The annual June meeting Of the
church Of the Disciples held here last
week Wa very well AtleDded. Both
houses Of worship were occupied by
them, and both were we'll hlled through
out. Rev. Mr., Lobsngier Of New York,
Rev. Mr.. BiIden Of Troy, and several
other clergyman of this denomination
were present. A great deal OF interest
was manifested.
An unfortunate occurrence happened
last week between Charles West aud
Elisha llAwley Jr. The Hawleys have
been accustomed TO cross Vests land TO
reach piece OF land they own beyond
Vests. Gu that day, young llawIey in
company with Mr.. Moore was driving
some sheep acroas this land, " hen West
came out And forbade their crossing, aud
told them to 20 back. As they had got
nearly across and 1t wAs very hot aud a
long distance round, HAWley told him be
would not, when West struck him with
a club knocking him down aud rendering
him senselcss for some minutes. No
very serious injury Is likely to result, ex-
cept unpleasantness between the parties.
