We had long intended to make a
tour Of inspection thru the court
house. There has been persistent
rumors that the county Judge 1ished
30 much last summer that he has
been probate ever since; and
that the new Register Of Deeds has

OF fling chattel mortgages he saws
them. OF course it don't make so
much difference, but the law says
nle. Another thing We had heard
was that the plastering had cracked
in one or two places in the Commis.
sioners room. Those ditch hearings
should be held in the open. Our
court house won't last long II they
aren't.

and humping of head We managed

From there we wandered into

CARD OF THANKS.

Whereas, Immediately after our re-
cent misfortune in which we lost our
building and personal belongings by
fire, the citizens of New London, busi-
1ess men and others; also many resi-
dents of the surrounding country, con-
tributed very generous donations of
money and other things of value, and
inasmuch as we are unable to see each
of our benefactors personally, to thank
them, we take this method of express
ing our sincere appreciation of what
was done for us. We are truly CRATE
full not only for the contributions, but
also for the sympathy and friendliness
shown US. We extend to one and all
our heartfelt thanks.
