We extend ta the son and other relatives Our sincene sympathy. We were criticized recently that we did not give a blast ta the hoodlums who did extensive dam- age ta many of aur summer homes in the village and also broke into the L.O.L. Hall. We bave found out and were glad ta hear that the cuiprits were not local chaps. The owners af these properties are non-residents now, and have no local police protection. They pay taxes toward aur schoois, noads, ligbts, etc., leave cansiderable money in the community, are iaw abiding and deserve ta have their homes unmolested from sucb wandering culprits.
