Morgan County Democrat. (McConnelsville, Ohio) 1886-1943, 1942-06-04
ROLLING CORRESPONDENT

r
AS we read of the marriage of
Herschel '.Dick" Mcconnell, and
Miss Viva Hall, our mind went back
through the years when we as Meigs
correspondent, told of the formers
arrival; of his sickness as he un-
derwent the various illnesses to
which children are heir, and
some that he picked up. How he
went through school, working
through vacations, then when he
had completed high school how he
accepted job (Which he had asked
for) and stuck. While we have not
been in position to tell of the bride
as we have Of Dick, we know her
well enough to, and think Dick has
used good judgment. May the
sun ever shine on their pathway.
1t looks encouraging when SO
many good Democrats, men compe-
tent and qualified are eager to show
Mr.. Bricker the way to go home.
Amt We Queer?
It seems that if some folks
should hear that asafetida was to
be rationed, they would try
to lay in enough to stink all the
buzzards out of the county.
We learn that 65 soldiers sleep
in the Stockport cemetery. So far
we have been unable to find how
many boys Windsor township has
in the service.
We are sorry that our good
friend jamie McGregor of Bristol
is in very poor health, being con-
fined to her bed quite bit of the
time.
Gerald Gerlach of Bristol filed
his registration papers Friday Of
last week, and the first of this
week went to Cambridge where he
Joined the Marines. From there he
was to go to Cincinnati. He was
not sure where he was to go from
there
Mrs Lucy Roberts, Bristol who
has been in poor health is better.
Frank Ashton Bristol born, but
for many years resident of Nc
Connelsville, went to GAINESVILLE and
perhaps on to Columbus Thursday
of last week to consult specialists
regarding a mafigant growth in
his mouth.
Mr.. and Mrs. Wilmot Carnes
Kennebec Hill, are having two
porches built on their new resi-
dence. Dean Hancher is the carpen-
ter.
Mrs Emmett Woodward who
with her family reside on the S. w.
Scott farm, Bristol township, is re-
ported quite i'll.
A friend who wields pencil
seemed to feel she needed TO ex-
plain a statement she had written
in her section by request. Which
leads us to remark if you have some
thing you are afraid to say to
party of the second part face to
face, you can advertise one inser-
tion for csc, 3times50c.. Be brave, !
or a sport.
We were sorry to learn that man
who has been called prominent In
MS nelShDOfnOOQ cOulO Ialk as un-
patriotic as did that certain man.
We recall the fact that the church
of which he claims membership, |
was badly split, cracked Or some /
thing during the Civil War. The a
foresaid took back what he said, ,
and we feel he will be more careful
hereafter.
Decoration Day
While We for several years lived /;
near a cemetery, this year we are
having better chance to watch
folks placing flowers on the graves
of their loved ones. Early in the
morning we noticed Mrs. Mary JUS
tice, 8S, going and coming from
the cemetery, also young folks.
America will never be conquered.
While we are trying to be care
full not to intrude on our good
Stockport correspondent, we feel
that what we may say regarding
the Memorial service at Stockport
will not be an intrusion. The pro-
gram was fine, of which the cor
