the Glasgow Times for more than
thirty-fve years, has leased the

that Mr.. Richardson knows his

The worth of a good, live coun-
ty newspaper to the county in
which it is published, seems to
be a matter of little concern to
many who claim to have a great
desire for the advancement of
their community. The same
may be said of any other line of
business that depends on public
patronage, but while this is true,
yet there are many who back
their faithfully their patronage,
and prove their worth to the

When the Grim Reaper has gath
