Coal Discovered at Hubbardston

AS a result of Investigations made by
a Chicago in the vicinity of Hubbard
ston last week, coal was discovered in
great abundance on the farm of Arthur
Corey west of that village, also in or
near the mill pond at Hubbardston.
At u public meeting held in that viii
lage one night recently, the sum of $500
was subscribed TO aid in carrying on
the Investigations. In speaking OF the
find the Pewamo News says:
perhaps it may come as great sur
prise to many that coal has been dis
covered within three miles of this viii
lage, which experts say discounts by
far the quality of coal found in Ohio
and Pennsylvania. Excitement runs
high in Hubbsrdston, for with a rail-
road and extensive coal mines she will
be one of the best towns in Ionia coun-
ty."-Maple Rapids Dispatch.
