Another Township Officer Tenders His Resignation.

George H. May, assesor of Carpenter township, was in Rensselaer today, Thursday, and tendered his resignation to Auditor Hammdnd. Mr. May found that the duties of the office were a serious drawback to his management of 'his farm. Resignations of township trustees and assessors have taken place for the same reason in a number of surrounding counties during recent weeks. It is probable that John W. helps, of Remington, will be appointed as Mr. May’s successor. Owing to the condition of my health It has become necessary for me to give up nearly all my work in Mrs. Green’s bakery, and must now turn my attention to some other kind of employment By trade I am a carpenter, but my physical condition will prevent my attempting anything but light carpenter work. I can, however, repair furniture, sharpen edge tools, file saws and fix many things that need rbpairlqg about your house Satisfaction guaranteed. If you have any furniture to dispose of give me a call; perhaps I can use it J. P. Green, South Weston Street near Rutaen. Phone 477.
