This is what he w’rote: NOTICE. Edward Manning, 267 Summer St., Worcester, Mass. Burned this town Sept. 30, 1909, and found it no good, the citizens have nothing to eat themselves. Wheatfield, Indiana. Hamlin Smith Sale Went Off In Good Shape Tuesday. A good crowd of anxious bidders attended Hamlin Smith’s sale west of town, Tuesday, and everything offered was sold at a good price. The sale was not a large one and he offered but one horse.
