Rensselaer Republican, Volume 27, Number 6, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 4 October 1894 — WHEATFIELD. [ARTICLE]

WHEATFIELD.

Crops fine. - Slight frost Sunday night. Hay making has finished for this year. We’re not far behind the times if we do live near the Kankakee. A dance given at Fritze’s Hull last Saturday night proved a success. Everything passed off quiet. This shows one of the improvements since the incorporation of the town. Our marshal shows himself equal to the emejjency and appears fine with his star. Henry C. Dahncke, son of Win. Dahncke, returned home from a trip east last week.. He has been there over a year and reports a pleasant time. He also visited his brother in New York City for a few days. Albert Keen is erect’ng a neat little cottage in the western part of town.

Mr. Win. Bentley, son of S. J. Bentley, has bid us adieu and has departed for his future home in the state of Washington. Wm. M. Miller, wife and child will soon leave us for a journey to Oakland, Cal., where they intend to reside if climate agrees. Mr. R. Smith, of St. John, Ind., has taken his business and occupies his dwelling. Mr. Smith is a good business man and well thought of by all. Everybody is anxious for school to

commence.
