Evening Republican, Volume 22, Number 125, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 28 May 1919 — BEG PARDON. [ARTICLE]

BEG PARDON.

Lem Griggs is mowing the court house lawn. Len mowed it several weeks ago, 'at which time the Republican gave the credit to Charles Morlan. Mr. Griggs was greatly incensed over what appeared as an intentional slight and proceeded to tell us all about it, which is the reason we are so hasty in making announcement of Len’s achievement this time. We don’t blame Mr. Griggs for feeling slighted. If we mowed a plot of ground as large as hell’s half acre, we’d want honorable mention, too. But, don’t worry, we’re not going to mow it even though we would get our name in 14-point Gothic. We’ll let Len do the mowing.
