On Sunday, May 18th Miss Bridget
Mahon, eldest daughter of Thos Mahon
of Libert~, was married to Thomas
Doyle of Sheboygan. Mr.. Doyle Is an
upright, intelligent young gentlemen
we'll known throughout Sheboygan
county, AID he has selected for his bride
a young lady of fine accomplishments
who Is in every respect worthy of her
happy choice. The young couple start
life with the best wishes of hosts of
friends for their future welfare, happi
ness and prosperity.
And now we haze to record the death
of Miss Ellen Cast, who fell victim to
that dread destroyer, consumption, on
Friday last. Miss Cast was about p
years of age possessed excellent qualities
OF head and heart, and was beloved ly
every one who formed her acquaintance.
In the midst of sorrowful relatives and
friends who surrounded her bedside.
size passed peaceably to better and
happier world. Her funeral which oc-
Cured on Sunday, was one of the largest
ever seen here, many coming from dis
lance to tender the last tribute of respect TO
one whom they loved so affectionately.
Her parents have the sympathy of the
entire community in their great grief.
Wheat is being hauled from the towns
of Mosel and Herman in Sheboygan
county to The Manitowoc market. This !
augurs poorly for the Shehoyaan wheat |

Manitowoc wheat buyers viii endeavor |
to explain By asserting that our wheat |
does not grade No. !, hard. Yet they
can t" 1.a where that grade is grown, or |
where it comes from. To these gentle. |
men we offer the opinion gratis, that il is |
grown right here, raised by every farmer
III Manitowoc county. The best spring |
wheat raised in the e. s. is raised in the
great northern wheat belt of which the
territory comprising the county of Mani |
towoc is the head and front, and no per-
son is acquainted with this fact better |
than the Manitowoe wheat buyers. I'M !
der the combination rule however these |
gentlemen can Siye what they chose for
The "sta1f Of life." II the Sheboygan |
buyers give less and we have reason to |
believe that they do-millstones should |
be tied around their necks and the whole |
''caboodle" Of them smothered in n bin
OF wheat which they grossly slandered
by calling it "No. ." and which thew
have unjustly wrung from the poor far
