John Quirolo, the ten year old boy
who cut an artery above the wrist with
a broken bottle couple of weeks ago,
had to call surgical aid Sunday, owing
to fresh outbreak of hemorrhage. 1t
seems that in the first place no doctor
was called in, but the bleeding, which
was very great, was fiually controlled,
by the use of simple remedies. The
victim was much weakened by the loss
of blood. On regaining strength, the
wound opened afresh, and uecessitated
the services of a surgeon to secure the
artery and stay the effusiOn of blood.
1t was rumored that another livery
stable is to be started in Jackson soon.
Barney O'Neill has been negotiating
for the purchase of the Enterprise
stable from G. NJ. Kelley, that if an
agreement could be reached it was said
a new livery stable was likely to be start
ed in the Brown building at the north
end of Main street. The truth seems
to be that Mr.. O'Neill has arranged
for the purchase of the Enterprise
stable buildings. Mr.. Kelley's lease
runs for nearly three years yet. It is
not improbable that terms will be ar
ranged for the disposal of the business
to the purchaser of the real estate.
Mrs. Della Leonard died at her resi-
dence on Broadway, Jackson, on Fri
day evening, after long illness. She
had been ailing from the infirmities OF
extreme old age for long time, and
death came more from the exhaustion
OF the vital forces, incident to the
weight of years, than any particular
disease. Mrs. Leonard has been resi-
dent of the county since early days.
The family lived at Kennedy fat for
many years, where her husband died a
number of years ago. Four children

John Leonard, resident OF Folsom.
