there On his homestead and looks for

port a fairly profitable years farming

A copy of the C~entralia, (Wash.)News-
Examiner, reached this office On Mon
days mail, telling of the death of Mrs. W.
]. Nelson aged 70 years on the 18th inst,
the deceased being a former we'll known
pioneer resident of this county and
mother of Mrs. Robert Murie. the later
having left Langdon accompanied by
her husband in hopes of arriving at the
bedside before her mother passed away,
but was only able to reach Centralia in
time to attend the funeral, held on Sui
day the 10Th. Mrs. Nelson was a resi-
dent of the Harvey Center settlement in
thisscounty from 1882 until 1890, when
she removed to the state of Washington
| where several of her sons and daughters
had previously located in the Salzer
Valley. The tribute paid to her memory
by the people of Centralia, is a pleasing
testimony to those of the deceased's old
friends who knew her to appreciate her
true worth in the early pioneer days Of
Cavalier county.

terest this week took place Monday
afternoon about one o'clock at the
Presbyterian manse in this city when
Rev. f. j. Hubbard performed the
ceremony which united George S. Ryan
and Miss Nellie Dunford in the holy
bonds of matrimony. Both the Ryan
and Dunford families number among
the early homesteaders of the Harvey
Center neighborhood in this county
and the wedding of Monday afternoon
which had been kept very quiet by the
contracting parties created quite a
lively interest when the. secret got out
Monday. The bride is the third daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Harry Dunford and like
the husband of her choice has lived
here all her life enjoying the esteem OF
a wide acquaintance. Mr.. and Mrs
Ryan took the afternoon train for
Inkster, the farm home of the groom be-
ing near that town.

ed by a total of S732,111.85; loans and
discounts, another important item,
S61l, 481.29. The Langdon banks are

qualified registered voters posted in the
three wards is as follows: First Ward,
liz; Second Ward, s.; Third Ward, 80.
