The new pension law, which allows
pension to all veterans of the civil war
over the age of 62 has caused rush of
these faithful old citizens who have here
tofoIe been prevented from securing q
pension. One old soldier said that he

secure pension before, and now that he
is past seventy years of age, and still able

On last Friday night about 1880
o'clock, Esquire G. II. Wilton very un-
fortunately slipped and fell on the pave
ment opposite the Star Grocery breaking
both bones in his right leg just above the
ankle. He was taken to his home and
DIR. S. G. Beatty called and reduced the
fracture. The accident is extremely sad.
The nature of the break, with the 'Squire's
age, make more serious one than if he
was younger man. We trust, however,
that he may get along we'll and that it
may not cripple him. Marienville ES-
