Bloomington Record Mrs. DR..
MARROW Of Lancaster accompanied, by
Vern NARROW, OF Riehland Center and
his young sister Of Hurricane, was in
this village Friday Mrs Hite Of
this village died Saturday noon. She
had been in poor health for long time
and the end was not wholly unex-
pected. She leaves four children to
to mourn her demise The Fcnni-
more Times-Rcyeiw Of last week, in
commenting on Mr.. Flynn going to
Spencer, Iowa, to build a railroad for
the second or third time gives its
readers the impression that with that
gentleman goes all hope Of ever hay-
ing a railroad here. In the first place
Mr.. Flynn has not moved his family
from here and he intends to return
when he finishes his work there, and
in the second the prospect Of railroad
for Bloomington was never better.
And we might add that Z. Flynn Of
Bloomington viii build that road.
The editor Of the Times Review makes
assertions about this matter Of which
he knows nothing. We cannot see in
what way railroad or no railroad will
affect Fennimore or its paper. and we
think the Times Reyesw could be in
better business than knocking a.
gainst our village and our hopes for a
railroad
