We were much pleased to find Mr. andMrs.

Hemenway and Mr. Nottorf holding the fort in the city. These are some of our most highly esteemed friends. 1 And we wish them abundent success. Messrs.

Hemenway and Nottorf are good and honorable busiuess men, and if any persons can make a business succeed they can. We are not jealous of Dillon or her people. We visited the hardware and postofflce stores, where we were very kindly received. We came home feeling well satisfied with our Banner, which we are very sure will ever con tinue to wave.
