plus other volunteer tasks at various social service organizations. The youth will be primarily helping out the elderly, infirm or those with limited financial resources, group leaders said.

Austin West, a senior at Warrensburg High School, who has participated in prior years’ missions sponsored by St. Cecilia, said he was looking forward to the 2015 trip.

“The way the people you work for express their gratitude, is enough to bring me back for another trip,” he said.

Melenie Warner, a junior at Warrensburg High, will be participating in her third mission trip. Last year in the group‘s trip to Arlington NJ, she volunteered in a boys juvenile rehabilitation facility. She said it was interesting to hear about other teens’ life experiences.

“We played games and socialized — it gave the boys a chance to talk about their lives,” she said. “Most of them weren’t planning to finish high school — It’s a good feeling that we may have made a difference in their lives.”

This year’s trip will be the fourth mission for WCS Sophomore

Jayden Cain. She said she and other teen volunteers from all over the northeast U.S. helped repaint a gymnasium in a municipal recreational center.

“After finishing the work, it was rewarding to see the reaction from the kids who ‘d be using the gym,” she said.

Cain also helped fix up an elderly woman’s yard — as well as scraping peeling paint off the home of an elderly woman’s siding, and then repainting the exterior.

“It’s satisfying knowing you help people with something so important to them — in a big way,” she added.

The experience of working alongside other teenagers from other states was also enjoyable, she said.

“Meeting new people is always so awesome,” she said.

Kelly Angell, a Freshman at WCS, worked to upgrade a school for children with disabilities last year on her second mission trip.

She and other volunteers built a ramp between the school and a greenhouse, so wheelchairs could roll between the two.

“It feels good knowing that the kids will be able to get to the greenhouse now,” she said.

James Cunniffe, a Freshman at WCS, said he worked at a food pantry and daycare center last year.

“It was fun and satisfying,” he said.

For Matthew Gerrain, this summer’s trip will be his second mission. Last year, he painted bathroom stalls and made other improvements at an elementary school in Arlington NJ. “It’s intriguing to get out and help other people, making their lives better,” he said.

Mission coordinator and trip chaperone Gail DeMarsh said that the annual missions provide a variety of benefits for the teenagers that participate.

“The kids say they enjoy sharing their faith with others,” she said. “These missions generate enthusiasm for service in helping

others — as well as raising awareness among the kids about how fortunate they really are.”

The mission is funded by about $5,000 in donations, DeMarsh said.

So many people in the community stepped forward to make our mission possible,” she said, expressing thanks also to George Henry’s Restaurant for hosting a fundraising “Wing-Off” this spring to bankroll the trip. “Warrensburg is an incredibly generous community.”

Editorial

Remember the rules of the road

Y

our job is not to be polite, your job is to be predictable.

This could refer to many things, but for this week, we are focusing that quote to the “job” of driving.

Yes, driving is a job. You are responsible for others when you are on the road, and they, in turn, are responsible for you. The payment from this job comes in a very simple form, that you, your car or anyone else sharing the road does not get hurt.

With any job, there are a list of rules and guidelines you have to adhere to. In driving, there are rules and guidelines very familiar to the anxious, acne-dotted face of a teenager preparing for first the written then driver’s test needed to receive the freedom and excitement which comes with a driver’s license.

However, at the moment that business-card sized piece of plastic with a driver’s name and picture exchanges hands, it seems this knowledge flies out the window faster than a cigarette butt from the vehicle in front of you.

As our staff covers the events and news of this area, they are on the road a lot and see examples of both good and bad driving. Here are some common occurrences they have seen which are in need of correction.

Perhaps the biggest problem facing drivers today is distracted driving. Your job on the road is to focus on the road, not on your text messages, Instagram selfies or dinner plans over the phone. That can all be taken care of before or after you get into your vehicle.

Studies have shown the average time to look at a text, email or phone pad is five seconds. That can be a lot of distance based on how fast you are going. Even if there are no cars around you to worry about, there may be hidden driveways or pedestrians in blind spots, and, here in the Adirondacks, there is a good chance some kind of four-legged creature is going to literally cross your path without regard for your right-of-way. While driving, a mobile phone cannot: rest on the driver’s leg, between the shoulder and ear, or on any other part of the driver’s body; be used for text messaging, video messaging, emailing or similar, or; be held in the driver’s hand other than to pass it to a passenger.

