BARGAINS:

known to the earlier residents of this vicinity. He came to Goodland in the early ’7os, bringing with him about $15,000 in cash. He engaged in the hardware and implement business but lost a great deal in bad debts, while in 1878 his store was burned and was a total loss, his insurance expiring only a few hours before the fire. He was a generous, big-hearted man, and trusted many people for goods in the early days of Goodland, who betrayed his confidence and reduced him to rather straightned circumstances in latdr life, although his soldiers'pension kept him from actual want. A good man has gone to his reward, and, judged by his many deeds of kindness, that reward should be of the best.
