The destruction Of the records in io55 made u necessary to record again and accordingly itWas filed again July 28, 1869, and the second destruc- tion of the court house left it again without record
 In this manner it was held until filed for record again this week. The deed was signed by Charles and Jane Sneed and conveyed the east half of the north west quarter and the northeast quarter of the southwest quarter of section g, township IS, north range 22 west, to their daughter Nancy Collier. The conveyance also included one certain negro girl Lucy about IA years old, the title to whom was warranted and defended. It was warranted also that the negro was sound both in body and mind and to be a slave all her life.
 The deed was executed before A. G. Sneed, judge of the Fourth judicial circuit. The grantors in the deed, Charles Sneed and Jane Sneed, were the great grand parents of our towns man w. L. Sneed. This tract of land was among the very first ever entered in the county, it being in the year 1840.

Grand Revival at New Home

There has been a genuine revival of old-time religion out at New Home, three miles north of Green Forest. A two weeks tent meeting under the direction of County Missionary Rose, assisted by Ed. U. G. Fox and others, closed last Sunday.
 There has been no meeting like it held in that neighborhood for years, not since in eighties when Eld. Gal Mattox was pastor, when fourishing Baptist church was maintained there. During the late revival there were 9 number of professions of faith and probably a score of additions to the lately organized church.
 There was dinner spread on the ground last Sunday that would have done credit to any community in the state, being to some extent repetition of the experience with the loaves and fishes. It was sure enough multi Jude of people that were fed. John Stafford, who is now an old-timer out there, says it was by far the biggest crowd he has ever seen on the creek.
 Following the big feast the ordinance of baptism was administered to seven candidates, which closed the services.
 The people of New Home neighbor- hood say that they received 8 great moral as well as spiritual uplift by this meeting, as the behavior was excellent throughout and the greatest of har- mony prevailed during the meeting.

Every ything is rapidly shaping itself for the commencement of work on the Green Forest-Denver road, which will begin October 3, and be continued from day to day, it is hoped, until a smooth highway is built between Green For est and our neighbor burg on Long Creek.

 It is stated that Denver people are enthusiastic on the proposition and it is believed they will be out en mass to take care of their end of the bargain. This is proposition where one waiting for another will not work. It is deal where every person interested is ex- pected to do his whole duty regardless of what the other fellow does This is the only plan on earth that will build roads on the donation plan.
 If there is any fall down on the Den yer road (and there is not going to bel do not let any part of the responsibility of failure be traceable to you.

Of the defects that are now causing the people of Carroll county worry and expense over their land titles is directly due to the work of incompetent Notaries and Justices of the Peace.
 Not one man in twenty who sets himself up as @ convey ancer knows anything about how to comply with the tech nical requirements of the law in the preparation and eXecu- tion of instruments effecting land titles.

MANY IMPROVEMENTS
RECOMMENDED FOR Ward !.
COUNTY POOR farm

and consumes nearly double the
amount of fuel that it should with
very unsatisfactory results. The
steam pipes should be covered. Also
a good sized cistern would be great
convenience.
We recommend that a woman be
employed to take care OF the small
children and helpless old people.
There is q good sized barn on the
court house grounds which seems TO
be OF httle or no uss to the county,
and we recommend the removal CT
this building to the poor farm, where
It could be changed into COW barn.
We understand this can be done for
about $3.50 90.
4 school is situated within 800 or
400 feet of the poor farm buildings IN
which school is held only for few
months of the year. We respectfully
recommend that the board of county
commissioners try to make some ar
rangements with the township 80 that
school may be held In this building
for seven or eight months in the year.
We believe this should be done, az
we hold that there is moral respon.
sibility resting upon the county 10
educate to an extent the orphan chill
dren that the county is bound to sup
port.
A rubber mating should be put on
the hall floors and on the stairs. This
would not only save great deal
of wear on the stairs and halls, but
would mitigate the noise the children
make in going through the house.
We recommend that the farm
should be fenced and some cross fence
built later on so that the smaller fields
can be used for diversified farming.
Also, we recommend that twenty acres
should be plowed especially deep this
fall and sown to alfalfa in order to
furnish hay for the animals neces-
A surface we'll for drinking water
sary 20 be kept on the place.
should be dug, as the deep we'll at
the place cannot be used for drinking
purposes.
A woven wire fence should be put
around the house, and lawn grass
sown in the yord. Also the walks
around the house should be gravelled.
The lighting plant purchased when
the building was opened is a failure
and a new and better plant should be
installed without delay. A proper
lighting plant would mitigate to
large extent the possibility Of fire on
the premises.
We recommend the retention OF
Ava!d Wendt as superintendent and
his wife as matron, for we repeat that
under the lack Of conveniences mani
tested, they are doing we'll.
Respectfully submitted,

Ward county has expended many
thousands of dollars on the poor farm.
The committee recommends that
many additional improvements be
made. Ward county will find that the
poor farm is very expensive propo :
sition unless some method can be
employed to make it self sustaining.
The following report has been made
to the commissioners by the commit
tee:
To the Honorable Board Of County
Commissioners for Ward County.
Gentlemen: The board appointed
BY you to visit and report upon the
county poor farm begs leave to sub
NIT the following:
On Saturday. August 18th, We went
% the farm and found all things con-
Edered, everything in fairly good
shape. We found there were twenty.
seven people cared for. Seventeen
o. these are small children, and the
others are mostly cripples invalids
md dtrelects, most e whom demand .
great deal OF care and attention in or.
de that they may at all live in fair.
" comfortable way.
!Avald Wendt and Mrs. Wendt, his
wife. the superintendent and matron
Of the poor farm, are doing as well
as can be expected considering the
lack of conveniences along many
lines. We find that there are great
many improvements that should be
made.
First, the pumping system for sup.
plying water is Inadequate and there
should be new and much larger
pump supplied.
A root house large enough to hold
all the vegetables necessary should be
constructed, and it should be so ar
ranged that a small stove could be
used in it during the coolest weather.
The cess pool is within so feet OF
the buildings, and this should be ex-
tended to the coulee about 800 fee.

provement we deem quite imperative.
The granary used at present is too
small but might be turned into a
building in which to grind feed, and
We recommend the purchase of a gas.
cline engine and feed grinder large
enough to grind the feed used for the
stock necessary on the place.
The basement of the house proper
was never completed. 1t is open and
is entirely too small for the building,

should be completed and new and
larger boiler installed, having more
radiation, as the present heating plant
