A Brief Farewell.

has seen, and he believes, aided
the up-building of the town and
surrounding country, his aim ever
having been to work Tor that
which he believed would be most
beneficial to the majority of those
with whom his lot was cast.
When the Herald was first issued
it was taken to Swan Lake post
Office to be mailed, as Hurley had
rot received one of those neces-
sary adjuncts to civilization. The
town has grown, however, until
we now have one of the incest
and most enterprising cities of its
class in the state, surrounded by
a class of farmers who are e11er-
getlc and enterprising and are
making their farm homes deslr-
able places to reside. All this
has the Herald witnessed. and
has rejoiced at the good times
which have come and for the bet
ter times which are to come.
To many of the people who
have made this progress the Her
aid has been a weekly visitor
and we believe a welcome one
Of course there have occasionally
been differences, but such things
usually pass quickly away ane
are forgotten, and each and every
one will remain dear in our mem
ory as we live over the years pass
ed as neighbors and friends, ant
in the prosperity of all we shall
ever rejoice.
The pleasant trips and outing
with the South Dakota Press AS
ISOLATION can never be forgotten
The twenty years of association
and friendships formed leave al
impress on the mind that canno
be obliterated during the few
short years of this life.
