ice. After investigating the ''true inward
ness" of this matter, the Messenger desires
TO freely and fully retract any insinuatons it
may have contained rejecting adversely on
Paw Paw as village, or on the county
officials present and past, who reside at the
county seat. We are fully satisfied that they
ought to be exonerated from any imputation
of malice towards South Haven in the matter

Last Sunday a youth bathing in Lake
Michigan, near Hagar Station, found the
body OF middle aged man floating around
in the water. Justice Ruggles was immedi-
ately called and an inquest was held. The
drowned man was apparently a gentleman,
was nicely dressed, and had on his person a
valuable gold watch and revolver. Nothing
was found to establish his identity, or to
show where he came from. or what the cir
cumstances of his death might have been.
He may have friends and relatives not far
away now patiently awaiting his return, and
they may never know of his death. The I'M
certainties of life are scarcely realized ex-
cept on such occasions as this. The
unknown man-somebody's brother, perhaps
husband or father,-now sleeps in the grave
yard at Hagar, and the world moves heed
