GROVERTOWNi ' h A short spell of sleighing was experienced hero the latter part of last i ( : week and fore part of this; it was not ’ । a very severe one how ever. ] Mrs. Seth Guymon sj t front Fii day last until Monday, siting friends । in Plymouth.

O'Bih u of the Plymouth office. We wonder what the religious ele- ; ment of our town is made of to allow 1 such proceedings us tuts been going on : at our so-called sujoon for the last two weeks or more. Such brawls and carousals should bo suppressed somehow and in the absence of legal authority it would fall to the church to take action against the perpetrators; but lo! it remains perfectly quiet, in fact, hardly ’expresses indignation. Now the I worldly element of our town, that ure really law abiding < iHzciix wish to know what the church is for, it not to light and try to suppress wrong doing, and show to them that by theii j daily walk and actions they shall be known as God’s people, but we are compelled to say that Grwertown is very unfortunate in this respect.
