The LaCygne Weekly Journal Linn County Friday April 22, 1898 I.N. CROW can safely say this summer that there are no flies on him. And why so? He has just finished enclosing his front porch with screen wire which will make it veyr pleasant during the summer months. Last week H.W. ROCKWOOD moved his family form this place to Parker where Mr. Rockwood is running the Blaker yard. They have been residents of LaCygne for a long time and everyone was sorry to see them leave. Charles DYKES, charged with forgery and raising the value of a check, was arrested last week by an United States marshal for robbing the Centerville postoffice. His partner, Frank PAUL will be arrested on the same charge. O.W. DAVIS of this place an old soldier who done good service for the stars and stripes in the days that tried men's souls, has just completed a small cannon which is not on exhibition at the Linn County Bank. It is perfect in every detail and gives the young generation a chance to see what a real cannon looks like. Ed. ALLEN and family who have been in Pleasanton for some time were Ed was employed as cook at the Commerical house left this week for Montana where they expect to reside. They have the best wishes of LaCygne folks for a prosperous future in the west. George ALLEN who has been serving a jail sentence for assault with the intent to kill was discharged Tuesday by the county commissioners. This leaves the county bastile without a prisoner, a condition it has not been in since it was built. From present appearance Linn county is growing pacific and fast reaching a peace basis.--Republic. Chas WEAVER was kicked on the leg by a mule Thursday afternoon at the Marshall stables. His injury was quite painful. Elder C.M. WICKHAM has been engaged to deliver the baccalaureat sermon to the graduating class of the High school on May 6th.
