BOYHOOD.
T. O.
Hie sister, an interesting old
lady, was the oracle of the neigh-
in household affairs,
all the medicinal herbs do
remedies and could tell you
the exact date of every death
or marriage that had ever
in the circle of her acquaintance.
She also a firm believer in
signs, omens, and the supernatural
generally, and used to relate how
going alone through a field of tall
rye one day she was suddenly con-
fronted by a neighbor who vanish-
ed to her astonishment
and fright, and on reaching home
nervous and excited she was told
in reply to her story that the per-
son she had seen was and had
been confined to his bed over a
week. Now from a person of less
credulity this would have
been received with many grains of
allowance. But aunt Bond was a
truthful, sensible gen-
knew what she was about.
Yet after all she may have been
mistaken. And it has even been
suggested that instead of
a neighbor it might have been toe
shade of some ancient love, this
particular time ard place having
been selected to claim a coveted
kiss she bad refused in the days of
Lang Sync.
In the two story house on the lot
adjoining Mr. Lawrence, Mis.
James Hanrahan, widowed mother
of Wat Hanrahan, Jr., and James
Hanrahan, lived at one time. It

by Mr. Thus. B. Nelson who re-
paired the building and occupied
it with his family. The Whitley
store was considered a desirable
stand for business before the big
bridge was built, which was prob
ably about 1890, and the store
occasionally occupied when the
bridge was repaired, it being

there. He lived the building
and died there, and also his wife, a

Mr. Price had a store
tit the bridge on the street leading
to the river, and kept a handsome
stoic for that day. He did a large
business at one time, particularly
with the ladies, with whom he was
a great favorite, and his memory
