It looks as good as a new machine. Fred Is also about recovered from his bumps, but is still a little sore about the lower limbs. William Ralph, of Indianapolis, was here today to look at the Bruce Moffitt land near Fair Oaks with a view of purchasing. Mr. Ralph was a resident of Rensselaer In his boyhood days, having moved from here to Indianapolis about twenty-five years ago and this was his first visit back here. He was very much disappointed at the change that had taken place in the Iroquois river during his absence. During his residence here the dam was in existence above Judge Thompson’s residence, with the mill and mill race. He spent much time in fishing and hunting along the river and he says iti makes him heartsick to see the change that has taken place in the river channel. Mr. Ralph has prospered since leaving Rensselaer and now owns farms in Illinois and is engaged in the artificial ice manufacturing business at Indianapolis and points in Illinois. His fsther, who was in the shoe making business here, is still living, as Is his brother Tom. Both are residents of Indianapolis.
