Crawford avalanche. (Grayling, Mich.) 1879-19??, 1885-02-05

Archie Dixon, of Frederic, who has
been a patient at the Hospital, for the
last three weeks--suffering from inha-
mation Of the bowels, has entirely re-
covered, and viii be discharged on
Friday.
j. ]. Higgins, Of Frederic, was fined
and costed last week, for punching the
snoot of gay and festive youth from
the Dominion of Canada. If all who
have suffered by his besetting sin were
to punch him, it would keep the JUS
tice busy, for his victims are many.
The passenger train on last Monday,
came near making hash of yoke of
cattle and their owner, Truman Heath.
The road was drifted full of snow and
he was following the railroad track. 1t
is likely that he will keep off of it in
the future.
1t is said he don't sing the following
stanza, SO much as he did since his wife
came home from her visit:
Il miss you, my darling, my darling;
The embers burn low on the hearth. '
Yes it's an awful thing not to have a
wife to attend to the fires.
r. Hanson, speaks very highly of
the display made at New Orleans by
the different states, with the exception
of our own. He enjoyed the trip, saw
innumerable sights, and had a good
time generally, while there, but caught
Il bad cold on his way home.
He put on the roller skates at seven,
And before the clock sounded eleven,
His feet they were flying,
As if they were trying
10 kick the blue dome out of heaven.
The Northern Tribune, of the 29th
inst, says: The body of man named
Leblanc was brought down on the
train this morning, He froze to death
near Seney, When found the body

be some division of the time here, so
that silks and mackinaws would not
appear on the floor at the same time.
The contrast is too great.
Christopher Hanson, who held a
ticket in the Bay City Hospital, but
who preferred the Grayling City Hospi-
al, instead of going there, has entire
y recovered, and been discharged.
The Northern Independent says: 1t
) very likely that law will be passed
his winter forbidding the running of
leer with hounds. This will be good
hing for the settlers of this northern
ountry, a good thing for the deer,
nd also good thing for the dogs.
',He was not carried TO the skies
While others sought to win the prize
And sailed through bloody seas,
Nor did he get on the gospel train
Too high he thought the rates

Twas via roller skates"

The Bay city Tribune, says: "The
OF! well will be operated
] the spring, says a gentleman from
nat place" 1t is our opinion that
will not stand another :
saction never set IA, and the town
as collapsed. Rats forsake sinking
hip, but Bay City's gain may be no +,
,ss to Roscommon.