Drivers can only use a hand-held mobile phone if their vehicle is parked in an authorised parking spot. They cannot use a hand-held mobile phone while stopped at traffic lights.

Put the phones away, it can wait.

Another common issue we see on the roads are those who either fail to signal or do not realize their signal has remained on after making a turn. Signaling your intentions is a huge responsibility of the job for anyone who drives a vehicle, yet many times people will break suddenly, leaving the drivers both in front and behind to wonder what your intentions are. A wrong guess can lead to a serious accident, especially on rural roads where speeds are higher than in urban areas.

In New York State, the law requires you to signal a turn or lane change with your turn lights or hand signals at least 100 feet (30 meters) ahead. A good safety tip is, when possible, signal your intention to turn before you begin to brake to make the turn.

Even if you know exactly where you are going, it’s a good assumption no one else on the road does, so make sure you signal your intentions. It’s just the flick of a wrist.

It’s also just a quick glance at your dashboard to realize your turn signal is still on.

This can have similar consequences, as drivers will have to slow down or change course in anticipation of a turn that is never coming.

When it comes to right-of-way, too often we see drivers who, while their intentions are somewhat noble, sacrifice the rules of the road for courtesy. An example of this would be having a vehicle stopped at a stop sign, while the approaching vehicle with the right-ofway stops short and offers to let the stopped driver into the flow of traffic.

Courteous, yes. But definitely dangerous for all other drivers on the road.

This is a very dangerous move, as drivers from all sides are not prepared for someone who is going to stop when there is no stop required. They are also not going to yield the right-of-way for the car which now thinks it can merge without consequence.

So, please, help everyone stay safe on the road by doing your job this summer. Ñ Denton Publications Editorial Board, Dan Alexander, Keith Lobdell and John Gereau

Turning Back the Pages

By Jean Hadden Fifty Years Ago – June, 1965 Town acknowledges Emerson gift

Under fitful skies, Monday, May 31, 1965, while the sun dodged in and out of spring rain clouds, Warrensburg dedicated its new town hall to the late Albert L. Emerson, the man whose $150,000 bequest made it possible.

The ceremony was the climax of Memorial Day services which began with a parade at 9 a.m., continued with a brief but eloquent speech at the ceremony by District Attorney Robert Nolan, and concluded at the site of the Town Hall, which is now still under construction.

This was appropriate, Master of ceremonies and former supervisor Lee Orton said at the dedication, because Albert Emerson was not only an illustrious citizen and a generous philanthropist, he was also a veteran of World War II and a holder of the Bronze Star.

The ceremony

An audience of several hundred, which included the Warrensburg School Band, crowded around as Mrs. Bonnie H. Emerson, widow of the town’s benefactor, expertly mortared the cornerstone to the brickwork with a small trowel. Warren Harvey, masonry foreman of Fisk Construction Co., and a native of Warrensburg mixed the mortar.

Councilman Bertram Whittemore, senior member of the town board assisted.

Previously a capsule had been placed in the cornerstone. It contained newspaper clippings and other memorabilia of the life and times of Albert L. Emerson.

Speakers included Supervisor Charles Hastings, Howard Savage, who succeeded Mr. Emerson as president of the Emerson National Bank and Stewart Farrar, who told of the contributions the Emerson family had made to the town. The invocation was delivered by Rev. G.F. Peters of the First Baptist Church and the benediction by Rev. James Hickey of St. Cecelia’s Church.

Heartfelt comments

Mrs. Emerson said, “I know the town hall will be enjoyed and used for the benefit of all the people of Warrensburg as Mr. Emerson intended.” Mr. Lee Orton said that the present town board is bending every effort to “make the building beautiful and functional, a fitting memorial to Albert L. Emerson and a source of pride to the people of Warrensburg.” Supervisor Hastings said that he and other members of the town board accepted with humility the responsibility of supervising the construction of a fitting memorial to Mr. Emerson, whose benevolence made the building of the structure possible.

