[I have no idea what that means! csr] Gilbert Carl has traded his farm in Hulbert township to M. D. Harris for Montana land. W. J.

Cox have been drawn to serve a jurors at the December term of court. Mr. and G. O. Akland, of Winner, visited at the home of Mrs. Aklund's parents, Mr. and Mrs. P. M. Sorensen, last week. Leo Smith, who is extra station agent on the C. & N. W. railway visited here over Sunday with his father, going from here to Broadland. Frank Pitzer and family have taken up their residence on the farm vacated by D. C. Furrer, about two miles southeast of town. The Methodist aid society and the Epworth League will give a chicken pie supper in the Workman hall, Saturday, October 26. You are cordially invited. We are indebted to L. D. Mulvaney for the item relating to theaccident that befell Harry Johnson, of Bates township, which appeared in the News last week. Mrs. L. T. Jarmuth and little son arrived home on Saturday's night passenger from a two month's visit with relations at Peru, Ill., and Jackson, Minn. John Gossett and family departed last week Thursday for Seattle, Wash. They removed from Pearl township and expect to make their home in the above-mentioned city. B. R. Wieland, of Canistota, arrived here Saturday forenoon and visited for a few days at the home of his son and daughter, Mr and Mrs C. H. Banning. He returned home on Tuesday's evening passenger. The Annusal conference of the M E church, which was in session for nearly a week in Yankton, closed last Sunday. The many friends of Rev. J. L. Walsh will be pleased to learn that he has been returned to the St. Lawrence charge for another year. W. H. Hollister, a printer of 35 years experience, who owns a ranch 7 miles southwest of Wessington, was distributing bills for L. E. Millan's sale Saturday He called at the News office to get a smell of printer's ink and set a few lines of type. Bro. Hollister was formerly editor of the Huron Herald. ======================== |
======================== A Narrow Escape H. C. Larson, of Centerville, who was here the latter part of last week, met with
what may be termed a lucky accident. He was in his car on his way out to his daughter's,
Mrs. Arthur Hartmann, Thursday evening, accompanied by his sister-in-law,
Mrs. E. M. Smith, when he attempted to pass around a team ahead of him, in
front of the Methodist church. The grade was narrower than he had figured and
his car "turned turtle" and pinned him under the car, but fortunately, he was
thrown in such a way as to light where the body of the auto is carved out. He and
Mrs. Smith received minor bruises and the wind shield was broken and some part
of the steering wheel was broken, but the damage was not great enough to prevent
him from going on out to his daughter's. ======================== |
======================== SOUTHEAST HAND. John Williams and Charles Logan, whose home is south of LeMars, Iowa, visited Thursday
and Friday of last week with John Greeno and family of Bates township. Mr
Williams has a quarter-section of land in Bates township and another in Hiland
township. Of course he was combining business with pleasure--looking after the
past season's crops and the leasing of his land for next year, also projecting
further improvements on the same, while, renewing acquaintanceship with the Greenos,
he and they, as well as Mr Logan, having been neighbors in Iowa. Rev. O'Connor, the Free Methodist pastor of the shurch of that denomination in Bates township, has returned from the recent conference held in Vienna, this state. He leaves for Kennebec, beyond Chamberlain and west of the Missouri, as spiritual shepherd to another flock. Rev. Donoghue, of Wessington Springs, former presiding elder of this district, replaces Rev. O'Connor for the present. The regular late-year smallpox alarm is again in the land, but the writer doesn't know how much truth there happens to be in the superabundance of rumors afloat. One thing is sure tho; some many in south-east Bates and the near neighborhood of Buffalo and Beadle counties have contracted the ailment that the school taught by Mr Woodruff has closed for at least a week or so. ======================== |
======================== PEARL AND VICINITY. Clint Cole departs for Iowas this week. Born recently, a daughter, to Mr. and Mrs. Wilbur Ellis. Frank Pitzer and family moved out where Dan Furrer lived. Mr. and Mrs. Earl Lindauer were Sunday visitors at Will Thomas's.
