missed death on several &C.

breadth.
1t was only a lucky turn of
the wheel of good fortune that
was not shot the other day
when Sammy Toy was shot
down like a dog.
AS mayor of this place | am
endeavoring to protect society
and the social institutions. In
the fulfllment of this duty | am
exposed to many dangers.
These are hazardous times.
that try mems souls. The liquor
laws are being held in contempt
by the law breaking rough-neck
element of our country.
The Zigzag Hollow, from one
end to the other, is honeycomed
with stagger water factories,
that are turning out thousands of
gallons of real new Wiry edged
mountain dew. Two drinks of
this devils broth will make a
jack rabbit rear up on his hind
legs and slap a bull dog in the
face.
The desperadoes and rifraff of
Fiddlers Green, Bluecut Ruin
and Cad Town tank up on this
murderous stuff ever and anon
and ride over to this town and
ride up and down our streets and
shoot up our city.
They have shot down, judges,
attorny generals, preachers, and
many of our inoffensive citizens.
So | make this demand for a
body guard merely as matter
of self preservation, that | may
live and serve the people of
Yuby Dam.

if possible. but will conscript if

IN MEMORY

Of my dear loving brother,
who departed this life Oct 18th.
On Monday night when Writ
was taken worse, he called me
to his bedside and taking me by
the hand said, "Allene am
going to die, God bless you,
you have been SO good to me.
| have got to co." l ask him
was he alright and he said he
was, saying don't cry, don't
worry about me, | am alright. +"
1t was so hard to give him up,
but the Lord had a better home
up yonder for him. Why such a
jewel should be taken we cannot
tell, we will understand better
by and by. ! can truthfully say
the brightest flower In our home
has been plucked. He cannot
come back to us. but we can go
him. Writ was always kind and
good, always ready to do the
things that was right. He prov
ed his love to us all. He
thought so much of his mother,
our home is so lonely with out
Writ. The vacant place. the
empty chair. we see them day
by day, and Oh it fills our
hearts with care. since our loved
one went away.
His loving sister,
Allene.