Emerson family history

Postmaster and historian, Stewart A. Farrar, a personal friend of the late Mr. Emerson, gave highlights of the history of the Emerson family in the community. He said in part, “With the death of Albert L. Emerson, the hundred year dynasty of the Emerson family in this town came to an end.”

The Emerson family name goes far back in New England history. In 1837, Ben and Polly (Wells) Emerson came here from Newberry, N.H., with their son, eight year old son, Albert C. Emerson. Ben was known as “The Deacon” and his wife was called, “Aunt Polly.” They settled in the upper part of the community and conducted a store in the vicinity of Second and Third Avenue.

Genealogy and accomplishments

Note - Albert Cilley Emerson married Abigail Woodward, the daughter of Joseph W. Woodward. They became the parents of two sons, Louis W., born July 20, 1857 and James Alfred, born April 25, 1865.

Albert organized the Emerson Lumber Company and with his son, Louis, the Emerson Bank in 1883. The bank was first established at the apex of Main Street and Hudson Streets. It was known as Emerson and Company Bankers. Later it was moved across the street where Rite Aide is now.

Much later a new bank was built in 1926, next to the 1873 Miles Thomas house, on the former Louis E. Reoux tennis court on Main Street, where the Glens Falls Bank is today. Reoux was a director, and later president of the bank.

Albert was called, “A man of sterling worth.” He died March 12, 1888, after he had given a fiery speech at a confrontational Warrensburgh school board meeting.

The next generation

Note - Louis W. Emerson served as a State Senator and as a United States Representative. Like his father, he was a stanch Republican.

James A. Emerson was also a State Senator, serving from 1907 to 1918.

In June, 1899 he married schoolteacher Margaret Jane MacGregor at the Presbyterian Church, across Main Street from the Greek revival Emerson family mansion, on the corner of Main and Emerson Avenue, that has been in the family since soon after 1855. Both edifices, church and

house, still stand today. The house, remodeled and restored in 2001, is today owned by Faithanne Buck.

In 1914 Jim Emerson was one of the oldest members of the upper house. He became known as the “father of good roads,” and it was due to his efforts that the first state road was built from Lake George to Schroon Lake.

After the death of their father, Louis W. and James A. Emerson formed the Empire Shirt Co., in 1887, the Warrensburgh Woolen Co., in 1899 and later the Pants factory and the Schroon River Pulp and Paper Co. They were also interested in railroads, steamship lines and banks.

They built the Leland House at Schroon Lake, an outstanding hostelry in the north country for many years. James Emerson died Jan. 31, 1922 and Louis Emerson died June 10, 1924.

Grandson’s time in the sun

Note - Albert L. Emerson, the son of James A. Emerson, was born at Warrensburgh on Oct. 17, 1902. He was a graduate of Warrensburgh High School and of Dartmouth College at Hanover, N.H. He became a director and cashier at the Emerson Bank at the age of 22 years. Like his Uncle Louis, Albert was a stanch Republican. At the time of his death, Aug. 9, 1963, age 60 years, he was president of the Emerson Bank and a director of the National Commercial Bank and Trust Company of Albany. He had an interest in the Hercules Power Corporation of Glens Falls, formerly the Imperial Paper and Color Corporation, and A.C. Emerson and Co., Inc., of Warrensburgh. Prior to his death he owned the Colonial Arms hotel and motel which he sold to Marcus and Edna Bruce. “Colonial Arms” is a title he personally invented.

Warrensburgh was known to many as “Emerson’s Town.” With the death of Albert L. Emerson, the local old Maplewoods baseball team lost its mascot and the town lost its best friend,” said Howard W. Savage.

Albert Emerson’s last legacy

Note - On Sept. 10, 1963, the Warrensburg Town Board voted to purchase a portion of the former Burhans property in Main Street, opposite St. Cecelia’s Church, as the site of the Town Hall. The site was bought from Frank R. Olden, Sr., for $24,000. Despite some public legal opposition, the Town Board won the right in court, on May 24, 1965, to use Emerson’s money to purchase the site without a public referendum.

The total for all bids for the construction was $89,898. It is expected that the building will be ready for occupancy in December, 1965.

