omnibus business.
Morgan Messenger; The attend
ance at the Gilfillan sale last Mon
day was not what it was hoped it
would be. The day was one of the
cold, dismal kind. following the
rain Sunday afternoon and evening.
The sale started early, the machin-
cry being sold first This took
until after the lunch hour. Some of
it brought good price and some Of
it only ''song.' The horses and
mules we're all bid off at good prices.
The cattle likewise.
Thursday night was a superb
evening for an eclipse, and those
who were fortunate enough to be up
after ten O'Clock that evening saw a
total eclipse of the moon. The
eclipse commenced shortly before
that hour, and it was about l1:4O
when the eclipse was total and the
night was as dark as any starry
night could be. The shadow then
gradually passed off the face of the
moon, and at l:3O Friday morning
had disappeared entirely. 1t will
be another century or more before
the moon will be eclipsed again in
the same manner, and those who
witnessed the event of Friday night
saw a sight which they will long
remember.
