1t may be said, however, that Chapman

MessrS. J. S. Ford and E. Keller, of
Newbern, gave the REFLECTOR Soc
ial call last Saturday. Mr. Keller wants
to try a little of the REFLECTORS' anti
monopoly and instructive reading mat
tel, and if he likes it he will take larger
dose. He's on the right road, and the
REFLECTORS' tOw-line will try to keep
him in the path that leads to political
happiness and prosperity.
On Friday morning last W. II. II.
Bonebrake was suddenly called to his
former home in South Bend, Ind, by
telegram conveying the sad intelligence
of the death of an elder and only broth
er, Elijah Bonebrake. Mr.. BOnebrake
received a severe injury some time since
from falling timber but was considered
to be out of danger and in fair way to
a speedy recovery. This affection falls
the more heavily upon the family fol-
lowing as it does closely upon the death
of sister, which occurred some few
months since.
