SUMNERHILL, Pa Nov. S, 1879.
DEAR FREEMAN-In reply 10 a correspondent
from Portage township who signs himsel. Buck
valuable columns to contradict untruths presented
to the taxpayers Of Portage township in regard to
the building of n sch0Ol-house in the aforesaid
township near IteI's He says it was not built ac-
cording to the specifications and that the wall was
to be Of double plank two inches thick Now. the
wall, according to specifications. to be of two
inch plank doubled, with inch boards He
saws the lower ioists were to be 3xI2 whereas tn ey
were to be 21Ixl2 set two feet to centre. l had
that part of the specifications improved by the Di-
rctors To- e set on is inches to centre resting on
a summer in the centre OF the building. Let the
taxpayers judge If it saving Of one-half to the
contractor 1t was no saving OF material TO the
contractor, not saying anything of the additional
labor it cost the contractor but all for The ben
eit to the taxpayers.
uOnately. Such is not correct. Then he goes on
find fault with the flooring weatherboardlng
as good No. as IS generally used in build
ings, which my orders will show and also show
that they were ordered from hrst-class dealers and
paid for as first-class.
He says the proposals for putting up the build
ing were according TO specifications, but the work
was not. Does he mean to say that was not re
sponsible as though the board of Directors were
forced 10 take the job off my hands LAS though
was indebted to the township which would be
far from being correct. gave to the Board Of Di-
rectors bond aS guarantee for double the amount
of the contract, which good as gold and did
not draw one cent from the treasury OF said town
ship until the job was inspected by the Directors,
hNe Deihg present. 1hls oody pronounced IL a
good and complete job according to specifications,
an ordered the Secretary TO issue an order the
treasury for the amount of Stalls. which my
bid at the letting, and not S47475 your CORES
pOndent has it. Probably. If he had had the con-
tract and had done the extra work necessary for
the completion of the building which was not in
the specifications the job would in all probability
have cOst $500 where il did not cost the taxpayers
one cent more than bid at the letting.
lfyour correspondent is backed by the taxpayers
why does he not come out and sign his
mime to his correspondence and not the hcti-
tious name Of "Buckwheat2' Every taxpayer
knows there is no one of that name in Portage
township. Orsioes he think that 81 he crawls over
and gets behi1d pile of buckwheat he cannot be
detected? Respectfully, J. +. Lone.

THERE is an advertisement in our columns
to which we take much pleasure in referring
our readers because we believe in it and can
cOnScientiOusiy and heartily recommend 1t.
We refer to Halls Hair Renewer. We re-
member many cases in our midst OF old and
middle-aged people who formerly wore grey
hair, or whose locks were thin and faded, but
who now havespreSentable head pieces, and
with no little pride announce to their friends
that they haven't a grey hair IN thelr heads.
1t is a pardonable pride, and the world would
be better of if there was more OF IL, Tor
when the aged make themselves attractive TO
others they are more certain to win ana re-
tain the esteem and respect to which
burthen of welLspent years entities them.
Try Halls Hair Renewer if age or disease
has thinned or whitened your locks and You
will thank us for our adYice.-Pap- Handle
