ATTORNEY OFFERS FREE LAND

Patrick O’Donnell, attorney of Chicago, formerly of Delphi, has offered his 200-acre farm in Carroll county to the government during the war.

O’Donnell not only made the offer of the land but agreed to provide tractors for plowing the soil, other necessary farm implements and the use of his farmhouse by the laborers.
