WRIGHT-At his home in Wellington,
October 3lst, 1889, Peter s. Wright,
aged II years.
Mr.. Wright may be considered one
Of the old settlers, having come to Lo-
rain county more than fifty years ago,
where he has resided most Of the time
since. He first settled in Huntington
where he married the eldest daughter
of Reual Lang and made his home for
the next ten years. In 1880 he moved
to Oberlin where he lived for the next
twelve years. In 1872 he moved to
Vermontvilie, Mich, where he re-
mained till 1884, whsn he returned to
Ohio and settled in Wellington to care
for the aged parents Of Mrs. Wright.
Here he remained until his death,
which took place as above stated.
Mr.. Wright was veteran of the civil
war and an honored member Of the
Grand Army Post at Wellington. He
was an upright man, a good citizen
and kind neighbor, and in his death
the county has lost good citizen, and
his loss will be particularly felt by his
neighbors for whom he was constantly
performing acts Of kindness. He leaves
a widow and one daughter, besides a
largo circle OF relatives and friends to
mourn his loss.
His funeral took place at his late
residence in Wellington Thursday,
conducted by the Rev. Mr.. Sheldon of
the Congregational church, and the ex-
ercises at the grave were under the
direction Of the g. A. r. Post Of Well
ingtonI

FROM time to time it has been an
nounced that the commissioners Of
this county were about to take some
action in regard to the building OF
stone roads, and for which purpose
there are now some twenty-seven
thousand dollars Of taxes in the county
treasurery. And yet, nearly a year
has gone by since the good roads
movement was actively agitated in
the county, winter and bad roads are
almost here again, and little of moth
ing has been done. While reason
able amount Of deliberation is com,
mendable in SO important and expren-
sive and undertaking, yet after all, the
way to begin the building Of good
roads is to begin, and the people OF
Southern Lorain County will welcome
the day when the county commission
ers get their plans into working order
and actually begin the building OF
stone roads.

SULLIVAN,

Halloween was marked by the usual
amount Of festivities INDUCED in by the
younger element. Wires were stretch
ed across the sidewalks, sidewalks torn
up, fences moved and torn down, gates
opened, vehicles and machines moved
to the centre Of the road. Mr.. Howard
was out about midnight hunting his
milk wagon, which was "spOoked
away" While talking with one Of the
Hallowe'eners he had to sneeze; his
teeth few out, falling on the stone
pavement, breaking them. Itcost $3.50
to have them mended. That's the only
serious damage reported.

FORGOT THEIR NAMES.

Some years ago an old gentleman in
Huntington became insane, and among
the freaks of his disordered brain was
the following: He was very religious
and spent considerable time in prayer
for tae people in the neighborhood,
One day after a lengthy prayer he
arose from his knees, but remember
ing that he had forgotten some of those
he usually prayed for, he fell on knees
again, saying, Lord, / forgot to pray
for Father Sprague. Remember him
and all the people on the East road ;
you know their names better than do
Amen"

Stroup's was highly enjoyed by the

out on dress parade; the ghosts stalked
forth with due solemnity, while Punch
and Judy held high carnival as they
rioted in the cabbage, and the Jack-o-
lanterns shed a somber light over all,
and the witch on the broom" was
seen riding to the skies to sweep the
cob-webs from the moon. No rotten
apples were thrown, no cabbages were
gathered, no gates taken from hinges,
nor anything OF the kind done by our
young people. We think some other
young people will have to come to
River Corners to learn how to behave
with propriety
The good supper" at George Glars
Thursday evening did ample justice to
the epicurean applies OF the crowd
that gathered in spite Of threatening
showers. All did eat and were salts

LAUGHING is CATCHING"

The writer, when a boy, was going
from Ashland to Huntington on horse
back. His horse, not being very sure
footed, would frequently stumble and
nearly throw the rider of. Along the
same road trio Of young people we're
going in a buggy. Following their
lead, my horse stumbled and came
down on his knees, throwing his rider
on the neck Of the horse. The young
folks "a young man and two girls)
giggled and laughed at the exhibition,
l remarked that Laughing was catch
ing," and sure enough, before we had
gone a half mile one Of their front
wheels came of, throwing the whole
party out in mud hole. 1t was now
my turn to laugh. No one being hurt,
l laughed Justify, telling them again
that Laughing was catching" Leav-
ing them without smile, proceeded
on my journey.
