Nate Eldridge, of McCoysburg, is going to move to Monon In. a couple of weeks, where he has secured steady employment as a carpenter. Trains 32, 5 and 6 will stop at McCoysburg Jan. 20th to accommodate passengers who wish to attend the Porter & Howe sale. It will be the largest sale thus far this season and should command a good sized crowd. Mrs. A. Williamson received a telephone message early Wednesday morning, stating that her aged mother at Medaryville was thought to he dying. She left for Medaryville immediately. A letter from Milroy English, a former resident here, but now of Canora, Sask., Canada, states they are having plenty of zero weather up there, and that the mercury runs as low as 85 below. But they work ahead and pay no more attention to the cold than we would here at 3 or 4 degrees below zero. Milroy has bought a threshing outfit, and is threshing grain at the present time. The old English home has been vacant practically ever since they left this state, a few years ago, and is fast becoming run down. It is quite likely they will dispose of the farm here if they decide to remain in the northwest.
