Mr.. EDIToR:-The statement in the
Clarksboro items of the Paulsboro Press, of
July II, 1903, that "Howard Reed and
Miss Matte Dilks were married at Atlantic
City on Saturday last" is false. If the
writer hoped to coin joke by publishing
the item, he overlooked the fact that an
honorable young lady is the greatest suf-
ferer. H. R.

Last SATURDAYS Storm

The rain storm of Saturday last was I'M
usual in its severity for this season of the
year, and crops were much injured by the
great amount of water. Corn was beaten
down to an extent rarely seen except by
the wind, and wherever the land was low,
the fields were flooded.

MAsHour Ar poRcHTowN.

Probably the greatest damage in this
county was at Porchtown Mills, where
forty feet of the dam gave way under the
great pressure of water, carrying with it
twenty feet of the foundation of the mill.
The construction of the gates at this point
was such that they could not be raised and
the full force of the water was more than
the embankment could stand. The loss is
said to be about $1,000, which will prob
ably be divided between the township and
the owners of the mill property.
