Mr.. and Mrs. George w. Legge, Jr.,
and Mr.. George W. Legge, Sr., left
Oakland on last Thursday for their
new home in Cumberland, located on
Hilltop Drive, one of the recent new
additions and nicely located suburbs
of the Queen City. Their departure
from Oakland is keenly regretted by
their many friends, who, however,
will join The Republican in wishing
them a prosperous future in the city
of their adoption. The senior Mr..
Legge was identified with Oakland as
a business man from 1868 until his
recent retirement from the active
conduct of a mercantile business here
which was successfully operated by
him for more than fifty years.
Prohibition officers are using bit
of camouflage in rounding up law
violators along the Delaware State
line, we notice in the Centreville Rec
ord. Well let the Record tell the
story: rabbit hunters will stand a
slim chance this fall of securing any
liquor from farmers who may have
same in their possession, as the re-
suit of the flying squadron sent out
from Director Elliott's office. Dressed
as gunners, carrying a shot gun and
accompanied by rabbit dog, two
agents early last week arrested Ell
wood Dunlin, charging BIN with hav-
ing liquor illegally"

day. The Republican was visited by
Mr.. Cope while he was in town. A
