Hawks, one of the oldest and best known farmers of Bow Creek township, will be pained to hear that he was adjudged of unsound mind in the Probate Court of Phillips county on Monday, November 22nd, by a physician's commission composed of Dr. J. L.

Then the folks fixed them, and petitioned for restoration of the rural free delivery. The department replied that the mail would not be changed back until such time as the roads on the new routes became bad. And they never did get their mail back. ter during the week.
