Walter Pngsley died at his home near
New Vienna last Sunday, after long
and painful illness. He was an old resi-
dent OF this county and was identified
with its farming interests and Is conse-
quently widely known to our people.
He was born In New York State in the
month of January, 1923, and removed
township, this county, in 1887 In 1852
he was united in marriage to Miss Ruth
Kirby, daughter Of DR.. Kirby, OF this

GREENFIELD.
August 9th, 1888


Born-To Mr.. and Mrs. Robert Strider,
ten.pound boy.
About ten o'clock last Friday night
Mr.. @. @. Boyd, while crossing the pike
bridge on the CIV. & B. r. R., was held
up by two men. His clothing was bad.
ly torn and cut, but he escaped without
injury, and with S2.25, all the money he
had with him, which they failed to find.
Mr.. Chas. McCann, of Cincinnati, Wis.
tied friends and relatives here during
the fair.
We have heard OF not less than doz-
en- farm houses that were broken into
last week, and clothing and valuables
taken.
The Greenfield Brass Band has been
engaged to furnish music for the Spargur
Reunion on the 18th of this month.
Never before were thieves and tough
characters of all kinds so plentiful as
during the past week. The town and
surrounding country seemed to be full OF
them, who were lying in wait to steal
something and run. We have heard Of
several fine watches being stolen on the
grounds, and pockets were picked at the
depots. Our neighbors should take
warning and be ready for such chaps.
Our fair last week proved success
both in attendance and financially, and
the Board will undoubtedly have quite
snug sum of money left after paying
all indebtedness. The number Of fast
horses far exceeded that of any previous
year. Every stall was taken up, and
some forty or fifty new ones were erect
ed to accommodate the horses as they
came in, there being nearly two hund-
red in all, from all parts OF the country.
The races were fine and well managed,
considering the number OF entries and
the large number on the track in each
race. The first race took place Wednes.
day, and from that time until darkness
Friday evening the track was continually
occupied. Thousands OF people gather
ed around the ring to witness the races,
and all seemed to enjoy them greatly.
A great deal Of betting was indulged in
by outside parties, and large amounts OF
money were seen to change hands. The
display OF cattle was fine, and attracted
great deal of attention, as also did the
hogs, sheep and poultry, which were OF
the highest grades. The balloon ascen-
sion and parachute descension by Prof.
II. +. Vandegraft was decided success.
Nothing OF the kind could have been
done more perfect and graceful, as every
thing worked smoothly and his descent
of several thousand teet was made in
perfect safety, landing in an open field
about quarter OF a milo west OF the fair
grounds, the balloon landing q few min
utes later in the same field.
Mr.. and Mrs. David Binder, of Mt.
Sterling, spent fair week here with rela.
tives.
Miss Lizzie Sargent, of Columbus,
spent last week here visiting DIR. and
Mrs. W. III. Wilson.

Our readers have doubtless often
noticed that Hoods sarsaparilla is well
spoken OF in the newspapers. The press
is quick to recognize merit, and does not
hesitate to give praise where it is due.
The following is from the Baptist Weekly,
a leading religious paper: advertising
may bring an article prominently before
the public, but no advertising can long
help it il it has not real merit. Hoods
Sarsaparilla is well advertised; but the
best proof of its value is that so many
persons use it on the recommendation
of friends who have proved its peculiar
virtues"

Moses r. Ketterman, one of our most
highly esteemed and honorcd citizens,
died at his home about two miles west
OF Fincastle, Brown county, o., July 25,
1888, aged As years, 2months and days.
He had been afflicted since early in the
present year.
Brother Ketterman was an honored
citizen, as was fully attested by the
large number Of friends who gathered to
show their respect and love for this
dear brother. Truly as citizen he will
be greatly missed among us. He had
bcen member of the church since he
was quite young, and was very actively
engaged in Christian work, discharging
double duty during the past few years
as an officer in the church, assisting in
Sunday school and church both at Fin
castle and Ketterman. The funeral
services were held at the Fin
castle U. B. Church, conducted by Rev.
7. L. Haas, assisted by Revs. Cummings,
Bateson and Stiers. The orders OF the
/. o. o. T. and the X. OF P. were present
and took part in the services. Sister
Ketterman and two daughters have our
sympathy and prayers in their great
bereavement. Roy lie.
