Mound, Iowa, and Mrs. Matte Bey, OF this
vicinity, were married at the home of the
brides sister, Mrs. Cynthis Campbell, by
Ray. VIM. Day, of New Athens, Ohio, on

could not but prove pleasant and enjoyable

and 1essrs. Robert and Vincent Campbell
Spsfe 40 effort to entertain their friends in the
most Iospltable manner, and in the best style.

MIR. AND Mrs. JosEPH CULBURTsoN, OF this
town, received the sad intelligence of the
death of their son, W. 5. Culbertson, ESQ.,, of
Cincinnati, which occurred on Tuesday, the
9th inst, at 9 o'clock p. m. The news was
very sudden and startling, as no notice had
been previously received of his sickness.
His manner was very pleasant, and he was
man of intelligence and skill in his profession.
He served in the U. 5. Navy during the war
OF The rebellion and received honorable pro>
motion fer mis- bravery and faithfulness to
duty. During action he was struck by por-
ton of shell which carried away one>half Of q
memorandum inclosing some money and leav-
ing the other half in his breast pocket, but he
miraculously escaped injury. He was mar
ried to Miss Sadie Beers, one of the hands
soonest ladies of the city and7of the highest
social position, and she, with her two little
girls Oracle and Hattie, are left TO mourn
the l0ss of loving husband and kind and
sffectionate father. The. fullest sympathy is
extended.
II WAS our good fortune to meet with that
"prince of good fellows" w. s. Barton, son
of tho distinguished Judge Barton, of Coler-
ain, at their railway station, on Saturday last.
W. S. always ''comes up smiling," and re-
ceives hearty greeting from his many friends.
He is just tine man for the Democratic party
to nominate for some important Office in our
state or county, and if he don't run, it will
be on account of the hopeless minority of the
party which he represents.
DIR BENZ. Lopez moved many years ago
into this state. from Maryland and located on
the farm where MIR. Henry Pickering now re
sides, near East Richland. Ohio. After pay
ing for the transportation of his goods from
Wheeling, he had but fifty cents remaining,
and which bore date of 1917. This coin he
kept for thirty wears, and then gave it to his
son, Mr.. Joseph LOper, now residing at
Louisville. He kept it also thirty years, and
about two years since transferred it to the
keeping of his son, Benz, M. Loper, ESQ.,, of
that vicinity. He is but the representative of
his father and grand father in regard to his
kind hospitality and honorable record, aid
We trust that this coin will only be one of the
thousands of which we wish him possession.
