Mrs. Sophia Leggett received q
letter from her son, Marvin, the last
of the week stating that he had ar
rived in New York but that he was
going to a, hospital, being injured in a
fall into a plane. The family does not
aeem to think that he was injured by
a plane falling while flying, but rather
as he was experimenting some plane
work on the ground. Lieut.. Liggeti
enlisted in the aviation branch about
a year and a half ago, and has been ir
England for a year or more where he
has been an instructor at one of the
aviation elds.-Bismarck Gazette.
Our old friend, Jos. Ranft, writes
from St. Louis: "Say, Mr.. AXE, ]
thought you knew how to spell my
name, but in last weeks REGIsTEB
you had it Rant in stating that my
daughter got her license in Ironton
and was married in the same ole
church in Pilot Knob where my wife
andI were married fifty years ago
That was her object in going to Iror
county for the license-that she NIGH
be married in the same church house
that her parents had been.n We as
sure Mr.. Ranft that the omission o
the letter I in spelling his daughter'i
name was merely a typographical err
ror, just an oversight. Our best wish
es to the newly married couple anc
to Mr.. Ranft.
