Every farmer in this county, whether

We are very sorry TO note seKious i'll
ness that has seized upon William Kear-
fott. the youngest son of Mr.. and Mrs
VIM. II. Ksarfott and grandson OF John
P. Kearfott. Efq., of Kearneysville. A
couple of weeks ago Mr.. Kearfott return
ed from visit to relatives in New York,
and upon his way home stopped off in
Washington. At the latter place he
went swimming in the big bathing pool
of the Y. NJ c. A. building. and in diving
struck his head rather sever blow upon
the bottom of the tank. Upon his return
home he seemed to be indisposed, and
has since become much worse. having
become affected mentally, presumably
from an injury to his brain. Tuesday.
upon the advice of physicians, he was
taken to hospital near Baltimore for
treatment. We join with the many
friends of the family in the hope that he
may he fully restored to health. William
is a fine young man and has been one of
the hardest students and brightest young
men IN Shepherd College. Register.
