tirely away from Mrs. ]. Anderson, Pesitigo,

Shields, north of town, came near being
seriously injured. by being run over on
Sunday, by the team of John Jackson,
who was hurrying home from church in
answer to a summons that his wife was
taken suddenly and seriously ill. Fer

vile boy, brother of our townsmaD. Geo.
Jepson, Esq, at the annual meeting of
the West Virginia Medical Society, last
week at Charleston, was elected Presi-

OUR neighbor of the Gazette, who
purchased that paper about three years
ago, at the round price of $4,000, has been
struggling for some time with a mort
gage debt upon the paper of S2,666. Be-
ing unable to cancel his obligation to
Mr.. c. n. Gaumer, its former proprietor,
that gentleman instituted foreclosure
proceedings, and asked the court to ap-
point receiver for the paper. The mo-
ton was heard by Judge Kelly on Tues
day ,and denied. thus leaving Mr. Gaumer
to await the ordinary course of legal
procedure. Judge Kelly thought that
the claim of the plaintiff was in DO i'm
mediate danger of being lost 1t is hoped
that Mr.. Riley will be able to bridge
over his financial troubles, and save the
all invested. A little substantial aid
from those who have proited by his
investment is all that is necessary to en-.
able him to do this.
