issue of last week over the signature of "W."
| the following statement: Mr. Isaac Shaver

for about forty years, gave an oyster supper in
| Rayville Hall last Saturday afternoon and eve
ming. Proceeds to be used in giving bis
scholars their annual Christmas treat" IF
only the signature had been II, )" which, in
this case would have been construed to mean
| "Ignoramus,'' / would not have given it a
| passing notice. but as we understand it to
mean "Watchful," l feel it is but justice to
the party charged in the above statement to
| denounce it as an unqualified falsehood.
In the first place, the principal of the school
in question has been here but twenty one years.
Secondly, the teachers of the school placed in
| the hands of Mr.. Frank r Shauck. treasurer,
check which covered the whole amount
named upon the tickets given by the teachers
| to the pupils,a fact 10 which the treasurer will
testify. Not one cent of the proceeds was used
/ for the purpose thus charged by w." but will
| be used for the benefit of said school.
| 1t is evident that the spirit which prompted
the writer to make such charge is one of
maicousness and it is hoped is not possessed
by anyone training our youth.
