The LaCygne Weekly Journal Linn County Friday February 10, 1899 Amsterdam, Mo. Miss D. WILKISON has the grip. G.W. BOYER is filling his ice house this week. A little girl of Mr. RALSTON's was quite sick last week. Jesse SPURRIER has returned home after several weeks visit in Iowa. Mrs. G.W. BOYER spent Saturday and Sunday with friends at Merwin. Miss Ethel JACKSON of Butler is visiting her grandparents Grandpa and Grandma TATHWELL who have been very poorly this winter. While hauling hay Monday Bert RALSTON's team became frightened and ran away breaking the wagon but doing no other serious damage. Mrs. S.A. WILLIAMS remained here last week and organized a Good Templars lodge of about thirty-five members with Mrs. A.W. McGREDY, C.T.; Kate McBURNEY, V.T. The cause is a good one and those who have taken part are earnest workers and we hope to see many more join them and do all they can to advance the organization.
