| Judge SiIas II. Wright visited
our town last week. 1t had been
some years since he called at tho
houses of his old time friends in the
western townships, and as he de-
lights in seeing the ripe wheat
falling before the keen blade of the
reaper and rejoicc with the farme,
IN the prospect of sa abundant har.
vest, it was q fitting time to make
the visit.
The Sentinel had sasle business
in the western townships. The
price of the paper had been reduced
and the old subscriber and the new
one should be informed. Accord
ingly the Judge and the Parson
started out Wednesday, and wi h a
spanking team of trotters from the
stable of jeff Cline, were soon on
the farm of Mr.. John Keller. That
gentleman, sight is evidently fa' :
ing, for in the distance he took us
for wool buyers, aud had his story
already prepared that the clip had
been disposed of. As we nearei,
however, he discovered his mistake.
and met us on the road with a
cheerful greeting. and placed at the
disposal of the Sentinel the whole
side of a barn, and assisted in stick
ing up the posters. A half hours
chat, and we were off for Ewing.
Here VIC met a number of old Dem.
ocrats. Mr.. E. 6. Martin was in
his shops, which he keeps as neat
and clean as preachers sanctum.
He is blacksmith. Squire and Post
master, and is successful and well
liked IN all three occupations. He
is obliging, talkatlve and jovial.
and is the right man in the right
place. We found Frank Gordon
whitewasliine, scrubbing and doing
other domestic works. lie is a
handy man about the house, and his
good wife no doubts thinks him a
"duck of husband" The Conk-
els, Bnwens, Engles. Bensenhavers,
and others, who We would have de
lighted to see, were rushing the
work in the harvest fields, and af-
ter attending to the "bili sticking"
par: of the program, ;we FASTENED
to Ilesboro. There is very little
stir in these villages just now, as
al able bodied persons are in the
fields. We met Mr.. Jim Harden,
who is also blacksmith and Post
master, and were kindly greeted
with cheering words for the old es
tablished organ of the party. Mr.
Harden has our thanks tor his kind
attentions. Mr.. Parker Marshal is
the store-Eeener, and has good
stock of everything kept in a coun-
try store. Being an experienced
Shoe maker, and plenty of work,
his time is fully occupied.
From Ilesboro, we next visited
Mr.. Daniel Schaal, and as that
sturdy farmer was ind;sposed. we
found him at his home. He is a
very entertaining talker and gave
US lots of encouragement, besides
finding out all we knew about the
management of our Irfrmary.
There is deep feeling of indigna-
ton among the farmers who Con
tribute to the support of this insti-
tuition against its cruel, heartless
management, and there is but one
and that is "turn the I
rascal cut" If Dan Nixon should +
visit the western portion of the !
county he would meet cold recep-
lion, and as decayeI hen fruit is
