Norman Warner has returned from Indiana Springs at Attica, where he took his invalid wife about 10 days ago to receive the celebrated mud baths. He reports her much improved in health and intends that she shall remain for some time yet. His son Hale left for the springs thi- morning with his wife, who is also a great sufferer from rheumatism, and she will remain with the elder Mrs. Warner and receive treatment. Hale will return Sunday. It was 38 years ago yesterday that Norman Warner bought the blacksmith shop of Tom Dunlap and opened business in Rensselaer, on the bank of the mill race near where Mac Key’s marble shop now stands. The next September he moved across the street into a shop which he built where Bates’ new shop now stands. He has been in continuous business ever since, though it is some years since he left the anvil and devoted his time to the hardware and implement business. His health seems good, and if his wife was well he says he would be reasonably happy and contented, though he has not become rich in all these years of labor. A Fatal Accident. Mrs. Rebecca Wood, widow of the late Samuel Wood, of Barkley township, lost her life by falling from a buggy while crossing the railroad track at the depot just after noon on Tuesday. It appears that the buggy decame uncoupled, allowing the front of the box to fall to the ground, pitching Mrs. Wood out upon her head, and probably dislocating the bones of the neck. She was carried into the depot, but was unconscious and survived but a few minutes, being dead before the physician, Dr. English, could reach her. Justice W. K. Churchill conducted a short inquest and the body was taken to the home of her daughter, 'Mrs. Norman, but a few blocks distant. Mrs. Wood was 61 years old. She leaves 9 grown children. The funeral will take Slaoe on Friday at 11 A. M.. at brushwood church, Union township, Rev. J. L. Brady officiating. it i i tv’W-p yv yv t 5 REAL ESTATE. 3 B unk Foltz to Charles H Mullaney.
