Mo4z;ce

On account of the fact that we
can only accommodate limited
number of buyers and give them
the kind of service and informa-
ton which we guarantee, we
must require all buyers TO tele-
graph us at least three days be-
fore they start, charges to be
paid by us, or they will have to
take their turns with others who
have so arranged in advance.
There will be bargains for all,
but our customers must realize
that we cannt give them the good
service we insist on giving if we
have SIX buyers on one day, as
we have had on the 23rd inst. If
you don't want to wait for several
days or a week here, you must
arrange for time.
Respectfully,

Death of George HARRISON

George Harrison, the we'll know n
Deputy Marshall, died at his home
here on Tuesday night at IL :45
O'Clock. His wife. two children, a
brother and sister, besides members
of his lodge and neighbors were pre-
sent when he passed away. His death
was no surprise, as his protracted ILL
ess, as noted in this paper, held out
no hope for his recovery. He suffered
a third stroke of paralysis some
weeks ago, from the effects of which
he never rallied, lapsing soon into a
state of coma, which was broken at
intervals by brief moments of appa-
rent consciousness.
His throat and vocal cords were ser
iously involved, which prevented his
frequent attempts to talk being aud
lble, and also his ability to take
food. During ali his sickness there
was no complaint from him, and he
seemed to be resigned to the newt
able from the first. Kind friends,
physicians, relatives, brethren in the
Lodge, the Odd Fellows, were in con-
slant attendance and did everything
that human ingenuity or medical
skill could suggest to ease him down.
and make his last bee as soft as pos
sible.
George HARRISON was in his seth
year, apparently strong and health
full man. He is survived by his wi
dow. one daughter, Mrs. F. II.
Combs, of Grundy; one son, DIR. ].
e. HARRISON, of War, w. Va. ; a
brother and sister in .Tazewell, Tho
mas HARRISON and Mrs. Nicewander
and Lawyer Harrison, of War, w.
Va. All these were present during
his last illness and at the time of his
death. He has near relatives in the
county and some in other States.
George HARRISON was well known
in this and adjoining counties for
years, having served as public off,
cer-first as constable, and later as
Deputy Marshall two terms, embrac-
ing a period of at least twenty five
years. He had wide circle of ac-
quainthnces, and had many friends
who will miss his familiar face.
Brief funeral services were held at
the home on yesterday morning, after
W hlch the remains were taken on the
morning tram to the west end of the
county for interment in the Henkle
burial ground, where members of this
family are buried.
Mrs. Harrison and the enire family
are more than grateful to their
friends and neighbors and to the
lodge of Odd Fellows for their kindly
help and sympathy during their great
sorrow.

Needed Road Improvement.

L. G. Cudney, highway commissioner
of Caledonia township, was present at
the Tuesday meeting of the Improve
ment Association and addressed the
members regarding road improvement
through Caledonia township between
this city and Corunna. He stated that
the township voted money last spring
to make state reward road of a mile
and half on Main street between the
two city limits, that the city of Cor
unna had graded the half mile on the
north boundary west from the town
hall and that the township would grade
and gravel from that point to the line
of the New Haven coal mine railroad.
Mr.. Cudney stated that the work would
doubtless cost more than at first antic-
ipated and suggested that donation
from the city to assist in the work
would be greatly appreciated. He also
said that if the franchise was granted
to the Mich. United Traction Co. for
the re- building of it's present line be.
tween the two cities that the road
would be required to place its tracks in
the center of the highway, thus making
it possible to widen the road on each
side 30 that teams would haye less
trouble and better road could be main
tanned. Much interest was manifest in
the remarks of Mr.. Cudney and Presi.
dent Sturtevant was authorized to
name a good roads committee to confer
with Mr.. Cudney and to take the mat
ter up with tne council if feasible
plan could be worked out. The came
committee wonld slso assist in pushing
the adoption OF the county road system
at the election on Aug. 27th.

Ann Arbor Railroad and Milling Com-
pany Settle Suit.

The last obstacle in the way of the
erection of new Ann ArDor ststion in
this city is out of the way-the suit
brought by the railroad company to
condemn the lease for the grounds &C.
cupied by the Michigan Milling Co.
having been settled and discontinued.
BY the terms of the settlement the Ann
Arbor agrees to remove the plant of the
Milling Co. to Vernon and this will be
done at an early date. 1t is matter
of regret that the Milling Co. did not
decide to accept one of the sites offered
by the railroad and maintain its mill in
Owosso. s. Q. Pulver represented the
Ann Arbor in the court proceedings 1t
is now possible for the Ann Arbor to
begin work Immediately on the new
depot and office building for which the
contract was let some months ago. We
shall all be pleased to see the work
started.
