Greer POst.Omce.

4 new post office has been established ct Greer precinct, this county, with Mrs. Hannah M. Wiitbank as postmis- tress. As some of our readers may not know where Greer is-and we have heard the inquiry repeatedly made as to its location-We would say that Greer precinct is what was formerly known as Lee Valley" The locality has been rechristened in honor of the late A. V. Greer, Esq, who was a pio- neer and prominent citizen of the southern part of this county. The 10. cation of Greer settlement is in one of the most beautiful valleys in the coun- try, rivahng any of the hooks or cor ners in the Adirondacks, of New York. and tue people of the neighborhood are as clever and hospitable as are to be found anywhere. If attractive sur roundings, beautiful scenery and pleas ant neighbors count for anything. Cheer precinct will become quite large vll- lage.
