Rensselaer Democrat, Volume 1, Number 4, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 6 May 1898 — Northwest Jordan, [ARTICLE]

Northwest Jordan,

Farmers are very busy preparing to plant their corn. The weather is very favorable for the crops. Klondike seems to have lost its intense interest of late and the war takes its place. Mrs. J. W. Sage is quite ill at the present writing. Sunday school at Union school house 10.30 every Sunday morning. Song services begins at 7 p. m. followed by preaching by Rev. Augsfurger. Hugh Spalding while riding his pony from Foresman Sunday was thrown by its stumbling, and severely hurt, but is some better now.