Scattered memories

Note - The old Emerson store, operated by Ben Emerson, Albert Emerson’s great-grandfather, who came from New Hampshire, stood on the south front lawn of what is today the Cornerstone Victorian bed and breakfast at North Main Street. Local people at that time were said to have referred to the store’s location as “Up Hampshire Way.” The store building was moved many years ago to Thomson Street, behind the Cornerstone and was formerly occupied by Pat Bisbee. The former Emerson house, next door, which was also moved, was the former home of Ken Sprague.

Albert’s devoted wife

Zenna Bonnie Branceford Bennett Emerson, born Oct. 20, 1918 near Lexington, Kentucky, owned and operated Bonnie View Summer Resort, on Lake George in 1950 and 1960, located in Bolton Landing, eight miles north of Lake George Village. The widow of Albert L. Emerson, she died April 5, 2005 in Boca Raton, Florida. She left behind a son, Bernard Dale Bennett, five grandchildren and five great-grandchildren.

Her funeral was in St. Cecelia’s Church here and she was buried in the Warrensburg Cemetery.

Remembering Albert, the good years

Many years ago I used to visit my friend, Olive Lynch, who lived in an apartment on the second floor of the converted Emerson mansion and her living room was once the bedroom of Albert L. Emerson. As I sat and gazed south out the window at the green lawns below, I used to think of him doing the same thing in all the years it took him to grow up in that beautiful house. He probably pondered often about what a task it would be to ever fill his illustrious father’s shoes.

Albert L. Emerson was a kind, thoughtful man who never let his money or his prestigious family tree go to his head. He seemed to be always looking for ways to make the world just a little bit better around him. Occasionally I would sit in a seat in the Emerson Town Hall and gaze at the painting of him hanging there, sadly looking down upon the assembled townspeople with that little amused smile on his face and wonder just what, as he posed, he had been thinking. Shakespeare surely would have suggested, “Look what fools these mortals be,” It is indeed a pity that he never had a son to carry on the Emerson line. He was the last of his line, truly a fine man!)

Fireworks events moved due to lack of funding LAKE GEORGE — The Village of Lake George’s fundraising efforts towards their planned fireworks shows have fallen upon deaf ears with contributions coming from only twelve businesses, according to Mayor Blais.

A recent mailing to over 100 local businesses resulted in donations of $4,800, falling short of their goal of $10,000. As a result one recent show, during Lake George Performance Weekend, was cancelled. Five other shows scheduled over the lake will be moved to the Festival Commons space at Charles R. Wood Park. This site will not involve hiring a barge and accommodate smaller shows.

The village had to cut back on their fireworks budget due to other priorities in their 2015-2016 budget as well as a slight increase in costs by the low bidder. Regular Thursday night shows, costing $6,000 each, will not be affected.

Companies or merchants contributing to the appeal included the Lake George Steamboat Company, Shoreline Cruises, Christie’s on the Lake, Sundowner Motel, Heritage of Lake George, Boulders, Georgian

Resort, Lake Motel, Surfside on the Lake, McDonalds of Lake George and Waterfront Living and Trustco Bank.

“Most communities would rely on a Business Improvement District (BID) to fund these shows,” Mayor Blais said. “Here in our village funding comes from our General fund and our residents should not be carrying the burden of events that benefit mostly the business community, particularly when they don’t respond to our needs.”

Fireworks weekly attract several thousand to the resort community and along with over 50 free events in Shepard Park make the village an exciting destination each summer. Tourists, no matter where they are staying, come to the Village for the fireworks.

“Supervisor Gene Merlino of Luzerne called and offered a donation of $500,” the Mayor said. “It’s sad when another town offers a donation and a business on Canada Street doesn’t respond.”

The Town of Lake George annually contributes $17,000 to the Village for all the special events held in Shepard Park and the fireworks.

Tying your shoe laces

H

ave you ever heard the phrase, “I’m all in but my shoe laces?” A Malone friend posted comments on a social media site recently. She said they had come home and she was very tired after the trip, thus the shoe laces line. I told her I loved it, but it was unfamiliar to me.

Just when you think you know such things because you’ve lived in rural areas for many years, such colorful phrases pop up. I ran into another room and asked Kaye if it was familiar to her.

It was. “What would you say

by Gordie Little if you were exhausted like that?” she queried. The first thing that came to mind was, “I’m too pooped to pop” or “I’m just plain dog tired.”

