A certain young gentleman of our place
was noticed one night this week, taking
a onIet st roll about 10 80 o'clock from the
Shenandoah cigar factory towards the
depot. He was minus all clothes but his
sleeping apparel, pair of slippers hat aud

Young ladies declares it was only his
ghost but we arc inclined TO believe
otherwise.
Our village aud neighborhood was
visited on last Saturday and Sunday
even ings by severe rain and wind storms.
The storms laid trees to tho ground and
lodged wheat in every direction. This IN
connection with the continual ram for tie
past - days has kept farmers from max
ing hay, or blowing corn. They are very
much worried about harvest, especially
those who have heavy binders. We forgot
TO mention that the storm was so terrific
on Sunday night that it blew young
gentlemans heel plate from his boot, as
his young lady found it the next morning
On last Sunday night Mr. Samuel j.

Headley, while returning to the home oil

church, were caught on the road wi eh

Bauserman, by the rain storm. 1t being a
very dark and narrow place the horse they
were driving missed the road, landing cart
horse and occupants down the bank OF the
river, being stopped from going into the
river only by and old tree top. We are
clad to say neither Mr.. Shaver or his
lady friend W ere injured. The only dam
AGED did was the harness being torn and
cut in extrlcating the horse. We
would adv Use Samuel in the future until
he becomes better acquainted withe road
