week came to this place for coal for smithing
purposes. He said there was none in Augusta
orMaysville. No wonder the people of Bracken
have subscribed so liberally to the P. G. Roaf.
FIRE! – The
steam saw and grist mill of Mr. Morris, situated
in the North-eastern part of this county, was
burned on last Friday night. The fire was
discovered about midnight, but too late to save
any portion of it. There is some ecidence that
it was the work of an incendiary.
At the
meeting of the Town Council, on Monday evening,
Jim Gifford applied for and was granted town
license to sell liquor until the first of May.
After this time – 1st of May – Jim
proposes to live a more exemplary life. He is
disgusted with the business and the laws and is
going to quit selling “old fine.”
