The structure will do for a garage, a woodshed, or a workshop, and Mr. Reming ton willuse it for the latter pur pose for a while as he will soon begin construction on a residence for himself and Mrs. Remington to live in. We rather think that Mr. Remington is inclined to the garage idea as he is making the structure good and strong, but it may serve for all three purposes yet.
