Patsy Framorek, who has been
employed by our iceman, George APP
plegate. who lives on Swan Hin, and
who has been living at the ice plant,
has left the employ of Mr.. Applegate;
the circumstances, as we learn them,
are, that 1t is quite a lonely place
down at the ice plant. MIR. Framorek
kept a large and ferocious dog, which
he generally kept chained, but one
day last week the dog broke his chain
and bit one of II. S. C~onover's daugh-
tiers, who was passing that way. The
consequence was the dog had to be
disposed of and Framorek refused to
live there any longer and as Mr.. APP
plegate is compelled to have some
one to live there to look after his in
terest, hence Framorek is looking
for a new job as well as a new house.
