Jasper County Democrat, Volume 12, Number 100, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 30 March 1910 — WISE OLD UNCLE SAM. [ARTICLE]

WISE OLD UNCLE SAM.

John C. Chilcote, a former well known Rensselaer citizen, was over from Mt. Ayr Friday to attend Capt. Burnham’s funeral. John is -looking exceeding well and is probably 100 pounds lighter than he used to be when here, not weighing now much over 200. He has been living at Mt. Ayr for more than a year now, and has just been appointed census enumerator for Jackson township. Uncle Sam wanted an extra good man for the place, John says, so He chose a democrat.