How do these things get started anyway?

Somebody had to be first. It was either in conversation or in print. Often the origin is lost in the mists of time. Others with much more time and energy have searched such things and have written serious books and articles on the topic.

What I do here each week is mostly just for fun as I try to get conversations started around your kitchen table.

I’ve always been interested in studying the English language and the history of words. That’s the definition of etymology. To learn word roots and how those words have changed throughout the years is a great pastime. I especially like to learn how colloquial words and phrases from this area got their start. I know you’ve all said “jeezum crow” at one time or another and I have a good friend who makes a living by putting those words on his homemade products. We’ve also spent a lot of time trying to find out how our iconic food delight called michigans got started.

Sometimes, it’s fairly easy to trace the origin of words and phrases. The Internet and digital age have facilitated that effort tremendously. I’ve written often about “brass monkeys,” “breaking the ice,” “over the top,” “keeping your eye on the ball” and others. Some go all the way to the Holy Bible and many were coined by Shakespeare himself. Others were no doubt borne straight out of small talk by farmers such as “making hay while the sun shines.”

Although not familiar to me, the one about the shoe laces is perfect. When you hear it, you know instantly what it means. Last weekend, Kaye and I drove up to the wonderful, old Petrova School in Saranac Lake. It was charming because Kaye graduated on that stage when it was a high school way back when. Also, because one of our 37 great grandchildren was performing there with other youngsters who charmed their parents and friends.

Little dancer Lydia’s big brother Logan walked in and out with us. I noticed that both of his laces were not only untied, but were strung out behind him as he walked. He was oblivious and, amazingly, didn’t trip or stumble even once. I had a flashback to age five and heard my mother’s voice in my head saying, “Tie those laces or you’ll trip and fall.” Later, I saw that Logan’s laces were tied securely in beautiful ‘rabbit ear” loops. I didn’t ask who did it. Maybe my mother’s voice was loud enough for him to hear it as well.

Do they still teach lace tying in kindergarten?

When our kids were small, they brought home writing assignments challenging them to describe on paper the precise steps for tying their shoe laces. Guess who helped them with that project and made himself crazy in the process?

My mother has long since crossed the river Jordan and is blissfully residing on the other side; but Kaye is my conscience and often reminds me to tie my shoe laces and keep my zipper zipped.

She has saved me from public embarrassment so many times. How I love that woman.

My advice to you: listen to your mother and your wife. Keep your eye on the ball, tie your shoe laces, keep your powder dry and don’t shoot till you see the whites of their eyes.

Northern Points Cluster preparing to celebrate 20 years

By Ryan Edwards

ryan@denpubs.com CHESTERTOWN — The Northern Points Cluster of Churches is preparing to celebrate its 20-year anniversary beginning on Wednesday, June 17.

In 1995, Saint John the Baptist Church in Chestertown, Blessed Sacrament Church in Hague, and Saint James Church in North Creek were asked by the Diocese of Albany to become a “cluster,” presided over by a single priest.

In recent years, the Catholic Church has seen a decrease of priests. By 2020, the projected number of priests in the 14-county Diocese of Albany is only 57. To combat this issue, the diocese has begun merging churches to form clusters in an attempt to share resources and strategize together to keep their parishes afloat.

At the time, the transition was overseen by Rev. George Fleming and Parish Life Director Francesca Husselbeck, but since the summer of 2007, Rev. John O’Kane has led the cluster.

“We knew that in 20 years we wouldn’t have enough priests,” Rev. O’Kane said. “This is something that we all have to deal with.”

In this consolidation, St. John the Baptist and Blessed Sacrament — now a seasonal church — became a single parish. After a public vote, three names for the new parish were chosen and

A response

To the Editor: Reader John Sharkey recently took exception to a letter to the editor I previously wrote criticizing publisher Dan Alexander for misstating historical facts by asserting that the founding fathers’ vision for our country stressed the importance of it being a “nation under God.” I won’t indulge Mr. Sharkey in meaningless back-and-forth argument over the issue, but will simply point out that fortunately he is no more entitled to come up with his own facts (let alone to rewrite our Constitution) than is Mr. Alexander. Interested readers should look at the source material for themselves and see just who is bungling what here.

