KINGSVILLE.

Eds. Tel. AN article in your last paper
in reference to the law cases in which the
Williams Bros. are plaintiffs against num-
Der of our citizens, is calculated to mislead
outsiders-those not acquainted with the
facts in the matter. Every one knows,
though perhaps not willing to admit it,
that the following brief recital is true.
The quality of the History of Ashtabula
County, is not the great point at issue, but
1t is the fact Of being regular subscriber.
The names of dozens of our citizens were
fraudulently obtained, and Of course, when
payment was demanded they demurred.
Many Of those who paid for the book at
once, have no hesitation in saying that
they never subscribed for it, while others
taken by surprised in being counted on
the list, stood out. This of course, under
the circumstances, was their right, if not
duty. The results of the trials, with the
rulings and settling process reported, looks
not unlike so many criminals having been
arraigned for legal treatment. This was
not an agreeable aspect Of their cases, some
refuse to settle just claims against them.
As sample of the spirit of fairness with
which some OF the party acted, let US give
some of their work. There was much talk
about putting these cases in the Court of
Common Pleas. The following-Perry
Parker, M. S. Harmon, J. E. Glezen,
Chas. Reed, A. NJ. Nettleton, Pomeroy
Poor, Levi Poor, A. H. Tracy, Solomon
Wright, aud R. L. Grover, offered to pre-
face going to law, with an offer Of 50 from
each to the publishers, and let them keep
the books. One of the number was ap-
pointed to make the offer. The offer was
not accepted. But another offer was made |
by Williams Bros.-lhat if they would |
make the offer 50 more and keep books
they would call il all right. The report Of |
the committee not having come to all, the
settlement was begun each in his own way.
Some at discount of 80 per cent, in Others

real settling process. / intended to be

Eds. Tel. The busy hum of the thresh-
ing machine has been heard in our midst
for some time, many of the farmers hav-
ing to thresh their wheat to make room in
their barns for their oats. The bountiful
crop of these grains this year has brought
barn room up to premium.
Mr.. E. E. Hatch has gone to Trumbull
county to assist in running a ten horse
power threshing machine and expects to
remain there during the threshing season.
Mr.. David Hatch went at the same time on
a visit, and is expected to return this week.
Among those who are making prepera-
tions to attend the camp meeting at
Thompson next week, are Rev. J. B. Ham
mond and family, Mrs. A. G. Brown, J.
W. Sims and family. They will build
tent on the ground, and a part of them
will attend all through the meeting.
Mrs. Graves had the misfortune to be
thrown out of Mr.. C. B. Russell's express
wagon by the horse starting up suddenly
before she was seated throwing her and
the seat to the ground, fortunately she fell
by the side of the seat and not upon it.
and though considerably Jared by the fall
yet no bones were broken, and she is slowly
recovering from the effects.
