Catoctin clarion. [volume] (Mechanicstown, Md.) 1871-1940, 1876-03-17

WE hear ii stated that COL John IL.
Rouzer will remove his family to Frcdcr-
lex in few weeks. We regret exceeding
ly to hear this as the Col. is a live and en-
crgetic man and has done considerable to
build up our town. Both he and his fam
lily will be greatly missed if this be the
case, and Frederick will be one good citi-
zen better off.
A BIG stink is predicted by the long
nose gentry and others in very short time.
The new bone mill it is said will cause
it. Well, what if it does, can't we stand a
little unpleasant smell for the sake Ct bust
ness. We know of several places in our
town that smell q great deal louder than
ever the bone mill will, and yet its tolcra-
! ted.
