From the Friday, April 15, 1887 Lykens Register newspaper) (Please note, too, that when I posted the first few items to this list, I plucked them randomly from the paper. I then realized that I should have been doing it in a more organized fashion, so I am going through the page column by column now, so there may be repetitions of earlier posts) "CENTRE VIEW LOCALS: Mrs. I.T. ENDERS, of Harrisburg, was the guest of D.D. HELT over Sunday. Mrs. E. looks well and hearty. City life seems to agree with her. and William KOPPENHAVER and H.H. SNYDER are attending school at Elizabethville Seminary. May success crown their efforts. and Last Friday was observed as a holiday by some of our young ladies and gentlemen, who spent the day on the mountain gathering teaberries. The all had a good time."

(I am not related to any of the parties mentioned here, but I thought this might be of some genealogical interest to descendants. From the Friday, April 15, 1887 Lykens Register newspaper) "CENTRE VIEW LOCALS: Rev. S. KUHN preached an interesting Easter sermon last Sunday in MILLER's church. Rev. J. HILLPOT will hold communion service next Sunday in the same church. and Mrs. LUBOLD, wife of Elias LUBOLD, residing about a mile East of Fisherville, died last week and was buried at FETTERHOFF's church. Mr. LUBOLD is grieved very much to give up his wife so suddenly, and the children, who need a mother's care, do not fully comprehend theirloss; yet what God doeth is done well. Mrs. LUBOLD was a sister to D.H., I.P., and J.W. MILLER of this place. and We noticed in last week's Register the remarks of "Carp" in regard to the act repealing the bounty on the red fox. A few words might be added on the subject. We think the repeal of the present law is not right. The claim is made that a considerable sum of money is required to pay this bounty. Well, this may be all, but the money paid for this purpose could not be used to better advantage. The legislators from the country districts should stand by their constituents and maintain the existing law." Lynne