Because “what’s wrong with America today” is a common theme of Mr. Alexander’s and a common interest of my own, though, I would like to take just a moment to address a couple of other things Mr. Sharkey said as I believe they exemplify a major problem currently entrenched in our society. I’m talking about the mindset so common among people today that “if you’re not with us, you’re against us!”

Redefining America as a Christian nation is a cause du jour among many on the far right of the political spectrum, so per the aforementioned mindset, anyone who speaks out against this cause must of course be a politically polar opposite. Hence

sent to the bishop in Albany, who decided on St. Isaac Jogues as the new name — a fitting namesake for a North Country Church.

Martyred in 1646, St. Isaac Jogues was a Jesuit priest and missionary who traveled and worked among the native populations in seventeenth century North America. He is credited with having given Lake George its original European name—Lac du Saint Sacrement, which translates to Lake of the Blessed Sacrament.

One of the vessels owned by the Lake George Steamboat Company still bears this name.

Both Rev. O’Kane and Pastoral Associate of Parish Life Barbara Carlozzi said that, although rocky at first, the 1995 transition has turned out to be a positive one for their parishioners, particularly among the Youth Ministry.

Carlozzi said the kids in the unified parish have had an easier time working together than some of the adults, among whom “there was a lot of hurt feelings at first.”

“Johnsburg kids go to games in North Warren, and vice versa; the younger kids are riding the backs of the older kids from other churches,” she said. “They teach us what cluster is all about.”

In the spirit of togetherness, one way the cluster has worked to integrate all three churches is their yearly observation of Holy Week.

Every year during Holy Week, Holy Thursday is observed in Hague, Good Friday is observed in North Creek and Easter Sunday is observed in Chestertown, as St. John the Baptist is the

largest of the three and centrally located.

“They still have their own masses, but for Holy Week, it’s the cluster experience,” Carlozzi said.

In order to commemorate 20 years of togetherness, the Northern Points Cluster will follow this same model with three celebratory events to be held between June and September.

On Wednesday, June 17, a 6 p.m. Healing and Reconciliation Mass will be held at St. Isaac Jogues in Hague, similar to the one held to begin the cluster in 1995. The Mass will be followed by a wine and cheese reception.

At noon on Sunday, August 23, at St. James Church in North Creek, the Stations of the Cross will be performed by the Cluster’s Youth Ministry. This is a unique performance at which members of the Youth Ministry present the Stations of the Cross using vignettes from their personal lives to depict the day of Jesus’ crucifixion. Following the ceremony, a 1 p.m. anniversary picnic will be held at Ski Bowl Park in North Creek.

On Sunday, August 30, at 3 p.m. an anniversary Mass will be held at St. Isaac Jogues in Chestertown, followed by a reception in the Parish Center.

Invitations have been sent to the clergy who assisted in the original union, as well as former parishioners and other friends of the cluster. A memorial donation basket will be available at all three functions for anyone who cannot attend, or who wishes to donate on behalf of a loved one.

Letters to the Editor in Mr. Sharkey’s view I wasn’t simply correcting the facts, but was instead “espous[ing]” a “liberal ideology.” And just to drive home how terrible being a dreaded liberal would make me, for good measure he closed his letter with a sidelong swipe at my patriotism.

In truth, if holding to historical/legal fact and the secular governance protected thereby amounts to any kind of ideology it would be that of constitutionalism, not liberalism. But in truth, too, any person of reasonable intellect and good intention is likely to have a mix of beliefs, some progressive, some conservative, some libertarian, some environmental, etc. Many beliefs could also be attributed to more than one ideology.

For the record, I strive to be one such person and accordingly prefer to remain free of any pure ideology and independent of any political party (not to mention any party’s extreme factions) – not that I think those who align themselves with one or another of these deserve demonization for doing so (perhaps excepting those extreme factions). I realize this simple fact won’t stop Mr. Sharkey or anyone else who is committed to the “us versus them” mentality from assigning me to some foolish enemy camp and trying to do battle with me for saying something that’s contrary to their beliefs, but maybe they’ll ultimately gain a better understanding of the reality of life if more of us stand up and say “I’m neither for nor against you, I’m for all of us, in

my own way!”

