The Forest Republican. [volume] (Tionesta, Pa.) 1869-1952, 1888-04-25

We missed our old friend b. b. Nc.
Clure who accepted position with a
lumber firm farther East some time
last fall. We learn from friends to
whom he has written since that he is
prospering finely as he no doubt de-
serves.
We met Mr.. Gildersleeve, book.

Miss Colby from the school room to

We are reminded just here that in
the year past not less thau-let's see,
one, two, three, fo--, well, probably
ten, of the teachers OF Forest county
have been welded. And only 60

But then you'd oughto sent notice
TO the REPUBLICAN so that your old
friend, the Tramp, would ha' known
it, and been glad at your good fortune.
Don't forget next time. We'd drink
a health to each of you separately, but
we fain would believe our work not
all done yet on this side the dark river.
But here's to you all: Imagine us
drinking your healths in bright crys.

field are in the butcberipg business,
They have opened a market and also
run a wagon.
We met A. P. Anderson, hale and
hearty as usual, also.
The Tanning Company are building
a large dry house near the station, and
will build ten family dwelling houses
for employees this summer. The rent
for houses is nominal-$1 so to 50 per
month; gas 81 90 per month for fuel,
and 25c. for light.
We met our old friend G. B. Haight
of Watson's. He reports business out
there quite brisk; the saw mill there
and the shingle mill both running.
Down on the extension of the T. V.
r. r. the mill business seems brisk.
The mill at Ferndale was burned last
Fall, but was afterward rebuilt.
There is the Pebble Dell mill, the
Ferndale mill, Healy's mill, and w.
E. Browne at Duhrings, all running.
A young man by the name of Mac.
Auallen was caught in log jam at
Ferndale and crushed to death not
long ago. This is the man reported
as drowned at Browns in your last
weeks paper. Browns is on Spring
Creek, only 8 miles from the mouth of
the same, where it empties into the
Clarion 16 miles above Clarington.
At Saybrook we met Miss Flora
Kelly, who formerly taught school in
a number of places in Forest county.
Miss Kelly has taught for 8 consecu.
tive terms at SaybroUk quite a com.
pliment, we'll deserved.
We had the pleasure to see the in.
side of the school house at Sheffield.
The rooms are large and the ceilings
high. The assembly room is especially
pleasant. Mr.. Miller is the principal,
and has had a successful! year along
with his four assistants, all well quail
6ed lady teachers.
But the moons gone down, and
we'll have to quit for the present.
