R. A. Handy is back from Colo
RADIO Springs where he had been
called on account of the sudden death
of a brother-in-law, Frank Brown.

written to his wife were dated April

ceived a letter from Mrs. Stevenson,
who represented that she was widow
with one child. AS matters progressed
she confessed she had two, and at

stantly increasing family, but sent
his lady.love who lived in Baltimore.

lily west. She came here about three
weeks ago, and Aumer was delighted
and fastened to town for a license.
