violent personal attack upon me, in
which he accuses me of ingratitudc
to him, of becoming party to a cor

attack is wholly uncalled for, and
places me in an unfavorable light be-
fore the people of Shiawassee county

The above mentioned wedding
took place at the residence of Mr..

very pleasant gathering of about
fifty people. Under tastily arranged
arch, surrounded by banks of flowers,
the young couple entered into the
new and solemn relations. The
friends who had gathered, as we'll as
many who were not permitted to be

their affectionate regard by mrny

some notes, when the gentlemanly
voice of the Bridegroom announced
that they wyuld prefer not to have

his modesty. But it was fine and

After an excellent wedding supper

some FACTS ABOUT THE KNABE
PIANos.-These pianos have estab.
lished their excellence in every com.
munity where they have been intro
duced, and the most eminent per-
formers have given them the most un.
qualified approval. Their apprecia-
ton, however, is not confined to the
class known as professional artists, but
they are as highly priced in the par
lor as in the school-room or upon the
stage. The fact is they are as perfect
as any instruments of the kind tina,
have yet been made, and possess
many qualities which strike the crit
cal ear as superior to all other pianos
This is the whole secret of their grea
popularity and the high appreciation
in which they are held by both anna
teurs and professionals.
