The firm of Harris & Parkinson
dissolved this week, +. II. Parkinson
going out of business. The Harris
make of wagons, carriages, buggles,
ETC., is well known and since coming
to Yale Mr.. Harris has had no reason
! to regret his removal here. The town
also has been benefited by his COM
ing. The large brick shops have been
erected and several families have been
added to the population, causing a
demand for more houses. We trust
Mr.. Harris business will still further
increase and bring him all success.

our legislative representative, will prob

The weather this week has been
somewhat variable and more like
! spring or fall than so late IN the
winter. Quite an amount of rain has
fallen which has softened the ground
and filled the empty cisterns. Several
| fiurries of snow have occurred, max
ing the ground white for few min
utes when it would all be soaked away.
| Tuesday evening the clouds cleared
away and as beautiful an evening as
one would wish to see ensued, the
moon and stars shining in all their
radiance. Wednesday morning people
woke up with a dreary sense of an
other gloomy day, rain and snow fall

get good, heavy snow storm for n
Christmas present, when we could
hear the sleigh bells jingle and every
thing gay and lively. The weather
seems now a fitting accompaniment to
the sad scenes this place has lately
witnessed.

business for nearly twenty years, be-
ing well known, well liked and always
