price on the farm so high that IL
would remain permanently in his pos.
session, but no! along comes Roy j.
TRACER, of What Cheer, a few days ago
and proceeds to take Mr.. HendryS
up at his price, so the farm is sold
again, with possession to be given De,
cember 18th. At that time Mr.. and
Mrs. Hendryx and children Harold
and Miss Gladys will move to proper,
ty they have leased in Oskaloosa for
the winter months, but they expect to
secure another farm on which they
will move next spring, and we hope
they will strike a farm in this vicinity
which pleases them, so that they will
come back to this locality to live, and
maybe if they refuse to set a price on
the place they can hold right onto it.
