Reports from Dominic Vassi, the
Italian who WAS shot by a countryman
during a quarrel near the Msyburg
chemical plant last Saturday a week, is to
the effect that he is doing well and has
every chance of recovery from his
dangerous wound. Nothing has been
heard from the man supposed to have
done the shooting, and 1t is probable he
has made a good getaway.
Friends here of Hon. John II.
Robertson of Seattle, Wash, learn with
sincere regret of his severe illness from
his old trouble, sciatic rheumatism. He
was obliged to submit TO an operation a
short time ago, and has since been con-
fined to a hospital in that city. His
physicians believe the treatment he is re-
ceivlng will give him much relief and
may effect a permanent cure from his
painful ailment. We all hope so.

We learn with a good deal of regret
that our community is likely to lose one
of its good citizens as a resident in the
person of w. II. Shaffer, who has occu-
pied the Proper farm at the top of the
German Hill road for several years past.
Mr.. Shatfer has purchased the N. f.
Hoover farm, near Tylersburg, one of the
finest pieces of property in Clarion
county. There are no reservations, the
purchaser taxing over the oil and gas
rights, and the timber, with all OF which
the farm is we'll supplied, there being
several wells on the place producing oil
and gas, and fine growth of timbe
The farm contains ITO acres, is under
good state of cultivation, and the build
ings are in fine condition. Mr.. Shaffer
may not move before another year, de-
pending on circumstances, and we hope
he will not. He ls too good citizen to
lose from our community.
