1t seems that the Coleman>Flack |
marriage notice last week should |
not have been made. They didn't /
marry, but were merely joking their |
friends. After the announcement ap- |
peared in the paper, they could not
enjoy the joke so well, as it was on
the other side. Consequently they !
ask that the report be corrected.
In another column will be found |
the announcement Of w. NJ. Mccall, !
Esq, as candidate for City Attor~ |
ney. 1t is hardly necessary for US to |
say anything about his abilities. He

county, and is the very man for the
place. We have no donht of has
election. ftq