I think it’s worth a try, anyway.

Letter to the Editor

Avoid antibiotic-tainted meats To the Editor, Last Tuesday, President Obama directed federal agencies to serve antibiotic-free meat and poultry in government cafeterias. The FDA will require animal procedures to obtain authorization from a licensed veterinarian to use drugs to treat a specific disease, rather than just to promote rapid growth, as is current practice. As much as 80 percent of all U.S. antibiotics are used in animal agriculture (1).

The moves come amid growing concern about the link between routing antibiotic use in animal agriculture and human infections by bacteria that have developed resistance to antibiotics because of their excessive use the CDC estimates that antibiotic resistance causes two million illnesses per year in the U.S. and 23,000 deaths. It also adds $20 billion per year in health care costs and $35 billion in lost productivity (2). And we thought that animal products were just linked to heart disease, cancer, and stroke while government agencies reduce antibiotics in animal products, the rest of us can do better immediately with wholesome vegetables, fruits, legumes, grains and a rich variety of plant-based meats, cheeses, milks, and ice creams available in supermarket. These foods contain all the nutrients we require, without the deadly pathogens, antibiotics, carcinogens, cholesterol, and saturated fats.

Manhunt

From page 1 Early Tuesday, agents appeared to zero in on a field between Willsboro and Essex, eventually blocking it off shortly after 11 a.m.

George Sayward said he saw agents stationed near his barn at 5 a.m. when he went to do chores.

“They told me that they had gotten a tip about a possible sighting of the escapees right where my farm is,” said Sayward.

If the convicts, Richard Matt and David Sweat, were in fact out there, they’d be facing difficult conditions, said Sayward: the rolling fields are punctuated by dense brush and wetlands reaching knee-deep in some places.

As he spoke, thunder rolled overhead.

The brewing storm, paired with the whorl of emergency lights, the lingering mountain mist and the forlorn call of passing trains, transformed a quiet farming community into a scene from a noir film.

As the chatter grew to a fevered pitch, both on social media and at places like the Willsboro Meat Market, state police said some 440 agents were going door-to-door checking homes and seasonal residences for the two men, both convicted murderers.

Willsboro supervisor Shaun Gillilland said he received at least a dozen calls that morning from concerned residents.

Law enforcement is taking every tip seriously, he said.

By 6:30 p.m., the focus of the investigation appeared to shift as the law enforcement officials began to vacate their stations on Route 22, where earlier that morning, they had been positioned at regular intervals, all armed and wearing bulletproof vests.

At the intersection of Middle Road and Route 22, several dozen correction officers hopped back on a bus and took off, destination unknown.

Authorities continued to be visible in mid-evening — parked in clearings and in residential driveways — while state police K-9

Skyler

From page 1 Shannon brought her daughter to a number of orthopedics between January and April of 2014, none of whom could offer any insight into Skyler’s condition, some among them even concluding that the pain was “all in her head,” Shannon recalled.

Fed up with these fruitless visits, Shannon brought her daughter to Glens Falls hospital and told the staff “I’m not leaving without answers,” she recalled.

The answer she received, however, is arguably the most crushing news a parent can hear: On April 30, 2014, Skyler was diagnosed with stage four Ewing Sarcoma, then only nine years old.

This type of primary bone cancer, which accounts for only one per cent of all childhood cancers, is identified by a “Ewing tumor” which generally originates in bone.

In Skyler’s case, her doctors discovered a seven-centimeter tumor in her psoas hip muscle, which had made contact with a nerve in her spine, causing the pain that accounted for her’s and eventually her parents’ many sleepless nights.

units appeared to be on standby.

Win Belanger resides at another location that became a hotspot of activity throughout the day.

By 6:45 p.m., only the television crews remained, he said.

“You wouldn’t even know they were there,” he said of the law enforcement officials.

Essex and Willsboro, both historical farming communities located about 35 miles south of Dannemora, have seasonal economies heavily dependent on tourism.

The countryside boasts countless places where the escapees could hide, including abandoned farms, houses, shacks, silos and seasonal homes.

In Dannemora, several prison employees, both uniform and civilian, have been interviewed in the investigation, said state police.

