of committee looking for
the location of large settlement OF
farmers, called at the
Gazette otice,-lt vas supposed by
some citizens from the severe wind that
visited Austin Wednesday night that
the coact must have suffered severely !
from its effects We thought differently
and so stated 1t is rarely ever the
case that prevalent winds in this section
reach the gull, and the reverse is equally
true. "A man named Joe Boyce, was
arrested, charged with intoxication.
When searched he had belt contain
ing 800 mostly in 500 bills. He also
had one gold and two silver watches on
his person. Boyce is suspected OF dis
honesty in the possession OF the watches
at least, from the manner in which he
them on his person and his
drunken mutterings. - A horrible
murder was committed last Saturday |
night in Brennan, German by the
name of Fox being the victim 1t is
rumored that the perpetrators are
known, and will be arrested. Full par
