Walter Hunt attended meeting at Union Saturday night. Being scarce of news I will give the correspondents a riddle: An old man and a young man were traveling and stopped for lodging. The old man was asked if he had any relatives, he said: "Brothers and sisters have I none, but that man's father (pointing to the young man) is my father's son." IIow many can answer it?
