lisms, OF Blsnchester, has consented, at the
solicitation OF his friends, to be 4 candidate
for clerk OF the Clinton Court OF Common
Pleas At the eoming election. Mr.. Williams
was unfortunately crippled for life by an &C.
cldent when quite a boy, but with indomita-
BILE energy h0 struggled against poverty and
adverse eircumstAnces until he gained a good
education, and has for years past not only
supported himself, but a,so aided his pArents
He is now and hiss been for several years q
clerk In the Treasury Department at wash.
lngton, and has discharged his duties to the
entire satisfaction OF his employers. He
wishes, however, TO be with his family at
home, and with that view will be \ candidate
for clerk OF the court. He is well qualified for
the ONCE, and every way deserving, and we
hope the Republicans Of Clinton will give his
claims proper consideration.
We copy the above from the Hillsboro'
Highland (Ohlo) Wees. A mistake appears
In loclting Mr.. Williams, as he is n clerk In
the Patent ONCE, instead Of the Treasury.
Mr.. Williams is well known and much re.
spected In this community. His efforts In
behalf of Sabbath school and temperance
organizations are known TO many. We are
glad TO know that his friends In Ohio ap.
preclate his services, and we wish him hearty
success in his undertaking. lie is we'll fitted
for the Office he seeks, and we feel confident
his many claims TO the position will be
recognized.
