Marrow Escape.

Tuesday evening Henry Wolf,
the barber, and young David and
Fred McCutcheon crossed the Ohio
river to Georges creek, to have an
'opossum hunt, having two hounds
with them. On their return after
midnight, in crossing the river,
they discovered that their boat,
which was small one, was taking
water rapidly, and about to sink,
and they threw overheard the two
hounds, which lightened the boat
enough to let them reach the shore.
1t was narrow escape for them,
for had the boat sunk, they would
undoubtedly have been drowned.

you can not get a better price for it !
Ans AS there is no difference
In the price the public viii buy
