Substantial Gratitude.

Our saved sister, with a heart full
of gratitude, remembers her deliv-
erer. esterday evening, Mr..
O. L. Davis, on behalf of the
grateful and generous citizens OF
Belpre, came over and handed to
Mr.. A. N. Williams, Chief of the
Parkersburg Fire Department, q
check for ($250) two hundred and
fifty dollars.
This will repay all damages in
loss of hose, &c, and leave hand
some sum for the boys who worked
SO bravely and well to save our
neighboring town from destruc-
ton.
1t was the right thing for our
people to rush to the relief of Bel
pre-; it was happy and handsome
display of gratitude that Belpre
showed SO cheerfully and prompt
ly. Now let our boys replace their
hose and invite Belpre over to a
big supper on the balance.

Archie Rutherford Drowned.

The entire community about Pc
troleum was thrown into the deep
est sorrow last Wednesday by the
drowning of Mr., Archie Ruther-
ford, son Of George Rutherford, Esq.
He was at work about some logs
in Goose creek. 1t is supposed
that in pushing against the raft his
pole broke, letting him fall with his
head against the logs, a bruise on
the head leading to this opinion.
His body was grappled from the
bed of the creek late in the evening
after being missed.
Archie Rutherford was a most
exemplary young man and was
held in the highest esteem by the
entire community. So deeply was
his loss felt that all the business
houses of Petroleum were closed on
the day of his funeral.
