But the best qualifications he possessed and one that will always remain green in the memory of his acquaintances was his kindness and reverence toward his parents and should you read the epitaph that he was a kind and dutiful son it would not be a falsehood.

Baily and Stubbs, the two light- ning rod men who were arrested in Nevada Friday evening upon infor- mation from Clinton officers, were taken back to Clinton Saturday—as previously announced in the Mail— and lodged in jail. The Clinton Democrat says the men agreed to rod Farmer J. W. Bailey's barn, do- nating 110 feet of rod and doing the work for $3.50, as an advertiee ment of their work. Bailey accepted the terms, and signed a contract, as he believed to that effect. But later he found that the contract was ale | together different from what he had expected, and the rod men present- {ed him with a bill for $153 75, which Mr. Bailey refused to pay. War- | rants were sworn out for the agents and they skipped out coming to Ne- vada, where they were arrested as above stated. Another man was im= plicated with the rod men but he succeeded in making his escape. | The note given by Bailey cannot be found, and it is supposed to be in the hands of an innocent purchaser. | Jake McMillan another farmer of | Henry township, was also the vic- | tim of these same men to the extent of $165, which he paid.—Nevada Mail.
