John O’Connor raised “Old Glory” to half-mast Saturday in honor of William Hoile, formerly of Kniman, who was buried Saturday afternoon near North Manchester.

The Democrat was wrongly informed about the house in Hanging Grove tp., to which Mr. Baker and family of Frankfort were to move, being on the Lawler lands, as stated in Saturday’s Democrat. The house is just across the road from one of the Lawler farms, and is not owned by Mr. Lawler. Mr. Baker has purchased a tract of timber of Mr. Lawler and comes here to clear off same. Miss Grace StoVer, music instructor in the city schools, spent Saturday and Sunday with her mother at Downers Grove, Hl. Miss Ethel Dyer, domestic science teacher, spent Saturday in Chicago. Two other of the lady “peds” spent Saturday afternoon in “Greencastle,” and nearly got stranded in the snowbanks at Monon when coming to the station to take the “Hoosier” home that evening: A. S.. Laßue came up-from Greenfield, Ind., Sunday morning, and reports that Saturday’s snow was equally as heavy there as here. They had some 14 inches of snow on the ground there before this last storm came. Rensselaer people who were in Chicago Saturday afternoon report that the storm there was about the same as Here, so it must have been quite general throughout this section of the country.
