A carload of cement was received and sold by H. H. Henning.

Al Snow shipped a carload of stock Monday. It rained quite hard in the morning, but Al said he did not care as he as a roof to go under now when he is weighing the stock.

Next week there will be a wedding not far from here. We can give the particulars in about a week’s time.
