HANGING GROVE.

C. F. Lowman went to Michigan Wednesday to look after his farm interests. Gifford Marrs went up to visit his farm near Laura Sunday morning, making the trip on his motorcycle. Mr. and Mrs. W. F. Horton, of Mon-< on, and daughter, Mrs. Foster, of Chicago, took dinner with Mrs. M. A. Rishling Saturday. M. L. Ford shipped two car loads of stock from McCoysburg Thursday night, one car of hogs and one of sheep. Simon Cook accompanied him. Paul Cook, son of Simon Cook, was bitten by Charles Erb’s dog Sunday, through the palm of the hand, inflicting quite an ugly wound. Home mnedies were administered and tor summoned. It is hoped nothing serious will result. Word has been received Jiere by relatives that Mrs. H. E. Bruce, of Crawfordsville, had quite seriously burned her arm and that blood poison was somewhat feared. However, the physician got the case early and may have the danger overcome ere this. Miss Olive Cole received a telegram Sunday morning about 10 o’clock that her grandmother had died at her mother’s home in Rockville. Trustee Geo. Parker was in McCoysburg driving his team, and took her to Rensselaer immediately to catch the noon train south. John Herr is hauling stone and other material for building a new house west of W. R. Willit’s. Russell Willit will occupy the house when completed, as he and his father have rented quite a lot of Mr. Herr’s land for next season. Mr. Herr has been tiling the land out pretty thoroughly this fall and uo doubt it will produce some excellent crops. Two lady evangelists landed in McCoysburg Saturday and preached to a fair sized audience Saturday night and Sunday afternoon. They are Irish ladies and the eldest one claims to have been in the ministry, twelve years. They do not claim any particular creed or denomination, but to present the gospel in the humble manner that the Savior did.
