F., of Barry, made us a pleasant call Monday. Gilmer - Miss LIzzie was over from Hannibal visiting relatives and friends one day last week. Casal - Messrs. Dr. F. M. and Mason Foster returned from their Florida trip last week and speak very highly of the eli_______ quite th reverse of everything else down there. Dow - Master Harry, only child of Mr. and Mrs. Aug Dow has been quite ill for several days with a high fever, which, it was feared, would prove fatal, but we are happy to note that he is steadily improving. Bowman - Mr. Fred and Miss Maggie Scanland were married at the residence of the bride's parents Mr. and Mrs. F. M. Scanland last Thursday evening, and are now nicely located in the house formerly occupied by Fred's parents. They have the best wishes of the Democrat for a long and happy married life. Fourteen out of twenty-four committeemen were present at the meeting Monday. New Hope is seen occationally on our streets now and he is being moved to be put in condition. Two or three candidates didn't think the meeting Monday good electioneering grounds and sought other pastures. The McGibney's at the Opera house last Wednesday evening drew a large house and the Baptist church, in whose interest they came, is some $35 ahead. Good enough. A good many of "the boys" are still shaking in their boots, notwithstanding the Grand Jury has adjourned. It is the other 'pureedances' that interests them now. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ NewspaperAbstracts.com - Finding our ancestors in the news! TM http://www.NewspaperAbstracts.com
