Oats harvest is in order.
The busy clatter of the threshing ma
chimes are heard in every direction, and
each farmer, so far, rejoices in boun,iful
harvest.
Mrs. Samantha Willard and her daugh-
Ter Ella, who have been visiting with W.
G. Bnrdick's family for some time, left
last Saturday for their home in Laport,
Ind.
Last Tuesday afternoon little baby
belonging to +. J. Hatfield, living near
here, fell from an up stairs door 20 the
porch below, distance of ID feet, aud
strange to say the little darling was not
hurt beyond few sight bruises.
What has become of the Mi chigan let

Last Thursday, the day set for our Sun
day School Picnic, dawnel bright and
beautiful, the first requisite necessary for
good time. A number Of schools were
invited to participate and none but the
Freeport school responded. However, all
that were present were ably entertained
and magnifcently fed The Bloombale
Cornet Band furnished the music for the
occasion, and to do the boys justice will
say that they acquitted themselves credit
ably. The speakers were Rev. Casseman,
of Fostora, and Rev. Reeder. OF Frceport !;
and last but not least, much credit is due
the Marshal, W. 7. Kelly, for his earnest
work and gooI management.
Some dissatisfaction prevails in this re-
gion on account of misrepresentation
made by a solicitor for the Toledo CONNER
| cidi. The agent got number of sIibscri-
bers here by saying that the Commercial
would support Hon. Chas. Foster fur Gov
ernor, and the tone now OF said paper
proves that the agent was a prcvaricntur,
| and that the Commercial is a red hot worker
| for Ewing and Rice, and as Wood county
| is solid for Foster, the Commercial is not a
very welcome vistOr-in fact so little
stuck is taken in it that some even refuse
to take it from the postolfice.