One employee, Joyce Mitchell, is said to have aided the killers in their sophisticated escape.

Numerous outlets are reporting that Mitchell, a civilian employee who worked as an instructor in the prison’s tailor shop, Skyler was brought by ambulance to Albany Medical Center, where a PET scan detected another two-centimeter tumor on her L4 spinal segment, which had metastasized to her lungs.

Naturally, this was a devastating blow to the Castro family, and unfortunately their stay at the hospital had only just begun.

Over the following months, Skyler underwent extensive radiation treatment and chemotherapy, often returning to Albany five days a week for treatment.

Caring for Skyler became a full-time job for Shannon, while her husband Ed continued to work to provide for the family, which includes Skyler’s older and younger sister.

“We lived in the hospital the last year,” Shannon said. “The nurses on her floor are like part of our family.”

Skyler returned to school at Warrensburg Central for the first few weeks of September, and she continued through private tutoring for some time after that.

“The school’s been great,” Shannon said, “but for a few months we just didn’t do anything because she was so sick.”

Despite this setback, Skyler will start fifth grade with her class in September.

Skyler’s extensive treatments appear to have been effective, as Shannon was pleased to report “as of right now, the cancer is gone — no more chemo!”

Skyler will continue to be monitored monthly, however, but this recent development has allowed for the Castro family to fall back into a somewhat-normal routine, for which they are thankful, Shannon said.

‘SKYLER STRONG’ Upon her return from her final treatment on Wednesday, May 27, friends, family and a sea of yellow balloons lined the sidewalk across from Richards Library in Warrensburg to welcome Skyler home, just as they had done when she was first diagnosed.

The homecoming gathering was a surprise for Skyler, who thought she was going out to dinner with her uncle, Adam Griswold, when she hopped

aided the convicts by providing assistance, even a possible escape vehicle before bailing out at the last minute.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo said earlier this week that he believes the escapees had assistance.

Leads continue to be generated along the Clinton and Essex County border and residents will notice an increased police presence in this area, said state police.

Dannemora remained under tight security on Wednesday, with numerous roadblocks and security checkpoints.

No arrests have been made.

Authorities asked for the public’s continued cooperation and vigilance throughout the investigation.

Anyone with any information is encouraged to call 518-5633761 or 1-800-GIVETIP. Tips can also be sent to crimetip@troopers. ny.gov.

Skyler Castro, bouqet in hand, stands on the bed of her father’s pickup truck and raises her arms in relief as dozens of friends, family and community members who made up her welcome party release yellow balloons into the air. Skyler was diagnosed with cancer last year, and, as of now, is officially cancer-free.

on the back of his motorcycle in Warrensburg.

Instead, escorted by a Warren County Sheriff, Skyler rode past the library and continued on to the Warrensburg Recreational Field.

As she passed, a deafening cheer resounded up and down Library Avenue, and Skyler’s entourage followed close behind in a parade-style march in the middle of the street to meet her at the park.

There, Skyler posed for photos with her family and friends before all of the balloons, carrying with them the stress and uncertainty of the previous year, were released into the sky.

Josh Cameron, a former Warrensburg resident and uncle to Skyler, was one of the dozens that made up her welcome party.

“It’s incredible how the community has come together to show her support, and that’s what it’s all about,” he said. “There’s been so many people who have done different fund raisers and parties to show support for her.”

These events include a car show at the Boar’s Nest in Fort Ann, and fundraisers at George Henry’s in Warrensburg and a the Thurman Town Hall/Rec. Field.

Shannon expressed her gratitude for all of the support her family has received since Skyler was diagnosed.

“Everybody everywhere, not just Warrensburg, has come together,” she said. “Skyler is viral.”

could significantly change the way the sale is held and publicized. Before decisions are made, these volunteers wants to sit down with folks who regularly sell at the annual event and who would be impacted by the decisions made. All who value this chance to “recycle” their unwanted household items and earn a little money from doing it are asked to attend a short meeting Wednesday, June 17, at town hall, at 6:30 p.m., using the old part of the hall if another group is in the kitchen. The current committee will not continue the present system, and seller input will help ensure that the new system is one that sale holders find workable. For any questions call Perky Granger at 623-9305 or email PersisGranger@aol.com.
