DIXBORO.

Mrs. Henry Wills is improving slowly. 

J. A. Campbell has been on the sick list recently. 

Mr. Henry Hanby is quite sick with the rheumatism. 

Nobody will have to go dry in Dixboro for the next three years. 

A number of children are quite sick of bad colds also some of our older people. 

J. A. Campbell, our genial grocery keeper, is getting better. He had a pretty hard pull of it. 

Rev. Mr. Yager is getting better from the bad attack which he had at the funeral of Wm. Faris's son. 

The funeral of Eugene Fair was held last Friday and was quite largely attended by sympathizing friends of the family. 

Ira Carpenter has sold his farm to Frank Bush and has bought one near Burmingham, he is moving on his new farm. Dixboro will gain one more democratic vote by Franks moving here. 

We are going to have a brand new school house, in the place of the old one, which is the oldest brick school house in the county. Part of the brick and stone for the new house are on the ground. 

Rev. Mr. Yaegar was taken very sick on the morning of the funeral of Eugene Fair. He revived so that he attended the funeral, but was so overcome after the opening prayer, that they were obliged to take him home.

 The funeral of Mis. Phoebe Wead, mother-in-law of James Hamby, was held Saturday. She was in Ann Arbor a week preceding the day of her funeral. She was taken sick Sunday night. About a month before her death she receieved a pension for a son, who had died in the army.
