Mr.. and Mrs. w. A. Masters left
on the morning train for West Unity
Ohio, where they will make their
home, called there by the aged and
enfeebled condition of her mother.
They are among our oldest citizens,
having resided here since 1879. Mr..
Masters has been an active factor in
the business and political life OF the
county. He was the founder of the
AVALANCHE, with Messrs Maurer and
Brown, was postmaster for q long
time, served four years as county
clerk, and was engaged In mercan Tile
pursuits until his retirement to his
farm a few years ago. Mrs. Masters
has ever been recognized as among
the foremost In charitable and re-
ligious work, and her lovely charac.
ter and social nature has made her a
universal favorite In the community.
There is probably no family in the
county with a larger circle OF &C
quaintances who will regret their
going and hope for their ultimate
return.
