GENOA.
From the Leader:

From the Leader:
Peter Peterson from Chicago, and
Charles Peterson from Wyoming both
arrived in the city the last of the
week to visit their Nance and Platte
county relatives.
o. E. Green shipped fourteen head
of his thoroughbred white-face cattle
Tuesday to the Iowa state fair at Des
Moines. From there they will be sent
to the state fair at Lincoln, and from
there to South Dakota, and then to
Sioux City, finishing the circuit at st.
Joseph, Missouri. There are some
dandies i'm the bunch and o. E. ought
to bring home a whole bunch of rib
bons, and here's hoping he does.
The Leader man followed the crowd
and took in the chautauqua at Fuller
ton Sunday and enjoyed ourselves huge
ly except that midnight ride home.
Now while the Leader takes a good
many pokes at our county seat. most
of them in a josh, We want to saying
regard to their chautauqua, that the
business men of that town exhibit
spirit of enterprise, energy and pro-
gressiveness rarely found in any town
of any section or size. That is one
thing they all get behind and push,
and now if they will get behind the
scheme to purchase and park the
grounds and push equally as hard they
will have built a monument to their
public spirit as lasting as time.
News of a surprising character
comes from over at Clarks. We learn
that Hugh Lockard, who is running a
meat m.-rket a, that place, has been
arrested accused for receiving stolen
cattle. 1t is charged that Hugh has
been buying cattle and hogs from a
couple worthless cusses over in that
country. who never possessed money
sufficient to buy sucking pig. and
that he bought them for about half
price. knowing that they Were stolen.
He finally refused to allow them only
S25 for three cattle and one of then
squealed. This is the report as II
comes to us, but it is hard for Hugh:
Nance county friends to believe thi'
to be he truth i'm the matter, and ar
with holding judgement for furthe
developments.

But it is no more for public use.
The people of this village were un-
pleastanly surprised and shocked last
Friday when the news was spread
around that Mrs. p. F. Doody had died
at the home of her sister-in-law, Mrs.
r. w. Perkinson. She had been in
failing health a number of years and
had come here from her home in Chey-
enne just eleven days prior to her
death in the hope that the change
would be beneficial. Although she had
been in poor health for years her
death, which was caused from heart
trouble, was unexpected. Her hus-
band and two eldest sons were unable
to reach here until the following day.
Mrs. Doody, whose maiden name was
Mary Whalen, was born in ireland
April 6, 1868. She immigratd to
this country in 1883 and settled in
Illinois, where she remained until
1885 when she came to Platte county.
She was united in marriage to P. F.
Doody June II, 1889. They con-
tinued to make Platte county their
home until 1897, when they moved
to Cheyenne, Wyoming, where they
have since resided. Her husband and
four children are left to mourn the loss
of q devoted wife and mother. Will
liam, Charles, Kittie and John are the
names of the children. The funeral
occurred Sunday afternoon at two
O clock from St. Joseph's church. Rev.
Cyria conducting the services.
