Shields is very busy deliveringcordwood and heading to Manchester. M. Sullivan is now head miller in the Model Roller Mills, of W. Stockwell & Son. Uncle Charley Crawford formerly of Rensselaer, has bought him a farm in Cannon connty. John L. Sullivan has bought a nice farm property and moved upon the same 1 for the present.
