DIED--At his residence, in this town, sn<t- (tenly on Snn<lav, Nov. S8th, 1880, MlCHAKL SUTTON, ageit 71 years. Hr. Sutton had been feeling badly for several days, but was around all the time until Friday'aftei noon, at which time a doctor was sent for, but as It proved he was beyond the power of medicine.as he sank rapidly, dying on Sunday at half past twelve, only about tliirtv-slx hours from the time he first took to his bed. We believe the doc­ tor pronounced it paralysis. Mr. Sutton came f rom Ireland to this country in 1837, and to the town of Mo- Henry in 1839. where lie has resided ever since. He was one of the first Irishmen who settled in this town,and is consequently one of its oldest citi­ zens, and was well and favorably known by both old and yuung, aud ^all speak of him in the • higfiest terms of praise as a straight-forward, upright uiau and citizen, who ever stood ready to help a brother in distress and prac­ tice the golden rule, do to others as he would like others to do to him. "" He raised a family of five boy# and three girls, three bo3*s and two girls of whom survive him. His wife died in June last. The funeral was held from the Cath­ olic Church. Iu this village, on Tuesday aud was attended bv a large concourse of relatives aud friends. WOOD8TOCK. ^EDITOR PLA.INDRAI.ER:--The" winter weather hangs steadily on and. the weather prophets continue to prov* their fallibility In their profession. But now that winter Is upon w», we do not §ee that many would he pleased or bettered by a change. It certainly Is as pleasant as It could well be and have it winter. The roads are In ex­ ceedingly fine condition, and while there are some brancheis of farm work not up with the seasoij. there are other branches necessary to be done that can be performed to better advantage un­ der present circumstances than when the weather is wanner and the roads less passible. In passing through farming districts we noticed some large fields of corn unhusked, fconae in the shock aud some ;on the hill. - We hope the flue condition of roads and weather will continue till after the annual meeting of our Agricultural Board, which happens on Monday the 6th of December, when the " officers of t|ie»Board are to be elected. Now a^ e very man, woman or child who pur«" chased a fifty cent ticket at onr last fair is entitled to one vote we see no reason why there should not be a full attendance, and an active part taken in the selection of proper persons to take charge and management of - the* affairs of the Board tor the coming; year. Live men and wouien are need­ ed who will devote time and ability to the enterprise. It should be the ptlde of every citizen of our count}' to see to It that a proper selection of officers is made, and when so sel tcted, to aee to it that thf^: are seconded and e'neour- aged in making our fairs a grand suc­ cess. It is no light task they (iiave to perform, ami work as best they may iu the Interests of the Board, there are critics'who would censure them lor the mere sake of criticising, though everything was being dons that could be done tending toward success. We hope to see our court room filled by ail such as arc interested Iu keeping up the credit of the county in maintain­ ing one of the best agricultural boards in the Stsite. Mrs. A. R. Murphy was buried on rhanksgiving day. She had been suf­ fering for many months, Tvithout hopes of recovery, and her decease was not an unexpected event. She leaves her be­ reaved husband who has been unceas­ ing fn his efiorts to relieve her sufier- • iigs, and five interesting children be­ sides an extensive line of relatives and fiTemU to mourn her eariy demise. We remember the deceased rn«ijj| par­ ticularly as an efficient teacher attd ^au active member of onr Teachers" lusli- 'tUtes, when we had the honor ^ef 'su­ perintending the schools of the Cf^Sntv,, and in common with the coin|nnfflty tender our sympathy to the bereaved family aud mourning friends. Tour article iu regard to the death of the unknown man at or near Johns- burg, has started nffiny queries and cri t icisins coiu-ejjiing. thfl .i'mi""3* Among the queries we hear it asked --Why were the jurymen all. or nearly all, chosen from the families of, and in fact, the very men upon whose prem­ ises th« body was found?. Why was the body ordered to be buried at once, what was the need of haste ? The weather was cold and the b<Mty eonid be kept for days ami uveiijj^ceks with­ out danger of decay. I* it not the <,'oroner's duty in all-Mich cases to give all the time aud attention needful to the furtherance uf justice and the fer­ reting out ol mysteries? If there are conflicting reports in regard to blood aud bruises on the body by keeping the body a reasonable time community would satisfy itself which were tiue aud which false. Does not the very dispatch iu holding the Inquest and burving ttie body rather add to the mystery than clear it up? Is it not the object of inquests to clear up rath­ er than increase the mystery? These and many other interrogatories have been uttered iu our hearing and we jo" them down as a matter that seem* fo imerest the public aud not original matter with ourself. ^ We will inake one more edort to lo­ cate John Young, and if he changes again before this article reaches your readers we will apply for an injunction or mandamus, or something else to hold him till we have time to write and have read the next article.

For several drtys Alexander & nyde have been busy unpacking huge boxes of Holiday Goods, until, at the present time their store resembles . the dispen­ sing department of Santa Claus princi­ ple head quarters.

Of course the store is crowded with customers and "the boys" are busy and happy. .

As Liberty- ;villc is several niiles away from the regular road it looks as though these round houses were being built for the purpose of taking care of the locomo­ tives that are to ruu aver our long hoped for Air Line.^ If the report of the Hera'd Is au­ thentic It would seem as if the infer­ ence drawn by that paper is correct. Ever since the Chicago, Milwaukee & ttt. Paul bought the old Air Line road bed. great hopes were entertained ttiat it was the intention to build the road at an early day. Seven or eight teauic went south, through Richmond, last Friday, loaded with railroad scrap­ ers, shovels, etc. They never stopped and so could not be quizzed, but it was thought they might be en route to some point ot: the Air Line between here and Chicago to commence work.
