ROBBED A SAFE.

A most daring and mysterious
robbery was perpetrated in Danville
Monday, when thief or thieves in
broad daylight entered the Office of
Attorney Charles V. Amerman and
breaking open the drawers of his
safe stole therefrom twenty-five
dollars.
The robbery took place between
IL and I o'clock while Mr.. Amer
man was at dinner. His office
door, it appears, was not locked,
neither was the door of the safe,
although the drawers inside were
carefully locked.
The money belonged to Sunday
school, of which Mr.. zimmerman is
tie treasurer. There is no clue to
the robbery.

misused. The original long distance
run which was performed by a
Greek in the fifth century of the

MEMORIES OF EXCHANGE.
Col. Freezes Recolleciions OF Early Days.

An article appeared in the DAN
vile Morning Meas recently about
barn raising at Exchange, Mon
tour county. 1t called forth letter
from our townsman, Col. Freeze,
which is printed below. William
c. Johnston who is spoken Of, was
for many years the Register and
Recorder of Montour county, and
was widely known all through
this section.
The letter is as follows:
To The Morning News,
Danville, Penn'a,
Dear Sir
Going into the Office of the
Bloomsbury Columbian as l often
do, I picked up the Danville Morn
ing News as l often do. and my
eye lit upon Exchange" and the
barn raising on an historic spot.
Considering that l lived at Ex-
change many years. many years
ago, both at the mill and the hotel,
you will not be surprised that l
was interested in the event men
toned.
The Darn raising, however, was
not the principal matter that inter-
ested ME in the reminiscent article,
although the heading first called
my attention. My father kept the
hotel at one time, and Joseph
Levers, father o. Amandus Levers,
subsequently treasurer OF the
county, kept the store.
But your reference to William
c. Johnston was what most stirred
my personal feelings.
When l was the boy am speak
ing of, William c. Johnston kept
school in an old log school house
near the bank of the Chillisquaque
creek, under the shade of great
oak tree. / went to school to him
tor several quarters and a good
school master of the old kind he
was, too. Some years after that in
the course OF human events found
myself in the Academy at Danville
with William c. Johnston under
the tuition of +. w. Conkling.
After we completed our academic
terms Mr.. Johnston went into the
Office of John Cooper to read law,
and about the same time l went
into the office of Joshua w. Comfy.
We finished our legal courses and
by that time the seat of justice had
been removed to Bloomsbury and
we went there to be examined for
admission to the bar.
Judge Anthony was on the
bench. He gave us each COM
mittee, but the committees met
together in the judges room and
we appeared before them and
underwent the torture. We were
passed and certified and admitted
together, side by side, on the 10Th
day of April, IS4S.
