Mr.. Emory West, the workinymen's
candidate for Prothouotary, paid n visit 10
our town on "Wednesday last, and white here

I is mn honest, upright man and would make
good officer, but Cambria county, it is al

In our notice last week of tde death of
john G. Miles Esq, we were mistaken In
saying that he came To Ebenshurg as a young
/ lawyer in 1918, and after remaining here
| three wears removed TO Huntington. 1t was
in 1921 thai Mr.. Miles located III this place,
aud subsequently,, i'm tte same year, went to
/ Huntington. The JOhnstowu Tribune was
also in error when 1t said that MIR, N lies
read law in this place In 1874 with Hon.
NJ oses Canaan, long snce deceased. He read
law In Beliefonte prior &c his appearance
here in 1921, hat with what legal gentleman
of that place we are unable to ray.
Two tooth-extractiug forceps and what
the Tribune calls n vagina! spectrum OF
CusCo's pattern, with Huupt's $ improvements,
| whatever in thunder that is, valued in all at
thirteen dollars, were stolen from the Office
! of Dr. Narbourg, I'm Johnstown, on Wednes-
day OF last week, 10y tramp, who sul'se-
uurntly sold the forCeps to Dr. Wilson, of
Fast Cun-maugh, meantime Pocke'ing a
twelve dollar case of instruments betuuging
to that gentleman. The same dishonest
wavfarer also st,,le case OF surgical instru-
neuts from DR.. Swan. of Jol.nslown, which
II. tried in vain to sell to some OF the phy-
scaus in that place.
Sister Veronica, of the order of St. Jos
eph whose age and name in the world we
| failed TO learn, died OF consumption at the
Mother House in this place, gu Sunday
| morning last after "A long and painful illness.
The deceased was fully conscious mp to the
moment of dissolution and received with
great f.rvor aud piihcatiou the last sacra-
tnents of the Catholic Church only few
minutes before her eyes closed forever upon
! scr,., of earth. Her life WAS repete with
pious and charitable deeds, and her death
was as peaceful as IL was happy aud fuIl OF
nrcmise for the never-epdiug joys of eternity.
MAY her soul rest in peace
We had the pleasure OF an oduction
through our friend Mr. john McFeely, the
other day to a gentleman named DEWITT,
who has had large experieEce IN the OIL
business, and who assured MS thnt Rrer
martial o examination of the farm of Mr.. Am
ibonv MYERS in Gallitzin township, this
county he had 10 doubt there was oil there,
but whether 1t was the work of nature or art
no was not prepated to say, though the rock
formations on the land were strongly sng-
gestive of the former. He Intends to inves-
tipate the matter still further in the course
Of two or three weeks, when no DOUBT he
will let us hear the result.
Mr.. Peter Sofners y ior"iet ven h"o " y
and very worthy citizen OF thiS county,
writes ma enclosing a years subscription TO
the FREEMAN from his home in Livingston
county. Illinois, that the first frost to leave
its impress there occurred on the 9th inst,
that new corn is selling at ~ cents per que !
eI of 80 pounds In that neighborhood, while
old corn brings 80 cents per bushel OF 90
nounds and that he and his folks, or I'VE,
as he expresses it, shelled and shipped to
Chicago last week Ave Thousand bushels OF
