W. G. Blake, who drove his new
Buick to Williams Bay, Wisconsin, last
week, was obliged to leave the ma
chine in Illinois, and return home by
train last Friday afternoon on ac-
count of the muddy roads. Will says
he drove through about 80 miles OF
muddy roads going to Williams Bay,
and decided to not try the same stunt
on his return trip. Farmers in parts
of Delaware county would like to see
really muddy roads. .l,..,.."',,, ~
y. Burbridge Of Dubuque, former
Delaware county boy, was taken to
Rochester, Minnesota, last week, with
the expectation of submitting to an
. operation for bladder trouble. We
are informed that his condition was
considered too critical to attempt an
operation. We hope that some remedy
} may be found to give Mr.. Zurbridge re-
lief and that he may be spared to his
family for years to come. For the past
for years to come. During the past
few years he has been a street car coM
ductor in the Key City, and now that
, he has been so severely afflicted is g
source of genuine regret.
