Wm Glenn has his new house almost done. It is suspicious that a bachelor should build a house so quickly.

Council - "There was quite an exciting runaway in town this morning. Bill Glenn and wife came to town and hitched their team in front of the blacksmith shop. While they were in the store the horses broke loose and started for home at a lively rate. Lewis and Bill Winkler mounted a couple of horses that stood at the rack and started to head them off. The boys overtook the team at Kesler's about a mile from town, and managed to stop them. There was a box of eggs in the wagon which were pretty badly mixed up. No damage was done either the team or wagon."
