was, as wa said it would be, on very
interesting subject. The subject was:
"What Is Religion~ The reverend

During the last two weeks large
number Of friends Of MFR. Chas. E. Allen
have waited on that gentleman TO get
him to become a candidate for Town
Clerk, promising him their entire sup
port, which is quite large. Mr.. ALLEN
was at first reluctant, but has, placed
himself at his friends disposal, and is
now candidate for that position. Mr..
Allen would make good clerk if elect
ed. He was clerk when the town
was first Incorporated, serving two
years, if net three, during which time
\ he fulfilled his position in manner that
was gratifying to Council and the citi-
zens at large, and all the compensation
he received (he never asked any was $25
for his services Now that a salary is
paid for the service we believe that Mr..
Allen should be elected. Besides, Mr..
Allen is a clerk in the CampbelI County
Circuit, Court and possesses information
that was valuable to the town before and
will be again. ..
