Wolf, of Locust Grove township, were business visitors in Sidney Wednesday, and were getting some administration papers on the estate of George Wolf an old resident, having lived there since 1871, who died about a week ago. Mr. Thayer being a brother-in-law of Mr. Wolf. Mr. Thayer tells us that the farmers are well pleased with the rural mail routes and that nearly every family in the township gets their mail that way. One thing they want is to have the telephone company extend their lines down as far as the old High Creek postoffice. There is a store located there, and it would be a good place for a telephone. Mr. Thayer says the Tabor Company have a line within three miles of this store. It looks as though this company should investigatge this matter.
