The Forest Republican. [volume] (Tionesta, Pa.) 1869-1952, 1883-11-07

"A happy occasion was that on
last Thursday evening when the ma
ny friends of Mr. and Mrs. w. w.
Grove assembled at their residence to
assist in the celebration of their tenth
wedding anniversary. When the ap-
pointed hour arrived the guests began
to assemble and by nire o'clock the
house was filled with happy friends
all bent on having real jolly time,
and if we are to take their words Tor
it all enjoyed themselves to the full
est extent. The refreshments that
were served we're most delicious and
would tickle the palate of the finest
Epicurian cast The display of pres
ents was very fine, and the collection
embraced nearly everything in the
line Of tinware, and while it was large,
it had scarcely two articles alike,
strange to say. At a late hour the
happy guests dispersed wishing their
pleasant host and hostess many years
more Of peaceful, prosperous and hap.
py married life.

ciaI Gazette Of Saturday last we get
the following item : On Friday morn
4
ing Mr.. j. I. Duun, of Gusher City,
Forest county, Pa, was sitting in II
room adjoining the shoemaker shop
where young man by the name of
Custeller accidentally discharged u
shotgun through the board partition
hitting Mr.. Dunn fair in the face
and eyes, stunning and instantly
binding him. Great excitement pre-.
vailed for ime, physicians we're
called in from several towns around.
Yesterday he was brought to this city
examined by DR.. Sadler, who found
two No. 10 shot had penetrated the
left eye, and one the right. There is
no hope of restoring any sight. His
face and eneck also bear numerous
shotimarks, and it is wonder he es-
capped with his life.
Alas for the man, thinks the
Forest and Stream, who loveth not,
nor is beloved by dog. Let all
! good men and all good dogs avoid
him, for there is something amiss with
his head ,.or his heart, or with both.
1t is the fashion with some agricsl.
turists, perhaps those who plough
paper more than soil, to rail against
the dog as the farmers enemy-but
we have found that most real farmers
count good dogs as goou friends, and
value them accordingly. Indeed, we
know one farmer who thinks it pays
to keep "yaller dog" for the sake of
having something to kick when he gets
mad. And the "yaller dog" loves
him.
Fred Bussinger, night watchman
for Cunningham & Co., in New Castle,
is the hero of several serious accidents
In 1854 he fell from the third floor
to the cellar, distance of fifty feet
and broke every rib on his right side
but one. In 1869 he fell a distance
offorty five feet breaking his left arm
in four places and crushing in his left
side. In 1865 his right arm was brok'
en- near the shoulder. In 1874 be had
three ribs on his left side broken. OF
other little accidents, such as being
shot, carved, kicked, etc., they are toe
numerous to be mentioned.
EDMUND KIRK opposes the idea Of
giving an education to the negroes oi
the south because be thinks that if lifts
them above their condition aud makes
them dissatisfied. Edmund is one OF
} those chaps who would be of much
more service to the world in the ca
pacity of a grease spot.-BtizzGrd
