Mason Hill Letter.

1t makes all the difference in the
world whose OK is gored.
A number of young men from a dis
tance attended church here on Sunday.
Supervisors Daugherty and Mix
looked over this part of the road on
Saturday.
G. w. Williams returned from Lock
Haven on Friday with fine span of
horses.
Omer Ives and Willie Miller took in
the sights at Medix Run the fore part
of the week.
Mrs. Miller was called to Medix Run
on Tuesday by the serious illness of
relatives.
Miss Lelo Williams and Madge Mil
Ter, of Huston Hill, visited friends
here the latter part of the week.
Mr.. M. Hill moved his family to Sin
nemahoning the fore part of the week.
The house vacated by Mr.. Hill will be
occupied by Chas. Connors.
We are informed that Mr.. O. B.
Tanner, while coming from Huntley
on Tuesday, on "long tailed rattler;'
was severely hurt while getting off at
Sterling.
Nose Carpenter in his communica-
tions to the Independent saws, Geo.
Huntley, Jr., is at his fathers home on
a visit. Mr.. Huntley thinks it is very
poor business for scribe to defend a
vlolator Of the laws of God and
humanity. Your smart correspondent
thought he would come to his right
mind after while.
A few more thoughts in regard to
that young man" mentioned few
weeks ago and 1 will stop. based
my article on the truth and only the
truth and the truth has touched a
tender spot in Mr.. English's armor.
That young man was neither SANDER
ed or misrepresented beyond his own
moral conduct and character, and if
he was why don't Mr.. English or the
one accused, bring the slanderer to
justice? We have laws if they were
put in force and my name will be found
at the bottom of that article at the
PRESS office. He said he was very
much surprised when he saw the arti-
Gle not having heard of any such
racket. 1t makes no difference whether
he heard it or not it happened Just the
same. Some people can be awful
deaf when they want to be. Joe L.
FARLEY while going over to Russelrs
heard the racket at Bailey's lane a
distance of ninety rods from the
school house, and stopped to see what
was the MATTER saw the accused and
went on about his business. like any
young man of common sense and good
breeding would do Mr.. English
also says when he saw the item he
took steps to seek the truth. If he
had been what he advertises himself
to be, he would not have run
the gauntlet on Sunday last, looking
for evidence, for no names were men
toned in my article. | said for the
benefit OF the community | would not
mention his name. 1t makes no diff
ference how mean q person is there is
always lots of people to uphold them
in their meanness AS for Walter Barr
being present, SO was I; we were both
connected with the entertainment.
In an interview with Walter on the
subject, he said he told the truth and
asks ''why Mr.. English didn't publish
all he told him H' The trouble is, En-
glish picked out the part he wanted
and threw the rest aside. Admitting
that there was little confusion in the
school room, yet, if the accused had
been where he should have been home)
everything would have been quiet in
the house, and as for telling lies, Mr.
English, (as a class-leader in the
church) had better see that his own
windows are well barred before throw
stones at his neighbors who, al
though, never wore the necklace of
truth, yet, has good moral standing
in the eyes of the people as he has
Now with brief summary will stop,
but if Mr.. English continues with his
self-vindication in this scrape l deem
I'll make it ''hot" 'nough for him.
Now Mr. editor, or gentle reader, if
you think L am telling anything
else but the truth | would simply
refer you to Miss Summerson who will
tell you the same as | have told; and
more, as | have forgot to mention any
thing about the incidents that happen
| ed the night the shutters were lifted
off the hinges and the teacher struck
in the eye with a snow ball.
April 4th. DING.
