II is with sadness that we chronicle

1.-TWO weeks ago the statement was pub
1ished in the CHRHNICLE that the authori- |
ties had arrested several persons on the |
charge of selling liquor, and in getting |
the names of those for whom warrants |
had been issued, the Justice-of-the-Peace
inadvertently gave the name of Harry |
Tharp," which has caused Harry F. !
whose name is very similar, much |
and for which the writer is
very sorry. Harry F. Thorpe writes to
the CHRONICLE that this has caused many
of his friends to annoy him with ques-
tions, and that the right name of the
man arrested should have been Howard
Thorpe" ," of Harrington. He also says he
has no dealings with whiskey, not even
for medical purposes, and that he has
been tormented almost to death by fully
one hundred people since the item of
news was printed. As the name as print
ed was not the full name of Mr. Thorpe,
or even the right name, as it was not
spelled as he spells his name, it seems
that some of his friends have been having
fun at his expense. However, we regret
that he has been subjected to so much
and make this correction
gladly so that it may be stopped at once.
