all of you, and enjoy it.
Mr.. Ell. M. Corsbie is moving from

The Methodist church being closed
last Sunday, quite number attended

Mrs. Witcher has lost baby about
pine months old from Group. They
had to telegraph the minister, he being
away attending court as a witness on
suit for damages. We hear that a
man (?) became so drunk that he could
not walk, SO he fell down and broke a
bone and sued the town for damages.
Well, the town ought to pay. If they
license the sale of drink, they ought
to pay the piper. Had there been no
saloon that man would not have been
drunk, and if he had been sober he
would not have broke bone. You
see causes are strung together for all
the world like string of sausages.
The family of Mr.. Charles Whitcher
has been severely afflicted by the death

have the sympathy of their many
friends.

|countenance of our friend, Wells Cur
