the body.

THIS street forms the upper or
Western boundary of the Corpo
rate limits of the Town of Thibo

In 1879 the Branch Rail Road
was brought into town on this
street which was given to the
Railroad Company for that pur

used by pedestrians for that pur-
pose. The railroad company have
erected, at the head of Church
street one of the Deatest and most
comfortable depots to be found III

House presents quite an attrac

Church street the pedestrian will
notice two neat cottages built by
Mr.. Keller near the corner of
Clinton street.
Then comes the cemetery ofSt.

On the next block is now being
erected a frame building 24x5O
