was taken at once to the hospital and

We doubt if Thos. Ball will ever get
through building houses-at least we
believe he will keep at it as long as
he is on earth. Monday Mr.. Ball
commenced the erection of his sixty

plenty of instances where people
would come to Mitchell if they could
but find a place to live.
